Pictures are
not sharp.
Focus signal is
blinking.
Subject is too close.
Make sure the subject is
within the focus range of the
lens.
A special situation is
preventing the autofocus
system from
focusing (p. 29)
Use the focus-lock function to
focus on an object at the
same distance as the subject
(p. 30) or use manual focus
(p. 49).
Pictures are
taken indoors
or in low-light
situations
without flash.
Slow shutter speeds
result in blurred images
when the camera is
hand-held.
Use Anti-shake or a tripod,
change the camera sensitivity
to a higher setting (p. 54), or
use the flash (p. 31).
While using
flash, the
pictures are
too dark.
The subject is beyond the
flash range (p. 55).
Move closer to the subject or
change the camera sensitivity
to a higher setting (p. 54).
