Basic troubleshooting
Learn to solve common problems by setting shooting options.
The subject’s eyes appear red.
Red eye occurs when the subject’s eyes reflect light from the camera flash. · Set the flash option to Red-eye or Red-eye Fix. (p. 67) · If the photo has already been captured, select Red-eye Fix in the edit menu. (p. 98)
Photos have dust spots.
If dust particles are present in the air, you may capture them in photos when you use the flash. · Turn off the flash or avoid capturing photos in a dusty place. · Set ISO sensitivity options. (p. 69)
Photos are blurred.
Blurring can occur if you capture photos in low light conditions or hold the camera incorrectly. Use the DIS function or half-press [Shutter] to ensure the subject is in focus. (p. 41)
Photos are blurred when shooting at night.
Subjects come out too dark because of backlighting.
As the camera tries to let in more light, the shutter speed slows. This can
make it difficult to hold the camera steady long enough to capture a clear
photo and may result in camera shake. · Select Night Shot mode. (p. 55) · Turn
on the flash. (p. 67) · Set ISO sensitivity options. (p. 69) · Use a tripod to
prevent your camera from shaking.
When the light source is behind the subject or when there is a high contrast
between light and dark areas, the subject may appear too dark. · Avoid
shooting toward the sun. · Select Backlight in Scene mode. (p. 48) · Set the
flash option to Fill in. (p. 67) · Adjust the exposure. (p. 75) · Set the Auto
Contrast Balance (ACB) option. (p. 76) · Set the metering option to Spot if a
subject is in the center of the frame. (p. 76)
