To prevent subjects’ eyes from
appearing red
The flash pre-strobes twice or more before
shooting to reduce the red-eye phenomenon.
Set [Red Eye Reduction] to [On] in the SET
UP settings (page 140). The
indicator
appears on the LCD screen.
Red-eye reduction takes approximately one
second before actually shooting the image,
so hold the camera firmly to avoid shaking.
In addition, be sure to tell the subject to
hold still.
• Red-eye reduction may not produce the
desired effects depending on individual
differences, the distance to the subject,
if the subject does not see the pre-strobe,
or other conditions. In addition, red-eye
reduction is more effective under bright
lighting and when closer to the subject.
