Chapter 6 The camera does not respond when I press a button. ● Turn on the camera. ● Most of the camera buttons do not respond when the camera is connected to a computer. ● Replace or recharge the batteries. ● Reset the camera (see Resetting the camera on page 21). ● Check to see if the memory card is defective. If so, replace the memory card. ● Format the internal memory and/or the memory card (see Install and format an optional memory card on page 8). The camera does not take a picture when I press the Shutter button. ● Press the Shutter button all the way down. ● The memory card or internal memory may be full. Transfer images from the camera to your computer, then format the internal memory or the memory card (see Install and format an optional memory card on page 8). Or replace the card with a new one. ● The camera may be processing. Wait a few seconds for the camera to finish processing the last image before taking another picture. The Image Display is not working. ● The Image Display may have timed out. Press any camera button to wake up the camera. ● Replace the batteries. If the Image Display still does not turn on, reset the camera (see Resetting the camera on page 21). My image is blurry. ● Hold the camera steady when pressing the Shutter button, use a tripod, or improve lighting conditions. ● Set the flash to Auto Flash or Flash On and set the shooting mode to Action. My image is too bright. ● Turn the flash off (see Flash Setting under Using the Capture Menu on page 12). ● Move back from the subject and use zoom. ● Adjust Exposure Compensation (see Exposure Compensation under Using the Capture Menu on page 12). My image is too dark. ● Wait for natural lighting conditions to improve, use the flash (see Flash Setting under Using the Capture Menu on page 12), or add indirect lighting. ● Adjust Exposure Compensation (see Exposure Compensation under Using the Capture Menu on page 12). ● If the subject you are trying to capture is outside the flash range (see Flash working distance under Specifications on page 29), turn off the flash. This causes a longer exposure time, so use a tripod or hold the camera steady. 22
