When attached, the camera's shutter speed is auto- matically switched to the proper flash synchronization speed of 1/80 sec.
'~EDEYEn -------------------------------- "Red eye ," an optical phenomenon in which a subject's eyes appear red in photographs taken with a flash unit, is a result of the flash light's directly illuminat- ing the retina . This happens when the subject looks straight into the camera on which a flash unit is mounted .
