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. (P23)
∫ Batteries and the power source
1: The camera is turned off immediately 
even when the battery power is full.
The battery indication shows less 
than the actual remaining battery 
power even if new batteries are 
inserted.
• Is [BATTERY TYPE] selected correctly?
– Select the item on [BATTERY TYPE] 
in the [SETUP] menu. (P23)
2: The camera cannot be operated even 
when it is turned on.
• Are the batteries inserted correctly?
• Use batteries that have been 
sufficiently charged when you use 
Ni-MH batteries.
3: The LCD monitor is turned off even 
when the camera is turned on.
• Is the power save mode (P23) or 
economy mode (P53) activated?
– Press the shutter button halfway to 
cancel these modes.
• Are the batteries exhausted?
– Replace them with batteries which 
have enough capacity. (When you use 
Ni-MH batteries, charge them.)
4: The LCD monitor is turned off 
sometimes when the camera is turned 
on.
• Is the LCD monitor turned off soon after 
you take pictures with the flash?
– While the flash is being charged, the 
LCD monitor is turned off. 
5: The camera is turned off immediately 
even after it is turned on.
• Are the batteries exhausted?
– Replace them with batteries which 
have enough capacity. (When you use 
Ni-MH batteries, charge them.)
– If you leave the camera with turning it 
on, the batteries are exhausted. Turn 
the camera off frequently by using the 
economy mode (P53), the power save 
mode (P23), etc.
∫ Recording
1: The picture cannot be recorded.
• Is the mode dial correctly set?
• Is there any memory capacity left on 
the built-in memory or 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? 
(P32)
• 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 in shaded areas 
or indoors, 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 the [SLOW SHUTTER] 
(P66) is set, we recommend using a 
tripod.
