My Fuji ins tax wide camera won't let me push the button to take a picture I have changed

You'll probably need to take it to a repair expert because the internal component needs to be replaced. Because of the age of the device, lack of replacement parts, it will be hard to find someone who is capable of doing it. Might want to consider an upgrade/replacement.

What does it say on the screen?

This might be your problem if the camera is functioning properly then you may have pushed the Disp/Back button in the lower left corner on the five way controller dial. Push the button and the display on the view screen will change.

Keep the camera on AUTO, and refocus on every shot (push the button down until you see the green cross-hairs in the center of your subject - let up and then "snap" your photo).

To change the battery - open the door on the bottom right.

the solution......you should click the button only once.....then the picture will be taken only once.....if you press the button and keep it for some time it will take multiple pictures.....for taking a photo just click a button once......this will solve your problem.....if the problem still persists then the problem is in your camera.....that you can repair it by giving it in the company of the camera.....this will solve your problem 100%........

I have the same camera with the same problem.I tried the new batteries.Didn't work.I tried holding down the battery back.Didn't work.Took out the memory card and pushed the on button and it said memory card was full,but the memory card wasnt in it.So try taking out the memory card and see if it tells you the problem.I erased some pictures and it worked.

The switch is a metal button on the right side of the camera (when looking at the view screen). It's on the left side of the long Wide and Telefoto button. See the picture below to help you, it's in the red circle.

It works fine for me. Reember it works ONLY in P mode. The problem is due to the Fuji E550 does not provide focus indicator, you have to judge the image to see when the object is in right focus.

I have this same problem. If I shut the camera off then on again it clears up. Someone from Fuji said that this is because the Auto-Focus is stuck on. They advised to half push the shutter button to release the auto-focus.
