Why Your Digital Camera Keeps Turning On And Off

Have you ever wondered why your digital camera keeps turning on and off? If you have taken a few minutes to read this article, then you have already discovered the most common cause for this problem. This is called “mesa”. In case you didn’t know, mesa is an area of memory where images are stored.

You see, when you activate the camera and take a picture, the camera reads the memory and creates a file. When you turn it off, the same process happens, the camera turns off the memory card and saves the image. But what if you switch the camera on but then turn it off again immediately after taking the photo? Your camera keeps turning on and off constantly.

Fortunately, you can stop this annoying problem by taking a few simple steps. One of the first things you should do is turn off the auto-focus option (if it’s available in your camera). Now simply press the camera icon next to the viewfinder and flip through the menus until you find an option to disable the auto-focus. The next step is to press the camera button and move the stick in and out. By doing this, you should be able to stop your camera from constantly turning on and off.
