Q&A
Troubleshooting
(Continued)
LCD monitor
LCD monitor dims during motion picture recording.
LCD monitor may dim if continuing motion picture recording for long periods.
Monitor sometimes shuts off even though power is on.
Camera set to ‘AUTO LCD OFF’ (P.23).
After recording, monitor shuts off until next picture can be recorded. (Approx. 6
seconds (Max.) when recording to the built-in memory)
Brightness is unstable.
Aperture value is set while shutter button is pressed halfway.
(Does not affect recorded picture.)
Monitor flickers indoors.
Monitor may flicker after turning on (prevents influence from fluorescent lighting).
Monitor is too bright/too dark.
Adjust ‘MONITOR’ setting (P.21).
Camera set to ‘LCD MODE’ (P.22).
Black/blue/red/green dots or interference appears. Monitor looks distorted when
touched.
This is not a fault, and will not be recorded on the actual pictures, so there is no need
to worry.
Date/age is not displayed.
Current date, ‘TRAVEL DATE’ (P.67), and ages in ‘BABY’ and ‘PET’ (P.55) scene
modes are only displayed for approx. 5 sec. after start-up, setting changes, or mode
changes. They cannot be always displayed.
Flash
No flash emitted.
Flash set to ‘FORCED FLASH OFF (P.43).
When set to ‘AUTO ’, flash may not be emitted in certain conditions.
Flash cannot be emitted in the ‘SCENERY’, ‘PANORAMA ASSIST’, ‘NIGHT
SCENERY’, ‘SUNSET’, ‘HI-SPEED BURST’, ‘FIREWORKS’, ‘STARRY SKY’, and
‘AERIAL PHOTO’ scene modes, or when using ‘AUTO BRACKET’ or ‘BURST’.
No flash is emitted when recording a motion picture.
Multiple flashes are emitted.
Red-eye reduction is active (P.43). (Flashes twice to prevent eyes appearing red.)
The scene mode is set to ‘FLASH BURST’.
Playback
Pictures have been rotated.
‘ROTATE DISP.’ is set to ‘ON’.
(Automatically rotates pictures from portrait to landscape. Some pictures taken facing
up or facing down may be interpreted as being portrait.)
Set ‘ROTATE DISP.’ to ‘OFF’.
Playback (continued)
Cannot view pictures.
REC/PLAY switch is not set to (play).
No pictures in built-in memory or card (pictures played from card if inserted, from built-
in memory if not).
Camera set to ‘CATEGORY PLAY’ or ‘FAVORITE PLAY’.
Set playback mode to ‘NORMAL PLAY’ (P.85).
Folder/file number displayed as ‘-’. Picture is black.
Picture edited on computer or taken on different device.
Battery removed immediately after picture taken, or picture taken with low battery.
Use ‘FORMAT’ to delete (P.26).
Incorrect date displayed in calendar playback.
Picture edited on computer or taken on different device.
‘CLOCK SET’ is incorrect (P.17).
(Incorrect date may be displayed in calendar playback on pictures copied to computer
and then back to camera, if computer and camera dates differ.)
Depending on the subject, an interference fringe may appear on the screen.
This is called moire. This is not a malfunction.
White round spots like soap bubbles appear on the recorded picture.
If you take a picture with the flash in a dark place or indoors,
white round spots may appear on the picture caused by the flash
reflecting particles of dust in the air. This is not a fault. A characteristic
of this is that the number of round spots and their position differ in
every picture.
Blacken red areas of recorded pictures.
If subjects in pictures taken with RED-EYE reduction flash settings ( , , )
contain patterns where areas of red are surrounded by colours close to skin colours,
the digital red-eye correction function may cause these red areas to be blackened.
In such cases, using , or the or flash modes is recommended.
Sounds of camera operations will be recorded in motion pictures.
Camera operation sounds may be recorded as camera automatically adjusts lens
aperture during motion picture recording; this is not a fault.
Motion pictures and pictures with audio taken by this camera cannot be played in
other cameras.
Motion pictures and pictures with audio taken with this camera may not always be
able to be played back with cameras by other manufacturers. Playback may also not
be possible with certain Panasonic digital cameras (LUMIX).
Cameras launched before December 2008, and some cameras launched in 2009
(FS, LS Series).
In some cases, motion pictures and pictures with audio taken by this camera cannot be
played back by digital cameras from other companies, and they also cannot be played
in Panasonic digital cameras (LUMIX) that were sold before July 2008.
Motion pictures recorded in ‘AVCHD Lite’ format cannot be played in devices that do
not support AVCHD. In some cases, motion pictures cannot be played back correctly
in AVCHD-compatible devices.
