Sometimes the internal settings can affect this.
Go to the menus.
Then find a setting which is something like:
Return to factory settings or,
Reset all to Default or,
Many of these point and shoot Canons have settings:
func. set: Make sure it is not set to some setting for inside, florescent, etc.These will affect the bright settings.
Also, if there is no reset for default factory settings, then go through all the menus, including the ones in the Func. Set. -- Usually in the "joy-stick" center.

Why is Mr Slim MS-SGF24VC outdoor unit working when indoor unit off

Possibly a bad control board in the outdoor unit. Pull the disconnect outside to stop machine, wait 10 seconds and out back in. White mist was likely frost built up on indoor coil due to condenser running without the fan.

Help, my camera seems to work ok , but if i take a photo outside and then look at the photo that i have taken it is all white , it works well indoors ??

Hello,

One possibility that you have to check is the outdoor setting of your camera, it may have been set on a night mode that's why it's capturing too much light or it may be on an indoor mode that do not allow you to take outdoor pictures, just double check the setting or restore the default setting and it's best if you read the manual to help you set it up the way you desire.

What are the optimal settings for my digital camera? I have a brand new Canon PowerShot 12.1-Megapixel Digital ELPH camera, but I've been really disappointed in the quality of pictures it takes. For...

Small white circles usually means dust on the lens.  Remove the dust with a blowerbrush - not a tissue.
You are asking for a "1 size fits all" solution for your settings, and indoor and outdoor use really means different settings.  What you should be looking for is the "White Balance" setting - on Auto it will be about right, most of the time.  You should be able to switch between indoor/outdoor settings (but they may be called portrait and landscape, or similar) and you will have to look through the menus for this.

Casio Exilim s500--horizontal lines in picture and autofocus creates blurry pics

It appears this problem is due a failing CCD device in many brand cameras. All the manufactures use the same source(s). I have not persued Casio as yet, but other companies are offering a recall to replace the CCD for free. I plan to use this approach with Casio. Search the web for "failing CCD in digital camera", it describes exactly what we are observing.
