pose to maintain compliance with product regulations.

ing a person or object. Failure to observe this precau-

Using the flash close to the subject’s eyes could cause
temporary visual impairment. Particular care should
be observed when photographing infants, when the
flash should be no less than one meter (39in.) from
the subject.
