Possible cause
The camera
has stopped
operating.
The optional
memory card is
not a
supported card
or is corrupted.
Different
operating
modes of the
camera require
different power
levels.
The Lithium Ion
battery has
drained on its
own because it
has not been
used lately.
Solution
Reset the camera (see
page 136).
Ensure that the memory card is
the proper type for your camera
(see page 203). If the card is the
proper type, remove the memory
card and see if you can turn on
the camera. If you can turn on the
camera with the memory card
removed, then the card is
probably corrupted. Format the
memory card using your
computer. If the camera still does
not turn on, replace the memory
card.
See Power Indicators on
page 188 for a full explanation.
A Lithium Ion battery discharges
on its own when not in use and
when not installed in the camera.
So, if you have not used it in two
months or more, it may benefit
from being charged (see
page 183).
