FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY
Red-Eye Reduction Flash
A series of low-power pre-flashes before the main flash
accustoms the subject’s eyes to the light and helps prevent
their eyes from appearing red in a photograph.
Eyes appear red.

Hold the camera securely. It takes about 1 second until the shutter releases.
앫
Red-eye reduction may not be effective when the subject:
1. Is not looking at the flash from right in front.
2. Is not watching the pre-flashes.
3. Is too far from the camera.
The effectiveness of red-eye reduction varies depending on the individual
characteristics of each subject.

remote control at the camera and
press the button on the remote
control. The selftimer/remote control
indicator starts blinking, and the

We recommend to fix the camera by using a tripod, when shooting
subjects in dark places using the flash-off mode, night scene flash
mode, or red-eye reduction night scene flash mode.

앫Do not leave the camera in any place exposed to excessive heat,
humidity or direct sunlight — for example, in a car or on the
beach.
앫Do not expose the camera to formalin or naphthalene.
앫If the camera gets wet, wipe it with a dry towel. The salt in
seawater can be especially damaging.
앫Do not use organic solvents such as alcohol or paint thinner
when cleaning the camera.
앫Do not leave the camera on or near a television, refrigerator or
other appliance with a magnetic field.
앫Do not expose the camera to dust or sand as this could cause
serious damage.
앫Do not shake the camera.
앫Do not apply excessive force to the zoom lens.
앫Do not expose the camera to extreme heat (over 40°C/104°F) or
to extreme cold (below –10°C/14°F). Low temperatures, even
within this range may sometimes cause deterioration in battery
performance, temporarily disabling the camera.
앫Avoid leaving the camera unused for long periods of time. This
can cause mold to grow on the camera as well as other
problems. Try to press the shutter release button and check the
operation of the camera before use.
앫Some airport X-ray machines can damage the film in your
camera. Try to avoid passing your camera through these
machines. Give it to the security officer for manual inspection.
앫Do not touch the front surface of the flash after using it
continuously over a short period as the surface may be hot.
