      Robert Leonard Jr.Aug 21, 2025
      If your BenQ Digital Camera does not shoot even when pressing the shutter button, there are several potential causes. The battery may be running low, so try recharging or replacing it. Ensure the camera is in Shooting Mode. Press the shutter button all the way down. If the internal memory or memory card is full, load a new card or delete unwanted files. If the flash is recharging, wait until the flash mode icon stops flashing. Finally, the camera may not recognize the memory card; format it before initial use or with another camera.
