Depending on the subject, an interference fringe may appear on the screen.

White round spots like soap bubbles appear on the recorded picture.

●If you take a picture with the flash in a dark place or indoors, white round spots may appear on the picture caused by the flash reflecting particles of dust in the air. This is not a fault. A characteristic of this is that the number of round spots and their position differ in every picture.

[THUMBNAIL IS DISPLAYED] is shown on the screen.

●The pictures may have been recorded on another device. If so, they may be displayed with poor picture quality.
