Q&A Troubleshooting

Battery, power

The camera does not work even if the power is turned on. ●●The battery is not inserted correctly (→18), or needs recharging.

The monitor switches itself off even if the power is turned on. The camera switches itself off as soon as the power is turned on. ●●[Opt. Viewfinder] is set to [ON].

→ Press the [DISP] button to switch to the monitor display. ●●An external viewfinder display is selected.

The camera switches itself off automatically.

●●If you connect to a TV compatible with HDTV Link (HDMI) with the HDMI mini cable (available as accessory (→8)) and turn off the power on the TV with its remote control, the power on the camera also turns off.

→ If you are not using HDTV Link (HDMI), set [HDTV Link] to [OFF]. (→40)

Recording

I cannot record pictures.

●●The built-in memory/the card is full.

→ Free space by deleting unwanted pictures (→163).

The recorded pictures look white. ●●The lens is dirty (fingerprints, etc.).

→Turn on power to extend the lens barrel, and clean the lens surface with a soft, dry cloth. ●●The lens is foggy (→6).

The recorded pictures are too bright/too dark. ●●Adjust the exposure (→124).

●●[Min. Shtr Speed] is set to fast speed. Check the setting (→141).

Several pictures are taken when I press the shutter button just once. ●●The following functions are set.

[Burst Shooting] (→118) [WB Bracket] (→114) [Aspect Bracket] (→122) [Auto Bracket] (→125)

The focusing is not correct.

●●The camera is not set to mode appropriate for the distance to the subject. (The focusing range varies according to recording mode.)

●●The subject is outside of the focusing range. (→96, 102)

●●This may be caused by camera shake or subject movement. (→142)

The recorded pictures are blurred. The Optical Image Stabilizer ineffective.

●●The shutter speed is slower in dark locations and the Optical Image Stabilizer is less effective. → Hold the camera firmly with both hands, keeping the arms close to the body.

●●Use a tripod and the self-timer (→116) when using slower shutter speeds with [Min. Shtr Speed].
