Why does the flash not fire on my Olympus CAMEDIA C-2 ZOOM?
- S
  Sarah WeaverSep 8, 2025
  If your Olympus Digital Camera flash doesn't fire, ensure the flash has popped up fully and that you're not pressing it down. Also, check that the flash is not set to the flash off mode. If the subject is already well-lit, set the flash to fill-in mode. Note that the flash doesn't fire in sequential shooting or movie mode, or panorama mode, so adjust settings in the DRIVE menu or close and reopen the lens barrier, respectively.

  ramirezrobertSep 4, 2025
  If your Olympus Digital Camera picture is out of focus, hold the camera correctly and press the shutter button gently to avoid camera movement. When using macro mode, ensure the subject is within the shooting range. If using the self-timer, look into the viewfinder while pressing the shutter. In low light, avoid the flash off mode, and use a tripod or hold the camera firmly. Cancel the self-portrait mode if you don't want to use it.
