flashlight never works even in a dark place.
Therefore, select this mode for taking pictures in such a place as use of
flashlight is forbidden (art museum, etc.) and for taking pictures of
nightscape.
* When taking pictures without flash in a dark place or at night, it is ad-
vised to use a tripod to avoid camera shake because the shutter speed
is automatically set considerably slow in such a situation.
* If a moving object is shot, the picture comes out badly as the object
blurs.
