only displayed when the camera is powered on.

Do not touch, bend or scratch the picture you have just taken or uneven picture development may occur during the photo development process. Additionally, do not shake the film sheet during the photo development process.

Red-eye Phenomenon

Red Eye is caused by the light from the camera flash reflecting off the back of the

retina of the subjects eye. The light traveling into the eye is reflected back at

the same angle in which it hit the retina. In low light conditions, the eye responds by

opening up its iris. By doing so, the iris appears larger, and more light can be let in. Inversely, more light can be reflected back

at the camera when a picture is taken causing the subjects red eye to be

prominent in the photograph. The camera "Red-Eye Reduction"'mode can reduce

the red-eye phenomenon.
