(continued).

grainy.
Downloaded from ManualsCamera.com Manuals
Possible Cause
The scene had
many light-
colored objects,
such as a white
object against
a light
background.
You used EV
Compensation
when you
should not have.
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.
The ISO Speed
setting was too
high.
The Image
Quality setting
was too low.
Troubleshooting and Support
Solution
Increase the EV Compensation
(see page 54).
Set EV Compensation to 0.0
(see page 54).
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.
Use a lower ISO Speed setting
(see page 56).
Use the highest image quality
setting (5MP Best), which has
the lowest image compression
(see page 55).
