∫ LCD monitor
1: The brightness of the screen 
becomes dark or bright for a moment.
• This phenomenon appears when 
pressing the shutter button halfway to 
set the aperture value and does not 
affect the recorded pictures.
2: The screen is too bright or dark.
• Adjust the brightness of the screen.
3: Some pixels are inactive or always lit 
on the LCD monitor.
• These pixels do not affect the recorded 
pictures.
This is not a malfunction.
4: Noise appears on the LCD monitor.
• In dark places, noise may appear to 
maintain the brightness of the LCD 
monitor.
This does not affect the pictures you are 
recording.
5: A vertical red line appears on the LCD 
monitor.
• This is called smear. It is specific to 
CCD, not a malfunction. It appears 
when the subject has a bright part. It is 
recorded on motion images, but not 
recorded on still pictures.

2: The flash is activated 2 times.
• When you select AUTO/Red-eye 
reduction [
], the first flash is

actually recording pictures. After the 
first flash, the flash is activated again for 
recording.
∫ Playback

displayed in an unexpected direction.
The camera has a function to 
automatically rotate and display pictures 
recorded by holding the camera 
vertically.
(If you take pictures aiming the camera 
up or down, the camera may recognise 
that it is held vertically.)
• When [ROTATE DISP.] (P70) is set to 
[OFF], you can display the pictures 
without being rotated.
• You can rotate pictures with [ROTATE] 
function (P70).
2: The picture is not played back.
• Is the mode dial set to playback [
]?
• Is there a picture in the built-in memory 
or the card?

data in the built-in memory appear. 
When a card is inserted, the picture 
data in the card appear. (P19)
3: The picture played back looks rough.
