Your pictures do not look as good as they used to.

Your camera’s lens may be dirty or dusty. Try

cleaning it following the instructions in “Cleaning

the camera” on page 6-2.

The area captured in the photo is different from what

you saw in the viewfinder.

Take care to look straight through the viewfinder.

When taking photos in Macro mode, EPSON

recommends using the LCD Monitor rather than

the viewfinder to frame your subject.

Keep in mind that the area visible through the

viewfinder is slightly smaller than the area

captured in the actual photo.
