due to the light source Change the “White balance” setting in the photography menu.
To avoid missing snapshot opportunities Take pictures in B mode (see “Using the Camera”).
To prevent the subject from being overexposed or
underexposed and to show the substance and textures
of the subject clearly Use exposure compensation.

dark.
