Red-eye Reduction, When Lighting Is Poor, The AF-assist illuminator may light

Page 31 highlights

Red-eye Reduction The camera uses advanced red-eye reduction. Low-intensity light pulses cause the subject's pupils to contract before the flash fires. If the camera still detects red-eye, it will process the image to further its effects ("In-Camera Red-eye Fix"; note that this may slightly increase the time needed to record the picture). This mode is not recommended where a quick shutter response is required; if the desired results are not achieved, try again at a different flash setting. When Lighting Is Poor ቢ The AF-assist illuminator may light If lighting is poor, the AF-assist illuminator may light to assist the focus operation when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The illuminator has a maximum range of about 1.9 m/6 ft. 3 in. (W) to 1.1 m/3 ft. 7 in. (T). The AF-assist illuminator is not available in some modes ( 26-34) and can also be turned off manually ( 88), although in this case the camera may not focus when lighting is poor. ባ A blur warning may be displayed If the flash is off, a icon will be displayed to warn that pictures may be blurred as a result of slow shutter speeds. If an ISO icon is displayed, sensitivity has been raised to compensate for poor lighting and pictures may be affected by "noise" in the form of randomly-spaced, brightly-colored dots ( 78). The camera may process pictures to reduce noise, doubling recording times. If the warning at right is displayed after a picture is taken, the picture may be blurred. Select No to exit without recording the picture. If no operations are performed for about twenty seconds, the picture will be recorded automatically. PICTURE IS BLURRED. SAVE PICTURE?
