halfway. Otherwise, try pressing the shutter button halfway repeatedly.

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 (=

Recording to the memory card takes too long, or continuous shooting
is slower.
