FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS :
As I pressed the shutter, the film counter is blinking >10s before increased by 1.
You need to take one photo with the lens covered. Then the film counter will increase by 1
in 2s time.
The image is not clear (like ghost image) when I took photos indoors.
The camera uses slow shutter speed in order to get good photo quality. So it is needed to
hold it firmly. Place it on the table or use the tripod if you use it in indoors (with or without
flash strobe on). It is recommended to use the camera in outdoors. Turn on the flash strobe
if the environment is dark.
I take a photo with the flash strobe fired. It is too bright.
The object is too close to the camera. The best object distance for flash photo is about 1.2m
to 2m.
It cannot power off after pressing the Power button.
The camera is trying to save the images so it will not power off. Please wait and it will power
off soon.
I cannot take more photos after taking 3 photos.
The camera buffer is full. The front LED indicator is blinking. Wait until it is steady.
The camera takes about 12s to process one photo. If you take 3 photos in 5s time, you need
to wait about 10s to take anther one. Or wait about 30s to take 3 photos continuously in 5s.
The CF card I bought cannot be used in this camera.
You need to buy some good brand name CF cards. for example, Kodak, SanDisk. If you want
to buy it, you need to test it (take 10 photos and upload to the PC through the USB cord).
I cannot turn on the flash strobe.
The first reason is that the battery power is too low for the flash strobe to charge up. You
can see the battery icon is blinking. The second reason is that the USB cord is connected
from the camera to the PC. The flash is disabled so it will not damage the USB port of the
PC due to high charging current.
There are strips of bars when I see the movie on the TV set.
You should not move the camera so fast when you are taking movie. Try to move it slowly
and horizontally.
I cannot power up the camera when I turn it off and then turn it on continuously.
You need to wait for 2s before power on the unit if the unit is just power off.
