Whenever i take a snap i get a red-eye photo. How to avoid red-eye?

Answer 1

Your Camera
Instructions

STEP 1: Attach a flash gun or detachable flash to the camera with a flash cable that connects to the front of most 35 mm cameras through a small socket.
STEP 2: Set the shutter speed of a manual camera to 1/60 second using the shutter speed dial on the top-left side of the camera.
STEP 3: Set an automatic camera to flash mode and attach a flash gun to the socket on the front of the camera.
STEP 4: Hold the flash gun a couple of feet to one side of the camera and slightly above the subject's head.
STEP 5: Press the shutter release on top of the camera.

Tips & Warnings
Many cameras with built-in flashes feature a low-powered pre-flash that helps reduce the incidence of red eye.
Bounce the flash off surroundings by aiming the flash gun at the ceiling or a wall for softer, more diffused lighting.
Use an adjustable flash that can be pointed at an angle.

Your Subjects
Instructions

STEP 1: Turn on the lights in the room so that your subjects' pupils will decrease in size.
STEP 2: Ask them to look to the side of your camera rather than straight at the camera when you snap the picture.
STEP 3: Divert babies or pets so that they look away from the camera.

Tips & Warnings
"Red eye" is caused by flash lighting reflecting off the back of the retina.

Answer 2

First, understand why it happens:

1. In the dark, your pupils get big to let in as much light as possible. Even when you are indoors in a lit room, the pupils will be bigger than normal to maintain maximum visibility.
2. When you take a picture of someone in that kind of environment, the camera usually has a flash.
3. The result is a big super bright light shining straight into people's big pupils. the red that you see is the back of their eyeballs, as seen straight through the pupil.
4. Because the snapshot is taken precisely at the moment of the flash, the pupils have not yet had a chance to contract.

To avoid it:

Increase the lighting in the room where you are taking the picture

Turn off the flash (but you risk getting a blurry image)

Use "red eye reduction." this function flashes several quick mini-flashes before the real flash+snapshot. the pre-flashes effectively dilate the pupils before the snapshot is taken.

Photo-editing software allows you to get rid of red eyes

Answer 3

Well, red eye is the result of your pupils dilating. Some cameras have a feature that reduces red-eye by flashing the lights before actually taking the picture. Another way to avoid red-eye is to not look directly at the camera flash.

Answer 4

Red eyes are caused by the pupils that are dilated because the subject is in a dark place and the flash is to close to the lens, hence the angle is too straitht and you get the reflection of the flash off the retina.

You need more light!!! As much light as you can.

Most camera' s red eye reduction works by shooting light at the subject for the pupil to close.

Separate the flash from the camera to get less of a direct angle.

Answer 5

Don't look straight into the flash or directly at the camera. If you do correct it in a photo program-plenty of them.

Answer 6

You need a positionable flash and point the flash to the ceiling that way the flash isn't directed into the person's eyes. Any way that you can divert the flash away from the person's face.

Answer 7

Stop smoking that green.

Answer 8

wear black contacts
