light up (CO 93).

focus even if the AF-assist lamp is on.

approx. 1 to 2 m (3.3 to 6.6 ft.). The
actual range will depend on the
recording conditions.

continuous shooting mode.
• For red-eye reduction to be effective,
the subject needs to look at the assist

on the distance and on each individual.
