V. Other Features • If the built-in flash is used with an EF 28-105=03.5-5.6 USM lens focused at less than one meter, vignetting will occur (part of the picture will be dark). Stay at least one meter away from the subject when using flash. • When using the built-in flash, detach any hood attached to the lens. A lens hood will obstruct part of the flash coverage. • The built-in flash cannot be used together with an external flash unit. • If a dedicated Speedlite or the hot shoe cover is attached to the hot shoe, the built-in flash will not operate. • Before attaching an external flash unit, retract the built-in flash. • Using the built-in flash with any of the following lenses may partially obstruct the flash coverage. Use an external flash unit instead. • EF 20-35mm f/2.8L, EF 28-70mm f/2.8L, and other fast lenses. • EF 300mm f/2.8L, EF 600mm f/4L, and other super telephoto lenses. • If an external flash unit is used with a Programmed Image Control mode, it will fire in the Program AE mode. • The built-in flash covers a 28 mm lens. If the lens is wider than 28 mm, the periphery of the picture will darken. Setting Red-Eye Reduction When flash is used in a low-light environment, the subject's eyes may look red in the photograph. This happens when the light from the flash reflects off the pupils of the eyes. With red-eye reduction set, the red-eye reduction lamp lights automatically when red-eye is prone to occur. The lamp aims to reduce the diameter of the subject's pupils to reduce the chances of red-eye occurring. • Red-eye reduction can be set in any picture-taking mode. • The red-eye reduction lamp lights while the shutter button is pressed halfway. For maximum red-eye reduction effect, press the shutter button completely after the red-eye reduction lamp-on indicator turns off after about 2 seconds. • When the shutter button is pressed halfway, the red-eye reduction lamp-on indicator is displayed in the viewfinder and on the LCD panel to indicate that the red-eye reduction lamp is on. 65

is
used
in
a
low
-light
environment,
the
subject's
eyes
may
look
red
in

reflects
off
the
pupils
of
the
eyes.
With

-eye
reduction
set,
the
red
-eye
reduction
lamp
lights
automatically
when
red
-eye
is
prone
to
occur.
The

aims
to
reduce
the
diameter
of
the

pupils
to
reduce
the
chances
of
red
