ash exposure from –2 to +2 stops, in 1/3-stop increments.

] button and
immediately turn the [ ] dial to choose
the compensation level, and then press
the [ ] button.

displayed.
● When there is a risk of overexposure, the camera automatically
adjusts the shutter speed or aperture value for ash shots to
reduce washed-out highlights and shoot at optimal exposure.
However, you can deactivate automatic adjustment of the shutter
speed and aperture value by accessing MENU (
=
31) and
choosing [
5] tab ► [Flash Control] ► [Safety FE] ► [Off].
● You can also congure the ash exposure compensation by
accessing MENU (
=
31) and choosing [ 5] tab ► [Flash
Control] ► [Flash Exp. Comp].
● You can also access the [Built-in Flash Settings] screen (
=
31)
as follows (except when an optional external ash is mounted).
- Press and hold the [
] button for at least one second.
- When the ash is up, press the [
] button and immediately
press the [
] button.

Slow Synchro
Fires to illuminate the main subject (such as people) while shooting at a
slower shutter speed to illuminate backgrounds out of ash range.
● In [ ] mode, mount the camera on a tripod or take other
measures to keep it still and prevent camera shake. Additionally,
you should set [IS Mode] to [Off] when using a tripod or other
means to secure the camera (
=
56).
● In [
] mode, even after the ash res, ensure that the main
subject does not move until the shutter sound is nished playing.
Off
For shooting without the ash.
● If a blinking [ ] icon is displayed when you press the shutter button
halfway in camera-shake inducing, low-light conditions, mount the
camera on a tripod or take other measures to keep it still.
● Adjustment is also possible by pressing the [ ] button, touching
the desired option, and then touching it again.
