AVOIDING "RED EYE'-' - - -
"Red eye " is a common phenomenon in flash photog-
raphy where the center portions of a subject 's eyes
appear as bright red orbs in color photographs, or
white in black-and-white pictures.
To avoid " red eye;' take any or all of the following pre-
cautions :
• Ask the subject not to look directly into the lens when
the picture is taken.
• Using a sync cord or TTL Remote Cord SC-17, remove
the flash unit from the camera and hold it as far away
from the camera as possible.
- Increase the overall room illumination to reduce
opening of the subject 's pupil s.
