Problem Cause/Solution A Colors are unnatural. White balance or hue is not adjusted properly. 33, 50, E22 Randomly spaced bright pixels ("noise") appear in image. The subject is dark, and the shutter speed is too slow or ISO sensitivity is too high. Noise can be reduced by: • Using the flash. • Specifying a lower ISO sensitivity setting. 40 50, E26 Images are too dark (underexposed). • The flash is lowered or a shooting mode that restricts the flash is selected. • The flash window is blocked. • The subject is beyond the range of the flash. • Adjust exposure compensation. • Increase ISO sensitivity. • The subject is backlit. Select Backlighting scene mode or raise the flash and set the flash mode setting to X (fill flash). 5, 40, 47 24 F16 46 50, E26 34, 40 Images are too bright (overexposed). Unexpected results when flash set to V (auto with red-eye reduction). Adjust exposure compensation. 46 When taking images with V (auto with red-eye reduction), or when taking images with Night portrait (either in easy auto mode or in scene mode) and the fill flash with slow sync and red-eye reduction is used, In-Camera Red Eye Fix may be applied to areas not affected by red-eye in rare cases. Use auto mode or any scene mode other than Night portrait, and change the flash mode to any setting other than V (auto with red-eye reduction) and try taking an image again. 33, 40 Skin tones are not softened. • In some shooting conditions, facial skin tones may not be softened. • For images containing four or more faces, try using the Skin softening effect in the playback menu. 53 58, E7 Technical Notes and Index F12
