About the red-eye phenomenon
Taking pictures using the flash may cause the subject’s eyes to appear red in the
resulting picture. This phenomenon occurs when the light from the flash is reflected
in the subject’s eyes. It can be reduced by increasing the illumination in the area
around the subject and/or decreasing the subject distance and adjusting the lens to
wider angle setting. Setting the flash mode to c (Auto + Red-eye) or d (Flash On +
Red-eye) is also an effective way of reducing red eyes.
If the subject’s eyes appear red despite such precautions, they can be corrected by
the Red-eye Edit function (p.153).
