The picture has obscured edge(s).
The lens was partly
blocked by your
finger or the strap.
Hold the camera correctly, keeping your fingers
and the strap away from the lens.
The picture is out of focus.
The camera moved
when the shutter
button was pressed.
Hold the camera correctly and press the shutter
button gently.
The subject was too
close.
Move further away from the subject. To take
pictures closer than 7 cm (2.8") with the zoom in
the maximum WIDE position, use the super
macro mode.
The flash was not
enabled in a lighting
condition requiring
use of the flash.
Push the flash lever up to make the flash pop up.
Camera movement occurs easily with slower
shutter speeds. Use a tripod, or hold the camera
firmly.
The lens was dirty.
Clean the lens. Use a commercially available
blower blush and then wipe with a lens cleaner to
remove dust. Mold may form on the lens surface
if the lens is left dirty.
The picture was out
of focus even though
the green lamp was
lit.
Focus the camera on an object at the same
distance as the intended subject using the focus
lock function before composing your shot.
Halation produces unnatural colors in the picture.
This may be caused
by excessively bright
ultraviolet light on the
subject, such as
sunlight shining
through the leaves of
trees, window frames
in bright light at night,
reflection of metal in
direct sunlight, etc.
• Use a UV filter. As this may upset the overall
color balance, it should only be used in the
conditions described on the left.
• Process the picture on a PC using a graphics
application (Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, etc.).
For example, after picking up unnatural colors
with a syringe tool, etc. you can select color
areas, and try color conversion or saturation
adjustment. For details, refer to the manual for
the graphics application you are using.
