Troubleshooting Guide

The access lamp still blinks even when the power switch is set to <2>.

If the power is turned off while an image is being recorded to the card, the access lamp will remain on/continue to blink for a few seconds. When the image recording is completed, the power will turn off automatically.

The battery becomes exhausted quickly.

Use a fully-charged battery pack (p.28).

The battery performance may have degraded. See [54: Battery info.] to check the battery’s recharge performance level (p.334). If the battery performance is poor, replace the battery pack with a new one.

The number of possible shots will decrease with any of the following operations:

•Pressing the shutter button halfway for a prolonged period.

•Often activating only the AF without taking a picture.

•Using the lens’ Image Stabilizer.

•Using the LCD monitor often.

•Continuing Live View shooting or movie shooting for a prolonged period.

•The Eye-Fi card’s transmission is enabled.

•GPS is enabled.

The camera turns off by itself.

Auto power off is in effect. If you do not want auto power off to take effect, set [52: Auto power off] to [Disable] (p.55).

Even if [52: Auto power off] is set to [Disable], the LCD monitor will still turn off after the camera is left idle for 30 min. (The camera’s power does not turn off.)
