Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1.I always take poor quality photos at home, why?

It may be due to insufficient light intensity at your home. Try to increase the illumination of your home when taking photos. However, it is not recommended that you use the camera indoor or at night where light intensity is not sufficient.

2.Why would I get dark images even when the photos are taken outdoor? The objects may be in a shade, for example, under a tree.

3.How can I avoid getting dark images?

Pay attention to the background light intensity as it will affect the exposure of the main object. The camera can calculate the total light intensity of the picture and fine-adjust the exposure. If the background is too dark, the object will be too bright. If the background is too bright, the object will be too dark. Change the angle where you take the pictures so that the object and the background are with similar light intensity.

4.Why would I get fuzzy, unclear photos?

There might be some movements of your body or hands when taking photos. Hold the camera steadily with both hands. Use the first finger of your right hand to press the shutter. Stand on solid ground. Do not move or run when pressing the shutter. Even tiny movements will result in fuzzy photos.

5.Why would I get some blurry areas in a photo?

You may have covered part of the lens when taking the photo. Or there may be some grease on the lens. Remove it with a dry and soft cloth.

6.Can I take a photo of the Sun?

DO NOT point your camera directly to strong light sources such as the Sun as it may damage the CMOS image sensor inside the camera. If you do so, the background will be too dark and you see nothing in the photo.

7.Why would image colors change if I take photos indoor?

The use of light bulbs indoor will affect the image colors you see on photos. To improve the situation, use daylight bulbs or fluorescent lamps instead.

8.How should I position my camera to get good quality images?

Keep the viewfinder horizontal as much as possible. Try to kneel down if necessary.

9.Why would I get horizontal, black stripes in photos taken abroad?
