NOTE

Correcting the lighting when shooting produces better results (page 39).

Altering the lighting of an image causes the original image and the new (altered) version to be stored as separate files.

When you display an altered image on the camera’s monitor screen, the date and time indicates when the image was originally recorded, not when the image was altered.

Using Red Eye Correction (Red Eye)

Procedure

[p] (PLAY) * Snapshot Screen * [MENU] * PLAY Tab * Red Eye

Using the flash to shoot at night or in a dimly lit room can cause red spots inside the eyes of people who are in the image. This is caused when the light from the flash reflects off of the retina of the eye. Red eye correction corrects the eye colors of subjects to their normal colors when red eye occurs while using the flash.

Correct

Turns on red eye correction.

Cancel

Turns off red eye correction.

 

 

NOTE

The original snapshot is retained in memory and not deleted.

Red eye correction may not be possible in the case of small faces or profiles.

Red eye correction may not produce the desired effect under certain conditions.
