Before Use
Shots are blurry.
● Blurring may occur more often when Touch Shutter is used to shoot, depending
on shooting conditions. Hold the camera still when shooting.
AF frames are orange and subjects remain out of focus when I press the
shutter button halfway.
● Before you press the shutter button halfway, try centering higher-contrast portions
of subjects. Otherwise, try pressing the shutter button halfway repeatedly. These
approaches may help the camera focus, which is indicated by a green AF frame.
Subjects in shots look too dark.
● Raise the ash and set the ash mode to [ ] (=
81).
● Adjust brightness by using exposure compensation (=
67).
● Adjust brightness by using the Auto Lighting Optimizer (=
70).
● Use AE lock or partial metering (=
68, =
68).
Subjects look too bright, highlights are washed-out.
● Lower the ash and set the ash mode to [ ] (=
37).
● Adjust brightness by using exposure compensation (=
67).
● Use AE lock or partial metering (=
68, =
68).
● Reduce the lighting on subjects.
Shots look too dark despite the ash ring (=
40).
● Shoot within ash range (=
212).
● Adjust brightness by using ash exposure compensation or changing the ash
output level (=
82, =
91).
● Increase the ISO speed (=
69).
Subjects in ash shots look too bright, highlights are washed-out.
● Shoot within ash range (=
212).
● Lower the ash and set the ash mode to [
] (=
37).
● Adjust brightness by using ash exposure compensation or changing the ash
output level (=
82, =
91).
White spots appear in ash shots.
● This is caused by light from the ash reecting off dust or airborne particles.
Shots look grainy.
● Lower the ISO speed (=
69).
● High ISO speeds in some shooting modes may cause grainy images (=
54).
Shooting
Cannot shoot.
● The camera cannot shoot unless subjects are in focus. Wait until the frame turns
green, as you press the shutter button halfway and allow the camera to focus,
before attempting to shoot.
● In Playback mode (=
100), press the shutter button halfway (=
30).
Strange display on the screen under low light (=
32).
Strange display on the screen when shooting.
● Note that the following display problems are not recorded in still images but are
recorded in movies.
- The screen may icker and horizontal banding may appear under uorescent
or LED lighting.
[ ] ashes on the screen when the shutter button is pressed, and shooting
is not possible (=
40).
[
] is displayed when the shutter button is pressed halfway (=
40).
● Shoot with image stabilization (=
84).
● Raise the ash and set the ash mode to [
] (=
81).
● Increase the ISO speed (=
69).
● Mount the camera on a tripod or take other measures to keep it still. In this case,
also disable image stabilization (=
84).
Shots are out of focus.
● Shoot with auto focus (AF).
● Press the shutter button halfway to focus on subjects before pressing it all the
way down to shoot (=
30).
● Focusing is not possible if you are closer to the subject than the minimum
focusing distance of the lens. To determine the minimum focusing distance, check
the lens. The lens minimum focusing distance is measured from the [
] (focal
plane) mark on the top of the camera to the subject.
● Set [AF-assist beam (LED) ring] to [Enable] (=
50).
● Conrm that you have deactivated any features you do not wish to use, such as
manual focus.
● Try shooting with focus lock or AF lock (=
76, =
78).
