Whenever you want to use fill-flash for backlit situations, press the "anytime flash/red-eye reduction" button while shooting.

Red-eye reduction

In flash photography, the subject's eyes sometimes appear bright red in color pictures due to a phenomenon known as "red-eye." To counteract this effect, your camera is equipped with a red-eye reduction lamp. Under low light situations, when releasing the shutter with the "anytime flash/red-eye reduction" button depressed, the red-eye reduction lamp automatically lights up, causing the size of the subject's pupil to grow smaller, minimizing the red-eye effect.

H ow to use focus lock (See Fig. O on page 38.)

2Lightly press the shutter release button to lock focus on the subject.

3Keeping the shutter release button lightly pressed, recompose the scene. Then fully depress the shutter release button.

Note: To cancel focus lock, simply remove your finger from the shutter release button.
