Problem
Randomly spaced bright pixels
("noise") appear in image.
Pictures are too dark
(underexposed).
Pictures are too bright
(overexposed).
Unexpected results when flash
set to V (auto with red-eye
reduction).
Playback
Problem
File cannot be played back.
Cannot zoom in on picture.
Cannot record or play back
voice memos.
Cause/Solution
Shutter speed too slow or ISO sensitivity is high as
the subject is dark. Noise can be reduced by:
• Using flash.
• Specifying a lower ISO sensitivity setting.
• Using a scene mode which has noise
reduction ability.
• Flash is off.
• Flash window is blocked.
• Subject is beyond flash range.
• Adjust exposure compensation.
• Select High ISO auto for ISO sensitivity in
the shooting menu, or raise the ISO sensitivity.
• Subject is backlit. Select o (Backlight scene
mode) or use fill flash.
Adjust exposure compensation.
If taking pictures with V (auto with red-eye
reduction) or fill flash with slow sync and red-eye
reduction when scene mode is set to Night
portrait, In-Camera Red Eye Fix may be applied to
areas not affected by red-eye. Use any scene mode
other than Night portrait, and change the flash
to any other settings other than V (auto with
red-eye reduction) and try shooting again.
Cause/Solution
• File or folder was overwritten or renamed by
computer or other makes of camera.
• Interval timer photography in progress:
pictures cannot be played back until
recording is complete.
Playback zoom cannot be used with movies,
small pictures, or pictures that have been
cropped to below 320 × 240.
• Voice memos cannot be appended to movies.
• Voice memos cannot be attached to images
taken with other cameras. Voice memos that
are attached to the image using other
cameras cannot be played back on this
camera.
