Table of contents Sample photo The charge lamp on the camera flashes when charging the battery pack. • You can use an NP-FW50 battery pack only. Make sure that the battery is NP-FW50. • If you charge a battery pack that has not been used for a long time, the charge lamp on the camera may flash. • The charge lamp flashes in two ways, fast (about 0.3-second intervals) or slow (about 1.3-second intervals). If the charge lamp is flashing fast, remove the battery pack and reattach the same battery pack securely, or disconnect and reconnect the USB cable. If the charge lamp flashes fast again, it suggests that there is something wrong with the battery pack, AC Adaptor (supplied), or USB cable. Slow flashing indicates that charging is suspended because the ambient temperature is outside the suitable range for charging the battery pack. Charging will resume and the charge lamp will be lit when the ambient temperature returns to within the suitable temperature. The optimal temperature for charging the battery pack is between 10 °C and 30 °C (50 °F and 86 °F). The battery has not been charged even if the charge lamp on the camera has turned off. • This phenomenon occurs when you use the camera in an extremely hot or cold location. The optimal temperature for charging the battery pack is between 10 °C and 30 °C (50 °F and 86 °F). The battery pack is not charged. • Turn off the camera before charging the battery pack. • When the battery pack is not charged (the charge lamp does not light) even if you follow the proper charging procedure, remove the battery pack and re-insert the same battery pack securely, or disconnect and reconnect the USB cable. Menu Index Shooting images Nothing is displayed on the LCD screen when the power is turned on. • If you do not operate the camera for given period of time, the camera turns to power saving mode. To cancel the power save, operate the camera by means such as pressing the shutter button halfway down (page 142). The shutter does not release. • You are using a memory card with a write-protect switch, and the switch is set to the LOCK position. Set the switch to the recording position. • Check the free capacity of the memory card. • You cannot record images while charging the flash. • The lens is not attached properly. Attach the lens properly. Recording takes a long time. • The noise reduction function is turned on (pages 122, 123). This is not a malfunction. • You are shooting in RAW mode (page 82). Since the RAW data file is large, the RAW mode shooting may take time. • [Auto HDR] is processing an image (page 92). The image is out of focus. • The subject is too close. Check the minimum focal distance of the lens. • You are shooting in manual focus mode. Set [AF/MF Select] to [Autofocus] (page 66). • Ambient light is insufficient. • The subject may require special focusing. Use the [Flexible Spot] (page 68) or manual focus function (page 66).

The charge lamp on the camera flashes when charging the battery pack.
• You can use an NP-FW50 battery pack only. Make sure that the battery is NP-FW50.
•
If you charge a battery pack that has not been used for a long time, the charge lamp on the camera may
flash.
• The charge lamp flashes in two ways, fast (about 0.3-second intervals) or slow (about 1.3-second
intervals). If the charge lamp is flashing fast, remove the battery pack and reattach the same battery
pack securely, or disconnect and reconnect the USB cable. If the charge lamp flashes fast again, it
suggests that there is something wrong with the battery pack, AC Adaptor (supplied), or USB cable.
Slow flashing indicates that charging is suspended because the ambient temperature is outside the
suitable range for charging the battery pack. Charging will resume and the charge lamp will be lit
when the ambient temperature returns to within the suitable temperature. The optimal temperature for
charging the battery pack is between 10 °C and 30 °C (50 °F and 86 °F).
The battery has not been charged even if the charge lamp on the camera has
turned off.
• This phenomenon occurs when you use the camera in an extremely hot or cold location. The optimal
temperature for charging the battery pack is between 10 °C and 30 °C (50 °F and 86 °F).
The battery pack is not charged.
• Turn off the camera before charging the battery pack.
• When the battery pack is not charged (the charge lamp does not light) even if you follow the proper
charging procedure, remove the battery pack and re-insert the same battery pack securely, or
disconnect and reconnect the USB cable.
Nothing is displayed on the LCD screen when the power is turned on.
• If you do not operate the camera for given period of time, the camera turns to power saving mode. To
cancel the power save, operate the camera by means such as pressing the shutter button halfway down
(page 142).
The shutter does not release.
• You are using a memory card with a write-protect switch, and the switch is set to the LOCK position.
Set the switch to the recording position.
• Check the free capacity of the memory card.
• You cannot record images while charging the flash.
• The lens is not attached properly. Attach the lens properly.
Recording takes a long time.
• The noise reduction function is turned on (pages 122, 123). This is not a malfunction.
• You are shooting in RAW mode (page 82). Since the RAW data file is large, the RAW mode shooting
may take time.
• [Auto HDR] is processing an image (page 92).
The image is out of focus.
• The subject is too close. Check the minimum focal distance of the lens.
• You are shooting in manual focus mode. Set [AF/MF Select] to [Autofocus] (page 66).
• Ambient light is insufficient.
• The subject may require special focusing. Use the [Flexible Spot] (page 68) or manual focus function
(page 66).
