The charge lamp on the camera flashes when charging the battery pack.
• You can only use an NP-FW50 battery pack. 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 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 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 pack has not been charged even though the charge lamp 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.
• Set the power switch to OFF while charging the battery.
• 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, such as pressing the shutter button halfway down
(page 141).
• The screen display is set to the viewfinder. Press the FINDER/LCD button to switch the display to the
LCD screen.
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.
• You are using the self-timer.
Recording takes a long time.
• The noise reduction function is processing an image. This is not a malfunction.
• You are shooting in RAW mode (page 83). Since the RAW data file is large, the RAW mode shooting
may take time.
• The [Auto HDR] function is processing an image (page 93).
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 65).
• Ambient light is insufficient.
• Use the [Flexible Spot] (page 67) or manual focus function (page 65).
