How I can turn down the flash on my Nikon Coolpix S60?
I have a Nikon Coolpix S60 and my flash is the way to bright. Is there any way reduce bright flash? It also seems to have only clear images when you want when the lighting is not perfect. Is there any way to solve these problems? In fact, I'm not very happy with this camera since I got it last year and am looking for another if I can not get this one to improve.
Consider that the flash is very bright … It is a common problem, if you're pulling dirty environments. By default, almost all cameras in the "dirty" environments bright flash! The trick is that if your camera has an "EV" option to try to adjust before taking the photos. It should allow you to get the atmosphere correct. As you take clear photos indoors with a tripod may not be practical, but you can try to stabilize itself against the walls, pillars, etc. Ah, and try to make sure you are getting the focus locked on the correct item from the scene – if necessary you need to aim the camera directly on the object want to focus and press the shutter half. Then, holding down the shutter half composing the image. Hope it helps, is the best I can suggest. I'm not a fan of Nikon's S60 has similar pacts issues Sony T-series. I fear that more conventional compact cameras (Nikon included) tend to produce better results.
