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 a few test shots

Before shooting your final image, shoot a test shot to ensure that the camera is recording correctly.

lens

. Mirror Precautions

• The lens is approximately in the center of the mirror. Dirt in the area of the lens can cause unwanted marks in recorded images.

• Do not scratch, press, or strike the mirror with strong force. Doing so can scratch or soil the mirror.

• Damage or soiling in the center of the mirror (lens area) can interfere with proper operation of the camera.

• Affixing protective film to the center (lens area) of the mirror can affect image quality and interfere with proper operation of the camera.

• When shooting in a sunny area, the mirror will reflect sunlight. This creates the risk of eye problems. Take care to avoid allowing sunlight to shine onto the mirror.

Quick Start Basics

NOTE

• The mirror has a curved surface, so there may be some distortion in the reflected image. This does not affect recorded images.

• When shooting hold the camera still. Carefully press the shutter button and take care to avoid all movement as the shutter releases and for a few moments after it releases.

• Take care that your fingers and the strap do not cover

Other Charging Precautions

• With the two charging methods described above, you can charge the camera’s battery (NP-80) without removing it from the camera. You also can charge the battery using an optionally available charger unit (BC-80L). Never use any other type of charger device. Attempting to use a different charger can result in unexpected accident.

• 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 due to 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 charger 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.

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

92).

• See page 124 for information about battery life and number of shots.

Battery Power Conservation Tips

• Enable the Auto Power Off and the Sleep features to protect against wasting battery power when you forget to turn off the camera (pages 93, 94).

Quick Start Basics

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 93). 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.

If you make a mistake configuring display language, date, or time settings with the above procedure, refer to the following pages for information about how to correct the settings.

– Display language: Page 93 – Date and time: Page 92

NOTE

• Each country controls its local time offset and the use of summer time, and so they are subject to change.

• Removing the battery from the camera too soon after configuring time and date settings for the first time can cause the settings to be reset to their factory defaults. Do not remove the battery for at least 24 hours after configuring settings.

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 121.

Supported Memory Cards

– microSD Memory Card – microSDHC Memory Card – microSDXC Memory Card

• The above are supported memory card types as of August

2014.

• This camera supports use of microSD memory cards of the following types and capacities: microSD memory cards up to 2GB, microSDHC memory cards from 2GB up to 32GB, microSDXC 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 memory 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 breaks in the image and/or audio during playback. If this happens, » and Y flash on the monitor screen.

Quick Start Basics

Warning!

microSD/microSDHC/microSDXC memory cards present a swallowing

hazard for small children.

Keep microSD/microSDHC/microSDXC memory cards out of the reach of

small children. Should a memory card ever be swallowed accidentally, consult a physician immediately.

To load a memory card

1. Press [p] (Power) to turn off the

camera and then open the [CARD USB] cover.

2. Load a memory card.

Positioning the memory card so its front is facing downwards (towards the monitor screen side of the camera), slide it into the card slot all the way in until you hear it click securely into place.

3. Close the [CARD USB] cover.

Front Back

Quick Start Basics

IMPORTANT!

• Never insert anything besides a supported memory card (page 23) into the memory card slot.

• Should water or any foreign object ever get into the card slot, immediately turn off the camera, remove the battery, and contact your retailer or nearest CASIO authorized service center.

To replace the memory card

Press the memory card and then release it. This will cause it to pop out of the memory card slot slightly. Pull the card out the rest of the way and then insert another one.

• Never remove a card from the camera while the back lamp is flashing green. Doing so can cause the image save operation to fail and even damage the memory card.

To format (initialize) a new memory card

Format a memory card on the camera before using it for the first time.

IMPORTANT!

• Formatting a memory card that already has snapshots or other files on it, will delete its contents. Normally you do not need to format a memory card again. However, if storing to a card has slowed down or if you notice any other abnormality, re-format the card.

• Be sure to use the camera to format a memory card. Formatting a card on a computer will result in a non-SD standard format, which can greatly slow down processing time and cause compatibility, performance, and other problems.

• Some BEST SHOT scenes cannot be used while recording a movie.

• Some scenes like “Night Scene Portrait” results in a slow shutter speed setting. Since a slow shutter speed increases the chance of digital noise in the image, the camera automatically performs a digital noise reduction process when either of these scenes is selected. This means that it will take a bit longer for the image to be saved which is indicated by the back lamp flashing green. Do not perform any key operation during that time.

• BEST SHOT scene images were not shot using this camera.

• Images shot using a BEST SHOT scene may not produce the results you expected due to shooting conditions and other factors.

• You can modify the camera settings that are made after you select a BEST SHOT scene. Note, however, that the BEST SHOT settings revert to their defaults when you select another BEST SHOT scene or turn off the camera.

Recording Movie Images

To record a movie

1. Configure the quality setting for the movie (page 56).

The length of the movie you can record will depend on the quality setting you select.

2. In the REC mode, point the

camera at the subject and then press [0] (Movie).

This will start recording and display Y on the monitor screen. Movie recording includes monaural audio.

(page 121)

3. Press [0] (Movie) again to stop

recording.

• Each movie can be up to 29 minutes long. Movie recording stops automatically after 29 minutes of recording. Movie recording also will stop automatically if memory becomes full before you stop movie recording by pressing [0] (Movie).

Shooting with BEST SHOT

With BEST SHOT (page 38), you can select the sample scene that matches the type of movie you are trying to shoot and the camera will change its setup accordingly, for beautiful movies every time.

Image stabilization during movie recording

Image stabilization is always enabled during movie recording. Note, however, that image stabilization does not prevent image blur due to subject movement during movie recording. Also, image stabilization results in a narrower angle of view during movie recording.

Recording time

Recording Movie Images

NOTE

• Spending a long time using movie recording will cause the camera to become slightly warm to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

• The camera also records audio. Note the following points

Microphone

when shooting a movie. – Take care that the microphone is not blocked by your

fingers, etc.

– Good recording results are not possible when the

camera is too far away from what you are trying to record.

• Shooting a very bright subject can cause a vertical band or a pink cast on the monitor screen image. This does not indicate malfunction.

• Using the camera’s built-in memory or certain types of memory 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 breaks in the image and/or audio during playback. If this happens, the » and Y flash on the monitor screen.

• The effects of camera movement in an image become more pronounced when you shoot close up or with a large zoom factor.

• You can use the [4] and [6] keys during movie recording to adjust the EV shift setting.

• The initial factory default image size setting is “14M”.

• You should regard the print paper sizes suggested here as guidelines only (200 dpi print resolution).

. Pixels and image size

A digital camera image is a collection of small dots called “pixels”. The more pixels there are in an image, the more detail there will be. However, you generally can do with fewer pixels when printing an image (L size) through a print service, attaching an image to e-mail, when viewing the image on a computer, etc. The size of an image indicates how many pixels it contains, and is expressed as

horizontal pixels

vertical pixels.

Pixel

Example:

Image size Pixels

14M 4320

3M 2048

3240 (Approximately 14 million pixels)

1536 (Approximately 3 million pixels)

• Note that larger images have more pixels, so they take up more memory space.

• For information about image size and number of images that can be stored, see page 121.

• For information about movie image size, see page 56.

• For information about resizing existing snapshots, see page 68.

Specifying Movie Image Quality (» Quality (Movie))

Procedure

Enter the REC Mode * [MENU] * “Quality” Tab * » Quality (Movie)

Movie image quality is a standard that determines the detail, smoothness, and clarity of a movie during playback. Shooting with the high-definition movie (FHD) setting will result in better image quality, but it also shortens the amount of time you can shoot.

Image Quality (Pixels)

FHD 1920

STD 640

• The 16:9 aspect ratio is available when “FHD” is selected as the image quality.

• Memory capacity (Movie recording time you can shoot) will be affected by the quality settings you configure (page 121).

Correcting Image Brightness (EV Shift)

Procedure

Enter the REC Mode * [MENU] * “Quality” Tab * EV Shift

You can manually adjust an image’s exposure value (EV value) before shooting it.

• Exposure Compensation Range: –2.0 EV to +2.0 EV

• Unit: 1/3 EV

1. Use [8] and [2] to adjust the exposure compensation value.

[8] : Increases the EV value. A higher EV

value is best for light-colored subjects and backlit subjects.

[2] : Decreases the EV value. A lower EV

value is best for dark-color subjects and for shooting outdoors on a clear day.

To cancel exposure compensation, change the EV value to 0.0.

2. Press [SET].

This applies the exposure compensation value. The exposure compensation value you set remains in effect until you change it or turn off the camera (which causes it to revert to “0.0”).
