Battery and power source

Charge the battery or use one that
has been sufficiently charged.

Is the battery charge insufficient to
operate the camera?
Charge the battery or use one that

If you leave the camera on, the battery
will be exhausted. Turn the camera off
frequently by using power save mode
(P28) etc.
Recording
1: The picture cannot be recorded.
The shutter does not activate.
Is the card inserted?
Is there any memory remaining on the
card?
Before recording, delete some
pictures. (P45)
Is the subject focused?
At the time of purchase, the camera is
set so that you cannot take a picture
until the subject is brought into focus.
If you want to be able to take a picture
when you press the shutter button
fully even if the subject is not focused,
set [FOCUS PRIORITY] in the
[CUSTOM] menu to [OFF]. (P86)
2: The recording mode ([ ], [ ],
[ ], [ ]) cannot be set correctly.
Is the lens attached correctly?
Detach the lens and attach it again.
(P16)

Is the subject beyond the focus range of
the camera? (P34)
Have you taken a picture with jitter?
Is [FOCUS PRIORITY] in the
[CUSTOM] menu set to [OFF]? (P86)
In this case, the picture may not be
properly focused even if [AFS] or
[AFC] in focus mode is set.
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. If the
lens is dirty turn the camera off and
then gently wipe the lens surface with a
soft dry cloth.
5: The recorded picture is too bright or
dark.
Check that the exposure is correctly
compensated. (P40)
