1. Out of focus

Accidentally focused on the wrong object in your photo? How about not enough focus?

2. Overexposed

You're shooting in the afternoon. The lighting in your scene is either too bright or dark for your camera to balance the exposure it needs to capture a clear impression.

3. Colour balance

You're taking a photo of nature or the outdoors and the camera is misreading the various colours in the scene.

4. Blurring

You're at the raceway and you want to take a photo of the racing bikes. Your object is moving too quickly for the camera to capture a clear impression.
