Usage Tips

If the camera does not work as intended, or if an error

message is displayed on the screen, and you are unsure

of what to do, refer to the information below to ﬁ x the

problem(s).

Troubleshooting

Battery

“The camera does not work even when batteries are

installed”.

● Insert a new battery.

● Recharge the battery if it is rechargeable.

“Inserting and removing the battery and card” (p. 4)

● Battery performance may have been reduced

temporarily due to low temperature. Take the

batteries out of the camera, and warm them by

putting them in your pocket for a while.

Card/Internal memory

“An error message is displayed”.

“Error message” (p. 52)

Shutter button

“No picture is taken when the shutter button is pressed”.

● Cancel sleep mode.

To save battery power, the camera automatically

goes into sleep mode and the monitor turns off

if there is no operation for 3 minutes when the

camera is turned on. No picture is taken even if

the shutter button is fully pressed in this mode.

Operate the zoom lever or other buttons to restore

the camera from sleep mode before taking a

picture. If the camera is left for another 12 minutes,

it automatically turns off. Press the n button

to turn the camera on.

● Press the q button to switch to the shooting

mode.

● Wait until #(ﬂ ash charge) stops blinking before

taking pictures.

● With prolonged camera use, the internal

temperature may increase, resulting in automatic

shutdown. If this occurs, remove the battery from

the camera and wait until the camera has sufﬁ ciently

cooled.

The camera’s external temperature may also

increase during use, however this is normal and

does not indicate malfunction.

Monitor

“Difﬁ cult to see”.

● Condensation may have occurred. Turn off the

power, and wait for the camera body to become

acclimated to the surrounding temperature and dry

out before taking pictures.

“The light is caught in the picture”.

● Shooting with ﬂ ash in dark situations results in an

image with many ﬂ ash reﬂ ections on dust in the air.

Date and time function

“Date and time settings return to the default setting”.

● If the batteries are removed and left out of the

camera for about 3 days

, the date and time settings

return to the default setting, and must be reset.

The time until the date and time settings return to

the default setting varies depending on how long

the batteries have been loaded.

“Turning on the camera and making the initial

settings” (p. 6)

Miscellaneous

“The camera makes a noise when taking pictures”.

● The camera may activate the lens and make a

noise even if no operation is performed. This

is because the camera automatically performs

actions of auto focus as far as it is ready to shoot.
