Troubleshooting
If you think there is a problem with the camera, first check the following.
If the items below do not solve your problem, contact a Canon Customer
Support Help Desk.
Power
Nothing happens when the ON/OFF button is pressed.
Confirm that new batteries of the correct type are inserted (=
15, 16).
Confirm that the batteries are inserted facing the correct way (=
15).
Confirm that the memory card/battery cover is fully closed (=
16).
Dirty battery terminals reduce battery performance. Try cleaning the terminals with a
cotton swab and reinserting the batteries a few times.
Batteries are depleted quickly.
Battery performance decreases at low temperatures. Try warming the batteries a little
by putting them in your pocket, for example, ensuring that the terminals do not touch
any metal objects.
The lens is not retracted.
Do not open the memory card/battery cover while the camera is on. Close the cover,
turn the camera on, and then turn it off again (=
16).
Display on a TV
Camera images look distorted or not displayed on a TV (=
163).
Shooting
Cannot shoot.
In Playback mode (=
19), press the shutter button halfway (=
35).
Strange display on the screen under low light (=
36).
Strange display on the screen when shooting.
Note that the following display problems are not recorded in still images but are
recorded in movies.
The screen may darken under bright light.
The screen may flicker under fluorescent or LED lighting.
Purplish banding may appear on the screen if you compose a shot that includes a
bright light source.
No date stamp is added to images.
Configure the [Date Stamp] setting (
=
52
). Note that date stamps are not added to images
automatically, merely because you have configured the [Date/Time] setting (
=
17
).
Date stamps are not added in shooting modes (=
198 – 199) in which this setting
cannot be configured (=
52).
