Appendix
A recorded image
was not saved.
1)Camera power may have been turned off before the save
operation was complete, which will result in the image not
being saved. If the battery indicator shows , charge the
battery as soon as possible (page 27).
2)You may have removed the memory card from the camera
before the save operation was complete, which will result in
the image not being saved. Do not remove the memory card
before the save operation is complete.
Though available
lighting is bright,
the faces of people
in the image are
dark.
Not enough light is reaching the subjects. Change the flash
mode setting to
<
(Flash On) for daylight synchro flash (page
55), or adjust EV shift to the + side (page 54).
Night shots come
out bad.
Use the following BEST SHOT scenes (page 83) when shooting
at night.
• HS Night Scene (for shooting night scenery only)
• HS Night Scene and Portrait (for shooting people against
night scenery)
Subjects are too
dark when shooting
images in a
seashore or ski
area.
Sunlight reflected by water, sand, or snow, can cause
underexposure of images. Change the flash mode setting to
<
(Flash On) for daylight synchro flash (page 55), or adjust EV
shift to the + side (page 54).
Digital zoom will
not go up to the
maximum value.
1)The digital zoom setting may be turned off. Turn on digital
zoom (page 119).
2)Zoom will not go up to the maximum value if the “Zoom (SR)”
setting is “Single”. Change the setting to “Off” (page 62).
3)Zoom will not go up to the maximum value if the snapshot
size setting is something other than “VGA”. Change to a
different setting (page 109).
The image is out of
focus during movie
recording.
1)Focusing may not be possible because the subject is outside
the focus range. Shoot within the allowable range.
2)The lens may be dirty. Clean the lens (page 215).
3)During High Speed Movie recording, focus is fixed at the
position where it was when recording started. To focus an
image, half-press the shutter button for Auto Focus or focus
manually before you press [0] (Movie) to start recording.
Movie recording
suddenly stops.
The camera’s protection function may have activated because
camera temperature is too high. Wait until the camera
temperature drops to normal levels.
I can't change the
settings of menu
items. Menu items
for some settings
are not displayed
on the menu.
Depending on the recording mode, some of the items on the
menu that appears may not be usable. While Premium Auto Pro
is in use, only the menu items whose settings can be configured
will be displayed on the menus.
