About Red-Eye Correction
When [Red-Eye Corr.] is set to [On], only the corrected
image is recorded to the memory card.
If the area around the eyes is red, for example from using
red eye shadow, that area may also be corrected. If this
happens, set [Red-Eye Corr.] to [Off].
Red eyes may not be automatically detected or may not be
fully corrected on some images. In either case, you can
correct images with [Red-Eye Correction] in the Play menu
(p. 142).
