Why do my Nikon Digital Camera pictures appear smeared?
If your pictures appear smeared when using your Nikon Digital Camera, the lens may be dirty. Clean the lens.
Why doesn't the flash fire on my Nikon Coolpix P300?
The flash on your Nikon Digital Camera might not fire if it is set to Off, or if you've selected a scene mode that cannot turn on the flash. Another function that is set may also be restricting the flash.
How to correct date and time of recording on Nikon Digital Camera?
If the date and time are incorrect on your Nikon Digital Camera recordings, this may be because the camera clock has not been set. If the camera clock has not been set (“Date not set” indicator blinks during shooting), still pictures have a time stamp of “00/00/0000 00:00”; and movies are dated “01/ 01/2011 00:00.” Set the correct date and time using Time zone and date in the setup menu. The camera clock is not as accurate as a normal clock, such as watches. Check camera clock regularly against more accurate timepieces and reset as required.
Why Nikon Coolpix P300 Digital Camera battery cannot be charged by connecting the camera to a computer?
If your Nikon Digital Camera battery isn't charging when connected to a computer, it might be because 'Off' is selected for Charge by computer in the setup menu. Also, when charging by connecting the camera to a computer, battery charging stops when the camera is turned off or when the computer is suspended (sleeping), and the camera may turn off. Depending upon computer specifications, settings, and status, charging the battery inserted in the camera may not be possible via computer connection.
Why are my Nikon Coolpix P300 pictures too dark?
If your Nikon Digital Camera pictures are too dark, it could be due to several reasons. The flash might be set to Off, or the flash window could be blocked. The subject may also be beyond the flash range. You can try adjusting the exposure compensation, raising the ISO sensitivity. If the subject is backlit, raise the flash and set the scene mode to Backlighting or set the flash mode to fill flash.
Why did my Nikon Coolpix P300 settings reset?
Your Nikon Digital Camera settings may have reset because the clock battery is exhausted, causing all settings to revert to their default values.
Why my Nikon Coolpix P300 Digital Camera cannot focus?
If your Nikon Digital Camera is having trouble focusing, it might be because the subject is too close to the camera. Try shooting with macro mode, or Scene auto selector or Close-up scene mode. Also, set AF assist in the setup menu to Auto. Ensure the subject is in the focus area when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. You can also try turning the camera off and then on again.
Why won't my Nikon Coolpix P300 turn on?
Your Nikon Digital Camera might not be turning on because the battery is exhausted. Also, the camera cannot be turned on while connected to an electrical outlet via the Charging AC Adapter, or if the battery-chamber/ memory card slot cover is open.
What to do if the battery in my Nikon Digital Camera cannot be charged?
If the battery in your Nikon Digital Camera isn't charging, please confirm all connections and ensure the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover is closed.
Why no picture taken when shutter-release button is pressed on Nikon Coolpix P300 Digital Camera?
If your Nikon Digital Camera isn't taking pictures when you press the shutter-release button, here are a few things to check: * If the camera is in playback mode, press the c or shutter-release button. * If menus are displayed, press the d button. * Ensure the battery is not exhausted. * If the scene mode is o (Backlighting) and HDR is Off or Night portrait, raise the flash. * If the flash lamp blinks, it means the flash is charging.
