CThe Flash Mode Setting

•The setting varies with the shooting mode. See “Available Features” (A61) and “Default Settings” (A67) for more information.

•Some settings cannot be used with other functions (A71).

•The flash mode setting applied in A (auto) mode is saved in the camera’s memory even after the camera is turned off.

CRed-eye Reduction

This camera uses Advanced Red-Eye Reduction (In-Camera Red-Eye Fix).

If the camera detects red eye while saving an image, the affected area will be processed to reduce red-eye before the image is saved.

Note the following when shooting:

• More time than usual is required to save images.

• Red-eye reduction may not produce the desired results in all situations.

• In some cases, red-eye correction may be applied to areas of an image unnecessarily. In these cases, select another flash mode and take the picture again.
