hp photosmart 210 digital camera user’s guide
The subject in the
center of the photo was
very light.
The camera sets the exposure based on the object in
the center of the frame. If the surrounding area is
darker than the subject, the photo will be
underexposed.
Point the camera at a dark subject in the center of the
photo and press the
shutter
button half way down
until the green light appears. Re-aim your camera at
your intended subject and press the
shutter
button all
the way down.
My photo turned
out too bright.
The flash provided too
much light.
Change the flash setting to Auto or Off.
You were too close to
the subject.
Set the flash to Off and take the photo again.
There was too much
light provided by a
natural or artificial
source other than the
flash.
Try taking the photo from a different angle. Avoid
pointing the camera directly toward a bright light or
reflective surface on a sunny day. Use the Fill Flash
setting if there is light behind your subject.
