My image is

grainy.

The camera

was too warm

when the

picture was

taken. The

camera may

have been on

for a long time

or had been

stored in a hot

location.

This effect, which can happen on

all digital cameras, is probably

not noticeable in most images.

The effect will diminish as the

camera cools. For best image

quality, avoid storing the camera

in very hot locations. If the

camera is warm after using it for

a long time, consider turning off

the Image Display to minimize

heating. As with all electronic

devices, avoid leaving the camera

in very hot locations, such as the

dashboard of a car in the sun.

The

ISO Speed

setting was too

high.

Use a lower

ISO Speed

setting

(see page 49).

The image

compression of

the

Image

Quality

setting

(

3MP

,

1MP

, or

VGA

) was too

high.

Use the

3MP Best

Image Quality

setting, which has the lowest

image compression (see

page 45).

There was not

enough light.

z

Wait for natural lighting

conditions to improve.

z

Add indirect lighting.

Use the flash (see

page 36).
