Q
Why do the subjects’ eyes sometimes appear red in pictures?
A
This “red-eye phenomenon” occurs with all cameras when a flash is used.
It is caused by light from the flash reflecting off the retina at the back of the
eye. Red-eye varies depending on the individual and the shooting
conditions such as ambient lighting. Use of the Red-Eye Reducing Pre-
Flash mode significantly reduces this phenomenon. (P. 54)
Q
Can I use a filter or hood?
A

Q
Can I use an extension flash?
A
This camera is not designed for use with extension flashes. A slave
