A Taking Pictures
22
• The image comes out dark even if the flash fired when shooting?
The subject is too far away for the flash to reach. Shoot within the effective flash
range of approximately 30 cm – 4.0 m (12 in. – 13 ft.) at maximum wide angle,
and approximately 30 cm – 2.0 m (12 in. – 6.6 ft.) at maximum telephoto.
• The indicator blinks yellow and the camera beeps once when the shutter
button is pressed halfway?
When the camera is at maximum wide angle, move about 3 cm (1.2 in.) or more
away from your subject and shoot. Move about 30 cm (12 in.) or more away
when the camera is at maximum telephoto.
• The lamp lights when the shutter button is pressed halfway.
To reduce red-eye and to assist in focusing, the lamp may light when shooting in
dark areas.
• The screen turns off when you try to take an image?
When flash recharging begins, the screen turns off. The screen turns on again
when recharging ends.

Under certain conditions, the icon that displays may not match the actual
scene. Especially when there is an orange or blue colored background (a
wall for example), or the “Blue Skies” icons may appear and it may
not be possible to shoot with the appropriate color. If this happens, try
shooting in the G mode (p. 64).
