Canon A50 manual Flash/- Button, Program or Stitch Assist Mode, the Red-Eye Reduction

Flash/- Button

Program or Stitch Assist Mode:

This button switches between the Auto, Red- Eye Reduction, Flash On and Flash Off functions.

	• The absence of a flash icon
	indicates the Auto mode.
	The flash will automatically
➜	respond to the light level
	detected by the camera.
	• The	icon indicates the
	Red-Eye Reduction mode.
	When the flash is required,
➜	the Red-Eye Reduction
	Lamp will light when you
	press the shutter button.

• The icon indicates the Flash On mode. The flash will fire with each shot.

• The icon indicates the Flash Off mode. The flash will not fire.

•The Red-Eye Reduction mode counter- acts the tendency for flash photography to produce the red-eye effect in prints of humans and animals, the result of light reflected back from the subjects’ retinas. The flash emitted before the actual shutter operation causes the subjects’ irises to narrow in advance, thereby reducing the potential for reflections back from the retinas.

•When shooting in the Red-Eye Reduction mode, press the shutter button halfway and wait a moment before pressing it fully. If the interval between pressing the shutter halfway and all the way is too short, the Red-Eye Reduction Lamp may not fire.
