Attaching and Removing the Lens Cap
The lens cap opens and closes
automatically in accordance with the
lens position, so you can leave it in
place, if you want. Make sure the lens
cap is attached to the lens so the dot
mark on the cap is upwards, with the
large blades of the cap on the left and
right. If the cap is in the wrong position,
its blades can cause partial darkening
of images when shooting with flash.
Attach the lens cap with the large blades
on the left and right.
Attaching the Neck Strap to the Camera
• Attach either end of the strap to the two strap
rings on the sides of the camera as shown in the
illustration.
• After you are finished pull on the strap to test it
and to make sure it does not come loose.

LCD Panel
The liquid crystal panel of the monitor screen uses high-precision technology that
provides a pixel yield in excess of 99.99%. This means that some very small number
of pixels may not light or may remain lit at all times. This is due to the characteristics
of the liquid crystal panel, and does not indicate malfunction.
Take test shots
Before shooting your final image, shoot a test shot to ensure that the camera is
recording correctly.

Quick Start Basics
What you can do with your CASIO camera
Your CASIO camera is packed with a powerful selection of features and functions to
make recording of digital images easier, including the following main functions.
Intelligent Bracketing
You can use this function to shoot a series of images,
slightly changing the camera setup with each shot.
*See page 63 for more information.
180 degrees
90 degrees
Tiltable Monitor Screen
The camera’s monitor screen can be tiled upwards
up to 180 degrees. This makes it easy to compose
self-portraits and to shoot from low angles.
*See page 19 for more information.
Handsfree Self-portraits
You can control operation of the self-timer from a
distance by waving your hand, which makes it easier to
shoot self-portraits from a distance.
*See page 70 for more information.
Time Lapse Movie
You can use this function to record movies of natural
events that occur over time, to speed up the flow of
traffic in a city scene, or to record other similar types of
movies.
*See page 85 for more information.
Blurred Background
This function analyzes a burst of consecutive images
and then blurs the background behind the main
subject. This creates an effect that really makes the
subject stand out, just like photographs taken with a
single-lens reflex camera.
*See page 93 for more information.
17
Quick Start Basics
ART SHOT
A variety of artistic effects help to make even common,
ordinary subjects become more novel and exciting.
“ART SHOT” provides the following effects: HDR Art,
Toy Camera, Soft Focus, Light Tone, Pop, Sepia,
Monochrome, Miniature, Fisheye, Sparkling Shot,
Crystal ball.
*See page 73 for more information.
Triple Shot
Pressing the shutter button shoots a burst of three
images and stores them in memory. This feature is
great for making sure you don’t miss those special
moments when kids are around.
*See page 95 for more information.
Premium Auto Pro
Select Premium Auto Pro recording and the
camera automatically determines whether you
are shooting a subject or scenery, and other
conditions. Premium Auto Pro delivers higher
image quality than standard Auto.
*See page 34 for more information.
Wireless LAN Connection
Turns your smartphone into a camera remote
controller and allows you to send images recorded with
your camera to your smartphone.
*See page 154 for more information.

90 degrees
IMPORTANT!
• Under factory default settings, the camera will turn on automatically whenever the
monitor screen is tilted. See page 189 for information about configuring the camera
so it does not turn on when the monitor screen is tilted upwards.
• When returning the monitor screen to the back of the camera, take care so you do
not catch your fingers between the top or bottom of the monitor screen and the
camera.
• Do not subject the monitor screen to strong impact. Doing so can damage it.
NOTE
• Be sure to return the monitor screen to its normal position to the back of the
camera when you are not using it.
• Whenever placing the camera on a tabletop or other surface to shoot, be sure to
pull out the stand to keep it from falling over (page 21).
19
Quick Start Basics
. Returning the Monitor Screen to Its Normal Position
1. Hold the bottom of the
monitor screen and
rotate it, or press the top
of the monitor screen to
return it to its normal
position.
2. Slide the monitor screen
up as far as it will go.
. What you can do with the camera...
Shoot self-portraits
You can position the monitor screen so it
faces in the same direction as the lens,
for easy composition of self-portraits. You
can also use a stand on the back of the
camera to keep the camera upright when
placed on a tabletop or other surface.

images from various low angles.
Using the Stand
Your camera has a built-in stand. You can pull out
the stand and keep the camera stable on a tabletop
or other surface while the monitor screen is tilted
upwards 180 degrees. When using the camera on a
tabletop or other surface for landscape (horizontal)
orientation shots, you can adjust the vertical angle of
the camera somewhat by changing how far you pull
out the stand.
IMPORTANT!
• When using the camera on a tabletop or other
surface for portrait (vertical) orientation shots, pull
the stand out as much as possible so the camera
is stable. Pulling the stand out part way in this
case can cause the camera to become unstable
and fall over.
• Even when using the stand to adjust the vertical
angle of the camera while shooting with landscape (horizontal) orientation, take
care to extend the stand far enough to avoid camera instability, which can cause it
to fall over.
• Whenever using the stand, make sure that the location where you place the
camera is stable and relatively level.

Quick Start Basics
IMPORTANT!
• A battery that has not been used for a long time, or ambient temperature extremes
can cause charging to take longer than normal. If charging takes longer than about
five hours, a timer will terminate it automatically, even if the battery is not fully
charged. This is indicated by the back lamp flashing red. If the battery has not been
used for a very long time, charging may be terminated automatically and the back
lamp may start flashing red after only about 60 minutes. In either case, disconnect
the USB cable from the camera and then reconnect it to resume charging.
• Make sure that you insert the cable connector into the [USB] port until you feel it
click securely into place. Failure to insert the connector fully can result in poor
communication or malfunction.
• Note that even while the connector is fully inserted, you
still will be able to see the metal part of the connector as
shown in the illustration.
• Pressing [ON/OFF] (Power) while the USB-AC adaptor is
connected to the camera will turn on the camera with
power being supplied by the battery. Because of this,
charging will stop.
• The USB-AC adaptor will become warm during charging.
This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.
• The shape of the power plug depends on each country or geographic area.

• If the camera is on, press [ON/OFF] (Power) to turn it off before connecting it to
your computer.
IMPORTANT!
• The first time you connect the camera to your computer with the USB cable, an
error message may appear on your computer. If this happens, disconnect and then
reconnect the USB cable.
• A battery that has not been used for a long time, certain types of computers, and
connection conditions can cause charging to take more than approximately five
hours, which will trigger a timer that terminates charging automatically, even if the
battery is not fully charged. If this happens, disconnect and then reconnect the
USB cable to restart charging. To complete charging faster, use of the included
USB-AC adaptor is recommended.
• If the battery has not been used for a very long time, charging may terminate
automatically and the back lamp may start flashing red or go out after only about
60 minutes. In either case, use of the USB-AC adaptor that comes with the camera
is recommended.
• If you turn on the camera while charging over a USB connection to a computer is in
progress, the camera will establish a USB connection with the computer. Though
charging normally should continue at this time, certain types of computers or
connection environments may stop charging if supply power is low. This will be
indicated by the camera’s back lamp lighting green.
• Charging is not performed while the connected computer is in the hibernate mode.

Other Charging Precautions
• With the two charging methods described above, you can charge the camera’s
battery (NP-130A) without removing it from the camera. You also can charge the
battery using an optionally available charger unit (BC-130L). Never use any other
type of charger device. Attempting to use a different charger can result in
unexpected accident.
• This model can be charged only via from USB 2.0 specification USB port only.
• USB charging devices and power supply devices are subject to fixed standards.
Use of an inferior device or a device that is not up to standard can cause
malfunction and/or failure of your camera.
• Operation is not guaranteed in the case of a computer built or modified by you.
Even in the case of a commercially available computer, certain USB port
specifications may make it impossible to charge via the USB cable.
• A battery that is still warm immediately after normal use may not charge fully. Give
the battery time to cool before charging it.
• A battery discharges slightly even when it is not loaded in the camera. Because of
this, it is recommended that you charge the battery immediately before you need to
use it.
• Charging the camera’s battery may cause interference with TV and radio reception.
If this happens, plug the USB-AC adaptor into an outlet that is further away from
the TV or radio.
• Actual charging time depends on current battery capacity and charging conditions.
• Do not use the USB-AC adaptor with any other device.
• Never use the power cord with another device.
• Use only the USB-AC adaptor and USB cable specified in this manual for charging.
Use of any other type of devices may result in improper charging.
26
Quick Start Basics
Checking Remaining Battery Power
As battery power is consumed, a battery indicator on the monitor screen indicates
remaining power as shown below.
Remaining Power High Low
Battery Indicator ***
Indicator Color White * White * Red * Red
indicates battery power is low. Charge the battery as soon as possible.
Recording is not possible when is indicated. Charge the battery immediately.
• The level shown by the battery indicator may change when you switch between the
REC mode and PLAY mode.
• Leaving the camera for about 30 days with no power supplied while the battery is
dead will cause its date and time settings to be cleared. A message telling you to
configure time and date settings will appear the next time you turn on the camera
after restoring power. When this happens, configure date and time settings (page
191).
• See page 227 for information about battery life and number of shots.
Battery Power Conservation Tips
• Entering the “ECO Mode” enables low-power operation (page 184).
• When you do not need to use the flash, select ? (Flash Off) for the flash setting
(page 55).
• Enable the Auto Power Off and the Sleep features to protect against wasting
battery power when you forget to turn off the camera (pages 188, 188).
• Select “Off” for “Continuous AF” (page 118).
Configuring Basic Settings the First Time You Turn On the Camera
The first time you load a battery into the camera, a screen appears for configuring the
display language, date, and time settings. Failure to set the date and time correctly
will cause the wrong date and time data to be recorded with images.
IMPORTANT!
• A screen for language selection will not appear in step 2 of the procedure below if
you purchased a camera intended for the Japanese market. To change the display
language from Japanese in this case, use the procedure under “Specifying the
Display Language (Language)” (page 192). Note that a version of this manual in
the language you select may not be included with a camera intended for the
Japanese market.
• Camera models sold in certain geographic areas may not support display language
selection.

Do not remove the battery for at least 24 hours after configuring settings.
28
Quick Start Basics
Preparing a Memory Card
Though the camera has built-in memory that can be used to store images and
movies, you probably will want to purchase a commercially available memory card for
greater capacity. The camera does not come with a memory card. Images recorded
while a memory card is loaded are saved to the memory card. When no memory card
is loaded, images are saved to built-in memory.
• For information about memory card capacities, see page 222.
Supported Memory Cards
– SD Memory Card
– SDHC Memory Card
– SDXC Memory Card
Use one of the above types of memory card.
• The above are supported memory card types as of October 2013.
• This camera supports use of SD memory cards of the following types and
capacities: SD memory cards up to 2GB, SDHC memory cards from 2GB up to
32GB, SDXC memory cards from 32GB up to 2TB. Note that the ability to use any
particular card with this camera, even if it satisfies the above capacity and type
requirements, is not guaranteed.
. Memory Card Handling Precautions
Certain types of cards can slow down processing speeds, and even can make it
impossible to store High Quality movies correctly. Also, use of certain types of
memory cards slows down data transfer and increases the time it takes to record
movie data, which can result in movie frames being dropped. The Y indicator on the
monitor screen turns yellow to indicate that frames are being dropped. In order to
avoid problems such as these, use of an Ultra High Speed Type SD memory card is
recommended. Note, however that CASIO makes no guarantees about the operation
of any Ultra High Speed Type SD memory card used with this camera.
