When the “…” warning message appears on the
LCD monitor, the lens cover has not opened fully. Open the
lens cover all the way.
The lens moves when the camera is in “q” or “r”
mode. Because these actions involve precision
mechanisms, take care not to obstruct the lens with
your hand or fingers.
Obstructing the lens will cause a malfunction or
fault and the “
∂” or “ß”
message will appear. Take care also not to get
fingerprints on the camera lens as this will result in
impaired image quality in your shots.
When you first switch the camera on, the date is
cleared. Press the “MENU/OK” button to set the
date and time.

At the time of purchase and after you leave the camera for a
long period with the batteries removed, settings such as the
date and time are cleared. Once the AC power adapter has
been connected or the batteries have been loaded for 30
minutes or more, the camera settings will be retained for
roughly 3 hours even when the camera has no power
(batteries removed and AC power adapter disconnected).
