Damaged picture

Cause

Solution

Picture was shaken back and forth or bent shortly after it was ejected from the camera.

Picture was left in the exit slot, and camera was set down on a table or other surface.

During first 60 seconds of development, handle print gently; hold it only by its wide white border, and do not wave or bend it.

Remove print from exit slot as soon as it ejects.

Subject too dark

Cause

Solution

Camera’s photocell measured the bright window light, causing the subject to be too dark.

Reposition subject away from the bright background.

When a bright source of light (lamplight, candlelight, etc.) is in the central part of the scene and in front of the subject, the camera’s photocell will measure the bright light, causing the subject to be too dark.

Move the source of light to one side of your subject so it is not in the central part of the scene.
