Auto Flash Control did not end within the specified time. JPEG processing did not end within the specified time. Movement of the lens barrel did not end within the specified time. When the CF becomes full during writing of photographed images to CF, writing is repeatedly performed with the JPEG compression ratio successively increased to reduce the size of the image file until it can be successfully written to CF. This error occurs when writing of the JPEG image file fails after 10 retries at increasingly higher compression ratios. The power of the imaging circuit on the MAIN PCB ASSY was not detected.

of photographed images to SD, writing is
repeatedly performed with the JPEG
compression ratio successively increased
to reduce the size of the image file until it
can be successfully written to SD.
This error occurs when writing of the
JPEG image file fails after 10 retries at
increasingly higher compression ratios.
The power of the imaging circuit on the

Detection of the focus PI (photo-

POWER ON ERROR FOCUS PI ERROR CAPTURE TIME OUT
Occurrence Conditions AF processing did not end within the specified time. The focus lens was not driven.
Auto Flash Control did not end within the specified time. JPEG processing did not end within the specified time. Movement of the lens barrel did not end within the specified time. When the CF becomes full during writing of photographed images to CF, writing is repeatedly performed with the JPEG compression ratio successively increased to reduce the size of the image file until it can be successfully written to CF. This error occurs when writing of the JPEG image file fails after 10 retries at increasingly higher compression ratios. The power of the imaging circuit on the MAIN PCB ASSY was not detected. Detection of the focus PI (photo­interrupter) failed. Writing of the photograph image to SDRAM did not end within the specified time.
