How to Take Great Photos
To take a photo of a subject that is shiny or metallic, or to take a photo through a window,you need to do something special so that your photo turns out right.
Right next to the green shutter button that you use to take a photo is a small pink button. Pressing this button lets you take a photo without the flash.
So, whenever you take a photo of something very bright or metallic, or take a photo through a window, press this pink button.

Look at the photo to the right. How does this happen?
Spots can show up on photos if the developer rollers inside the film door of your camera get dirty.
To fix this problem, open the film door of your camera. Inside the film door are the developer rollers.
To clean the rollers, take a lint-free cloth and sprinkle some water droplets on it. Gently rub the devel­oper rollers with the cloth until they are clean.
If there is film is in your camera, clean the rollers in a place with very dim light.
