The remaining charge indicator is incorrect.

• This phenomenon occurs when you use the camera in an extremely hot or cold location.
• A discrepancy arose between the remaining charge indicator and the actual remaining battery charge.

Fully discharge the battery pack once, then charge it to correct the indication. The indicator may not
be accurate depending on the conditions of use.

• Battery capacity decreases over time and through repeated use. When the operating time per charge

decreases markedly, the battery pack needs to be replaced (page 123). Purchase a new battery pack.

The CHARGE lamp flashes while charging the battery.

• Remove and reinsert the battery pack, making sure it is installed correctly.
• The temperature may be inappropriate for charging. Try charging the battery pack again within the

proper charging temperature range (10 °C to 30 °C (50 °F to 86 °F)).

• Refer to page 124 for details.

Cannot record images.

• Check the free capacity of the internal memory or memory card. If it is full, do one of the following:

– Delete unnecessary images (page 36).
– Change the memory card.

• You cannot record images while charging the flash.
• When recording movies, it is recommended that you use the following memory cards:

– “Memory Stick PRO Duo” (Mark2) media, “Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo” media
– SD memory card or SDHC memory card (Class 4 or faster)

• Set [Demo Mode] to [Off] (page 78).

Smile Shutter function does not work.

• No image is shot if a smiling face is not detected.
• Set [Demo Mode] to [Off] (page 78).

Anti-blur function does not work.

• The anti-blur function may not work properly when shooting night scenes.
• Shoot after pressing the shutter button halfway down.

Recording takes a long time.

• When the shutter speed becomes slower than a certain speed in low light conditions, the NR (Noise

Reduction) slow shutter function is activated automatically to reduce the image noise. Under such
conditions, recording takes a long time.

• The Anti Blink function is working. Reset [Anti Blink] to [Off] (page 57).

The image is out of focus.

• The subject is too close. When shooting, make sure to position the lens farther away from the subject

than the shortest shooting distance (approximately 10 cm (4 inches) (W)/100 cm (3 ft 3 3/8 inches)
(T) from the lens).

(Twilight),

(Landscape) or (Fireworks) mode is selected in the Scene Selection when

shooting still images.
