    Basic troubleshooting
    Learn to solve common problems by setting shooting options.
    The subject’s eyes 
    appear red.Red eye occurs when the subject's eyes reflect light from the camera flash.
    • Set the flash option to  
    Red-eye or  Red-eye Fix. (p.66)
    • If the photo has already been captured, select  Red-eye Fix in the edit menu. (p.97)
    Photos have dust spots. If dust particles are present in the air, you may capture them in photos when you use the flash.
    • Turn off the flash or avoid capturing photos in a dusty place.
    • Set ISO sensitivity options. (p.68)
    Photos are blurred.Blurring can occur if you capture photos in low light conditions or hold the camera incorrectly. 
    U
    se the DIS function or half-press [ Shutter] to ensure the subject is in focus. (p.40)
    Photos are blurred when 
    shooting at night.As the camera tries to let in more light, the shutter speed slows. This can make it difficult to hold the camera steady long 
    enough t
    o capture a clear photo and may result in camera shake.
    • Select Night Shot mode. (p.54)
    • Turn on the flash. (p.66)
    • Set ISO sensitivity options. (p.68)
    • Use a tripod to prevent your camera from shaking.
    Subjects come out 
    too dark because of 
    backlighting. When the light source is behind the subject or when there is a high contrast between light and dark areas, the subject may 
    appear t
    oo dark.
    • Avoid shooting toward the sun.
    • Select Backlight in Scene mode. (p.47)
    • Set the flash option to  Fill in. (p.66)
    • Adjust the exposure. (p.74)
    • Set the Auto Contrast Balance ( ACB) option. (p.75)
    • Set the metering option to  Spot if a subject is in the center of the frame. (p.75)
