Troubleshoot A Pentax Optio M30 Camera

The Pentax Optio M30 is a 7.1 megapixel digital point-and-shoot camera with a 3x optical zoom and face-recognition autofocus technology, making it much easier to take snapshots of your friends while out and about. It also has high ISO settings that make getting shots in low light situations much more likely. The M30 is PictBridge compatible, so you can print photos directly from the camera to PictBridge-equipped printers. You can troubleshoot minor problems with the M30.


Instructions


1. Charge the battery fully on the charger and make sure is inserted properly, with the positive and negative contacts aligned, if the camera doesn't turn on.


2. Disconnect the camera from a computer, printer or TV if there is no image on the LCD screen. Bright sun also can make it hard to see images on the LCD, so take the camera into a shaded location and look at the LCD again.


3. Insert a new memory card or format the existing one if depressing the shutter doesn't take a picture. Before formatting a memory card, make sure you have downloaded all the pictures you want to save.


4. Move closer to the subject and refocus if the image is dark or blurry; you may need better framing to get the right shot.


5. Press "Menu," then press the right arrow, then press the down arrow and check the USB connection settings if the camera won't print to a printer or if images can't be downloaded to a computer. You have to set it to "PC" for a computer connection and "PictBridge" for direct printing.
