Troubleshooting
First, try out the following procedures (P197–207).
•
The battery is exhausted.
• Charge the battery.
• If you leave the camera on, the battery will be exhausted.
> Turn the camera off frequently by using the [ECONOMY] Mode etc. (P65)
• If you connect to a TV compatible with VIERA Link with a HDMI mini cable (optional) and turn
off the power on the TV with the remote control for the TV, the power on this unit also turns off.
> If you are not using VIERA Link, set [VIERA Link] to [OFF]. (P67)
• Is the subject focused?
> [FOCUS PRIORITY] is set to [ON] at the time of purchase, and so you cannot take pictures
until the subject is in focus. If you want to be able to take a picture when you press the
shutter button fully even if the subject is not focused, set [FOCUS PRIORITY] in the
[CUSTOM] menu to [OFF]. (P139)
• Picture might look whitish when lens or image sensor gets dirty with fingerprints or similar.
> If the lens is dirty turn the camera off and then gently wipe the lens surface with a soft dry
cloth.
> Refer to P189 when the image sensor gets dirty.
If the problem is not resolved, it may be improved by selecting [RESET] (P68) on the
[SETUP] menu.
