dRed-eye Reduction Flash Mode

Reduce red-eye.

The flash will fire briefly 10 times (pre- flash), then fire again to take the pic- ture.

/This mode is kept even when the power is turned off.

/The AF lamp lights up during the 10 brief flashes (pre-flashes), then goes off when the flash fires. Do not move the camera while AF lamp lights up.

Dealing with Red-eye

When you photograph a person in dim light using the flash, the eye will sometimes appear red in the finished photo. Under low light, the pupils of the eye get bigger for better vision. Red-eye is caused by light from the flash entering the eyes and being reflected back to the lens. Red- eye reduction causes an early flash to fire before the actual picture is taken. This causes the eye to get smaller, reducing this reflection. When the actual flash exposure is made, the degree of reflection is less, thus reducing red-eye.

When using red-eye reduction mode:

/Ask your subject to look directly into the camera.

/Approach as closely as possible to make your picture.
