In certain cases, due to static electricity, the F55/F55D’s microcomputer may turn the
camera off, even with fresh, properly installed batteries. For the same reason, the film
may not advance properly. In each of these cases, to resume operation, simply turn
the power off, then turn it on again. Or, remove and reinstall the batteries.
