Troubleshooting
If you put the menu back to the settings at
the time of purchase, the conditions may be
improved.
Carry out the [RESET] in the [SETUP]
menu. (P24)
Battery and the power source
1: The camera cannot be operated even
when it is turned on.
Is the battery inserted correctly?
Is the battery sufficiently charged?
Use a battery that has been
sufficiently charged.
2: The camera is turned off immediately
even after it is turned on.
Is the battery charge insufficient to
operate the camera?
Use a battery that has been
sufficiently charged.
Recording
1: The picture cannot be recorded.
Is the card inserted?
Is the mode dial correctly set?
Is there any memory capacity left on
the card?
Before recording, delete some
pictures.
2: The subject is not focused properly.
The focus range varies depending on
the recording mode.
Rotate the mode dial to set to the
proper mode for the distance to the
subject.
Is the subject out of the focus range?
(P38)
When you cannot focus on the subject
even if you tried many times, turn the
camera off once and turn it on again.
3: The recorded picture is blurred.
When taking a picture especially in dark
places, the shutter speed becomes
slow and the optical image stabilizer
function may not work properly. In this
case, we recommend holding the
camera with both hands firmly to take
pictures. When you take pictures with
slow shutter speed, we recommend
using a tripod and the self-timer (P53)
for taking pictures.
4: The recorded picture is whitish.
The lens is dirty.
The picture can become whitish if there
is dirt e.g. fingerprints on the lens.
When the lens is dirty, turn the camera
on and lightly wipe the surface of the
lens with a soft dry cloth.
5: Motion picture recording stops in the
middle.
Are you using a MultiMediaCard?
This unit does not support
MultiMediaCard.
When you set the picture quality to
[30fpsVGA], we recommend using a
high speed SD Memory Card with
“10MB/s” or greater displayed on the
package.
Depending on the type of SD Memory
Card and how many times it has been
recorded onto or deleted, recording
may stop in the middle. If something like
this happens, clean-up may be
effective. We recommend you clean up
the card using the camera in advance.
