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 power button is pressed.
•	 Confirm	that	the	battery	pack	is	charged	(=  12).
•	 Confirm	that	the	battery	pack	is	inserted	facing	the	correct	way	(=  13).
•	 Confirm	that	the	memory	card/battery	cover	is	fully	closed	(=  14).
•	 Dirty battery terminals reduce battery performance. Try cleaning the terminals with a 
cotton swab and reinserting the battery pack a few times.
The battery pack runs out of power quickly.•	Battery performance decreases at low temperatures. Try warming the battery pack a 
little by putting it in your pocket, for example, ensuring that the term\
inals do not touch 
any metal objects.
•	 If these measures do not help and the battery pack still runs out of pow\
er soon after 
charging, it has reached the end of its life. Purchase a new battery pac\
k.
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 (=  14).
The battery pack is swollen.•	Battery swelling is normal and does not pose any safety concerns. Howeve\
r, if 
battery	swelling	prevents	the	battery	pack	from	fitting	in	the	camera,	contact	a	Canon	Customer Support Help Desk.
Display on a TV
Camera images look distorted or not displayed on a TV ( =  165).
Shooting
Cannot shoot.•	In Playback mode ( =  101), press the shutter button halfway (=  22).

Note that the following display problems are not recorded in still image\
s but are 
recorded in movies.
•	 The
	screen	may	flicker	and	horizontal	banding	may	appear	under	fluorescent	or	LED	lighting.
No date stamp is added to images.•	Configure	the	[Date	Stamp	] setting (=  38). Note that date stamps are not 
added	to	images	automatically,	merely	because	you	have	configured	the	[Date/Time]	setting (=  14).
•	 Date stamps are not added in shooting modes ( =  201) in which this setting cannot 
be	configured	( =  38).
[h]	flashes	on	the	screen	when	the	shutter	button	is	pressed,	and	shooting is not possible ( =  32).
[
] is displayed when the shutter button is pressed halfway (=  32).•	 Set [IS Mode] to [Continuous] (=  89).
•	 Raise	the	flash	and	set	the	flash	mode	to	[h] (=  85).
•	 Increase the ISO speed (=  70).
•	 Mount the camera on a tripod or take other measures to keep it still. In\
 this case, you 
should set [IS Mode] to [Off] (=
  89).
Shots are out of focus.•	Press the shutter button halfway to focus on subjects before pressing it\
 all the way 
down to shoot (=  22).
•	 Make sure subjects are within focusing range ( =  205).
•	 Set [AF-assist Beam] to [On] ( =  48).
•	 Confirm	that	unneeded	functions	such	as	macro	are	deactivated.
•	 Try shooting with focus lock or AF lock (=
  81, 85).

utter button 
halfway. Otherwise, try pressing the shutter button halfway repeatedly.
Subjects in shots look too dark.•	Raise	the	flash	and	set	the	flash	mode	to	[h] (=  85).

•	 Adjust	brightness	by	using	flash	exposure	compensation	or	changing	the	flash	output	level (=  86, 94).
White	dots	or	similar	image	artifacts	appear	in	flash	shots.
•	This	is	caused	by	light	from	the	flash	reflecting	off	dust	or	airborne	particles.
Shots look grainy.•	Lower the ISO speed (=  70).
•	 High ISO speeds in some shooting modes may cause grainy images ( =  53).
Subjects are affected by red-eye (=  45).•	Set [Red-Eye Lamp] to [On] (=  49) to activate the red-eye reduction lamp 
(=  3)	in	flash	shots.	For	best	results,	have	subjects	look	at	the	red-eye	reduction	lamp. Also try increasing the lighting in indoor scenes and shooting at closer\
 range.
•	 Edit images using red-eye correction ( =  121).
Recording to the memory card takes too long, or continuous shooting 
is slower.
•	Use the camera to perform low-level formatting of the memory card ( =  154).
Shooting settings or FUNC. menu settings are not available.•	Available setting items vary by shooting mode. Refer to “Functions Available in Each 
Shooting Mode”, “FUNC. Menu”, and “Shooting Tab Menu” (=  193 – 201).

Shooting Movies
The elapsed time shown is incorrect, or recording is interrupted.•	Use the camera to format the memory card, or switch to a card that suppo\
rts high-
speed recording. Note that even if the elapsed time display is incorrect\
, the length 
of movies on the memory card corresponds to the actual recording time (\
 =
  153, 
205).
[] is displayed and shooting stops automatically.The	camera’s	internal	memory	buffer	filled	up	as	the	camera	could	not	record	to	the	memory	card	quickly	enough.	Try	one	of	the	following	measures.
•	 Use the camera to perform low-level formatting of the memory card ( =  154).
•	 Lower	the	image	quality	(=  46).
•	 Switch to a memory card that supports high-speed recording ( =  205).
