red-eye reduction).
When taking pictures with V (auto with red-
eye reduction) or fill flash with slow sync and
red-eye reduction in Night portrait scene
mode, In-Camera Red Eye Fix may be applied
to areas not affected by red-eye. Use any scene
mode other than Night portrait, and change
the flash to any setting other than V (auto
with red-eye reduction) and try shooting again.

softened.
• Under some shooting conditions, facial skin
tones may not be softened.
• Use e (Skin softening) for Glamour

containing more than three faces.
Saving images takes time.
It may take more time to save pictures in the
following situations.

operation
