Be careful when transferring or disposing of a memory card. When disposing of a memory card, take precautions such as physically destroying the card to prevent personal information leaks.

• The total capacity of the memory card displayed in the formatting screen

may be less than indicated on the memory card.

• Perform a low-level format (see Camera User Guide) of the memory card

What if...

• What if the color and brightness of the images do not turn out as

expected?

The scene icon (see Camera User Guide) that appears on the screen may not match the actual scene. If this happens, try shooting in G mode (see Camera User Guide).

• What if white and gray frames appear when you point the camera toward

a subject?

A white frame appears on the face or subject that the camera detected as the main subject, while gray frames appear on other detected faces. The frames will follow the subjects within a certain range. If the subject moves, however, the gray frames will disappear, leaving only the white frame.

• What if a frame does not appear on the subject you want to shoot?

The subject may not be detected, and frames may appear on the background. If this happens, try shooting in G mode (see Camera User Guide).

• What if a blue frame appears when you press the shutter button halfway?

A blue frame appears when a moving subject is detected; the focus and exposure will continuously adjust (Servo AF).

• What if the camera beeps once when the shutter button is pressed

halfway?

Your subject may be too close. When the camera is at maximum wide angle (j), move about 3 cm (1.2 in.) or more away from your subject and shoot. Move about 50 cm (1.6 ft.) or more away when the camera is at maximum telephoto (

• What if the lamp lights when the shutter button is pressed halfway?

To reduce red-eye and to assist in focusing, the lamp may light when shooting in dark areas.

• What if the h icon blinks when you try to shoot?

The flash is charging. You can shoot when recharging ends.
