Troubleshooting 10 Possible cause Corrective action The picture has obscured edge(s). The lens was partly blocked by your finger or the strap. Hold the camera correctly, keeping your fingers and the strap away from the lens. The picture is out of focus. The camera moved when the shutter button was pressed. Hold the camera correctly and press the shutter button gently. The subject was too close. The flash was not enabled in a lighting condition requiring use of the flash. Move further away from the subject. To take pictures closer than 7 cm (2.8") with the zoom in the maximum WIDE position, use the super macro mode. Push the flash lever up to make the flash pop up. Camera movement occurs easily with slower shutter speeds. Use a tripod, or hold the camera firmly. The lens was dirty. Clean the lens. Use a commercially available blower blush and then wipe with a lens cleaner to remove dust. Mold may form on the lens surface if the lens is left dirty. The picture was out of focus even though the green lamp was lit. Focus the camera on an object at the same distance as the intended subject using the focus lock function before composing your shot. Halation produces unnatural colors in the picture. This may be caused by excessively bright ultraviolet light on the subject, such as sunlight shining through the leaves of trees, window frames in bright light at night, reflection of metal in direct sunlight, etc. • Use a UV filter. As this may upset the overall color balance, it should only be used in the conditions described on the left. • Process the picture on a PC using a graphics application (Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, etc.). For example, after picking up unnatural colors with a syringe tool, etc. you can select color areas, and try color conversion or saturation adjustment. For details, refer to the manual for the graphics application you are using. Ref. Page P.31 P.31 P.84, 85 P.55 P.194 P.49 - Miscellaneous 180

Troubleshooting

Miscellaneous
Possible cause
Corrective action
Ref. Page
The picture has obscured edge(s).
The lens was partly
blocked by your
finger or the strap.
Hold the camera correctly, keeping your fingers
and the strap away from the lens.
P.31
The picture is out of focus.
The camera moved
when the shutter
button was pressed.
Hold the camera correctly and press the shutter
button gently.
P.31
The subject was too
close.
Move further away from the subject. To take
pictures closer than 7 cm (2.8") with the zoom in
the maximum WIDE position, use the super
macro mode.
P.84, 85
The flash was not
enabled in a lighting
condition requiring
use of the flash.
Push the flash lever up to make the flash pop up.
Camera movement occurs easily with slower
shutter speeds. Use a tripod, or hold the camera
firmly.
P.55
The lens was dirty.
Clean the lens. Use a commercially available
blower blush and then wipe with a lens cleaner to
remove dust. Mold may form on the lens surface
if the lens is left dirty.
P.194
The picture was out
of focus even though
the green lamp was
lit.
Focus the camera on an object at the same
distance as the intended subject using the focus
lock function before composing your shot.
P.49
Halation produces unnatural colors in the picture.
This may be caused
by excessively bright
ultraviolet light on the
subject, such as
sunlight shining
through the leaves of
trees, window frames
in bright light at night,
reflection of metal in
direct sunlight, etc.
• Use a UV filter. As this may upset the overall
color balance, it should only be used in the
conditions described on the left.
• Process the picture on a PC using a graphics
application (Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, etc.).
For example, after picking up unnatural colors
with a syringe tool, etc. you can select color
areas, and try color conversion or saturation
adjustment. For details, refer to the manual for
the graphics application you are using.
