1 The flash is in the auto-

flash mode.

1 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.
