Using a Memory Card

Loading a Memory Card into the Camera
When a memory card is loaded, the camera stores images you shoot on the card.
NOT
Though the camera has built-in memory, using a memory
card provides additional capacity you can use to store more images, high-quality and large-size images, and longer movies.
The camera will store images in its built-in memory if there
is no memory card loaded. If you prefer to use built-in memory, skip this procedure and go to “Shooting a Snapshot” on page 15.
For information about memory card capacity, see page
287.
1. Open the battery cover.
While pressing lightly on the cover, slide it in the direction indicated by the arrow to open.
2. Load a memory card into the camera.

Formatting a Memory Card
Before you can use a memory card with your camera, you must format it.
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 perform the following procedure on the camera
to format the memory card.
1. Press [ON/OFF] to turn on the camera.
2. Press [MENU].
3. Use [W] and [X] to select the “Set Up” tab.
4. Use [T] to select “Format” and then press [X].
5. Press [S] to select “Format” and then press
[SET].
To cancel formatting, select “Cancel” and then press [SET].
Wait until the “Busy... Please wait...” message disappears from the monitor screen before doing anything else.

Snapshot Image Size and Image Quality
Your camera lets you select from among various image size and quality settings. Note that image size and quality settings affect how many images can be stored in memory.
You can change the image size and quality settings as required to shoot a smaller or lower-resolution image for attachment to an e-mail message, for publishing on a website, etc. You can also select an image size that suits the size of paper you plan to use for printing your images.
For details, see pages 66, 68, and 287.
How do I half-press the shutter button?
The shutter button is designed to stop about half way down when you press it lightly. Stopping at this point is called a
“half-press”. When you half-press the shutter button, the camera automatically adjusts exposure and focuses on the subject it is currently pointed at. Mastering how much pressure is required for a half-press and a full-press of the shutter button is an important technique for good-looking images.
Half-press
Press lightly until the button stops.

Full-press

QUICK START BASICS
Fully pressing the shutter button without
waiting for Auto Focus
Fully pressing the shutter button without waiting for Auto Focus to operate will record using Quick Shutter (page 128). Quick Shutter lets you capture exactly the moment you want.
With Quick Shutter, the camera uses high-speed Auto Focus, which means you can capture quick moving action more easily. Note, however, that some images may be out of focus when Quick Shutter is used.
Whenever possible, take a little extra time to half-press the shutter button in order to ensure proper focus.

Movie Image Quality
Your camera lets you select from among six image quality settings (UHQ, UHQ Wide, HQ, HQ Wide, Normal, LP) for movies. For best camera performance, use the “HQ” (High Quality) or “HQ Wide” setting for movie recording. Movie quality is a standard that determines the detail, smoothness, and clarity of the image during playback. Reducing image quality let’s you shoot longer, so you can switch to “Normal” or “LP” conserve remaining memory capacity if you start to run low.

LCD Panel
The liquid crystal panel of the monitor screen uses high­precision technology that provides a pixel yield in excess of
99.99%. This means that some 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.
