Olympus Zoom 80 Wide DIX manual RED-EYE Reducing Flash

RED-EYE REDUCING FLASH

Significantly reduces the phenomenon of "red-eye" (when a subject's eyes appear red in flash photography).

In the flash mode, the camera will fire a series of

low-power pre-flashes before the regular flash. This

makes the subject's pupils contract, significantly

reducing red-eye. Except for the pre-flashes, this mode

is the same as the Auto Flash mode.

Red-eye reduction may not be effective when the subject.

Is not looking at the flash from the right front.

Is not watching the pre-flashes.

Is too far from the camera.

The effectiveness of red-eye reduction varies depending

on the individual characteristics of subjects.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to hold the camera still until the

shutter releases. It takes approximately one second.
