Troubleshooting

If the LCD image is not clear when shooting, how can the focus be adjusted? Try to switch between Macro and Normal Mode.(Macro Mode: For object in distance about 0.67 feet. Normal Mode: For object in distance beyond 6.7 feet)

The files on the memory card do not display smoothly when the LCD shows the “!” marking.

The” !” means the SD card is low speed or has wrong content inside. The way to solve this condition is to format SD card by camera instead of

PC. (Please read the detail Format instruction in User’s Manual- Section 5).
