Flash Pain in the Butt

Postby BBJ on Sun Jul 24, 2005 11:03 pm

Hi All, well i am not a flash person but have used it for portrait stuf and for fill. Today i did some pics at the indoor karting centre inwhich my Ulysses branch had a bit of a go at and i used the flash. Problem is that i had a lot with red eye as red eye on camera is no good shooting fast moving people. Is there something i am doing wrong or is it just something i have to live with.
Thanks

Well John, you could blame the subjects having enlarged pupils causing the red eye... I'm afraid photoshop is about your only hope now that the event is past. CS2 apparently has quick red-eye removal, as does Capture IIRC.
