Photos are coming grainy, with lack of color and vibrancy.

Try pre-focusing by holding the shutter button down halfway to ensure a sharp focus.

Pictures tend to be blurry when the available light is from a tungsten (incandescent, standard light bulb). To correct that, try finding natural source of lighting when taking the pictures.

If lighting is scarce, the camera tries to adapt by being more sensitive. As a result, pictures may tend to be grainy. To avoid this, add more light to the scene.

When taking photos, a light does not emit from the camera lens. Photos may appear dark or blurry as a result.

Please note: Flash does not fire in all camera modes. If problem persists see Using the flash.

Check the flash setting and change it if needed.
