What to do if my FujiFilm Digital Camera won't take a photo when I press the shutter button?

  whitemarioAug 19, 2025
  If your FujiFilm Digital Camera isn't taking photos when you press the shutter button, there could be several reasons. Make sure an xD-Picture Card is inserted and that it isn't full. If it is full, either insert a new card or erase some unwanted frames. The card might need formatting, or its contact area might be dirty; try wiping it with a clean, dry cloth. A damaged xD-Picture Card can also prevent picture-taking, so try a new one. Ensure that the camera is turned on, as the auto power off function may have activated. Finally, check that the batteries aren't depleted and load new or fully charged batteries if needed.

  If your images are blurred when using your FujiFilm Digital Camera, start by cleaning the lens. If the subject was too dark, try standing approximately 2 meters (6.6 ft.) away. Ensure you're using the correct mode; if photographing scenery, cancel Macro mode. Conversely, for close-up shots, select Macro mode.

  If the flash on your FujiFilm Digital Camera isn't working, first check if it's set to Suppressed Flash mode; if so, switch to Auto, Red-eye Reduction, or Forced Flash (note that the flash is unavailable in some modes). Ensure you wait for the flash to finish charging before pressing the Shutter button. Lastly, make sure the batteries are not depleted and load new or fully charged batteries.

Why is the playback image too dark on my FujiFilm FinePix A120 even though the flash was used?

  carsonrobinSep 2, 2025
  If your playback images are too dark despite using the flash on your FujiFilm Digital Camera, it could be because the subject was too far away; move closer to within the effective flash range before taking the picture. Also, ensure that your finger isn't covering the flash while taking the photo; hold the camera correctly.

  If you're not seeing an image from your FujiFilm Digital Camera on the TV, first ensure that you are not in Photography mode, as images won't display in this mode.
