Usage Tips
If the camera does not work as intended, or if
an error message is displayed on the screen,
and you are unsure of what to do, refer to the
information below to fix the problem(s).
Troubleshooting
Battery
“The camera does not work even when
battery is installed”
Insert recharged battery in the correct direction.
“Charging the battery” (p. 11), “Loading the battery
and the xD-Picture Card™ (sold separately) into
the camera” (p. 10)
Battery performance may have been reduced
temporarily due to low temperature. Take the
battery out of the camera, and warm it by putting it
in your pocket for a while.
Card/Internal memory
“An error message is displayed”
“Error message” (p. 60)
Shutter button
“No picture is taken when the shutter
button is pressed”
Cancel sleep mode.
To save battery power, the camera automatically
goes into sleep mode and the monitor turns off
if there is no operation after 3 minutes when the
camera is turned on. No picture is taken even if
the shutter button is fully pressed in this mode.
Operate the zoom button or other buttons to
restore the camera from sleep mode before taking
a picture. If the camera is left for 15 minutes, it
automatically turns off. Press the n button to
turn on the camera.
Set the mode dial to a position other than q.
Wait until #(flash charge) stops blinking before
taking pictures.

Monitor
“Difficult to see”
Condensation* 1 may have formed. 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”
Vertical lines may appear on the screen at
times such as when the camera is pointed at an
extremely bright subject under a clear sky. The
lines do not appear, however, in the final image.
“The light is caught in the picture”
Shooting with flash in dark situations results in
an image with many flash reflections on dust in
the air.
Date and time function
“Date and time settings return to the
default setting”
If the battery is removed and left out of the camera
for about 1 day* 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 battery have been loaded.
“Setting the date and time” (p. 14)
Others
“Noises occur from the inside of the
camera in shooting standby mode”
Auto focusing operation may cause lens
movement noises even if you do not make any
camera operation.
