Problem with digital camera?

Question

I have a canon Elf 300 and I havent had any problems until recently. I dont know if I hit something or if there is something wrong with the lens or maybe i need a new battery? The pictures are coming out brighter than usual and very grainy. I have tried putting all the settings back to their default but its still the same. Any help!?

Answer 1

You may have your ISO set far too high.  Using your cameras menu, set the ISO to 100 and then try shooting again outdoors.  That should do the trick

If your images are still overexposed, then call Canon USA's free help line, (800) OK-CANON
