dark color in the corner of my images

13 years 1 month ago #37807 by wedding 2015
For alot of my pictures, when I view them on my computer, I see all 4 corners are dark. It's just the corners, no where else. Why is that? What am I doing wrong or do I need to replace the camera?

sounds like something that would appear when using a kit lens. But I couldn't be for sure unless you post a pic of what you are talking about.

I have just found something about corner correction in my manual for the new DSLR. You might look there first. Wide angle lens might be a source of the problem... Shooting a light at the end of a tunnel or interiors shots might be a source. Bad glass... The list goes on I'm sure. Tell us more about the camera and lens. Post a few of the photos for evaluation. :watching:

The effect is called vignetting and is cause by the lens being wide open. Many zooms will do this on the wide side. It is not the fault of the camera you can even do a test to see where it stops my shooting the same bright scene from a tripod and zooming the lens out and comparing the photos to see where it stops.

A filter that extends out from the lens can add to "problem".

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.

Joves is right. Another thing that can do it is using a lens hood when shooting at the widest setting. Although the "petal" hoods are suppose to eliminate that, they don't always.
