8 Features The programmed flash Every time you take a picture, indoors or outdoors , your camera blends light from the scene with just enough flash to provide the right lighting for the best possible picture.

10 Features Bac kgrounds too dark? If the bac k ground of a flash picture is too dark but your subject is well illuminated (picture 12), the bac kground is too far away .
