Using Red-eye Reduction Flash
“Red-eye” is the phenomenon where eyes look reddish in photographs taken
in dark environments with a fl ash. This is caused by the refl ection of the
electronic fl ash from the retina of the eye. Red-eye occurs because pupils
are dilated in dark environments. This phenomenon cannot be averted but the
following measures can be used to combat it.

following measures can be used to combat it.
● Brighten the surroundings when shooting.
● If using a zoom lens, set it to wide-angle and move in closer to your subject.
● Use a fl ash that supports red-eye reduction.
● Avoiding the direct use of external fl ash may reduce the “red-eye” in pictures.

The red-eye reduction function on this camera reduces red-eye by discharging
the fl ash twice. With the red-eye reduction function, the pre-fl ash is discharged
just before the shutter is released. This reduces pupil dilation. The main fl ash
is then discharged while the pupils are smaller, reducing the red-eye effect.
To use the red-eye reduction function, set [Auto+Red-eye(
