A few weeks ago, my family was at a Hanukkah party. As a line of children bent below a bar in a limbo contest, my wife and I stood ready to photograph our 11-year-old daughter. My wife used her Olympus Stylus Epic, with the preflash on (by default); I used a Pentax Super Program, 800-speed film, an SMC 35/2K lens at f/2.8, and no flash. As our daughter passed beneath the bar, we pressed the shutter releases.
The pictures came in last week. My shot shows our daughter straining below the bar. My wife's shows the girl behind her. --Paul Stregevsky Leonard Paris wrote: Red eye reduction systems work with a pre flash and I guess that is why they are so successful. Subject blinks, eyes are closed for main flash. Voila! No red eye. ;-) -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
