The flash does not fire. (p. 34)
Fires regardless of available light. (p. 35) When you want to light the subject in the foreground

Notes:
All other modes except AUTO­S mode will return to the AUTO
mode when the lens barrier is closed. When the camera is
set to the AUTO-S mode, it will return to AUTO-S when the
lens barrier is closed and re­opened.
In the AUTO, AUTO-S Flash,
and modes, the flash
strength is automatically
controlled to prevent pictures from being overexposed even when the subjects are close.
31
Page 32

AUTO (Auto Flash)

In the Auto Flash mode, the flash will fire automatically in low-light and backlight conditions.
Notes:
• While the flash is still charging
and the flash indicator (orange) is blinking, the shutter will not release. It takes about 4
seconds after the film is
advanced to recharge the
flash. (at normal temperature
with a new battery)
• In some situations such as when the subject is too small,
occasionally the flash may not
fire automatically, even in
backlight. (This is more likely to occur with telephoto.) If this
occurs, use the FILL-IN mode.
Make sure
The orange lamp in the upper right of the viewfinder lights when the shutter release button is depressed halfway. This indi­cates the flash is fully charged.

AUTO-S (Red-Eye Reducing Flash)

Significantly reduces the phenomenon of "red-eye" (when a subject's eyes appear red).
In the Auto-S Flash mode, the camera will emit a series of low-power pre-flashss before the regular flash. This makes the subjects' pupils contract, significantly reducing red-eye. Except for the pre-flashes, this mode is the same as the Auto Flash mode.
Note:
Red-eye reduction may not
be effective with some
individuals or if:

OFF (Flash Override)

When you don't want the flash to fire.
In the Flash-OFF mode, the
flash does not fire even in
low-light conditions. Use this mode in situations where
flash photography is not
desired or is prohibited.
34
Note: Since a slow shutter speed (down to 4 seconds) is automatically selected
in low-light situations, the use of a
tripod is recommended to prevent blurred pictures caused by shaking the camera in this type of situation.

FILL-IN (Forced Activation)

When you want to fire the flash every shot.
In the FILL-IN Flash mode,
the flash fires regardless of available light. This mode can
be used to brighten up a

Page 46

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q: How long will the battery last? A: If you use 24-exposure rolls of film and use
the flash on half of all your pictures, a new 3
V lithium battery (DL123A/CR123A) will last
for 12 or more rolls of film. If you do not use
the flash and zoom very often, the battery will last much longer.
Q: How should I clean the lens?
A: Wipe the lens gently with a soft, clean cloth
that has been moistened with a small amount of lens cleaning fluid.
Q: Can I use film that is not DX-coded?
A: Yes, but only ISO 100 film.
Q: When does the camera measure and set
the exposure?
A: When the shutter release button is
depressed halfway, the camera measures
46
both the exposure and focus and locks them
as long as the shutter release button remains halfway depressed.
Q: Why did my camera make a loud noise and
retract the lens right after I replaced the battery?
A: Because you replaced the battery while the
lens barrier was open. Be sure to close it before replacing the battery.
Q: The flash gets hot.
A: If the flash is used continuously, it may
become hot. If this happens, stop using the
camera for a while.
Q: There's a click if I press the zoom lever after
rolling up the film.
A: It's just the sound of the gears changing,
and is quite normal.
