Troubleshooting
The camera is a microcomputer-controlled device.
External noise and interference (from a TV, a radio, etc.)
might prevent it from functioning properly. In such cases,
first disconnect its power supply unit (battery pack, AC
adapter, etc.) and wait a few minutes; and then re-
connect it and proceed as usual from the beginning.
