      Cindy KingSep 23, 2025
      With some PictBridge-compatible printers, the PictBridge startup screen may not be displayed and it may be impossible to print images when Auto is selected for Charge by computer in the setup menu. Set Charge by computer to Off and reconnect the camera to the printer.

    Why does my Nikon Coolpix S2900 Digital Camera turn off unexpectedly?

      Lauren GillAug 27, 2025
      Your Nikon Digital Camera might be turning off without warning because: - The camera automatically turns off to save power (auto off function). - The camera and battery may not work properly at low temperatures. - The inside of the camera has become hot. Leave the camera off until the inside of the camera has cooled, and then try turning it on again.

    Why do colored circles appear in my Nikon Coolpix S2900 photos?
    • C
      Cody DanielsSep 3, 2025
      When shooting with backlighting or when a very strong light source (such as sunlight) is in the frame, colored circles or light streaks (ghosting) may occur in your Nikon Digital Camera images. Change the position of the light source, or frame the image so that the light source does not enter the frame, and try again.
