picture was taken.
The focus was not locked
beforetaking the picture.
Check that the Marco mode is not
selected.
The lens is dirty.
The subject is not located at the
center of the focus mark when
composing the image.
White balance is not set properly.
The white balance is not correctly
adjusted.
Memory is full.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION
So-called fresh batteries that have
been purchased a long time ago
cannot be considered fresh; as
battery power tends to drop over an
extended period of time.
Every once in a while battery
contacts need to be cleaned. Refer
to the Safety Tips and Maintenance
section (p. 71).
1. Hold camera steady until the
picture is taken.
2. Select the Sport capture mode
for fast-action-oriented subjects.
Before taking a picture, press the
Shutter Button halfway to lock the
focus (the green LED besides the
optical viewfinder will remain ON
and the Focus Mark at the center
of display will be green), then press
the Shutter Button fully to capture
the picture. (p.11)
Use the Marco mode only for
shooting distances between 2.9ft
(15cm) ~ 2ft (60cm). Otherwise, use
the normal capture mode.
Clean the lens with professional
lens cleansing paper or use a piece
of lint-free, soft-dust-free cloth to
gently wipe the lens.
Make sure the subject is centered
in the focus mark when composing
the image.
Reset the white balance setting to
Auto, or for the specific lighting in
the surrounding area.
Aim the camera at something white
such as a white piece of paper,
press the Shutter button half-way
to adjust the white balance to the
subject’s lighting condition.
Insert a memory card with sufficient
memory available.
Download the stored files to your
PC and delete the files from the
memory card.
Delete unwanted pictures and
continue shooting.
