Olympus D-510 ZOOM Digital Camera User Manual


 
Auto-Flash
In auto-flash mode, the flash will automatically fire in lowlight and backlit
conditions.
To fire the flash in a backlit shot, position the subject inside the AF
target mark.
Red-eye Reduction
When shooting people, eyes may appear red. Use the red-eye
reduction flash mode to compensate for this phenomenon.
In the red-eye reduction flash mode, the camera will emit a series of rapid
pre-flashes before the actual flash fires.This makes the subject’s pupils
contract, significantly reducing the red-eye effect. Be sure to hold the camera
firmly until the shutter releases, which takes approximately one second.
Red-eye reduction performance may be limited when:
The subject is not looking directly at the flash.
The subject does not watch the pre-flashes.
The subject is too far from the camera.
The subject’s eyes do not respond to the pre-flashes due to individual
characteristics.
