Red-eye Reduction
The COOLPIX L6 is equipped with an advanced red-eye reduction system. Pre-flashes are fired
several times at low intensity before the main flash to reduce “red-eye”. If the camera detects
“red-eye” after a picture is taken, Nikon’s own In-Camera Red-Eye Fix processes the image as
it is recorded. Therefore, there is a slight delay before the shutter-release button operates nor-
mally to take another picture. Red-eye reduction may not always produce the desired results.
In some rare cases, other portion of pictures may be affected. Should this occur, choose
another flash mode and try again.
