1. Are you trying to photograph a subject that is difficult to focus on with autofocus?
   Certain subjects are not suitable for autofocus, such as subjects with little or no contrast (blue sky, white walls, etc.), dark subjects, finely patterned subjects, fast-moving subjects, and scenes shot through windows or mesh. First focus on an object that is at the same distance as your subject and lock the focus (by pressing the shutter release button down halfway). Then recompose the shot as you want to take it and release the shutter.
   
   
2. The subject is not in the focusing area.
   Frame the shot so that your subject is inside the [ ] (focusing area) marks on the LCD monitor. If your subject is not inside the focusing area, briefly move the camera so that the desired subject is inside the focusing area and lock the focus (by pressing the shutter release button down halfway). Then recompose the shot as you want to take it and release the shutter.
   
   
3. The subject is too close.
   The effective shooting rang is as follows: Wide-angle: 0.4m to infinity Telephoto: 0.6m to infinity

1. Is the flash mode set to [Flash Off]?
   Set the mode to [Auto] or [Flash On].
2. The drive mode is set to [Continuous Shooting] or the focus mode is set to [Infinity].

1. The subject is too far away in a dark location.
   If the subject is too far away, the picture becomes dark because the light of the flash does not reach the subject.
   Use the following as a guide to flash photography:
   Wide-angle: Approx. 0.1 to 5.0 m
   Telephoto: Approx. 0.6 to 2.7 m (with Auto selected as the ISO setting)


2. The background is too dark.
   When you photograph someone against a dark background, even if your subject is correctly exposed, the light from the flash may not reach the background, so that it appears too dark in the resulting image. You can take a picture that perfectly captures both your subject and nighttime scenery by selecting Night Scene mode (with the [Flash On] flash mode selected) and using a tripod.

1. Is the "Memory card full" message displayed?
   The SD (SDHC) Memory Card is full and no more images can be saved. Insert a new SD (SDHC) Memory Card or delete (erase) some unwanted images. Changing the number of recorded pixels may enable you to save images.
   
   
2. Is the "Memory card error" message displayed?
   Shooting and playback are impossible due to a problem with the SD (SDHC) Memory Card. It may be possible to view your images on a computer.
   
   
3. Is the "Card not formatted" message displayed?
   The SD (SDHC) Memory Card you have inserted is unformatted or has been formatted on a computer or other device. Format the SD (SDHC) Memory Card in the camera using the procedure described in the operating manual.
   
   
4. Is the "Card locked" message displayed?
   The write-protect switch on the SD (SDHC) Memory Card in the camera is locked. This setting prohibits you from recording new data on the card, erasing data or formatting the card. You can only use the menus and change the camera modes.
