1st curtain with red-eye reduction @_, SLOW1
This mode is for when you want to use slow synchronization, yet also reduce
the red-eye phenomenon. For instance, when shooting a person against a
brightly lit night background A normat flash might make the person's eyes
red, but 1st curtain with red-eye reduction lets you capture the background
correctly and reduce the red-eye phenomenon at the same time 2rid curtain
with red-eye reduction is not available.
