The Red-Eye Effect

When flash is used in low-light situations, it may reflect off the subject's

pupils and make the eyes look red in the photograph.

Setting Red-Eye Reduction

The red-eye reduction feature helps reduce red eye with the camera’s

red-eye reduction lamp which gently shines into the subject’s eyes to
decrease the pupil diameter, thereby reducing the chances of red eye

from occurring. Red-eye reduction can be set in any picture-taking mode.
