∫Recording

1:The picture cannot be recorded.

•Is the card inserted?

•Is the mode dial correctly set?

•Is there any memory remaining on the built-in memory (DMC-FX3) or the card?

–Before recording, delete some pictures. (P34)

2:The recorded picture is whitish. The lens is dirty.

•The picture can become whitish if there is dirt e.g. fingerprints on the lens. If the lens is dirty, turn on the camera, eject the lens barrel (P10) and gently wipe the lens surface with a soft dry cloth.

3:The recorded picture is too bright or dark.

•Check that the exposure is correctly compensated. (P44)

4:2 or 3 pictures are taken at one time.

•Is auto bracket (P45) or burst mode set? (P47)

5:The subject is not focused properly.

•The focus range varies depending on the recording mode.

Rotate the mode dial to set the proper mode for the distance to the subject.

•Is the subject beyond the focus range of the camera? (P26)

•Have you taken a picture with jitter?

6:The recorded picture is blurred. The optical image stabilizer is not effective.

•The shutter speed will become slower and the optical image stabilizer function may not work properly when taking pictures especially in dark places. In this case, we recommend holding the camera firmly with both hands when taking pictures. (P25) When

[SLOW SHUTTER] (P77) is set, we recommend using a tripod and the self-timer (P43) when taking pictures.
