In certain cases, due to static electricity or poorly loaded batteries, the FinePix S2 Pro
microcomputer may turn the camera off, even with fresh, properly installed batteries. For the same
reason, the operation of camera may not advance properly during either "USB mode" or "IEEE1394
mode". In each of these cases, to resume operation, simply turn the power off, then turn it on
again. Or, remove and reinstall the batteries.
Remedy
i Switch the camera off, close the slot cover,
switch the camera back on and try again.
i Switch the camera off and replace the AA-
size batteries or load new AA-size batteries.
Then switch the camera back on and try
again.
i Switch the camera off and replace the lithium
batteries. Then switch the camera back on
and try again.
If this does not resolve the problem, set the
focusing mode to "M", release the shutter and
briefly switch the camera off.
