When flash is used in a low-light environment, the subject’s eyes may
come out red in the photograph. “Red eye” happens when the light from
the flash reflects off the retina of the eyes. The camera’s red-eye reduc-
tion feature turns on the red-eye reduction lamp to shine a gentle light
into the subject’s eyes to narrow the pupil diameter or iris. A smaller pupil
reduces the chances of red eye from occurring. Red-eye reduction can
be set in any shooting mode except < >, < > and < >.
