Redeye reduction

Does redeye reduction have any effect on other pictures if it is left enabled? I use a Canon 60D

It shouldbn't do. All the red eye reduction setting does is make the flash fire a pre-flash to make the pupils contract so that the effect of red eye is reduced or eliminated. The roblem I have found with this is that sometimes the sitter will blink on thepre-flash or think that is the actual flash then move before the picture has been taken.

No all it does is fire a pre-flash to make the subjects pupils constrict so long as this early flash of light does not disturb your image it will make no differance at all

In that case then and as the others have said , no it won't make any difference to other images for the reasons all ready stated .
