Red-eye Reduction Function
When you use the flash to take photos of people in
low-light conditions, their eyes sometimes glow red
in the photograph. This is referred to as the red-eye
effect and is caused by the light of the flash being
reflected off the retina.
In @ mode, the red-eye reduction lamp lights for
approximately 1 second before the flash fires. This
causes the subject's pupils to contract, minimizing
the risk of red-eye.
