Why does my Panasonic Digital Camera turn off automatically?
Your Panasonic Digital Camera might turn off automatically if it is connected to a TV compatible with VIERA Link via an HDMI mini cable, and the TV is turned off using its remote control. If you are not using VIERA Link, set the [VIERA Link] setting to [OFF].
Why is my Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ25 Digital Camera not working even when turned on?
The camera may not work even if the power is turned on if the battery is not inserted correctly or needs recharging.
What to do if my Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ25 cannot record pictures?
If your Panasonic Digital Camera cannot record pictures, ensure that the REC/PLAY switch is set to (record). Also, the built-in memory or card might be full. Free up space by deleting unwanted pictures.
Why does the charging lamp turn off early on my Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ25 Digital Camera?
The charging lamp might turn off before the battery is fully charged if charging is being performed in a place with extremely high or low temperature. Reconnect the USB connection cable and retry charging in a place where the ambient temperature is 10 °C to 30 °C (50 °F to 86 °F).
Why can't I view pictures on my Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ25 and it says there are no recorded pictures?
If you cannot view pictures and the camera indicates there are no recorded pictures, ensure the REC/PLAY switch is set to (play). Also, check if there are no pictures in the built-in memory or card. If pictures were played from a card when inserted, they will be played from built-in memory if not. If the file name of the picture has been changed on a computer, it cannot be played back on the camera. Finally, verify that the [Playback Mode] is set to [Normal Play].
Why are my recorded pictures blurred with my Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ25 Digital Camera?
Recorded pictures may appear blurred because the shutter speed is slower in dark locations, making the Optical Image Stabiliser less effective. To improve this, hold the camera firmly with both hands, keeping your arms close to your body.
How to fix white recorded pictures on my Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ25?
If recorded pictures look white, it could be due to a dirty lens (fingerprints, etc.). Turn on the power to extract the lens barrel, and then clean the lens surface with a soft, dry cloth.
Why does motion picture recording stop midway on my Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ25 Digital Camera?
Motion picture recording might stop midway due to several reasons. If [Rec Quality] of [AVCHD] motion pictures is set to [FSH], you can continuously record a motion picture for up to 29 minutes 59 seconds. You can continuously record a motion picture in [MP4] for up to 29 minutes 59 seconds or approximately 4 GB (in [FHD] for up to approximately 24 minutes 43 seconds). With some cards, access display may appear briefly after recording, and recording may end midway. If this happens even with a card of the recommended speed class, back up the data on the memory card and format it.
