E QHow should I store the camera? ACameras are susceptible to damage caused by dust, moisture, and salt. Wipe and dry the camera thoroughly before storing it. After using it at the beach, wipe it with a cloth that has been moistened with fresh water and then wrung out. Do not store in an area where mothballs are used. Unload the batteries if you do not plan to use the camera for a long period. QWhy do the subjects' eyes sometimes appear red in pictures? AThis "red-eye phenomenon" occurs with all cameras when a flash is used. It is caused by light from the flash reflecting off the retina at the back of the eye. Red-eye varies depending on the individual and the shooting conditions such as ambient lighting. Use of the Red-Eye Reducing Pre-Flash mode significantly reduces this phenomenon. QCan I use a filter or hood? AOlympus does not provide one. QCan I use an extension flash? AYes you can. Please see our Internet home page (http://www.olympus.com). 224
