The flash does not work.
• Press the
(flash pop-up) button to pop up the flash.
• You cannot use a flash with the following recording mode:
– [Bracket: Cont.]
– [Sweep Panorama]
– [3D Sweep Panorama]
– [Night Scene] and [Hand-held Twilight] in [Scene Selection]
– [Anti Motion Blur]
– Movie recording
The wireless flash does not work.
• You cannot use the built-in flash for wireless flashing. Use a lighting ratio control flash (sold
separately).
Fuzzy white circular spots appear on images shot using the flash.
• Particles (dust, pollen, etc.) in the air reflected the flash light and appeared on the image. This is not a
malfunction.
The flash takes too long to recharge.
• The flash has been fired in succession in a short period. When the flash has been fired in succession,
the recharging process may take longer than usual to avoid overheating of the camera.
The image taken with the flash is too dark.
• If the subject is beyond the flash range (the distance that the flash can reach), the pictures will be dark
because the flash light does not reach the subject. If the ISO is changed, the flash range also changes
with it.
The date and time are recorded incorrectly.
• Set the correct date and time (page 150).
• The area selected with [Area Setting] is different from the actual area. Set the actual area by selecting
MENU
t [Setup] t [Area Setting].
The aperture value and/or shutter speed flashes when you press the shutter
button halfway down.
• Since the subject is too bright or too dark, it is beyond the available range of the camera. Adjust the
setting again.
The image is whitish (Flare).
Blurring of light appears on the image (Ghosting).
• The picture was taken under a strong light source, and excessive light has entered the lens. When
using the zoom lens, attach a lens hood.
The corners of the picture are too dark.
• If any filter or hood is used, take it off and try shooting again. Depending on the thickness of the filter
and improper attachment of the hood, the filter or the hood may partially appear in the image. The
optical properties of some lenses may cause the periphery of the image to appear too dark (insufficient
light). You may compensate for this phenomenon with [Lens Comp.: Shading] (page 137).
