BASIC IMAGE RECORDING

IMPORTANT!

Note the following important points when using red- eye reduction.

•Red-eye reduction does not work unless the people in the image are looking directly at the camera during the pre-flash. Before pressing the shutter button, call out to the subjects so they all look at the camera while the pre-flash operation is performed.

•Red-eye reduction may not work very well if the subjects are located far away from the camera.
