150
White dots appear on the image.
Light from the flash has
reflected off dust particles
or insects in the air. This
is particularly noticeable
when shooting using th e
wide angle or when you
increase the aperture
value in the aperture-
priority mode.
zThis is a phenomenon that occurs
with digital cameras and does not
constitute a malfunction.
Eyes appear red.
Light is reflected back
from the eyes when the
flash is used in dark
areas.
zShoot with [Red-Eye] set to [On]
(p.42). Fo r this mode to be
effective, the subject must be
looking right at the red -eye
reduction lamp. Try a sking them to
look directly at the lamp. E ven
better results can be o btained by
increasing the lightin g in indoor
settings or approachin g closer to
the subject.
zYou can correct red eyes in
recorded images using the [Red-
Eye Correction] (p. 115).
