2 Taking Pictures
Using the Flash
Use the flash when you take pictures at night, indoors, or outdoors in heavy shadows. Flash is effective between 1.6-16.7 ft (0.5-5.1 m) in Wide angle and between 2.5-8.5 ft (0.75-2.6 m) in Telephoto.
The flash setting can be changed in any Still mode. The default flash setting is restored when you exit the mode or turn off the camera (see Flash Settings In Each Mode).
Turning On the Flash

Press the  button repeatedly to scroll through the flash options. |

The active flash icon is displayed in the camera screen status area (Camera Screen Icons).

Auto* (default)—flash fires when the lighting conditions require it. 
Off—flash never fires. 
Fill—flash fires every time you take a picture, regardless of the lighting conditions. 
Red-eye*—flash fires once so the subject's eyes become accustomed to the flash, then fires again when the picture is taken. (If the
lighting conditions require flash but do not require Red-eye reduction, the flash may fire only once.) * The flash may fire, even in bright outdoor conditions, if the background is brighter than your subject.
Flash Settings In Each Mode
For the best possible pictures, flash settings are pre-set for each picture taking mode.
