1 Taking better pictures/videos

Use the flash when you take pictures at night, indoors, or outdoors in heavy shadows.

Flash modes		Flash fires
	Auto	When the lighting conditions require it.
	Fill	Every time you take a picture, regardless of the lighting conditions. Use when the subject is in shadow or is "backlit" (when the light is behind the subject). In low light, hold the camera steady or use a tripod.
	Red-eye	If Red-eye Pre-flash is turned off: The flash fires once and the camera automatically corrects red-eye in the picture.	If Red-eye Pre-flash is turned on: The flash fires once so the eyes become accustomed to the flash, then fires again when the picture is taken.
	Off	Never.
