Nikon SB-27 - Manual (Page 71)

71
When photographing people in dim light using a flash, the
subject's eye may appear red in color pictures or white in
B/W pictures, a phenomenon known as "red-eye" effect.
Light from the camera's flash reflects off the retina of the eye
through the pupil and back into the camera's lens.
With cameras in Group I (except F5), F65-Series/N65-Series and
Pronea 600i/6i, the SB-27's red-eye reduction lamp lights up for
approx. 1 sec. before the flash fires and the picture is taken.
