Flash off
When you do not want to use the flash,
especially indoors where flash is
prohibited or capture the ambiance of
existing light, use the flash-off feature.
Use a tripod or place the camera on
another firm support, and use high-
speed film because the shutter speed in
these situations will most likely be slow.
1. Completely lift up the lens cover/
flash (3) to uncover the lens (7)
and to turn on the camera.
2. Repeatedly press the flash-mode
button (15) until the desired
indicator(s) for auto flash without red-
eye reduction (indicator [40]), auto
flash with red-eye reduction
(indicators [40] & [35]), fill flash
(indicator [41]), fill flash with red-eye
reduction (indicators [41] & [35]) or
flash off (indicator [28]) appear on the
LCD panel (13).
3. Frame your subject within the
viewfinder eyepiece (12).

4. Partially depress the shutter
OFF
button (1). When the flash/camera-
ready lamp (11) glows green, fully
depress the shutter button to take
the picture.
The fill-flash and flash-off modes
cancel when you turn off the camera,
select a different flash mode, or when
the camera powers down. The auto-
flash modes remain selected in
these instances.
