The power turns off automatically
Cause What to do
Have you not touched the
camera controls for a while?
Press the POWER button to turn the camera back on.
The camera takes too long to take a photo
Cause What to do
Did you press the shutter
button completely with one
push?
Press the shutter button halfway and hold it to set the focus, then
press it the rest of the way down to take a photo. If you press the
shutter button all the way, it takes time to focus and set the
exposure before the shutter releases. It may take longer than
when pressing the shutter button in two steps.
The flash does not work
Cause What to do
Is the flash setting correct? When (flash off) is selected as the flash setting, the flash will
not go off. See page 29 for details. Also make sure you didn’t
cover the flash with your finger when taking your photo.
