Using the Flash (Super-Intelligent Flash)
When the ash is used, the camera’s Super-Intelligent Flash system instantly analyzes the scene based
on such factors as the brightness of the subject, its position in the frame, and its distance from the
camera. Flash output and sensitivity are adjusted to ensure that the main subject is correctly exposed
while preserving the e ects of ambient background lighting, even in dimly-lit indoor scenes. Use the
ash when lighting is poor, for example when shooting at night or indoors under low light.
To choose a ash mode, press the command dial right (
N) to display the following
options, then rotate the dial or press it left or right to highlight an option and press
MENU/OK to select.
