Following functions are available on Olympus cameras. Refer to camera
owner's manual for details.
The flash is controlled at a slow shutter speed to the correct
exposure for both the main subject and back ground in low
light conditions or at night.
For Olympus only
Slow synchronization
In the red-eye reduction flash mode, a series of pre-flashes
are emitted just before the regular flash fires. This helps
accustom the subject’s eyes to the bright light and minizes
the red-eye phenomenon.
Red-eye reduction flash
2nd curtain flash fires just before the shutter closes.
Changing the flash timing can create interesting effects in
your picture. The slower the shutter speed, the better the
effects turn out.
Slow synchronization (2nd curtain)
While using slow synchronization with flash shooting, you
can also use this funtion to achieve red-eye reduction.
When shooting a subject against a night scene, this
function allows you to reduce the red-eye phenomenon. As
the time from emitting pre-flashes to shooting is long in
2nd curtain synchronization, it is difficult to achieve
red-eye reduction. Hence, only 1st curtain synchronization
setting is available.
