Exposure, color and light conditions
Good exposure for your photos requires the right amount of light. The camera
automatically detects and adjusts to ambient light conditions.
Dierent exposures are required, for example, when taking photos of faces,
moving objects or in low light.
Optimizing light conditions
• Look for light with direction and color that gives a scene shape and depth. This
type of light occurs just before sunrise and at sunset. Natural light from a window
is also good.
• For higher quality photos in low light, you need to keep the camera steady. You
can place the camera on a solid surface and use the self-timer.
• Even if light conditions are poor, try to take photos with and without the ash.
Sometimes the quality is better without the ash.
To use the ash
1 When using the camera, tap the ash icon displayed on the screen, for example
(Auto ash ic
on).
2 If required, change the ash setting.
3 Tap the shutter button to take a photo or record a video.
Note
Available settings depend on the capturing mode selected.
Hint
When the background is brighter than the object, use Fill ash to remove unwanted dark
shadows.
