Solving Picture Problems
If you’re not satisfied with the pictures you get from PhotoPC, you may
need to adjust some of the camera settings. Or maybe you need to brush
up on your photography techniques. Read the suggestions listed below
and give them a try.
Your pictures display poor image quality on the screen or when you
print them out.
❙ PhotoPC captures images in 24-bit color (millions of colors). Your
pictures do not display maximum image quality if your monitor or
your Macintosh’s video capability doesn’t support at least
thousands of colors. You may need to upgrade your system to
achieve the best possible image quality.
❙ If your pictures look better on the screen than when you print them
out, you may need to upgrade your printer. An EPSON color ink jet
printer, for example, provides excellent image quality.
Your picture is blurry or out of focus.
❙ Make sure your subject is within the camera’s range. You should
be at least 2 feet away to take a picture without the flash, and 3 to
10 feet away to take a picture with the flash.
❙ Make sure you hold the camera steady until you hear the beep.
❙ Make sure your subject isn’t moving. If you want to photograph a
moving subject, try increasing the shutter speed. For information
about changing the shutter speed, see 3.
❙ Make sure your flash setting is either automatic or forced flash, as
described on page 5.
