Using Batteries

Use 4 AA-size alkaline, Ni-MH or Ni-Cd batteries. Do not use different types of batteries together.

■

Number of available shots (with fully charged batteries)

The table below provides a guide to the number of shots that can be taken at normal temperature with 50% flash use. Note that these figures may vary depending on the camera’s ambient temperature and the level of battery charge.

◆ Important Battery Information◆

● Because different brands of alkaline batteries have

different capacities, the life of some batteries (the length of time for which they can be used) may be considerably shorter than that of the alkaline batteries supplied with this camera.

● It is a characteristic of alkaline batteries in particular that

the life of the battery is shorter at low temperatures (+10°C or below).

● Do not use lithium or manganese batteries in your

FinePix2400 ZOOM because the heat generated by the batteries could damage the camera.

Soiling such as fingerprints on the battery terminals can significantly reduce the number of available shots (➡P.70).

●

Do not use new and used batteries together.

●

Always switch the camera off when replacing the batteries. If the camera is left on, the camera settings may revert to the factory default settings.

●

Install replacement batteries within 5 minutes, since the camera settings are only retained for 5 minutes once the batteries are removed.

●

The Quick Battery Charger (sold separately) is needed to recharge AA-size Ni-MH or Ni-Cd batteries (➡P.66).

●

Do not use excessive force on the battery cover.

●

Take care not to drop the batteries when you open or close the battery cover.

➀

Install the batteries with the correct polarity as shown.

➁

Close the battery cover as indicated by the arrow.

To shoot or play back images without depleting the battery charge, use the special AC Power Adapter AC-5V/AC-5VH (sold separately). Check that the camera is switched off and then plug the AC power adapter connector into the “DC IN 5V socket” on the camera. Then plug the AC power adapter into the power outlet.

●

You cannot charge the batteries by connecting the AC power adapter.

●

The shapes of the plug and socket-outlet depends on the country of use.

●

Using AC power adapters other than the AC-5V/AC5VH could damage the camera.

●

See P.71 for more information on the AC power adapter.

E TAKING PICTURES

Basic Photography

●

➀

●

➁

To take the picture, press the shutter button down fully without lifting your finger off it. The camera beeps and takes the picture, and the data is then recorded.

●

The viewfinder lamp flashes orange while the flash is charging.

●

Because the amount of image data recorded is not fixed and varies depending on the subject (level of image detail, etc.), the number of available shots may not decrease after the image is recorded, or may decrease by 2.

●

See P.74 for information on the warning displays.

●

The viewfinder lamp glows orange while the image is being recorded and no pictures can be taken. Do not switch the camera off or open the SmartMedia slot cover during data recording as this can cause the image data to be corrupted or lost.

Press the shutter button down halfway. Image focusing is complete when “/” appears on the LCD monitor or the viewfinder lamp glows green.

●

The camera will not focus at distances of 80 cm (2.6ft.) or less even when “

/” is displayed. In

this situation, take the picture in “

i ” Macro

Photography (➡P.37).

●

If it is too dark for the camera to focus, move at least

1.5 m (4.9ft.) away from your subject before taking the picture.

Using the viewfinder or LCD monitor, frame your shot so that the subject fills the entire AF (Auto Focus) frame.

●

If the subject is not in the AF frame, use AF/AE lock to take the picture (➡P.26).

●

In dimly lit scenes where the subject is difficult to see using the LCD monitor, use the viewfinder to take the picture.

●

Shooting using LCD monitor is recommended when you want to do accurate adjustment of the range to be shot.

●

When the shot is taken, the date displayed on the LCD monitor disappears for roughly 3 seconds. The date cannot be displayed continuously.

When you are using the viewfinder to take a picture at a distance of 0.8 to 1.5 m (2.6 to 4.9ft.), only the shaded area in the figure is photographed.

SETTING THE FILE SIZE AND QUALITY

PHOTOGRAPHY MENU

You can select any combination of 3 file sizes (numbers of pixels) and 3 quality (compression ratio) settings. Select the combination that best suits your aims.

➀

Use the “ab ” button to change the file size setting, and then use the “d” or “c” button to change the quality setting.

➁

Press “MENU/OK” to confirm the settings.

●

There are 6 combinations of file size and quality settings in total (➡ P.25).

To get high-quality prints

Use the largest available file size (1600 ✕ 1200) and a low compression ratio (FINE or NORMAL). However, because this increases the amount of data in each frame, the number of remaining shots decreases.

For images to be used on the Internet

These images are intended to be viewed on a personal computer screen, so you should use a small file size (640 ✕ 480). Because this reduces the amount of data used for each frame, the number of remaining shots increases.

Quality (compression ratio)

Choose “ FINE” for better image quality or “BASIC” to increase the number of available

shots. In most cases, the “NORMAL” setting provides more than adequate image quality.

p Suppressed Flash

In this mode, the flash never fires. Use this mode when you are taking pictures in indoor lighting at distances too great for the flash to have any effect, such as theater performances or indoor sporting events. When you use Suppressed Flash, the Auto White Balance function (➡P.68) operates so that natural colors are captured along with the ambience of the available light.

●

If you want to take a picture in low-light conditions with the flash mode set to Suppressed Flash, you should use a tripod to prevent camera shake.

●

See P.24 and P.75 for information on the camera shake warning.

This mode allows you to use the flash with a slow shutter speed. This mode allows you to take beautiful pictures that show your subject and still capture the background.

m Night Scenes (Slow Synchro

)

●

Because slow shutter speeds are used, you should use a tripod to prevent camera shake.

f USING THE FLASH

f Forced Flash

Use this flash mode to photograph backlit scenes, such as a subject against a window or in the shade of a tree, or to obtain the correct colors when you are shooting under lighting such as fluorescent tubes. In this mode, the flash fires in bright as well as dark conditions.

o Red-Eye Reduction

Use this mode to ensure that the subject's eyes appear natural when photographing people in lowlight conditions. The flash fires a pre-flash just before the picture is taken and then fires again to take the actual picture.

◆

Red-Eye Effect

◆

When you use the flash to photograph people in low-light conditions, their eyes sometimes appear red in the picture. This is caused by the light of the flash reflecting off the inside of the eye. Use Red-Eye Reduction flash mode to effectively minimize the likelihood of the red-eye effect. Take the following measures also to make Red-Eye Reduction mode more effective:

●

Get the subjects to look at the camera.

●

Get as close as possible to the subjects.

Notes on Using Your Camera Correctly

■ Places to Avoid

Do not store or use the camera in the following types of locations:

● Very humid, dirty or dusty places

● In direct sunlight or in places subject to extreme

temperature rises, such as in a closed car in summer. Extremely cold places

● Places subject to strong vibrations

● Places affected by smoke or steam

● Places subject to strong magnetic fields (such as places

near motors, transformers or magnets)

● For long periods in contact with chemicals such as

pesticides or next to rubber or vinyl products

■ Do not expose the camera to sand.

The FinePix2400 ZOOM is particularly and adversely affected by sand. In sandy locations such as beaches or deserts, or in locations where there is wind borne sand, ensure that the camera is not exposed to sand. This can cause faults that may be irreparable.

■ Notes on Condensation

If the camera is carried suddenly from a cold location into a warm place, water droplets (condensation) may form on the inside of the camera or on the lens. When the viewfinder lamp is lit orange or flashing orange, this indicates that data access is in progress. Condensation

may also form on the SmartMedia card. In this event, remove the SmartMedia and wait a short time before using it again.

■ When the Camera is Unused for Long Periods

If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period, of time remove the batteries and the SmartMedia card before storing the camera.

■ Cleaning Your Camera

● Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens and

LCD surface and then wipe lightly with a soft, dry cloth. If any soiling remains, apply a small amount of lens cleaning liquid to a piece of lens cleaning paper and wipe gently.

● Do not scratch hard objects against the lens, LCD

monitor screen or viewfinder as these surfaces are easily damaged.

● Clean the body of the camera with a soft dry cloth. Do not

use volatile substances such as thinners, benzine or insecticide, as these may react with camera body and cause deformation or remove the coating.

■ When travelling overseas

Do not place your camera in the check-in baggage. Baggage handling at airports may subject baggage to violent shocks, and the camera may be damaged internally even when no external damage is visible.

eBe sure to read this information in conjunction with before you use this product “Safety Notes”

(➡P.80) to ensure that you use your camera correctly.

Explanation of Terms

AF/AE Lock: On this camera, pressing the shutter button down halfway locks the exposure settings (AF/AE

lock). If you want to change the composition of your shot after you set the exposure, you can get excellent results by using AF/AE lock before you compose your shot and take the picture.

Auto Power Off Function:

If the camera is not used in any way for two minutes or more, the Auto Power Off function switches the camera off. This is to prevent battery depletion and to avoid wasting power when the camera is connected to the AC power adapter. Auto Power Off does not operate when the Auto Power Off function is disabled or a USB connection is used.

DPOF: Digital Print Order Format

DPOF is a format used for recording information on a storage media (image memory card, etc.) that allows you to specify which of the frames shot using a digital camera are printed and how many prints are made of each image.

EV: A number that denotes exposure. The EV is determined by the brightness of the subject and

sensitivity (speed) of the film or CCD. The number is larger for bright subjects and smaller for dark subjects. As the brightness of the subject changes, a digital camera maintains the amount of light hitting the CCD at a constant level by adjusting the aperture and shutter speed. When the amount of light striking the CCD doubles, the EV increases by 1. Likewise, when the light is halved, the EV decreases by 1.

JPEG: Joint Photographics Experts Group

A file format used for compressing and saving color images. The compression ratio can be selected, but the higher the compression ratio, the poorer the quality of the expanded image.

White Balance: Regardless of the type of lighting, the human eye adapts so that a white object still looks white.

On the other hand, devices such as digital still cameras register a white subject as white by first adjusting their internal color balance to match the color of the ambient light around the subject. This adjustment process is referred to as matching the white balance. A function that automatically matches the white balance is called an auto white balance function.

Ni-MH or Ni-Cd batteries. Charge the batteries as described in the instructions provided with the battery charger.

● Do not use the battery charger to charge batteries other

than those specified for use with the charger.

● Note that the batteries may feel warm immediately after

being charged.

● Ni-MH and Ni-Cd batteries are not charged at shipment.

Be sure to charge the batteries before using them.

● The camera mechanism is such that it draws a minute

amount of current even when the camera is switched off. Take particular care not to leave Ni-MH or Ni-Cd

Always use the AC-5V/AC-5VH AC Power Adapter AC5V/AC-5VH (sold separately) with the FinePix2400 ZOOM Digital Camera. The use of an AC power adapter other than the AC-5V/AC5VH could result in damage to your camera.

● Ensure that you do not touch the contact areas on the

AC power adapter against any other metal object as this could cause a short circuit.

● Do not plug the AC power adapter into the DIGITAL

socket as this could damage your camera.

● Do not plug in the AC power adapter while you are

operating the camera using batteries. Switch the camera off first.

● Do not load the batteries while you are operating the

camera using the AC power adapter. Switch the camera off first.

● If you disconnect the AC power adapter when there are

no batteries in the camera, the date may be cleared. If this occurs, reset the date.

Notes on Using the AC Power Adapter

batteries in the camera for a long period of time as they can become excessively discharged and no longer be usable even when charged.

● Ni-MH and Ni-Cd batteries self-discharge even when not

used. Always charge Ni-MH and Ni-Cd batteries before using them. If the time for which a battery provides power shortens markedly when it has been correctly charged, this indicates that the battery has reached the end of its effective life and should be replaced.

● AA-size alkaline, Ni-MH (nickel metal hydride), or Ni-Cd

batteries can be used with this camera. Do not use AA-size manganese or lithium batteries in your FinePix2400 ZOOM because the heat generated by the batteries could damage the camera or cause malfunctions.

● Because different brands of alkaline batteries have

different capacities, the life of some batteries (the length of time for which they can be used) may be considerably shorter than that of the alkaline batteries supplied with this camera.

discolored or exhibit any other obvious abnormality.

● Do not store batteries in very warm or moist locations.

● Keep the batteries out of the reach of babies and small

children.

●

When loading the batteries in the camera, ensure that the battery polarity (

and 4) is as indicated on the camera.

● Do not use new batteries together with used batteries. In

the case of rechargeable batteries, do not use charged and discharged batteries together. Do not use batteries of different types or brands together.

● If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period of

time, remove the batteries from the camera. (Note that if the camera is left with the batteries removed, the time and date settings are cleared.)

● The batteries may feel warm immediately after being

used. Before removing the batteries, switch the camera off and wait until the batteries cool down.

●

When replacing the batteries, always fit 4 new batteries. Here, 'new batteries' refers to either recently purchased unused alkaline batteries, or Ni-Cd or Ni-MH (nickel metal hydride) batteries that have recently been fully recharged together.

●

Battery performance deteriorates at low temperatures (+10°C or below) and the time for which they can be used shortens. This is particularly true of alkaline batteries. In cold conditions, put the batteries in your pocket or a similar place to warm them before loading them into the camera. If you use a body warmer to warm the batteries, ensure that they are not in direct contact with the warmer.
