LCD Screen notes:

Extremely high-precision technology has been used to manufacture the LCD screen so that most of the pixels are operational for use. However, there may be some minute points (black, white, red, blue or green) that constantly appear on the LCD screen. These points are normal in the manufacturing process and the recording is not affected in any way.

Avoid exposing the LCD screen to water; please remove any mo dry cleaning cloth.

If the LCD monitor is damaged, take particular care with the liquid crystal in the monitor. If any of the following situations arise, take the recommended immediate action indicated below:

• If liquid crystal comes in contact with your skin, wipe the area with a cloth and then wash thoroughly with soap and running water.

• If liquid crystal gets into your eye, ﬂush the affected eye with clean water for at least 15 minutes and then seek medical assistance.

• If the liquid crystal display or the liquid inside it are swallowed, ﬂush your mouth thoroughly with water. Drink large quantities of water and induce vomiting. Then seek medical assistance immediately.

WB (White Balance)

The White Balance allows you to adjust the color temperature for different lighting sources to ensure faithful color reproduction.

The options for White Balance include:

WB: Auto

•

WB: Daylight

•

WB: Cloudy

•

WB: Fluorescent

•

WB: Fluorescent CWF

WB: Incandescent

•

WB: Manual (Press the Shutter button to

detect WB)

ISO

The ISO function allows you to set the sensitivity of the camera's sensor based on the brightness of the scene. To improve the camera's sensor performance in darker environments, a higher ISO value is required. On the other hand, a lower ISO value is needed when in bright conditions.

Pictures at higher ISO will naturally have more noise than those at lower ISO.

The camera's ISO settings include automatic, 80, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600 and 3200.

The available ISO values vary on different camera models.

AgfaPhoto SELECTA 16 AgfaPhoto SELECTA 16

Quality

The camera's quality setting adjusts the compression ratio of the images. Higher quality settings produce better quality photos, but will take up more memory space.

There are three options for picture quality:

•

: Quality: Best

•

: Quality: Fine

•

: Quality: Normal

Size

The size setting refers to the image resolution in pixels. A higher image resolution allows you to print that image in larger sizes without degrading the image quality.

The bigger the number of recorded pixels is, the better the image quality becomes. As the number of recorded pixels becomes smaller, you will be able to record more images on a memory card.

Color

The color setting allows you to add artistic color effects when taking pictures. You can try different color tones to alter the mood of your pictures.

The color options include:

•

Color: Auto

•

Color: Vivid

Color: Black & White

•

Color: Sepia
