The flash has a range of about 0.5–1.4 m (1 ft 8 in.–4 ft 7 in.)
when the camera is zoomed all the way out, or 0.5–0.8 m
(1 ft8 in.–2ft 7 in.) at maximum zoom.
Red-eye reduction: A series of low-intensity “pre-flashes” are
emitted before the main flash to reduce red-eye; if red-eye is
detected after shooting, additional processing is performed to
further reduce red-eye as the pictures are saved (advanced red-
eye reduction). Note that the pre-flashes increase the delay
between the shutter-release button being pressed and the
shutter being released, and that the processing performed
when red-eye is detected may slightly increase recording
times. The desired results may not be achieved in all cases, and
in rare instances red-eye reduction may be applied to areas of
the image in which no red-eye occurs.
