dark.

Flash is not on.

Turn on the flash (

page 26

).

Flash unit is not open. Slide the flash release button to

open the flash unit (

page 26

).

The subject is too far
away for the flash to
have an effect.

Move so there is no more than
16.1 ft (4.9 m) between the
camera and the subject in Wide;
13.8 ft (4.2 m) in Telephoto.

The subject is in front
of a bright light
(backlit).

Use Fill flash (

your position so light is not behind
the subject.

Not enough light.

Reposition the camera or subject
for more available light.
Use PASM mode to adjust the
