Troubleshooting
Subject is too far away for
flash to reach.
Shoot within correct flash range of
the subject when using the built-in
flash (p. 138).
Raise the ISO speed and then shoot
(p. 65).
Subject in recorded image is too bright, or
image flashes white.
Subject is too close,
making the flash too
strong.
Shoot within correct flash range of
the subject when using the built-in
flash (p. 138).
The subject is
overexposed because the
surroundings are too
dark.
Set the exposure compensation to a
negative (-) setting (p. 52).
Use AE lock or use the spot metering
function (pp. 49, 51).
Too much light is shining
directly into the camera,
or is being reflected off
the subject.
Change the shooting angle.
Flash is set to on.
Set the flash to
(flash off) (
Basic
Guide
p. 15).
Image contains noise.
ISO speed is too high.
Higher ISO speeds and the
(High
ISO Auto) setting may increase
image noise. For higher image
quality, select as low an ISO speed
as possible (p. 65).
In
,
,
,
and
modes,
the ISO speed increases and noise
can appear.
White dots appear on the image.
Light from the flash has
reflected off dust particles
or insects in the air. This
is particularly noticeable
when shooting using the
wide angle.
This is a phenomenon that occurs
with digital cameras and does not
constitute a malfunction.
