No AF frames are displayed and the camera does not focus when the
shutter button is pressed halfway.
• To have AF frames displayed and the camera focus correctly, try composing the
shot with higher-contrast subject areas centered before you press the shutter button
halfway. Otherwise, try pressing the shutter button halfway repeatedly.
Subjects in shots look too dark.
• Raise the ash and set the ash mode to [h] (=
80).
• Adjust brightness by using exposure compensation (=
69).
• Adjust contrast by using i-Contrast (=
71, 109).
• Use AE lock or spot metering (=
70).
Subjects look too bright, highlights are washed-out.
• Lower the ash and set the ash mode to [!] (=
29).
• Adjust brightness by using exposure compensation (=
69).
• Use AE lock or spot metering (=
70).
• Reduce the lighting on subjects.

• This is caused by light from the ash reecting 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).
Subjectsareaffectedbyred-eye(=

• Set [Red-Eye Lamp] to [On] (=
50). The red-eye reduction lamp (=
3) will be
activated in ash shots. 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 (=
109).
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 (=
150).
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 Tab Menu” (=
180 – 186).
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 (=
40). If the icons still do not display even when you set the birthday,
re-register face information (=
40), or make sure that the date/time are set
correctly (=
147).
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 (=
149,
190).
[ ] is displayed and shooting stops automatically.
The camera’s internal memory buffer lled 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 (=
150).
• Lower the image quality (=
48).
• Switch to a memory card that supports high-speed recording (=
190).
Zooming is not possible.
• Zooming is not possible when shooting movies in [ ] (=
58) and [ ] (=
66)
modes.
