Unexpected results when
flash set to V (auto with
red-eye reduction).
When taking images with V (auto with red-eye
reduction), or when taking images using fill flash with
slow sync and red-eye reduction in Night portrait
(either in scene auto selector mode or in scene
mode), In-Camera Red Eye Fix may be applied to areas
not affected by red-eye in rare cases. 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 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 the playback menu.
Saving images takes time.
It may take more time to save images in the following situations.
• When the noise reduction function is in operation,
such as when shooting in a dark environment
• When the flash mode is set to V (auto with red-
eye reduction)
• When the skin softening function is applied while shooting
