The camera moved when the
shutter button was pressed.
Hold the camera correctly and press the
shutter button gently.
The subject was too close.
Position the camera more than 0.2 m/0.7 ft
from the subject and take the picture. To
take pictures closer than 0.2 m/0.7 ft, use
the super macro mode.
The flash was set to the flash
off mode in a lighting
condition requiring use of the
flash.
Camera movement occurs easily with
slower shutter speeds. Use a tripod, or hold
the camera firmly.
Halation produces unnatural colors in the picture.
Possible cause
Corrective action
Ref. Page
This may be caused by
excessively bright ultraviolet
light on the subject, such as
sunlight shining through the
leaves of trees, window
frames in bright light at night,
reflection of metal in direct
sunlight, etc.
• Use a UV filter. As this may upset the
overall color balance, it should only be
used in the conditions described on the
left.
• Process the picture using a graphics
application that supports JPEG (Paint
Shop Pro, Photoshop, etc.). For example,
after picking up unnatural colors with a
syringe tool, etc. you can select color
areas, and try color conversion or
saturation adjustment. For details, refer
to the manual for the graphics application
you are using.
