Questions and Answers

Q: What kind of batteries should I use?

A:Use two lithium Panasonic CR-123A batteries or Duracell DL-123A batteries. Don't install one new battery with an old one. Change them both at the same time.

Q: How long will the batteries last?

A:Since long-life lithium batteries are used, approximately 20 rolls (24-exposure, half the shots with flash) can be taken. When the

frequency with which the flash and zoom are

51used is less, the batteries will last longer.

Q:The camera does not work. What should I do?

A:(1) Make sure the power switch is set to ON.

(2)Check to make sure that the batteries are loaded and inserted correctly.

(3)If the film has been rewound, the camera won't work until new film is inserted.

Q:The camera does not focus correctly. What should I do?

A:The camera may not focus correctly in some cases. Focusing is difficult when, for example, the subject is moving quickly, if the camera is shaking, or if the subject is one of those with which focusing is difficult. (See "Subjects with which autofocus is difficult" on p. 44)

Q:Why doesn't the camera focus although the AF Illuminator lights?

A:It may not focus if the subject is too close, too far or if the subject reflects too little light (when it is blue or black).

Q:Why won't the shutter fire when I press the

shutter release button.

A:(1) Probably because the camera hasn't focused. Check the AF indicator in the Viewfinder.

(2)The flash may still be in the process of

charging. Check for the mark in the Viewfinder.

Q:The flash doesn't fire. What should I do?

A:Check to make sure if the flash has popped up.

Q:The camera does not operate in cold weather.

What can I do?

A:Battery performance will be reduced temporarily by low temperatures, so it is recommended that you try to use the camera within a reasonable temperature range.
