1. BASIC PROCEDURE

LOAD THE BA TTERY

Use one 3V CR123A lithium battery.
A new lithium battery will provide power for taking about 300 pictures, including
150 with flash (as tested according to Fujifilm’s battery testing procedure).
1. Open the battery compartment cover
Push the Cover’s grained part up (toward the camera back) and open the Cover toward you.
2. Insert the battery
Insert the battery in the Battery Compartment, minus - end first, then press in the plus + end and close the Battery Compartment Cover.

3. Check the loaded battery
Push the Lens Cover Button do wnward. If the Lens Co ver opens and the lens barrel moves out into shooting position (wideangle), the battery is loaded correctly.
If the Flash Sign ( ) in the LCD blinks f or 12 seconds or more after taking a flash picture, the battery is spent. Change the battery with a new one as soon as possible.
If you are going on a trip or are planning to tak e lots of pictures, take a spare battery along with you just in case you might need it. This is especially true if you are tr a velling abroad because in some countries you may not be able to obtain the type of battery you want.

LOAD THE FILM

1. Open the camera back
To open, hold the camera bottom side up and push the Camera Back Lock down­ward.
2. Insert the film
Just push the film gently into the Film Chamber.
Do not open the Camera Back all the w a y. It is normally set to open about 15° or just enough to drop the film in smoothly and surely.
Be sure to use 35 mm DX roll film (film marked DX on the box and cartridge).
Always use your film before the expiration date printed on the film box.

3. Check the film tip position
Make sure the film tip falls within the Film Tip Mark (green lines in the f ar end of the film track).
4. Close the camera back
As soon as you close the Camera Back, the Exposure Counter will run though rapidly and the film will prewind itself up to the v ery end. (If the film is a 24-exposure roll, it will prewind itself in about 20 seconds and the Exposure Counter will stop at the number “24”).
If the film leader (the length of film protruding from the cartridge) is too short or too long, how­ev er, y ou’ll have to adjust it bef ore dropping the cartridge into the camera. To adjust, pull the film out or wind it in so that the film tip will fall within the camera’s Film Tip Mark (green lines).
The Film Confirmation Window will show the type and speed of the loaded film and the n umber of exposures it contains.

TAKING PICTURES
