2: The flash is activated 2 times.
• When you select red-eye reduction
(P47), the flash is activated once before
the actual recording to reduce the
red-eye phenomenon (eyes of the
subject appearing red in the picture)
and then activated again for the actual
recording.
w
Playback
1: The picture being played back is
rotated and displayed in an
unexpected direction.
The camera has a function that
automatically rotates the display of
pictures recorded holding the camera
vertically. (If you take pictures when
aiming the camera up or down, the
camera may recognize that it is being
held vertically.)
• You can display the pictures without
being rotated when [ROTATE DISP.]
(P104) is set to [OFF].
• You can rotate pictures with the
[ROTATE] function. (P104)
2: The picture is not played back.
• Is the mode dial set to playback [
]?
• Is the card inserted?
• Is there a picture in the card?
3: The folder number and the file number
are displayed as [—] and the screen
turns black.
• Is the picture edited with a PC or
recorded with a digital camera from
another manufacturer?
This may also happen if the battery is
removed immediately after recording or
if recording with a exhausted battery.
– Format the data to delete the pictures
mentioned above. (P111) (Formatting
irretrievably deletes all data including
the other pictures. Check the data
carefully before formatting.)
4: The picture is displayed with a date
different from the actual recording
date in calendar playback.
• Was the picture edited with a PC or
recorded with a digital camera from
another manufacturer?
This kind of picture may be displayed
with a date different from the actual
recording date in calendar playback.
(P79)
• Is the clock in the camera set properly?
(P28)
For example, if the clock setting on the
camera is different from the date and
time set on the PC and you acquire
pictures recorded with the camera to
the PC and then write them back to the
card, the pictures may be displayed with
dates different from the actual recording
dates in calendar playback etc.
w
TV, PC and printer
1: The picture does not appear on the
television.
• Is the camera connected to the TV
correctly?
• Set the TV input to external input mode.
2: The display areas on the TV screen
and the camera’s LCD monitor are
different.
Depending on the TV model, the area
display may be smaller so the picture
may be stretched horizontally or
vertically and the top and bottom or left
and right of the picture may be cut off
when it is displayed. This is due to the
TV specifications and is not a
malfunction.
3: The motion pictures cannot be played
back on a TV.
• Are you trying to play back the motion
pictures by directly inserting the card in
the card slot of the TV?
– Connect the camera to the TV with
the AV cable (supplied) and then play
back the pictures on the camera.
