A Taking Pictures
26
• 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 – 3.5 m (12 in. – 11 ft.) at maximum wide angle,
and approximately 45 cm – 2.0 m (1.5 – 6.6 ft.) at maximum telephoto.
• The indicator blinks orange and the camera beeps once when the shutter
button is pressed halfway?
Your subject is too close. 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
45 cm (1.5 ft.) 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 h icon blinks when you try to take an image?
When flash recharging begins, the flash icon will blink. You will be able to shoot
once charging is complete.

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. 66).
