Questions and answers

Q: What kind of batteries should I use?

A:Use two 3V lithium batteries (DL123A or CR123A). Do not mix new and old batteries at the same time. Change them both at the same time.

Q: How long will the battery last?

A:If you use 24-exposure rolls of film and expose half of all your pictures with flash, two new 3V lithium batteries (DL 123A/CR123A) will allow you to take 30 or more rolls of film. If you do not use flash and zoom so often, the batteries will last much longer.

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

A:(1)Make sure the power switch is ON. (2)Make sure there are batteries in the camera, and that they are inserted correctly. (Refer to page 6.) (3)If the film has been rewound, the camera will not operate until the back cover is opened. (4)While the flash is being charged, the shutter will not release. (5)If the distance range to the subject is less than 0.6m, the shutter will not release.

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

A:(1)In the following situations, the camera's autofocus mechanism may not function properly. Compose your picture by focusing on a different subject which is in the

same range as your subject.

Objects that reflect too much light Black objects Pictures taken through a glass window or wire screening

Pictures including flames or smoke When the sun is included in the picture

(2)Use the focus lock when the subject is not in the center of the picture. (Refer to P.25)

Q:The flash does not fire.

A: Make sure the flash mode is not set to OFF mode.

Q: The camera fails to operate in cold weather. What can I

do?

before using them. 46
