Red-eye Reduction
This camera uses advanced red-eye reduction (“In-Camera Red-Eye Fix”).
To reduce red-eye, a series of low-intensity pre-flashes fire before the main flash. In addition, if the
camera detects red-eye when a picture is taken, the affected area is processed to reduce red-eye
before the picture is saved.
Note the following when shooting:
• Due to the pre-flashes, there is a longer than usual interval between the time the shutter-release
button is pressed and the time the shutter is released.
• More time than usual is required to record pictures.
• Red-eye reduction may not produce the desired results in some situations.
• In extremely rare instances, areas not subject to red-eye may be affected by red-eye reduction
processing; in these cases, choose another flash mode and try again.
