Red-eye Reduction
The camera uses advanced red-eye reduction. Low-intensity light pulses cause the sub-
ject's pupils to contract before the flash fires. If the camera still detects red-eye, it will
process the image to further reduce its effects ("In-Camera Red-eye Fix"; note that this
may slightly increase the time needed to record the picture). This mode is not recom-
mended where a quick shutter response is required; if the desired results are not
achieved, try again at a different flash setting.

release button is pressed halfway.
