• In dark places, the AF assist lamp (P67) lights red to make it easier to focus on a subject.
• Is [AF ASSIST LAMP] on the [REC] mode menu set to [ON]? (P67)
• The AF assist lamp does not turn on in bright places.
• The surface of the camera may become warm during use. This does not affect the performance
or quality of the camera.
• When the brightness changes due to zoom or camera movement etc., the lens may click and
the picture on the screen may drastically change. However, the picture is not affected. The
sound is caused by the automatic adjustment of the aperture. This is not a malfunction.
• If you do not use the camera for a long time, the clock may be reset.
> When the message [PLEASE SET THE CLOCK] appears, set the clock again. When you
take a picture before setting the clock, [0:00 0. 0. 0] is recorded. (P17)
• At some magnification levels, the pictures taken are slightly distorted or the outlines and other
areas in the pictures taken are coloured, but this is not a malfunction.
• When using the extra optical zoom, the zooming action will stop temporarily near [W]. This is
not a malfunction.
• When you perform an operation after taking a certain action, the pictures may be recorded in
folders with different numbers from the ones used prior to the operation. (P85)
• If the battery was inserted or removed without first turning the camera’s power off, the folder
and file numbers for the pictures taken will not be stored in the memory. When the power is then
turned back on and pictures are taken, they may be stored under file numbers which should
have been assigned to previous pictures.
