Note that while the red-eye reduction lamp is on (for about one second), it is not possible to shoot, because the lamp is counteracting red-eye. For best results, have subjects look at the red-eye reduction lamp. Also try increasing the lighting in indoor scenes and shooting at closer range. • Edit images using red-eye correction (=81).

Sound is not played during movies. • Adjust the volume (=67) if you have activated [Mute] (=107) or the sound in the movie is faint. • No sound is played for movies shot in [ ] mode (=47) because audio is not recorded in this mode.
