Troubleshooting

Picture quality problems

Status

Solution

Picture is not clear

Clean the lens (see page 42).

 

Place the camera on a flat, steady surface or use a tripod (especially

 

in high-zoom settings or in low light).

 

Use a larger picture size (see page 27).

 

If you’re manually adjusting the ISO speed, realize that high ISO

 

setting may cause grainy pictures (see page 28).

Picture is too dark

Reposition the camera for more available light.

 

Use Fill flash (see page 8) in Program mode, Backlight in SCN mode,

 

or change your position so light is not behind the subject.

 

Move so that the distance between you and the subject is within the

 

effective flash range. (See Specifications, page 40.)

 

In Program mode, increase the Exposure Compensation (see

 

page 28).

Picture is too light

Reposition the camera to reduce the amount of available light.

 

Turn off the flash (see page 8).

 

Move so that the distance between you and the subject is within the

 

effective flash range (see Specifications, page 40).

 

In Program mode, decrease the Exposure Compensation (see

 

page 28).
