Shooting – The Basics
z The red-eye reduction function cannot
be set when the Special Scene mode
(p. 51) is set to (Fireworks).
z Red-Eye Reduction
When shooting with the red-eye
reduction function, the subjects must
look right at the red-eye reduction lamp
for this mode to be effective. Try asking
them to look directly at the lamp. Even
better results can be obtained by
shooting with the lens set to a wide
angle, increasing the lighting in indoor
settings or approaching closer to the
subject.
Macro Mode
The image will be shot in macro mode when
the distance between the lens and the subject
is in the range of 5 to 46 cm (2.0 in. to 1.5 ft.)
at wide angle end and 26 to 46 cm (10 in. to
1.5 ft.) at telephoto end.
Use to take close-up shots of flowers or small
objects.
