16. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION (FAQs)
1.
I always take poor quality images at home, why?
It may be due to insufficient light intensity at your home. Try to increase the illumination of your
home when taking images. Or, use the flash in insufficient light environment.
2.
Why would I get dark images even when the images are taken outdoors?
The objects may be in a shade, for example, under a tre
e, or the camera lens is pointing at a bright
section such as the sky.
3.
How can I avoid getting dark images?
Pay attention to the background light intensity as it will affect the exposure of the main object. The
camera can calculate the total light intensity of the image and fine-adjust the exposure. If the
background is too dark, the object will be too bright. If the background is too bright, the object will
be too dark.
4.
Why would I get fuzzy, unclear images?
There might be some movements of your body or hands when taking images. Hold the camera
steadily with both hands. Use the first finger of your right hand to press the shutter. Stand on solid
ground. Do not move or run when pressing the shutter. Even tiny movements will result in fuzzy
images.
5.
Why would I get some blurry areas in an image?
You may have covered part of the lens when taking the image. Or there may be some grease on the
lens. Remove it with a dry and soft cloth.
6.
Why would I get horizontal, black stripes in images taken abroad?
The camera is set to your country
’
s AC mains frequency (e.g. 50Hz for Europe). If you take images
under an electric light source in another country with a different frequency (e.g. 60Hz for US), you
will get horizontal, black stripes in those images, due to incorrect mains frequency. There will be no
problems when taking images under sunlight.
7.
Can I take images in dark environment?
Use strobe flash in dark environment.
8.
Can I take close-up shots of an object?
Yes, if it is more than 1.2m away. The object will be out of focus at a distance less than 1m away.
9.
Can I use this camera as a PC camera (web cam)?
Yes, if there is a USB port on your computer and appropriate software, such as Microsoft
NetMeeting, is used.
