Red-Eye Reduction
When shooting with the red-eye reduction function, the
subjects must look right at the red-eye reduction lamp for

the lamp. Even better results can be obtained by shooting
with the lens set to a wide angle, increasing the lighting in
indoor settings or approaching closer to the subject.
