Operational precautions
• To take a fine flash photo, shoot the subject in
the flash-effective range.
• The flash recycle time is about three seconds
with a fresh battery. If it takes more than five
seconds for the flash to be ready, the battery is
exhausted, and it should be replaced.
• Taking a portrait in color can cause "red eye,"
those red dots in the eyes, because the flash light
enters the eyes and reflects back to the lens from
the retina of the eye. This red-eye degree can be
minimized by the following methods:
® Make the room bright enough to be able to
read books and make the pupils smaller.
(2) Make the camera-to-subject distance shorter,
and shoot with the lens on the wide-angle side.
