The Power Will Not Turn On

The battery is in, but the camera will not turn on

If the camera will not turn on it, this could be because the battery is not inserted properly. Check the battery and make sure that the “three gold connectors on the battery” are facing inward and they connect to the “golden connectors inside the camera.”

———————————————————————————————————————————————-

The battery or camera’s connectors are dirty

Materials:

  • Dry Cloth or Cotton Pad / Q-Tip

The battery’s connectors can get messy overtime. Check your connectors to make sure they are clean. When they are dirty use a dry cloth or anything cotton to clean them. The connectors should like shiny when the battery is clean.

The camera’s battery port may also get dirty overtime as well, since the battery port is deep it is best to use a “Q-Tip” to clean the connectors.

Computer Does Not Recognize USB Connection

The USB cable is not compatible

Some usb cables will prevent data transfer on the camera. Use the usb cable that is provided with your camera. The supplied cable will have “Sony Corp” written on it.

The USB ports on the camera or cable are dirty

If either the USB port located on the camera or the cable itself is dirty or dusty, it’s likely that it could cause connection issues.

Gentle wipe the ports on both ends OR use the compressed air to blow the dust or debris out of the ports.

Camera Takes Blurry And Out-of-Focus Photos

Everytime I take a picture it’s all blurry and out-of-focus.

Camera Lens is Dirty

Tools Needed

  • Clean Cloth
  • Lens Cleaning Solution
  • Air Blower or Soft-Bristled Brush (After-care)

Put a drop or two of the lens cleaning solution onto the camera lens. Gently wipe the lens with the cleaning cloth in a circular motion, making sure not to leave any trails. Leave to dry.

A light air blower or a soft-bristled brush is recommended to prevent future issues. These accessories will get rid of dust and fingerprint smudges.

Camera is on Wrong Setting

The Sony DSC-RX10M3 has many focusing options, including a manual focus mode which causes the user to focus the lens themselves. If this mode is selected, ensure the lens is properly set.

To change to automatic focus mode, Turn the focus mod dial (A), located at front bottom left side of the camera to S (for pictures) or C (for videos).

Changing the focus area will also help. (Menu -> Camera Settings -> Focus Area -> Desired Setting)

Camera Viewfinder is Broken

If all the information above does not resolve the issues, the camera viewfinder is most likely broken. You may want to order a replacement from the Sony website, other websites or a camera shop.

Camera Does Not Flash When Taking Pictures

When I take pictures, my flash does not go off.

Camera is On Wrong Setting

To change flash settings (Menu -> Camera Settings -> Flash Mode -> Desired Settings)

The test if there is an issues with the flash, select the Fill-Flash Setting. The camera should flash every time a photo is taken. If not, the flash assembly may be malfunctioning.

If the setting was on Autoflash previously, remember that flash only occurs whenever the camera senses a dark environment or when shooting towards a bright light. If this is the case, there may be issues with the Camera Body/Casing, blocking the sensors.

Camera Body/Casing Damage

The camera body needs to be replaced. The best method would be to send it to Sony or a local repair shop as replacing the body is an extremely hard task. For a guide to replace the camera body go to: Sony DSC-RX10M3 Back and Right Panel Replacement

Flash Assembly is malfunctioning

The flash assembly may be loose or dirty. In this case you would need to open up the device. To learn how to repair a flash assembly, follow the Flash Replacement Guide: Sony DSC-RX10M3 Flash Replacement
