his camera uses Advanced Red-Eye Reduction (In-Camera Red-Eye Fix).
If the camera detects red eye while saving an image, the affected area will be processed to reduce
red-eye before the image is saved.
Note the following when shooting:
More time than usual is required to save images.
Red-eye reduction may not produce the desired results in all situations.
In some cases, red-eye correction may be applied to areas of an image unnecessarily. In these
cases, select another flash mode and take the picture again.
