Question about Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W100 Digital Camera

4 Answers

Sony DSC-W100 I own a sony dsc w100 and it has been taking great photos. Unfortunatly I switched it on today and it no longer seems to be a ble to focus. I have cleaned the lens and the little circular piece of glass (think this bit measures distance for focus) but my photos are still blurred. The camera seems to permenantly have a little icon saying 'saf' in the bottom left corner of the screen. I wonder if this icon is the key to the problem and what it means? Is it a safe mode and if so how do i get it back to normal? Your help is much appreciated Chris

    Um I have the same problem. The camera does not auto focus on anything and the only time that it is actually in focus is when I zoom. It solved itself recently, but then started up with the out of focus during a christmas party, so half my pictures are out of focus.

    i have the same problem with my Cyber shot DSC-T100 which im guessing is a very similar camera. The pictures get a purple tinge and don't focus properly. I find zooming i then out again helps to fix it but is only very temporary

    Mine will switch between shooting modes, and just recently stopped working all together. Does anyone know of a fix?

FINALLY FIXED!

I use my dsc w100 for work all day every day and it started doing the same thing, after trying everything I could find, a few light smacks to the bottom and presto, works like new!!

I have the same problem with my Sony DSC-W100... and now it turns on and off repeatedly and switches between modes... something is definitely wrong with it.

Look in the manual. SAF means Single Auto Focus.

SOURCE: Sony DSC-W100 PROBLEMS

I found a solution that worked for me further on in this site. The person said to reset the camera. On my Sony DSC-W100, I opened the battery/memory slot door and to the left of the memory slot there's a tiny gray dot that I pressed and the problem has gone away.

The date and time (and a lot more) are stored with every picture in its EXIF metadata. Any photo viewing/editing program should be able to display this data. To print this data, please consult the documentation for whatever program you're using to print your pictures. Depending on the program and printer you may print the date on the image, in the margins, or on the back.

Backlight not working on Sony DSC W210 Have just replaced a broken lcd screen on my Sony cybershot dsc w210 myself after breaking it. The new screen has been fitted but now the backlight isn't coming on and you can only see the picture on the screen when you hold the camera under a very bright light. The flash also doesnt seem to be working. Is there perhaps a fuse somewhere that i have blown?
