Unexpected results
occurred when
flash is set to auto
with red-eye
reduction.

When V (auto with red-eye reduction) or “fill flash with
slow sync and red-eye reduction” of the Night portrait
scene mode is applied during shooting, In-Camera Red-Eye
Fix may, in very rare cases, be applied to areas not affected by
red-eye. Set a flash mode other than V (auto with red-eye
reduction), select a scene mode other than Night portrait,
and resume shooting.
