Don’t Block the Shot

To avoid dark or partially obscured pic- tures, keep your fingers and other ob- jects away from the lens and flash window.

Smear

When you frame bright subjects, vertical comet-like streaks that whiten to- ward either end may appear in the monitor. This phenomenon, known as “smear,” does not appear in the final photograph and does not indicate a malfunction. Some smearing may appear in movies.
