Troubleshooting
Memory card is not
formatted correctly.
Format the memory card (p. 26).
If reformatting does not work, the
memory card logic circuits may be
damaged. Consult the nearest
Canon Customer Support Help
Desk.
SD memory card or SDHC
memory card is write
protected.
Slide the write protect tab upward
(p. 114).
LCD monitor is closed.
When the shooting mode is
and
in the

or
open the LCD monitor and shoot
subject.
Image seen in viewfinder vs. recorded image.
Usually the recorded
image contains more of
the scene than is seen in
the viewfinder.
Confirm the actual image size with
the LCD monitor. Use the LCD
monitor when taking close-up shots
(p. 12).
Image is blurred or out of focus.
AF-assist Beam is set to
[Off].
In dark places where it is difficult for
the camera to focus, the AF-assist
Beam will emit to assist focusing. As
the AF-assist Beam will not function
when turned off, set it [On] to
activate it (p. 21). Take care not to
obstruct the AF-assist Beam with
your hand when used.
The camera moves when
the shutter button is
pressed.
Setting the self-timer to
(2
seconds) delays the shutter release
for 2 seconds after the shutter button
is pressed and allows the camera to
stop shaking, thus preventing a
blurred image (
Basic Guide
p. 18).
Even better results can be obtained
by placing the camera on a stable
surface or by using a tripod to shoot.
