Problem My image is too bright (continued). My image is too dark. Possible Cause Solution A natural or artificial source other than the flash provided too much light. • Try taking the picture from a different angle. • Avoid pointing the camera directly toward a bright light or reflective surface on a sunny day. • Decrease EV Compensation (see page 56). The scene had many dark objects, such as a black object on a dark background. Decrease the EV Compensation (see page 56). The Display Brightness needs to be adjusted. Set the Display Brightness in the Setup Menu to Low or Medium (see page 94). The flash was on, but the subject was too far away. Make sure your subject is within the flash working distance (see page 168). If not, try using the Flash Off setting (see page 40), which will require a longer exposure (use a tripod) or use Adaptive Lighting (see page 52). The scene had many lightcolored objects, such as a white object on a light background. Increase the EV Compensation (see page 56). Troubleshooting and Support 121
