Macro Mode - Canon PowerShot A510 User Manual

Shooting – The Basics
Red-eye Reduction
For this mode to be effective, the subject
must be looking right at the red-eye
reduction lamp. Try asking them to look
directly at the lamp. Even better results can
be obtained by shooting with the lens set to
a wide angle, increasing the lighting in
indoor settings or approaching closer to the
subject.
The red-eye reduction function cannot be
set when the Special Scene mode (p. 51) is
set to (Fireworks).
