Unexpected results when
flash set to V (auto with
red-eye reduction).
When taking pictures with V (auto with red-eye
reduction), or when taking pictures with Night portrait
(either in easy auto mode or the Night portrait scene
mode) and the fill flash with slow sync and red-eye
reduction is used, red-eye reduction may be applied, in rare
cases, to areas not affected by red-eye. Use auto mode or
any scene mode other than Night portrait, and change
the flash mode to any setting other than V (auto with
red-eye reduction) and try taking a picture again.
Skin tones are not softened.
• In some shooting conditions, facial skin tones may
not be smoothed.
• Use Skin softening in the playback menu for
images containing four or more faces.

It may take more time to save images in the following
situations.

such as when shooting in a dark environment
• When the flash mode is set to V (auto with red-

A ring-shaped belt or
rainbow-colored stripe
appears in the monitor or
images.
When shooting with backlighting or when a very
strong light source (such as sunlight) is in the frame, a
ring-shaped belt or rainbow-colored stripe (ghosting)
may occur. Change the position of the light source, or
frame the picture so that the light source does not
enter the frame and try again.
