Unexpected results when flash
set to V (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) and select a
shooting mode other than Night portrait
scene mode, then shoot. 30, 38
