NOTES
The practical range of the flash is approx. 1 to
2 m (3.3 to 6.6 ft.). The range depends on the
recording conditions.
The range of the flash decreases in
continuous shooting mode.
For the red-eye reduction to be effective, the
subject needs to look at the assist lamp. The
degree of reduction depends on the distance
and on each individual.
The flash will not fire in the following cases:
- When you manually adjust the exposure in
(auto) or (red-eye reduction) mode.
- During auto exposure bracketing.
- In the [ FIREWORKS] recording program.
The flash mode cannot be selected when the
exposure is locked.
We recommend not using the flash
while the optional Wide-converter is attached;
its shadow can appear on the screen.
About the AF-Assist Lamp:
While you press
halfway, if the subject is too dark the
assist lamp may light up briefly in order to
enable the camcorder to focus more accurately
(AF-assist lamp). You can also set [AF AST
LAMP] to [ OFF] so the assist lamp does
not light up.
- The camcorder may not be able to focus even
if the AF-assist lamp is on.
- The brightness of the AF-assist lamp could be
an inconvenience. Consider turning it off in
public places such as restaurants or theaters.
