Basic troubleshooting

Learn to solve common problems by setting shooting options.
The subject’s eyes appear red.
Photos have dust spots. If dust particles are present in the air, you may capture them in photos when you use the ash.
Photos are blurred. Blurring can occur if you capture photos in low light conditions or hold the camera incorrectly.
Photos are blurred when shooting at night.
Subjects come out too dark because of backlighting.
Red eye occurs when the subject's eyes reect light from the camera ash.
Set the ash option to Red-eye or Red-eye Fix. (p. 57)
If the photo has already been captured, select Red-eye Fix in the edit menu. (p. 88)
Turn o the ash or avoid capturing photos in a dusty place.
Set ISO sensitivity options. (p. 60)
Use the OIS function or half-press [Shutter] to ensure the subject is in focus. (p. 35)
Use the mode. (p. 44)
As the camera tries to let in more light, the shutter speed slows. This can make it dicult to hold the camera steady long enough to capture a clear photo and may result in camera shake.
Select Night in mode. (p. 41)
Turn on the ash. (p. 58)
Set ISO sensitivity options. (p. 60)
Use a tripod to prevent your camera from shaking.
When the light source is behind the subject or when there is a high contrast between light and dark areas, the subject may appear too dark.
Avoid shooting toward the sun.
Select Backlight in mode. (p. 41)
Set the ash option to Fill in. (p. 58)
Adjust the exposure. (p. 68)
Set the Auto Contrast Balance (ACB) option. (p. 69)
Set the metering option to Spot if a subject is in the center of the frame. (p. 69)

About histograms
A histogram is a graph that illustrates how light is distributed in your photo. If the histogram has a high peak on the left, the photo is underexposed and will appear dark. A peak on the right of the graph means that the photo is overexposed and will appear washed out. The height of the peaks is related to color information. The more of a particular color, the taller the peak.

Tips for getting a clearer photo

Holding your camera correctly
Ensure nothing is blocking the lens, ash, or microphone.
Half-pressing the shutter button
Half-press [Shutter] and adjust the focus. The camera adjusts the focus and exposure automatically.
The camera sets the aperture value and shutter speed automatically.
Focus frame
Press [Shutter] to capture the photo if the focus frame appears in green.
Change the composition and half-press [Shutter] again if the focus frame appears in red.
Basic functions
Reducing camera shake
Set the Optical Image Stabilization option to reduce camera shake digitally. (p. 34)
Select the mode or set the Dual IS option to reduce camera shake both optically and digitally. (p. 44, 34)
When is displayed
Camera shake
When you shoot in the dark, avoid setting the ash option to Slow Sync or O. The aperture remains open longer and it may be harder to hold the camera steady long enough to capture a clear photo.
Use a tripod or set the ash option to Fill in. (p. 58)
Set ISO sensitivity options. (p. 60)

Preventing your subject from being out of focus
It may be dicult to get your subject in focus when:
-
there is little contrast between the subject and background (for example, when your subject is wearing clothing that is similar in color to the background)
-
the light source behind the subject is too bright
-
the subject is shiny or reective
-
the subject includes horizontal patterns, such as blinds
-
the subject is not positioned in the center of the frame
Using the focus lock
Half-press [Shutter] to focus. When the subject is in focus, you can reposition the frame to change the composition. When you are ready, press [Shutter] to capture your photo.
When you capture photos in low light
When subjects are moving rapidly
Turn on the ash. (p. 58)
Use the Continuous or Motion Capture function. (p. 72)
