I just got a A630.

1. Whever I use the Flash, the 4 corners of the picture is darker. The flash is brighter towards the center. When I run the picture thro' ZoomBrowser & brighten the picture this effect becomes more dominant.
I take a lot of indoor pictures with the Fill-in Flash most of the time. I tried different shooting modes. I am within 4-5 feet from the subject

2. The skin tone of the subject seems darker more yellowish.

Settings I use are

  • LightMetering: Evaluative
  • ISO Speed: 200
  • White Balance: Custom
  • AF Mode: Single AF
  • AF Assit Beam Off
With my Sony DSC-T50 this effect is negligible & cannot be easily detected. Also the subject skin tone is more pink.

When I increase the Flash levels, the subject will be too bright & that does not help much.

I really don't want to buy an external flash. It will be too bulky for my needs. Is there any tweaking that I can do to get this effect out?
