Troubleshooting
Image is blurred or out of focus.
AF-assist Beam is set to
[Off].
In dark places where it is difficult for
the camera to focus, the AF-assist
Beam will emit to assist focusing. As
the AF-assist Beam will not function
when turned off, set it [On] to activate it
(p. 27). Take care not to obstruct the
AF-assist Beam with your hand when
used.
The camera moves when
the shutter button is
pressed.
Set IS mode to a setting other than
[Off] (p. 35).
Setting the self-timer to
(2 seconds) delays the shutter
release for 2 seconds and allows the
camera to stop shaking, thus
preventing a blurred image (p. 41).
Even better results can be obtained
by placing the camera on a stable
surface or by using a tripod to shoot.
