Troubleshooting

If you are still having problems after you receive your unit, please check out these troubleshooting tips:

Batteries - Improper battery type and installation is common with digital cameras and can lead to limited power charge or failure to power up.

Recommeded Batteries - If your camera came with a proprietary battery from the manufacturer, we recommend the use of the manufacturer's batteries.


If your camera uses AA batteries:

  • First option: AA NIMH rechargeable batteries
  • Second option: AA Lithium batteries

Installation - Many proprietary batteries can accidentally be installed backwards or upside down. This will result in the camera's failure to power up. Refer to your operation manual for proper installation or try to reverse the battery to receive power.

Memory Cards - In addition to your camera's internal memory, digital cameras have the ability to store images on a memory card. It's important to use your memory card exclusively with your camera and not interchange them. Using the same card with multiple cameras can cause the memory card to malfunction.

Formatting - Most memory cards are formatted by your computer automatically upon first use. If you are having problems with your memory card, it may need to be re-formatted by using a few steps on your computer. To get help walking you through the formatting process, please refer to our 'formatting memory cards' section in the FAQ section of our website.
