Autofocus

Although the camera boasts a high-precision autofocus system, it may be unable to focus on the subjects listed below. If the camera is unable to focus using autofocus, use focus lock (pg. 18) to focus on another subject at the same distance and then recompose the photograph.

• Very shiny subjects such as mirrors or car bodies.

• Fast-moving subjects.

• Subjects photographed through a window or other re ective object.

• Dark subjects and subjects that absorb rather than re ect light, such as hair or fur.

• Insubstantial subjects, such as smoke or  ame.

• Subjects that show little contrast with the background (for example, subjects in clothing that is the same color as the background).

• Subjects positioned in front of or behind a high-contrast object that is also in the focus frame (for example, a subject photographed against a backdrop of highly contrasting elements).

Description

Use the  ash when lighting is poor, for example when shooting at night or indoors under low light.

To choose a  ash mode, press the selector right (T). The  ash mode changes each time the selector is pressed; in modes other than AUTO, the current mode is indicated by an icon in the monitor. Choose from the following options (some options are not available in all shooting modes; see another sheet):

As above, except that red-eye reduction is used to minimize “red-eye ” caused by light from the  ash re ecting from the subject’s retinas as shown in the illustration at right.

The  ash  res whenever a picture is taken. Use for backlit subjects or for natural coloration when shooting in bright light. The  ash does not  re even when the subject is poorly lit. b will appear in the monitor at slow shutter speeds to warn that pictures may be blurred. Use of a tripod is recommended.

Capture both the main subject and the background when shooting at night (note that brightly lit scenes may be overexposed). W combines slow sync with red-eye reduction. If I is selected for A SHOOTING MODE, shutter speed may be slow. Use a tripod.

Description

Red-Eye Removal

When V REMOVAL ON is selected for Intelligent Face Detection (pg. 15), redeye removal (V) is available in C (V), forced  ash (U), and slow sync (W) modes. Red-eye removal minimizes “red- eye” caused when light from the  ash is re ected from the subject’s retinas as shown in the illustration at right.

Page 30

B Using the Self-Timer

The self-timer lamp on the front of the camera will blink immediately before the picture is taken. If the two-second timer is selected, the self-timer lamp will blink as the timer counts down.

Intelligent Face Detection

Because it ensures that the faces of portrait subjects will be in focus, Intelligent Face Detection (pg. 15) is recommended when using the self-timer for group portraits or self-portraits. To use the self-timer with Intelligent Face Detection, set the timer as described in Step 1 and then press the shutter button all the way down to start the timer. The camera will detect faces while the timer is counting down and adjust focus and exposure immediately before the shutter is released. Be careful not to move until the picture has been recorded.

Caring for the Camera

Storage and Use

■■ Water and Sand

■■ Condensation

Cleaning

Travelling

To ensure continued enjoyment of the product, observe the following precautions.

Storage and Use

If the camera will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries and memory card. Do not store or use the camera in locations that are:

• exposed to rain, steam, or smoke

• very humid or extremely dusty

• exposed to direct sunlight or very high temperatures, such as in a closed vehicle on a sunny day

• extremely cold

• subject to strong vibration

• exposed to strong magnetic  elds, such as near a broadcasting antenna, power line, radar emitter, motor, transformer, or magnet

• in contact with volatile chemicals such as pesticides

• next to rubber or vinyl products

Water and Sand

Exposure to water and sand can also damage the camera and its internal circuitry and mechanisms. When using the camera at the beach or seaside, avoid exposing the camera to water or sand. Do not place the camera on a wet surface.

Condensation

Sudden increases in temperature, such as occur when entering a heated building on a cold day, can cause condensation inside the camera. If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait an hour before turning it on again. If condensation forms on the memory card, remove the card and wait for the condensation to dissipate.

Cleaning

Use a blower to remove dust from the lens and monitor, then gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Any remaining stains can be removed by wiping gently with a piece of FUJIFILM lens-cleaning paper to which a small amount of lens-cleaning  uid has been applied. Care should be taken to avoid scratching the lens or monitor. The camera body can be cleaned with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.

Tra vel li ng

Keep the camera in your carry-on baggage. Checked baggage may su er violent shocks that could damage the camera.

Glossary

Digital zoom: Unlike optical zoom, digital zoom does not increase the amount of visible detail. Instead, details visible using optical zoom are simply enlarged, producing a slightly “grainy” image.

Discharge: The capacity of rechargeable Ni-MH batteries will drop if they are repeatedly charged without  rst being fully discharged. Full capacity can be restored by repeatedly discharging the batteries using the o DIS- CHARGE option in the camera setup menu and recharging them using a battery charger (sold separately).

DPOF (Digital Print Order Format): A standard that allows pictures to be printed from “print orders” stored in internal memory or on a memory card. The information in the order includes the pictures to be printed and the number of copies of each picture.

EV (Exposure Value): The exposure value is determined by the sensitivity of the image sensor and the amount of light that enters the camera while the image sensor is exposed. Each time the amount of light doubles, EV increases by one; each time the amount of light is halved, EV decreases by one. The amount of light entering the camera can be controlled by adjusting aperture and shutter speed.

Exif Print: A standard that allows information stored with pictures to be used for optimal color reproduction during printing.

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group): A compressed  le format for color images. The higher the compression rate, the greater the loss of information and more noticeable drop in quality when the picture is displayed.

Motion JPEG: An AVI (Audio Video Interleave) format that stores images and sound in a single  le, with the images recorded in JPEG format. Motion JPEG  les can be played in QuickTime 3.0 or later.

Smear: A phenomenon speci c to CCDs which causes white streaks to appear when very bright light sources, such

Appendix

as the sun or re ected sunlight, appear in the frame.

White balance: The human brain automatically adapts to changes in the color of light, with the result that objects that appear white under one light source still appear white when the color of the light source changes. Digital cameras can mimic this adjustment by processing images according to the color of the light source. This process is known as “white balance.”
