appear red when the

areas.

effective, the subject must be looking
right at the red-eye reduction lamp.
Try asking them to look directly at
the lamp.
zEven better results can be obtained
by increasing the lighting in indoor
settings or approaching closer to the
subject. The shutter will not activate
for approximately 1 second after the
red-eye reduction lamp fires in order
to improve the effect.
