Playback
The picture being played back is not rotated, or is rotated in an unexpected
direction, when displayed.
The picture is not played back.
There are no recorded pictures.
The folder number and the file number are displayed as [—] and the screen turns
black.
Images with different date as recorded date are played back in the Calendar
Playback.
White round spots like soap bubbles appear on the recorded picture.
•
If you take a picture with the flash in a dark place or indoors, white round
spots may appear on the picture caused by the flash reflecting of particles of
dust in the air. This is not a malfunction.
A characteristic of this is that the number of round spots and their position
differ in every picture.
