Trouble shooting
Battery power
About 30 rolls (24-exposure, half with
flash) can be taken. However, flash and
zoom operations consume more battery
power.
The camera does not work
Make sure the power switch is ON. If the
power switch is between the ON and OFF
position, the camera does not work.
Check to make sure that the batteries are
loaded and inserted correctly.
If a completed roll of rewound film has
not been removed, the camera will not
work.
The camera does not focus correctly
When the subject moves too fast or is not
positioned within the autofocus frame in
the center of the viewfinder (refer p. 57),
the camera may not focus properly.
For fast moving subjects try the focus lock
with Servo AF mode (refer p. 44).
Even though the AF Illuminator lights, the
camera is still not focusing correctly.
It is sometimes difficult to attain an
accurate distance measurement of subjects
that have a low reflection ratio such as
navy blue or black.
The shutter will not release.
Press the shutter release button half-way
and make sure the "AF" light appears in
the viewfinder.
Flash does not emit.
Make sure the camera is on Flash mode.
When continuous flash shooting, there is
sometimes a delay in the time required to
recharge the battery. Shoot after the flash
indicator
appears in the viewfinder.
