With prolonged camera use, the internal temperature
may increase, resulting in automatic shutdown. If this
occurs, remove the battery from the camera and wait
until the camera has suffi ciently cooled. The camera’s
external temperature may also increase during use,
however this is normal and does not indicate malfunction.
Monitor Monitor
“Diffi cult to see”.
Condensation *1 may have occurred. Turn off the
power, and wait for the camera body to become
acclimated to the surrounding temperature and dry
out before taking pictures.
*1 Dew drops can form in the camera when it is
suddenly taken from a cold location into a warm,
humid room.
“Vertical lines appear on the screen”.
This condition may occur when the camera is
pointed at an extremely bright subject under a clear
sky and so on. The lines do not appear, however,
in the fi nal image.
“The light is caught in the picture”.
Shooting with fl ash results in an image with many
fl ash refl ections on dust in the air.
Date and time function Date and time function
“Date and time settings return to the default setting”.
If the batteries are removed and left out of the
camera for about 3 days
*2 , the date and time settings
return to the default setting, and must be reset.
*2 The time until the date and time settings return to
the default setting varies depending on how long
the batteries have been loaded.
“Date, time, time zone, and language” (p. 17)
Miscellaneous Miscellaneous
“The camera makes a noise when taking pictures”.
The camera may activate the lens and make a
noise even if no operation is performed. This
is because the camera automatically performs
actions of auto focus as far as it is ready to shoot.
