Why doesn't my camera focus?

My camera does not focus. If I were to take a picture of a paper with writing on it, it would not be clear. why?

Did you do any of the basic troubleshooting steps as described in the User Guide, Appendix B - restart, reset, restore?

  • Why doesn't the camera kit I bought fit into my iPad dock?

    Why doesn't the camera kit I bought fit into my iPad dock?

    Maybe you purchased the wrong item.
    iPads that have the 25 pin connector use the original Camera Connection Kit. That kit has two parts and adapter to allow you to insert SD cards and a second adapter to connect a USB cord from your camera. Here's a link to that kit:

    Newer iPads have the Lightning connector. You have two choices for those iPads. If you want to read SD card purchase a Lightning to SD Card Camera Reader.

    Or you can connect your iPad directly to your camera with a Lightning to USB Camera Adapter.

  • Why doesn't my camera roll have places option?

    I have a 3GS with the 4.3.3 OS.  In my camera roll, I do not have the "PLACES" option.  Most of my friends have iPhones of various models and OS's and they all have this feature.  I've scoured my settings and options and am at a total loss.  Anyone have any information or tips or tricks?  Thanks in advance, A

  • Why doesn't the camera app on my iPad (4th Gen) with iOS7.02  doesn't show panorama option ?

    I have updated my iPad 4 ( WiFi & GPRS) with iOS 7.02. The Apple website's "know more on iOS7" clearly displays availability of Panorama option under Camera section. But the camera app, which otherwise works fine on my iPad, doesn't show panorama option ?  Is it that it is available only on Phone 5S? How may I get this option.

    iPhone 4S, 5, 5C, 5S, & iPod Touch 5th generation only.

  • Why doesn't the camera work the lock screen sometimes?

    When I launch the camera app from the lock screen on my iphone (4), one of three things happens.
    Sometimes the preview is really small, like this

    http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac1/drtoffeejr/IMG_2359.png
    this doesn't affect the actual size of the pictures however. Meaning if I take a picture while it's like that then swipe over to look at it, it is the normal size. I have also found that this part can be fixed by switching the the front camera then back to the rear camera.
    The second thing that could happen is that the animation of the lens opening will freeze while it's still closed, meaning I can't see anything besides the closed lens picture.
    The third thing that could happen is that it works fine.
    These problems only seem to happen when I launch the camera from the lock screen as I have never had anything like that happen when I use the app after unlocking my phone.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    That is a new one. I haven't seen that before. You might have a hardware problem. Also may want to try to restore the phone and see if that fixes the problem. Also have you restarted the phone by holding the home button and the sleep/wake switch ignoring the swipe to power off message and then powering up the phone again?

  • Why doesn't my camera work properly after backing up ISO7

    Can anyone tell me hy my camera will not work after updating to ISO7.0.3.  It appears in negative all the time.  Unable to see any adjustments on my settings.

    Nothing? Just left to resort to the 'geniuses'?

  • Why doesn't my front camera work

    Why doesn't my front camera work

    Camera
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

  • Why doesn't my macbook support ny camera Sony DSC-WX300 as it used to?

    why doesn't my macbook support ny camera Sony DSC-WX300 as it used to? I can't download any of my pictures or videos

    Were you importing them into Aperture or IPHOTO - or were you using Sony Software?
    I have A Kodak Easy Share - when I purchased a new mac - did not install the Kodak software - just switched to using IPHOTO to do the import.
    -- Reason I stopped using the software - it was easier to export all of the photos I chose to keep out of Iphoto onto desktop for Photoshop editing and filing.

  • Why doesn't my version of Photoshop or Lightroom support my camera?

    For a complete overview on camera support in Photoshop and Lightroom, read Jeff Tranberry's article Why doesn't my version of Photoshop or Lightroom support my camera?

    Hmph... It does not work for me, when I click Update in CS6, it says all applications are up to date! That then shows Camera Raw being 7.3...
    I then launched LR 4.3 and was greeted with the update to 4.4, which worked perfectly fine.
    I returned to CS6 and checked again, to no avail...
    So my LR is now stating 4.4 and Camera Raw 7.4, however CS6 is still showing Camera Raw 7.3!
    Any ideas, or help?
    I own perpetual license and am working on OSX 10.8.3, for all it matter.

  • Why Doesn't Premiere Elements 12 Recognize My Sony AVCHD Camera?

    This is my first attempt at using Premiere Elements 12.  Unfortunately, it is not recognizing my Sony HDR AVCHD format camera.  It uses a san disk.  I get a message "No supported devices detected".  It does find the jpg photos, though.
    So I directly loaded the MTS files onto my iMac and created a DVD.  It looked pretty good, but not as good as playing the camera directly on a TV.  I found something on another Adobe site that indicated if there were problems with Premiere reading from the card that the files could be loaded to the hard drive.  It said "Be sure to copy the entire file structure of the card instead if just the clips".  I'm not sure what that means.  All I did was download the MTS files.
    So I really have 2 questions here -
    1 - why doesn't Premiere recognize my camera
    2- Is there something on the san card I missed downloading that could improve the quality of the DVD being created?
    Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Thanks for the reply and your additional comments and results.
    I think that we need to make distinctions between Quality (how good or bad the results looks or sounds to you) and Resolution (Frame Size, Display Size). Often the two can go side by side.
    What you are seeing at the camera level is 1080i which is interlaced video at 1920 x 1080 @ 29.97 interlaced frames per second. What you are seeing when you play back your finished DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc is based on 720 x 480 @ 29.97 interlaced frames per second (if standard 4:3) and 720 x 480 @ 29.97 interlaced frames per second accompanied by a 16:9 flag to stretch the 720 x 480 to 856 x 480 for display after encoding. Another factor is what the TV or computer player is doing to your interlaced video for viewing purposes - deinterlacing or not and with what method. Some TV's come with technology to enhance the DVD-VIDEO display. Most TVs larger than 32 to 42 in tend to show the differences between higher and lower resolution more readily.
    Since you have interlaced video source, each frame has two fields, with either Upper or Lower Field First. Your source probably is interlaced video with Upper Field First. Consequently, in the project, you may have to adjust that to Lower Field First if your destination is DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc which is characterized by Field Order Lower Field First. Something to look into for the "better" aspects considerations.
    Now if you decide to take your Timeline content to AVCHD format on DVD disc, note that the format of AVCHD format on DVD disc is different from that of the DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc (Instead of OpenDVD and VIDEO_TS Folder, you have the BDMV Folder). Your AVCHD on DVD disc will have resolution (Frame Size, Display Size) of 1920 x 1080 pixels. Under these circumstances, the capacity of the DVD disc can become a problem with larger projects. When you burn your Timeline content to AVCHD format on DVD disc, what is on the disc will be an 29.97 interlaced frames per second characterized by Upper Field First. So, if your interlaced source and the destination product both use Field Order Upper Field First, then no need for Field Options adjusts. However you do have one opportunity for a progressive frame rate for the AVCHD on DVD. It is not 29.97, rather 24. See Presets = H.264 1920 x 1080p NTSC Dolby in the AVCHD on DVD set up in Publish+Share/Disc AVCHD disc.
    I have generated some very great looking DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc (standard and widescreen) and have been very pleased with the results and how my viewers received them. The thought is getting the best possible DVD-VIDEO on DVD and enjoying it without laboring on how it might have looked as Blu-ray or AVCHD if you do not have Blu-ray and do not have a player for AVCHD on DVD disc.
    If you need clarification on any of the above, please let me know.
    Thanks.

    Add On...In post 3 marked in reply to me you wrote
    "On a side note, however, I'm not sure I agree with the statement that going to standard def would lose a lot of video quality"
    I did not write that in any of my posts to you. That is why I have gone through the detailed account to qualify that statement from wherever it came.

  • Why doesn't version 17.0.0.169 show up in IE11 8.1 64-bit Manage Add-Ons?

    KB3044132 shows as installed for Flash Player update, and the Control Panel Flash Player icon for 32-bit shows 17.0.0.169 installed (I have 64-bit and 32-bit), but the Manage Add-Ons for Shockwave is Enabled and showing version 17.0.0.134! When I check the version using Adobe it only shows 17.0.0 and not the important part, so I cannot tell if Adobe detects 17.0.0.169 or 17.0.0.134! I think I need to know if IE11 64-bit has 17.0.0.169 also. Please advise because Microsoft technical support says to contact Adobe about this. Please delete my entry in Adobe general forums, Bridge general discussion as michaelh94875078. I did not see Flash Player on the list of communities provided during my first post.

    It occurs to me that maybe Microsoft will not allow their 17.0.0.169 KBitem to go out until their next update on the second Tuesday of May for their convenience and reputation! I want any update for Flash Player to be installed immediately for security. That is why I tend to use Firefox with NoScript and Web of Trust when I use a Google search. I will be watching the next Microsoft update to note if the KBitem it said was not appropriate for my computer - goes in!

    Hi michaelh94875078,
    I'm sorry, I misread your previous post and thought it had been installed. From my experience with Microsoft Updates is that some times they depend on some update being installed.  I'll run Windows Updates and install all updates, then run Windows Updates again after all updates finish installing. Sometimes it finds new updates that weren't there before, and sometimes it doesn't.  You can try that route, or download the Microsoft update posted at the bottom of the Flash Player Issues | Windows 8 page.  Download the one that corresponds with your OS version. You may want to bookmark this tech note for future reference in case Microsoft Updates fails to detect the update is available for your system.

  • Camera focusing and resolution.

    Camera doesn't seem to focus and takes poor pictures.  what is wrong?

    iPad has a very low resolution camera for still pictures. It is not really meant to be used as a camera, more for video confrencing. For focusing you need to tap on the area you want clear and be careful not to move.

  • Why does my front camera flip my picture when it is saved?

    Why does my front camera flip my picture when it is saved? I need a solution to this problem asap.

    What is your current iOS version. I believe iOS 5.1.1, released just a few days ago, addresses a camera issue. Even if it doesn't directly mention it in the update description, it may solve the problem. Go to Settings > General > Software Update.
