Q&A Troubleshooting

Lens

Recorded image may be warped, or nonexistent color is surrounding the subject. ●●It is possible that the subject may be warped slightly, or the borders get colored, depending on

the zoom magnification, due to the characteristics of the lens. Also, the peripherals of the image might look warped because the perspective is enhanced when the wide angle is used. This is not a malfunction.

LCD monitor/Viewfinder

Pictures do not show on the LCD monitor. ●●The camera is set for viewfinder display.

→ Press [LVF] button and switch to LCD monitor display.

Brightness is unstable.

●●Aperture value is set while shutter button is pressed halfway. (Does not affect recorded picture.) This symptom may also occur when the brightness changes because the zoom is operated or the camera is moved. This is the automatic aperture operation of the camera and is not a malfunction.

Monitor flickers indoors.

●●The LCD monitor may flicker for a few seconds after turning on. This is an operation to correct flicker caused by lighting such as fluorescent lights, LED lights etc. and is not a malfunction.

Monitor is too bright/too dark.

●●[Monitor Luminance] is activated. (→63)

●●Use [Monitor Display] / [Viewfinder] to adjust the brightness of the LCD monitor. (→63)

Black, red, blue and green dots appear on the LCD monitor. ●●This is not a fault, and will not be recorded on the actual pictures.

Noise appears on the LCD monitor.

●●In dark places, noise may appear to maintain the brightness of the LCD monitor. This does not affect the pictures you are recording.

Cannot switch between the LCD monitor and viewfinder when pressing [LVF] button. ●●When it is connected to a computer or printer, the camera can display pictures on the LCD monitor

only.
