Unexpected results
when flash set to V

When taking images with V (auto with red-
eye reduction), In-Camera Red Eye Fix may be
applied to areas not affected by red-eye in
rare cases. Use any shooting mode other than
Night portrait, and change the flash mode
to any setting other than V (auto with red-
eye reduction) and try taking an image again.
Skin tones are not
softened.
• In some shooting conditions, facial skin
tones may not be softened.
• For images containing four or more faces,
try using the Skin softening effect in
Glamour retouch in the playback menu.
