Question about Olympus Camedia C-350 Digital Camera

Tilted pictures

I`ve had this camera for about a month now, up until now no problems. Today I took a number of shots and the majority of them are tilted to the right, some quite noticable. This has never happened before. You`ll have to bare with me, I`m a novice to digital photography. The camera has taken some fine pictures and is everything I need. I can compensate for the tilt using PSP7 but that`s still not answering the problem. The camera has never been dropped.

First you should verify your findings by taking some photos with the camera sitting on a level surface. Check for level while viewing through the viewfinder and also while viewing the LCD screen on the back of the camera. When you are sure that everything looks level, take several pictures. If the pictures are out of plumb, something inside the camera has shifted. This is not fixable by you. The camera should still be under warranty. When you send the camera for warranty repair, be sure to print the pictures and include them with the camera. You might first check to see if you can still return it to the store where you made the purchase (take along the purchase receipt). Let them see the pictures.

Why are my photos blurry?

There are only three reasons photos look blurry: poor focus, shaking the cameral during the shot, or trying to take a photo of a fast-moving subject with a slow-speed camera.

You can usually see focus problems on the display before you take the picture, so that doesn't appear to be your issue. On the other hand, movement of camera or subject happens during the shot, so you'll only see that in the completed photo.

Camera movement first. Many cameras today have built-in "anti-shake" circuits that sense when you're the problem -- you're moving the camera during the shot. The best ones are very good at eliminating shakiness, but even they can't overcome large movement, as when you mash down the button to take the picture. If yours doesn't have anti-shake, or it isn't very well implemented, you'll just have to practice pushing gently on the button and holding the camera very still until it finishes the shot.

As for subject movement -- well, more sophisticated cameras offer ways to capture kids bouncing on a trampoline with a minimum of blurriness, but it's always going to be a problem.

If you don't want to switch to one of the more sophisticated cameras from a major brand, practice holding the camera steady during every shot and avoid shooting fast-moving subjects.

Take no more pics until you've recovered your photos, take the card out of the camera. This is to reduce the chance of you overwriting some of your "lost" photos. There are many good freeware photo recovery software options that may help you recover your photos. This article reviews and outlines several of the better ones. Now after you've recovered your photos, consider formatting the card in the camera to prevent this from happening again.

Did you format the card in the camera before you tried to use it? Also, go into the menu and scroll to "reset" and follow the on-screen instructions.

We had similiar problems with ours until we started making sure the camera was kept warm when it was shut off. For some reason, it and the batteries don't like the cold...we were able to extend the battery life if we kept it covered when we weren't using it.
