Default Digital Camera Help

Hi collective

Just tried to take some photos of my Motosliders bings and the pictures are all blurred. I notice that all the photos taken over past few weeks are blurred and that the AF warning is showing on my camera. It looks like my digi cam is goosed.

Does anyone who knows about cameras know if there is somewhere on the web with known issues / fixes for cameras (cannot find by Google)? Or indeed can anyone help trouble shoot my problem? The camera is a Fuji A345 4.1 megapixel, only about 15 months old and hardly used. The camera has not been damaged / dropped / water etc to my knowledge.

Thanks

You sure the camera is not in macro mode (indicated by a small flower)?

Any ideas? References?

Have your exposure settings in the etc been changed from factory default? This can reverse what the macro does, so the macro reverts to factory defaults temporarily.

Why not take 2 pics....one of something 5 meters away in normal mode and then something half meter away in macro mode and then i could give you some help but without pics not a lot can be done.

You cant affect macro mode as it is a setting that is fixed and the settings can not be changed by a user on a simple camera like that
