The flash strobes two or more times before
shooting to reduce the red-eye phenomenon when
using the flash.
• To avoid blurring of images, hold the camera firmly until the shutter is released. It usually takes a second
after you press the shutter button. Be also sure not to allow the subject to move during this period.
• Red-eye reduction may not produce the desired effects. It depends on individual differences and
conditions, such as distance to the subject, or if the subject looked away from the pre-strobe. In such a
case, you can correct the red-eye using [Retouch] in the viewing menu after shooting (page 64).
• If you do not use the Face Detect function, Red Eye Reduction does not work, even when you select
[Auto].
• This setting is not available depending on the Scene Selection mode (page 49).
Selects whether to use the Face Detect function continuously or when the touch panel is
touched.

Face Detection: Detecting the face of subject
(Continuous)

touched area is brought into focus.
