3: The folder number and the file number 
are displayed as [—] and the screen 
turns black.
• Is the picture edited with a PC or 
recorded with a digital camera from 
another manufacturer?
This may also happen if the battery is 
removed immediately after recording or 
if recording with a exhausted battery.
– Format the data to delete the pictures 
mentioned above. (P91) (Formatting 
irretrievably deletes all data including 
the other pictures. Check the data 
carefully before formatting.)
4: The picture is displayed with a date 
different from the actual recording 
date in calendar playback.
• Was the picture edited with a PC or 
recorded with a digital camera from 
another manufacturer?
This kind of picture may be displayed 
with a date different from the actual 
recording date in calendar playback. 
(P65)
• Is the clock in the camera set properly? 
(P19)
For example, if the clock setting on the 
camera is different from the date and 
time set on the PC and you acquire 
pictures recorded with the camera to 
the PC and then write them back to the 
card, the pictures may be displayed with 
dates different from the actual recording 
dates in calendar playback etc.
TV, PC and printer
1: The picture does not appear on the 
television.
• Is the camera connected to the TV 
correctly?
• Set the TV input to external input mode.
2: The display areas on the TV screen 
and the camera’s LCD monitor are 
different.
Depending on the TV model, the area 
display may be smaller so the picture 
may be stretched horizontally or vertically 
and the top and bottom or left and right of 
the picture may be cut off when it is 
displayed. This is due to the TV 
specifications and is not a malfunction.
3: The motion pictures cannot be played 
back on a TV.
• Are you trying to play back the motion 
pictures by directly inserting the card in 
the card slot of the TV?
– Connect the camera to the TV with the 
AV cable (supplied) and then play back 
the pictures on the camera. (P99)
4: The picture cannot be transferred 
when the camera is connected to a 
PC.
• Is the camera connected to the PC 
correctly?
• Is the camera recognized by the PC 
correctly?
