Subjects in flash shots look too bright, highlights are washed-out.
• Shoot within flash range ( = 172).

White dots or similar image artifacts appear in flash shots.
• This is caused by light from the flash reflecting off dust or airborne particles.
Shots look grainy.
• Lower the ISO speed ( = 71).
• High ISO speeds in some shooting modes may cause grainy images ( = 56).
Subjects are affected by red-eye ( = 48).
• Set [Red-Eye Lamp] to [On] ( = 52) to activate the red-eye reduction lamp
( = 4) in flash shots. Note that while the red-eye reduction lamp is on (for about
one second), it is not possible to shoot, because the lamp is counteracting red-eye.
For best results, have subjects look at the red-eye reduction lamp. Also try increasing
the lighting in indoor scenes and shooting at closer range.
• Edit images using red-eye correction ( = 103).
Recording to the memory card takes too long, or continuous shooting
is slower.
• Use the camera to perform low-level formatting of the memory card ( = 137).
Shooting settings or FUNC. menu settings are not available.
• Available setting items vary by shooting mode. Refer to “Functions Available in Each
Shooting Mode”, “FUNC. Menu”, and “Shooting Menu” ( = 164 – 167).
The Babies or Children icon does not display.
• The Babies and Children icons will not display if the birthday is not set in face
information ( = 42). If the icons still do not display even when you set the birthday,
re-register face information ( = 42), or make sure that the date/time are set
correctly ( = 133).
Shooting Movies
The elapsed time shown is incorrect, or recording is interrupted.
• Use the camera to format the memory card, or switch to a card that supports high-
speed recording. Note that even if the elapsed time display is incorrect, the length
of movies on the memory card corresponds to the actual recording time ( = 136,
172).
[ ] is displayed and shooting stops automatically.
The camera’s internal memory buffer filled up as the camera could not record to the
memory card quickly enough. Try one of the following measures.
• Use the camera to perform low-level formatting of the memory card ( = 137).
• Lower the image quality ( = 49).
• Switch to a memory card that supports high-speed recording ( = 172).
Zooming is not possible.
• Zooming is not possible when shooting movies in [ ] ( = 58) and [ ] ( = 67)
modes.
Subjects look distorted.
• Subjects that pass in front of the camera quickly may look distorted. This is not a
malfunction.
