If it is pressed forcefully, the camera may move causing the picture to blur. • Never remove the batteries or disconnect the AC adapter while the orange lamp on the side of the viewfinder is blinking. Doing so could destroy stored pictures and prevent storage of pictures you have just taken. • Recorded pictures are saved in the camera regardless of whether the camera is turned off or the batteries are replaced or removed. • When taking pictures against strong backlight, the area of the picture in shadow may appear colored. • When a conversion lens is attached to the camera, the edges of the picture may appear dark. Check the recorded image on the monitor. Subjects that are difficult to focus on Under certain types of conditions, the auto focus may not work properly. The green lamp blinks.
