Red-eye Reduction

Reduces the phenomena where human eyes become red from flashes.

The flash is activated 2 times.

The red-eye phenomenon tends to appear in certain recording conditions and more with some people than with others.

When faces are detected in the Intelligent Auto Mode or Intelligent Auto Plus Mode, the Red-eye Reduction is set to on.

Self-timer

This is for recording still pictures using the timer.

Each time the icon is selected, the indication changes by one setting in the following order: Ø10 (Records after 10 seconds) # Ø2 (Records after 2 seconds) # setting canceled

When you press the button, Ø10 or Ø2 flashes for the set period before a still picture is recorded. After recording, the Self-timer is canceled.

In Auto Focus Mode, if the button is pressed halfway once and then fully, the lens focuses

on the subject when the button is pressed halfway. If the button is pressed fully all at once, the lens focuses on the subject just before recording.

To stop the timer midway through

Touch [CANCEL].

Setting the Self-timer to Ø2 is a good way to prevent image shake when the button is pressed while using a tripod etc.

Intelligent Exposure

This brightens dark areas so the image can be recorded clearly.

If there are extremely dark parts or the brightness is insufficient, the effect may not be clear.

Backlight Compensation

This makes the image brighter to prevent darkening of a backlit subject.

Guidelines

You can check if the image is level while recording motion pictures and still pictures. The function can also be used to estimate the balance of the composition.

It will switch every time the icon is touched.
