m Using Red-eye Reduction Function Etfectiveiy When you use the flash to take photos of people in low light conditions, their eyes sometimes glow red in the photograph. This is referred to as the red-eye effect and is caused by the light of the flash being reflected off the retina of the eye. When the red-eye reduction operates, the red-eye reduction lamp lights for approximately 1 second before the flash fires. This causes the subject's pupils to contract, minimizing the risk of red-eye. ©Take the picture from within 2 m/6.6 ft. of your subject. ©Attract the subject's attention so that he or she looks at the camera. • The effectiveness of the red-eye reduction function varies from person to person. • Set the lens to the wide-angle position. • Raise the available light level as much as possible. ^ Shooting Portraits Use this mode when you want to lessen the impact of the background and highlight the subject. The camera automatically zooms in to frame the upper part of the subject's body and fires the flash for every shot to produce highlights in the subject's eyes. • Foilow the steps in ftWt») to take a picture. O Because the red-eye reduction function operates before the picture can be taken, there is a 1-second delay before the shutter releases. Keep the shutter button held down until you hear the sound of the film winding on. In automatic zooming, the upper part of the subject's body is framed at distances of 0.95 to 3.8 m/3.1 to 12.5 ft. from the subject. You can also adjust the zoom setting after automatic zooming Is finished. 0-24
