Hold the camera correctly and press the shutter button gently to shoot the
picture. In addition, turn the mode dial to
h
when taking a picture to reduce
blurring.
The factors that can cause the picture to blur are as follows:
• When you use the optical zoom, digital zoom, or zoom at such higher
magnifications to shoot the picture
• When the shutter speed is set low to shoot a dark subject
• When the flash cannot be used or a low shutter speed set shooting mode is
selected.
The flash fires automatically when there is insufficient light or when blurring may
occur. If the subject is too far away, the flash may have no effect. Here is how to
take pictures without the flash in this type of situation.
Set the camera to
h
mode
• Because the sensitivity of the CCD increases automatically, you can hold the
camera and take pictures in darker places with the flash off.

There are several factors that can cause the picture to appear grainy.
Using the digital zoom to take close-up pictures
• With the digital zoom, part of the image is cropped and enlarged. The greater
the magnification, the grainier the picture appears.

• When taking pictures with the above scene modes, noise reduction can be
automatically turned on for clearer pictures of dark subjects. If noise reduction
does not turn on, the picture may appear grainy.
• Often, bright subjects (such as snow) turn out darker than their natural colors.
Adjust [EXPOSURE COMP.] toward [+] to make these subjects closer to their
real shades. Conversely, when you are shooting dark subjects, it can be
effective to adjust toward [–]. Sometimes, using the flash may not produce the
brightness (exposure) that was intended.
