Cause/Solution
• The flash is lowered or the flash mode is set to
W (off).
• Scene mode with which the flash does not fire is
selected.
• On is selected for Blink proof in smart portrait
menu.
• Another function that restricts flash is enabled.
• Digital zoom cannot be used in the following
situations.
- When Portrait, Night portrait or Pet portrait
is selected for scene mode
- When smart portrait mode is selected
- When Continuous in the shooting menu is set
to Multi-shot 16
Another function that restricts the Image mode
option is enabled.
• Off is selected for Sound settings > Shutter
sound in the setup menu. No sound is heard with
some shooting modes and settings, even when On
is selected.
• Do not block the speaker.
Off is selected for AF assist in the setup menu. AF-
assist illuminator may not light depending on the
current scene mode, even when Auto is selected.
Lens is dirty. Clean lens.
White balance or hue is not adjusted properly.
The subject is dark, so shutter speed is too slow or ISO
sensitivity is too high. Noise can be reduced by:
• Using flash.
• Specifying a lower ISO sensitivity setting.
