Precautions when Using Flash

•Make sure that you do not touch or block the flash or the

exposure sensor with your fingers. Doing so can soil these

components and interfere with correct flash operation.

•Flash is best used for distances within the range of about

0.5 meters to 3.5 meters (fully open aperture). Flash does

not work well outside this range.

•Depending on operating conditions (type of batteries being

used, temperature, etc. ), it may take up to 40 seconds for

the flash unit to charge.

•Flash is disabled in the Continuous Mode, AEB Mode, and

Movie Mode. Disabled flash is indicated by (Flash Off)

on the monitor screen (pages E-88, 89, 93).

•The flash unit does not charge when battery power is too

low to charge the flash. The (Flash Off) indicator ap-

pears in order to warn you that the flash will not fire cor-

rectly, which may affect exposure of the image. Replace

batteries as soon as possible when this happens.

•Red-eye reduction may not work well when the camera

is not pointed directly at the subject or when the subject is

far from the camera.

•White balance is fixed while the flash is being used, so sun-

light, fluorescent lighting, or other sources of illumination in

the immediate area may affect the coloring of the recorded

image.
