Appendix

The subject is out
of focus in the
recorded image.

The image may not be focused properly. When composing the
image, make sure the subject is located inside the focus frame.

The flash does not
fire.

1)If ? (Flash Off) is selected as the flash mode, change to

another mode (page 41).

2)If the battery is low, charge it (page 16).
3)If a BEST SHOT scene that uses ? (Flash Off) is selected,

change to a different flash mode (page 41) or select a
different BEST SHOT scene (page 70).

The red ? (Flash
Off) icon is
displayed on the
monitor screen and
the flash does not
fire.

The flash unit may be malfunctioning. Contact a CASIO
authorized service center or your original retailer. Note that
though the flash will not fire, you still can use the camera for
non-flash shots.

Camera powers
down during Self-
timer countdown.

The battery may be low. Charge the battery.

The monitor screen
image is out of
focus.

1)You may be using Manual Focus and have not focused the

image. Focus the image (page 43).

2)You may be using ´ (Macro) or Á (Super Macro) for

scenery or portraits. Use Auto Focus for scenery and portrait
shots (page 43).

3)You may be trying to use Auto Focus when shooting a close-

up shot. Use the ´ (Macro) or Á (Super Macro) for close
ups (page 43).

There is digital
noise in images.

1)Sensitivity may have been increased automatically for a dark

subject, which increases the chance of digital noise. Use a
light or some other means to illuminate the subject.

2)You may be attempting to shoot in a dark location with

?

(Flash Off) selected, which can increase digital noise and

make images appear coarse. In this case, turn on flash (page
41) or use lights for illumination.

3)Lighting (page 102) may be enabled for snapshots, which can

cause an increase in digital noise. Use a light or some other
means to illuminate the subject.

4)Shooting movies for long periods in areas where temperature

is relatively high can cause digital noise (dots of light) to
appear in the movie image. If this happens, move to a cooler
environment or turn off the camera and allow it to cool down,
which should cause normal operation to resume.
