The FinePix S5100 takes two rechargeable batteries.
The Fujifilm FinePix S5100 is a 4.0-megapixel digital camera released in 2004. It benefits from full automatic and manual exposure modes, digital zoom up to 3.6x and shutter speeds ranging from 1/2,000 to 15 seconds. It also has a video and voice capture function. Fuji no longer manufactures the FinePix S5100, but it is still possible to pick up refurbished and secondhand models. If you are experiencing any problems with your camera, you can take a number of steps to troubleshoot the problem.
Instructions
1. Remove the batteries and clean the elements in the battery compartment with a small amount of rubbing alcohol and a cloth. Dirt and debris can interfere with the connection between the batteries and the elements.
2. Reinsert the batteries ensuring that they are inserted correctly.
3. Plug the AC adapter into the camera and then plug it into a wall outlet to charge.
4. Replace the current batteries with new ones if the camera fails to charge properly. Old batteries can lose their ability to retain energy over time.
5. Make sure an xD picture card with adequate space has been inserted into the camera before taking a picture. If the card is full, you will not be able to capture any images.
6. Remove the card and wipe the contact area with a dry cloth if the camera will not take a picture. If the camera still doesn't work, try another card.
7. Make sure that the flash is popped up and fully charged before attempting to use.
8. Clean the lens with the cloth and rubbing alcohol to ensure that no dirt or debris can affect picture quality.
9. Ensure that you have framed your shot correctly before taking a picture. If you are too near your subject or have not taken the lighting conditions into account, your image could appear too dark or blurry.
