Camera - Epson PhotoPC 700 User Manual

When you use the flash in macro mode, you may find
your pictures come out too light, since the flash is
close to the subject. In this case, try setting the flash
to Flash off.
If you are facing a bright light source, you may need
to take your picture from a different angle.
Use an image-editing program to adjust the picture's
brightness and contrast.
Part of your picture is missing.
Make sure you are not blocking the lens with your
finger, hand strap, clothing, or other object.
A horizontal or vertical red line appears on your
picture.
Red lines are caused by glare. Avoid photographing very
shiny surfaces that reflect light into your lens.
The wrong date and/or time is displayed on your

camera.

If you remove the batteries and leave the camera for a
certain time period, you will need to reset the clock.
See page 3-7 to use the LCD monitor to set the clock.
You can also set the clock from your computer. For
instructions, see your digital camera software manual.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
The color in your picture does not look right.
When you take pictures under certain artificial lighting
conditions, the colors may be slightly distorted. You can
use image-editing software to adjust color.
When you want to get more realistic colored images,
for example, reddish images at dusk, set the white
balance mode to FIXED. For instructions, see
page 3-5.
Your pictures do not look as good as they used to.
Your camera's lens may be dirty or dusty. Try
cleaning it following the instructions on page 6-1.
The area captured in the photo is different from
what you saw in the viewfinder.
Take care to look straight through the viewfinder.
When taking photos in macro mode, we recommend
you use the LCD monitor rather than the viewfinder
to frame your subject.
Keep in mind that the area visible through the
viewfinder is slightly smaller than the area captured
in the actual photo.
