My friend's Nikon Coolpix L4 is overexposing all still shots, no
matter what scene or white balance setting, flash or no flash, bright
sun or cloudy. The only photos that look okay are those taken in very
dim light. The exposure on movies is fine. The LCD looks normal in
any mode. I've tried setting the exposure compensation level manually
but that doesn't work either. Nikon doesn't have a firmware file for
this camera on their web site. Can anyone offer any suggestions?
Thanks!!!


Try resetting the camera to its factory defaults and try again, without
changing any of the settings first. Put the camera on a table and press
the shutter button with one finger, so there's no chance you're obstructing
the exposure meter. If it still fails, get it fixed under warranty.
