Taking Pictures (Smart Auto)
@ What if ...
What if white and gray frames appear when you point the camera toward
a subject?
When faces are detected, a white frame appears on the face of the main
subject, while gray frames appear on
other detected faces. The frames will
follow the subjects within a certain range (see
Camera User Guide).
What if the indicator blinks orange and B blinks on the screen?
Attach the camera to a tripod so that the camera does not move and blur the
Image.
What if the camera does not play any sounds?
Pressing the DISP. button while turning on the camera power will turn off all
sounds except for warning sounds. To turn the sounds on, press the
MENU
button, choose the tT tab, and then choose [Mute]. Press the ~ ~ buttons to
choose [Off].
What if the image comes out dark even if the flash fired when shooting?
The subject is too far away for the flash to reach. Move the zoom lever toward
!!HI and hold it until the lens stops moving. The camera will be at its maximum
wide angle setting and you can shoot within the effective flash range
of
approximately 30 cm - 4.0 m (12 in. -13 ft.).
Move the zoom lever toward
[.J and hold it until the lens stops moving. The
camera will
be at its maximum telephoto setting and you can shoot within the
effective flash range
of approximately 50 cm - 2.0 m (1.6 - 6.6 ft.).
What if the camera beeps once when the shutter button is pressed
halfway?
Your subject may be too close. Move the zoom lever toward [ffi] and hold it until
the lens stops moving. The camera will
be at its maximum wide angle setting
and you will be able to focus on subjects that are approximately 3 cm (1.2 in.)
or more away from the end
of the lens.
Move the zoom lever toward
[.J and hold it until the lens stops moving. The
camera will
be at its maximum telephoto setting and you will be able to focus
on subjects that are about
50 cm (1.6 ft.) or more away from the end of the
lens.
What if the lamp lights when the shutter button is pressed halfway?
To reduce red-eye and to assist in focusing, the lamp may light when shooting
in dark areas.
What if the ~ icon blinks when you try to shoot?
The flash is charging. You can shoot when recharging ends.
