Problems taking photos at night.


posted by Monty1966 on Jul 23, 2008


Hi, I hope someone can help?? I have just come back from my hols and had great probs taking photos with my camera at night. I tried various settings but nothing seemed to work. The photo's were coming out an Orange/Yellow colour and blurry.
Any suggestions or is there a fault with my camera? No one else seemed to be having the same problem.
Thanks
Julez

Did you use flash? Did you use tripod? Generally speaking night photos with non-DSLR digital camera, W55 is non-DSLR, will be blurry unless either flash is used or a tripod is used. The issue is the camera shutter is set for a long exposure in order to get enough light that it is impossible to hold the camera steady. The color problem you mentioned is most likely your white balance. Normal white balance is sunlight at night you white balance should be Auto, Incandescent or Neon
