BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
• When recording with the flash turned off ( ) while
available lighting is dim, mount the camera on a tripod.
Recording images under dim lighting without the flash can
cause digital noise, which makes images appear coarse.
• When red-eye reduction ( ) is selected, flash intensity
is adjusted automatically in accordance with the
exposure. The flash may not fire at all when the subject is
brightly lit.
• Using flash in combination with another light source
(daylight, fluorescent light, etc.) can result in abnormal
image colors.
Using the Self-timer
The self-timer lets you select either a 2-second or 10-
second delay of the shutter release after you press the
shutter button. A Triple Self-timer feature lets you perform
three consecutive self-timer operations to record three
images.
