Problem: Underexposed picture
(too dark)
Pictures that are too dark overall usually
indicate that the film was underexposed – too
little light reached the negative. There are
several possible causes:
The flash reflector may be pointed up.
•
Wrong exposure setting
Lens aperture too small; incorrect film
•
speed setting (for example, flash set for
ISO 3000/36° black & white film when
using ISO 80/20° film.)
If the background is too dark, the
•
subject may have been placed too far
from the background, or additional
background lighting may be required.
Equipment problem
The camera shutter may not be
•
working properly.
