Problem
Unexpected results when
flash set to V (auto with
red-eye reduction).
Skin tones are not softened.
Saving images takes time.
Colored circles or light
streaks appear in the
monitor or images.
Cause/Solution
When taking images with V (auto with red-eye
reduction) or fill flash with slow sync and red-eye
reduction in Night portrait scene mode, In-Camera Red
Eye Fix may be applied to areas not affected by red-eye in
rare cases. Use any scene mode other than Night
portrait, and change the flash mode to any setting other
than V (auto with red-eye reduction) and try taking an
image again.
• In some shooting conditions, facial skin tones may
not be softened.
• For images containing four or more faces, try using
the Skin softening effect in Glamour retouch in
the playback menu.
It may take more time to save images in the following
situations.
• When the noise reduction function is in operation,
such as when shooting in a dark environment.
• When the flash mode is set to V (auto with red-
eye reduction).
• When shooting in Night landscape, Night
portrait, or Backlighting (when HDR is set to On)
scene mode
• When the skin softening function is applied while
shooting.
• When using continuous shooting mode
When shooting with backlighting or when a very
strong light source (such as sunlight) is in the frame,
colored circles or light streaks (ghosting) may occur.
Change the position of the light source, or frame the
image so that the light source does not enter the
frame and try again.
