my fujifilm finepix a405 camera has started taking really bright pics .any settings i can adjust to improve?

Question

it only started doing it one day ..never had a prob before ..takes good pics indoors .but they are really bright and a slight blur occurs when i take a pic outside ...any help would be very much appreciated... thanx

Answer 1

Maybe you (inadvertently) changed a setting. I can think of three things that would cause your pictures to come out too bright:
* If you've set the camera to fully manual (M), in stead of letting the camera measure the correct exposure. Most cameras have a PASM dial: P(rogram does it all), A(perture priority), S(hutter priority), M(anual).
* If you have an 'ev' setting to adjust the exposure meter, and you've set the ev to any value bigger than zero. Zero is the default.
* A manual white balance setting. Set it to Automatic.
Check these first; it could also explain the slight blur you're getting.

Answer 2

A few questions to ask:
Does the camera have setting for?
Exposure compensation
Gamma
Manual or auto settings
If you have locked the exposure compensation to + it will give bright images the higher the exposure comp no. the brighter the image.
Gamma settings are another way of brightening or darkening a pic. set it to 1
have you got the shutter speed set too slow?
Have you got the aperture set too wide?

Answer 3

Set the ev (Exposure value) back to zero, the maximum ev+ is +2.0 and the lower ev- is -2.0. If ev toward + , the picture will became brighter.
