Troubleshooting
We recommend checking the following items before contacting a service center.
Replace with a charged battery set or use the AC adapter
(SAC-82, optional). (p.26)
Set the Aperture Ring to the A position or set the [Use
Aperture Ring] on the [CUSTOM2 MENU] to [On].
Wait until charging is finished.
Insert Memory Card with available space or delete
unwanted images. (p.38, 98)
Wait until recording is finished.
Autofocus cannot focus well on subjects that have low
contrast (the sky, white walls), dark colours, intricate
designs, are moving quickly or scenery shot through a
window or a net-like pattern.
Lock focus on another object located at same distance
(press shutter release button halfway), then aim at target
and press shutter release button fully. Alternatively, use
manual focus. (p.197)
Position subject in focus frame in middle of viewfinder.
If the subject is outside the focusing area aim the camera
at the subject and lock the focus (press shutter release
button halfway), then compose picture and press the
shutter release button fully.
Move away from the subject and take a picture.
