What does 'PICtURE ERROR' mean on my Olympus CAMEDIA C-2 ZOOM Digital Camera?
If your Olympus Digital Camera displays 'PICtURE ERROR', the selected picture cannot be played back on the camera. Use image processing software on a PC to view it. If that cannot be done, the image file is partially damaged.
Why doesn't my Olympus CAMEDIA C-2 ZOOM take a picture when I press the shutter button?
If your Olympus Digital Camera isn't taking pictures when you press the shutter button, check the following: * Ensure the lens barrier is open. * Make sure the flash has finished charging (wait for the orange lamp to stop blinking). * Wait for the movie to finish writing to the card (orange lamp stops blinking). * If the card is full, erase unwanted pictures or insert a new card.
Why does the flash not fire on my Olympus CAMEDIA C-2 ZOOM?
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.
Why don't my pictures appear on the monitor of my Olympus CAMEDIA C-2 ZOOM Digital Camera?
If the pictures you've already taken don't appear on the monitor of your Olympus Digital Camera, first, ensure the camera is on by closing the lens barrier and pressing the power button. If it’s in shooting mode, press the playback button quickly twice, or close the lens barrier and then press the playback button to switch to playback mode. Also, make sure the card isn't empty and that the camera isn't connected to a TV. If there's still an issue, there might be a problem with the card.
