Using the red-eye fix function
When you take a portrait using the flash, the bright
burst of light can cause the red-eye effect. To prevent
the red eye effect, set the flash option to
Auto+Red
or
Fill-in Red
.
1st Curtain, 2nd Curtain
The following images were obtained by taking the
pictures of straight-moving subject along with the
respective options of
1st Curtain
and
2nd Curtain
. In
case of using the
1st Curtain
flash function, the front
part of action is remained clearly since the flash will
burst light immediately upon shutter opening. Since the
flash bursts the light at a later time when having used
the
2nd Curtain
option, the picture expresses the last
image of the subject clearly.

Taking a picture in a dark place
• When you set the red-eye fix function, the
camera prevents red-eye by emitting a
preliminary flash prior to the brighter flash it
emits when capturing the image.
• When the subject is moving or is far away from
the camera at the time of the preliminary flash,
the function may not function well.
