Troubleshooting and error codes

ProblemSolution
1. The flash is not working.The battery power is low. The camera is in DC power mode. In flash auto mode, camera flash fires ONLY when necessary (in dark setting as example).
2. The files on the memory card do not display smoothly when the LCD shows the "!" marking.The "!" mark means the SD card is low speed or is having wrong content inside. The way to solve this condition is to format SD card by the camera instead of a PC. (Please refer to the detailed Format instruction in User' Manual - Section 5). Or please change the SD/SDHC/SDXC card to a high speed one.
3. Why do some of my indoor photos look blurry and dark?The camera extends photo exposure time under low light/ indoor condition. Keep the camera (and the target subject) steady for several seconds when taking photo.
4. How do I charge battery?You must use the supplied AC charger or the USB cable. The camera must be turned OFF; blinking light confirms charging, and the light becomes constant after the charging has been completed. In AC charging Mode, the light will turn itself off automatically after 3-5 minutes . The full charge time is about 4 to 5 hours. (Actual charging time may vary. It depends on the battery conditions.)
5. After connecting the USB cable to the computer, ......1. The disk [DV] shows the internal memory of the camera. (The disk label may be different according to different model and PC OS.) 2. [Removable Disk] shows the external memory. (Under the circumstances of within the SD/SDHC/SDXC card in the camera) 3. The disk [DVAPI] shows the built-in Internet Direct application is saved at most. Please DO NOT format this disk or delete the application inside; otherwise, the Internet Direct application can not function.
