Troubleshooting

The power turns off suddenly.

• If you do not operate the camera for a certain period of time, the camera

reverts to power-saving mode. To cancel power saving, operate the camera,
such as pressing the shutter button halfway down (page 164).

The CHARGE lamp flashes when charging the battery pack.

• Only an NP-FM500H battery pack can be used. Make sure that the battery

is NP-FM500H.

• 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 2 ways, quickly (at about 0.15-second

intervals) or slowly (at about 1.5-second intervals).
If it is flashing quickly, remove the battery pack and reattach the same
battery pack securely. If the CHARGE lamp flashes quickly again, it
suggests that there is something wrong with the battery pack.
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.
Charge the battery pack under suitable temperatures between 10°C and
30°C (50°F and 86°F).

Nothing is displayed on the LCD screen in viewfinder mode when the
power is turned on.

• [FINDER/LCD Setting] is set to [Manual]. Press the FINDER/LCD button

(page 164).

The image is not clear in the viewfinder.

• Adjust the diopter scale properly using the diopter-adjustment dial

(page 29).

No images in the viewfinder.

• [FINDER/LCD Setting] is set to [Manual]. Press the FINDER/LCD button

(page 164).

• Move your eye a little closer to the viewfinder.
