Solusi

In shooting modes ( [

], [

] ) the default setting is [

] (Auto flash) and the camera automatically judges the shooting environment to determine whether the built-in flash fires or not. Therefore, the built-in flash may automatically fire in low-light environments even if you do not want to use it.

To prevent the built-in flash from firing automatically, change the shooting mode, or press the [

] button to change the flash mode to [Flash off].

For more information on the flash settings that can be made in each shooting mode, please refer to the table below.

IMPORTANT

The flash cannot be set to [Flash off] in [ ] mode.
The position and shape of the operation buttons may differ depending on the model you use.

1. Set the camera’s power switch to [ON].

2. Set the camera to [

], [

], or [

] mode.

3. Press the [

] button to display the Quick Control screen. (The setting screen for [

] is shown in the example images below.)

4. Press the [

], [

] keys to select [

] (Auto flash), or [

](Flash on).

5. Turn the [

] dial to select [

] (Flash off).

The possible flash settings for individual shooting modes are shown in the table below.
