What causes the red-eye phenomenon?
-
Select
(High Sensitivity) mode in Scene Selection. (The flash is set to [Off] automatically.)
-
When the eyes of the subject turn out red, correct the image with [Retouch]
[Red Eye Correction] on the viewing menu or with the software “PlayMemories Home.”
-
To avoid blurring of images, hold the camera firmly until the shutter is released. It usually takes a second until the shutter is released, and also be sure not to allow the subject to move during this period.
-
Red Eye Reduction may not produce the desired effects. It depends on individual differences and conditions, such as distance to the subject, or if the subject looked away from the pre-strobe.

If you do not use the Face Detection function, Red Eye Reduction does not work, even when you select [Auto].

[Red Eye Reduction] is set to [Off] in the following situations:
-

When
(Anti Motion Blur), 
(Hand-held Twilight), (High Sensitivity), 
(Gourmet), 
(Pet) or 
(Fireworks) mode is selected in Scene Selection.
