Caution
• Error messages related to a memory card appear for each card slot
being used. If an error message appears, take the appropriate
action for the respective card slot.
Troubleshooting
In rare cases, the camera may not operate correctly due to
static electricity. This can be remedied by taking the battery out
and putting it back in again. When the mirror remains in the UP
position, take the battery out and put it back in again. Then, the
mirror will retract when the camera is turned on again. If, after
performing these procedures, the camera operates correctly, it
does not require any repairs.
We recommend checking the following items before contacting
a service center.
