Troubleshooting • Did you wait for the camera to set the exposure settings? The camera may take a few moments to set the exposure correctly, especially when you move from a dark place to a bright place, and vice versa. If you snap a picture before the camera has time to adjust the exposure, the picture may be too bright or too dark. Give the camera a few seconds to readjust the exposure settings before snapping a picture when moving between places with different lighting conditions. Pictures are blurry • Is the camera in focus? If the subject is at a distance of 110 cm (4 ft) or farther, turn the focus ring clockwise until it snaps into place. If the subject is closer, turn the focus ring until the image in the digital viewfinder is focused. You can also zoom in to help focus the image, and then zoom out again before taking the picture. • Did you move the camera? It may be difficult to hold the camera steady, especially at slow shutter speeds (below 1/15 second). Try to place your HP Jornada on a solid surface before snapping the picture. • Is the subject moving? To capture moving subjects, you will need a fast shutter speed. Set the exposure mode to Action, or adjust the exposure settings to obtain a faster shutter speed. Cannot find pictures • Are you looking in the right folder? The pocket camera stores pictures in the My Documents folder, or in any subfolder of My Documents. To see the folder that pictures are being stored in, tap Options on the View menu. The current folder is displayed on the Filename tab, under Save/view pictures in folder. HP pocket camera 51

Troubleshooting
Did you wait for the camera to set the exposure
settings? The camera may take a few moments to set
the exposure correctly, especially when you move from
a dark place to a bright place, and vice versa. If you
snap a picture before the camera has time to adjust the
exposure, the picture may be too bright or too dark.
Give the camera a few seconds to readjust the
exposure settings before snapping a picture when
moving between places with different lighting
conditions.
