Noise reduction is activated
• When shooting night scenes, shutter speeds are slower and noise tends to appear in
images. The camera activates the noise-reduction process after shooting at slow shutter
speeds. During which, shooting is not allowed. You can set [Noise Reduction] to [O].
g [Noise Reduction] (P. 117)
The number of AF targets is reduced
The size and number of the AF target changes depending on the [Digital Tele-converter]
(P. 166), [Aspect] (P. 144), group target (P. 77), [Drive j/Y] and [nImage Stabilizer]
settings.
The date and time has not been set
The camera is used with the settings at the time of purchase
• The date and time of the camera is not set when purchased. Set the date and time before
using the camera. g
“Initial setup” (P. 31)
The battery has been removed from the camera
• The date and time settings will be returned to the factory default settings if the camera is
left without the battery for approximately 1 day (in-house measurements). The settings
will be canceled more quickly if the battery was only loaded in the camera for a short time
before being removed. Before taking important pictures, check that the date and time
settings are correct.
Set functions are restored to their factory default settings
Settings adjusted in custom modes (modes C1–C4) will be reset to saved values when
another shooting mode is selected or the camera is turned o. If [Hold] is selected for [Save
Settings] when a custom mode is selected, changes to settings will automatically be saved
to the selected mode. g “Saving the Changes Made to Settings while in Custom Modes”
(P. 57)
Image taken appears whitish
This may occur when the picture is taken in backlight or semi-backlight conditions. This is
due to a phenomenon called are or ghosting. As far as possible, consider a composition
where strong light source is not taken in the picture. Flare may occur even when a light
source is not present in the picture. Use a lens hood to shade the lens from the light
source. If a lens hood does not have eect, use your hand to shade the lens from the light.
g “Interchangeable lenses” (P. 291)
Unknown bright dot(s) appear on the subject in the picture taken
This may be due to stuck pixel(s) on the image pickup device. Perform [Pixel Mapping].
If the problem persists, repeat pixel mapping a few times. g “Pixel Mapping - Checking the
image processing functions” (P. 305)
