Image taken appears whitish
This may occur when the picture is taken in backlight or semi-backlight conditions.
This is due to a phenomenon called fl are or ghosting. As far as possible, consider a
composition where strong light source is not taken in the picture. Flare may occur even
when a light source is not present in the picture. Use a lens hood to shade the lens
from the light source. If a lens hood does not have effect, use your hand to shade the
lens from the light. g "Interchangeable lenses" (P. 98)

Unknown bright dot(s) appear on the subject in the picture taken
This may be due to stuck pixel(s) on the image pickup device. Perform [PIXEL
MAPPING]. If the problem persists, repeat pixel mapping a few times.
