Troubleshooting

If you put the menu back to the settings at the time of purchase, the conditions may be improved.

Carry out the [RESET] in the [SETUP] menu. (P23)

Batteries and the power source

1:The camera is turned off immediately even when the battery power is full. The battery indication shows less than the actual remaining battery power even if new batteries are inserted.

Is [BATTERY TYPE] selected correctly?

Select the item on [BATTERY TYPE] in the [SETUP] menu. (P23)

2:The camera cannot be operated even when it is turned on.

Are the batteries inserted correctly?

Use batteries that have been sufficiently charged when you use Ni-MH batteries.

3:The LCD monitor is turned off even when the camera is turned on.

Is the power save mode (P23) or economy mode (P53) activated?

Press the shutter button halfway to cancel these modes.

Are the batteries exhausted?

Replace them with batteries which have enough capacity. (When you use Ni-MH batteries, charge them.)

4:The LCD monitor is turned off sometimes when the camera is turned on.

Is the LCD monitor turned off soon after you take pictures with the flash?

While the flash is being charged, the LCD monitor is turned off.

5:The camera is turned off immediately even after it is turned on.

Are the batteries exhausted?

Replace them with batteries which have enough capacity. (When you use Ni-MH batteries, charge them.)

If you leave the camera with turning it on, the batteries are exhausted. Turn the camera off frequently by using the economy mode (P53), the power save mode (P23), etc.

Recording

1:The picture cannot be recorded.

Is the mode dial correctly set?

Is there any memory capacity left on the built-in memory or the card?

Before recording, delete some pictures.

2:The subject is not focused properly.

The focus range varies depending on the recording mode.

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

Is the subject out of the focus range? (P32)

When you cannot focus on the subject even if you tried many times, turn the camera off once and turn it on again.

3:The recorded picture is blurred.

When taking a picture in shaded areas or indoors, the shutter speed becomes slow and the optical image stabilizer function may not work properly. In this case, we recommend holding the camera with both hands firmly to take pictures. When the [SLOW SHUTTER] (P66) is set, we recommend using a tripod.
