A-7
The “pictures remaining” number on the display panel
doesn’t decrease after you take a picture.
◗ Your camera is operating correctly. The total number of
pictures you can store depends on your pictures’
content. The number doesn’t always change, especially
when you’re using standard image quality. (To confirm
that the camera took the picture, you can turn the
camera dial to to display the last picture that was
taken.)
The camera’s date and time settings need to be reset often.
◗ When your camera is without charged batteries or a
connection to an optional AC adapter for more than one
hour, it loses the time, date, and other settings (and
returns to the default settings). To make sure you don’t
lose your settings, connect the camera to an optional
AC adapter while you are charging the batteries. Or,
purchase a backup set of batteries to use in the camera
while the others are recharging.
The camera’s LCD screen is displaying the wrong language.
◗ You can change the language back in the Language/
Signal setup menu. Turn your camera dial to and
press the button under the icon. (See page 7-5 for
complete instructions on changing the language setting.)
When you are in video clip capture mode, the time shown
is less than 25 seconds.
◗ The camera’s CompactFlash card does not have enough
remaining memory to capture a complete video clip.
You can still capture a video clip for the amount of time
shown. If you need to capture a video clip for the full 25
seconds, erase some existing pictures or video clips (see
Chapter 6), or transfer the pictures or video clips to your
computer and then erase them (see Chapter 10). Or
replace your memory card with a new one (see
Chapter 1).
