Troubleshooting
Pictures are
not sharp.
Subject is too close.
Make sure the subject is within
the autofocus range (p. 24) or
use the macro mode (p. 29).
The camera is in macro
mode.
Cancel the macro mode setting

A special situation is pre-
venting the autofocus
system from focusing (p.

Use the focus-lock function to
focus on an object at the same
distance as the subject (p. 53)
or use manual focus (p. 67).
Pictures are
taken indoors
or in low-light
situations with-
out flash.
Slow shutter speeds
result in blurred images
when the camera is
hand-held.
Use a tripod, change the cam-
era sensitivity to a higher set-
ting (p. 64), or use the flash (p.
32).
Continuous
advance and
bracketing
drive mode
does not
work.
The image quality is set to TIFF.
Change the image-quality set-
ting (p. 44).
