The camera uses advanced red-eye reduction. Low-intensity light pulses cause the sub-
ject’s pupils to contract before the fl ash fi res. If the camera still detects red-eye, it will pro-
cess the image to further its eff ects (“In-Camera Red-eye Fix”; note that this may slightly
increase the time needed to record the picture). This mode is not recommended where
a quick shutter response is required; if the desired results are not achieved, try again at a
diff erent fl ash setting.
