  • Kan ikke tage billeder: Check if a memory card is inserted and has sufficient free space. Ensure the lens is properly attached and the lens cap is removed.
  • Billederne er slørede: Verify that the lens is in focus. Check the shutter speed; a slow shutter speed may cause blur due to camera shake (use SR or a tripod).
  • Autofokus virker ikke: Ensure the AF/MF switch on the lens or camera is set to AF. Check lighting conditions; very low light may hinder autofocus.
