Troubleshooting If you think there is a problem with the camera, first check the following. If the items below do not solve your problem, contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk. Power Nothing happens when the power button is pressed. • Confirm that you are using the correct type of battery, and that there is sufficient charge (p. 201). • Confirm that the battery is inserted facing the correct way (p. 17). • Confirm that the memory card/battery cover is fully closed (p. 18).
Troubleshooting is displayed when the shutter button is pressed halfway (p. 65). • • • • Set [IS mode] to [Continuous] (p. 119). Set the flash mode to h (p. 117). Increase the ISO speed (p. 102). Mount the camera on a tripod or take other measures to keep it still. In this case, set [IS Mode] to [Off] (p. 119). Shots are out of focus. • Press the shutter button halfway to focus on subjects before pressing it all the way down to shoot (p. 39).
Troubleshooting Subjects are affected by red-eye (p. 69). • Set [Red-Eye Lamp] to [On] (p. 75) to activate the red-eye reduction lamp (p. 4) in flash shots. Note that while the red-eye reduction lamp is on (for about one second), it is not possible to shoot, because the lamp is counteracting red-eye. For best results, have subjects look at the red-eye reduction lamp. Also try increasing the lighting in indoor scenes and shooting at closer range. • Edit images using red-eye correction (p. 150).
Troubleshooting Computer Cannot transfer images to a computer. When attempting to transfer images to the computer via a cable, try reducing the transfer speed as follows. • Press the 1 button to enter Playback mode.
