Shooting with flash in dark places, the subject's eyes may appear red in the picture. This phenomenon is known as
"red-eye" and occurs when flash reflects back from the retina. This camera is equipped with a Red-eye Reduction
device which can contract the pupils of the subject and reduce the chances of red-eye.
The Red-eye Reduction unit will automatically activate in the event of shooting with flash, it will light up and shine
into the subject's eyes before
shutter releases.
As there is a delay effect for the red-eye reduction lamp to function, please press the button and hold the
camera steady until
