too dark.

Possible Cause
There was not
enough light.
The flash was
on, but the
subject was too
far away.
A light is behind
the subject.
Your finger
blocked the
flash.
Solution
• Wait for natural lighting
conditions to improve.
• Add indirect lighting.
• Use the flash (see
page 40).
• Increase the EV
Compensation (see
page 55).
• Use Adaptive Lighting (see
page 51).
Make sure your subject is
within the flash working range
(see page 164). If not, try
using the Flash Off
(see page 40), which will
require a longer exposure (use
a tripod).
• Use the Flash On
(see page 40) to brighten
the subject. This is called
fill-flash.
• Increase the EV
Compensation (see
page 55).
• Use Adaptive Lighting (see
page 51).
Be sure to move your fingers
away from the flash when you
take a picture.
