+ | ==Stuck Lens== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | "The lens of my camera is not working, will not retract back into the camera, or is stuck at partial or full extension." |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | ===Restart the camera=== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | If the lens will not retract, restarting the camera can fix this issue. |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | ===Replace the batteries=== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | If restarting does not fix the lens, the batteries may be low on charge When the battery is low it usually will not be able to provide enough power to adjust lens range. |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | LCD lens cap error message can be resolved by restarting the camera. |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | ==Monitor Screen is Cracked/Damaged== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | "The monitor glass of my camera is cracked or scratched and I cannot clearly see what is onscreen." |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | ==Camera Will Not Power On== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | "My camera is not turning on." |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | ===Batteries are oreiented incorrectly=== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | The batteries need to be inserted with the correct polarity facing up. There are markings next to each battery slot that denote how each battery needs to be placed. |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | ===Drained/faulty battery=== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | If your camera won't turn on, the batteries might be drained. Try recharging your batteries with the battery charger and then check if the camera turns on. If it still does not work after charging the batteries, the batteries are most likely faulty. Open the battery compartment and remove the old batteries. Then place the newly charged batteries in the compartment and close the compartment door. |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | ===Batteries not touching electrical contacts=== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | If the batteries are fitting too loosing in the compartment, this may be the reason why your camera isn't turning on or is turning on and off intermittantly. |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | ===Faulty battery compartment=== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | If your camera is unable to turn on, even with a new set of batteries, the battery compartment is most likely the cause of the problem. Replace the battery compartment to take care of this problem. |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | ==Camera Not Reading Memory Card== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | "My camera is not reading the memory card and it shows an error message." |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | ===Card Error or Card Not Initialized=== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | The "Card Error" or "Card Not Initialized" message, indicates that your memory may be temporarily corrupted. This can be caused by not formatting your memory card on a consistent basis. We recommend formatting your memory card in your camera after saving the images from your previous shooting session. Once a memory card is formatted, the images will not be recoverable. |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | ===The Camera Will Not Read the Memory Card=== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | Make sure all of the metal contact points on the memory card are clean; you may use a soft, dry cloth to gently clean them. Make sure the card is inserted in the camera correctly. Finally, you may need to format the card, which will erase any photos stored. Use this only as a last resort. |

---|
+ | ==Choosing Correct Aperture When in Aperture Priority (“A”) Mode== |
---|
+ | |
---|
+ | "I can't figure out how to set the shutter speed and aperture in "A" mode." |
