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 built-in flash (pages 41, 126).
• In autofocus mode, the shutter cannot be released when the subject is out of
focus.
• The lens is not attached properly. Attach the lens properly (page 24).
• When the camera is attached to another device, such as an astronomical
telescope, set [Release w/o Lens] to [Enable] (page 160).
• The subject may require special focusing (page 107). Use the focus-lock or
manual focus function (pages 108, 114).
Recording takes a long time.
• The noise reduction function is turned on (page 159). This is not a
malfunction.
• You are shooting in RAW mode (page 157). Since RAW data files are
large, RAW mode shooting may take time.
• The Auto HDR is processing an image (page 130).
The same image is shot several times.
• The drive mode is set to [Cont. Shooting] or [Bracket: Cont.]. Set [Drive
Mode] to [Single Shooting] (pages 45, 143).
• The exposure mode is set to [Tele-zoom Cont. Priority AE] (pages 40, 90).
• The exposure mode is set to [Superior Auto] and [S. Auto Image Extract.] is
set to [Off] (page 85).
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 the focus mode switch to AF
(autofocus) (page 106).
• When the lens has a focus mode switch, set it to AF.
• The ambient light is insufficient.
Eye-Start AF does not work.
• Set [Eye-Start AF] to [On] (page 77).
• Press the shutter button halfway down.
