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.
