Loading the Batteries

Batteries are required to operate the digital camera. At
first, load the batteries in the camera.

Compatible batteries

AA-size alkaline batteries (4) or AA-size Ni-MH
rechargeable batteries (4) (sold separately)

CAUTION

• Never use the following types of
batteries, as they could cause
serious problems such as battery
fluid leakage or overheating:

1. Batteries with split or peeling

outer casings

2. Combinations of different

types of batteries or new and
used batteries together

• Do not use manganese, Ni-Cd or
lithium batteries.

• Use the same brand and grade
AA-size alkaline batteries as
those supplied with the camera.

Outer casing

1 Slide the lock release catch to open the

battery cover.

CHECK

Check that the camera is turned off before opening the
battery cover.

CAUTION

• Do not open the battery cover while the camera is on.
This could damage the Memory Card or ruin the image
files on the Memory Card.

• Do not apply force to the battery cover.

13

L310GB.book Page 14 Thursday, January 17, 2008 9:44 PM

Loading the Batteries

2 Load the batteries correctly as indicated by

the polarity icons.

CAUTION

Battery polarity is also indicated on the camera.
Match the polarity icons (+ and ,) of the batteries to
those on the inside of the battery cover.

3 Press on the battery cover to push the

L310GB.book Page 15 Thursday, January 17, 2008 9:44 PM

Notes on batteries

• Soil, such as fingermarks on the poles of the batteries,
can shorten time for which the batteries can be used.

• The time for which AA-size alkaline batteries (referred
to hereafter simply as alkaline batteries) can be used
varies depending on the brand. Some brands of alkaline
batteries may stop providing power more quickly than
those supplied with the camera. Note also that due to
their nature, the time for which alkaline batteries can be
used decreases in cold conditions (0°C to +10°C/+32°F
to +50°F). For this reason, it is better to use AA-size Ni­MH batteries.

• Due to the nature of the battery, the battery level
warning ( , V) may appear early when the
camera is used in cold locations. Try warming the
batteries in your pocket or a similar location before use.

• Depending on the battery type and the level of charge
in the batteries, the camera may run out of power
without first displaying a battery level warning. This is
particularly likely to happen when batteries that have
run out of charge once are re-used.

• Depending on the camera mode, the transition from

to V may occur more quickly.

• Use Fujifilm Battery charger (sold separately) to charge
AA-size Ni-MH batteries.

• When first purchased or if left unused for a long period,
the amount of time which AA-size Ni-MH batteries can
be used may be short.

• Battery power consumption varies greatly depending
on use. When you change to Playback mode from
Shooting mode, may not occur, however, V
may suddenly blink red and the camera may stop
operation.

• See “Notes and Cautions” (Basic Manual) for more
information.

Holding the camera correctly

Brace your elbows against your sides and hold the
camera with both hands.
Using the viewfinder (EVF) allows for a steady arm
position, preventing picture blur.

Do not cover the lens or
flash with your fingers,
and be careful not to
touch the autofocus ring.

CAUTION

• Moving the camera while shooting gives a blurred
picture (camera shake). Hold the camera steadily with
both hands.

• If the lens or flash is obscured by your fingers or the
strap, or if the autofocus ring is touched when shooting,
subjects may be out of focus or the brightness
(exposure) of your shot may be incorrect.

• When the autofocus ring is held during operation, a
warning message [ZOOM ERROR] is displayed. Then
the lens will automatically refocus.

Camera dimensions (W/H/D) 111.3 mm × 78.2 mm × 79.3 mm/4.4 in. × 3.1 in. × 3.1 in. (not including accessories and attachments)

Camera mass (weight) Approx. 405 g/14.3 oz. (not including accessories, batteries and Memory Card)

Weight for photography Approx. 500 g/17.6 oz. (including batteries and Memory Card)

Operating Conditions

• 4× AA-size alkaline batteries

• 4× AA-size Ni-MH (Nickel-Metal Hydride) batteries (sold separately)

• AC Power Adapter AC-5VX (sold separately)

Battery Type With LCD monitor ON With viewfinder (EVF) ON

Alkaline batteries Approx. 350 frames Approx. 350 frames

Ni-MH batteries 2500 mAh Approx. 500 frames Approx. 500 frames

According to the CIPA (Camera & Imaging Products Association) standard procedure for measuring
digital still camera battery consumption (extract):
When using alkaline batteries, use the batteries supplied with the camera. You can use Ni-MH batteries
also. The storage media should be xD-Picture Card.
Pictures should be taken at a temperature of +23°C (+73°F), with the LCD monitor turned on, the optical
zoom moved from full wide-angle to full telephoto (or vice-versa) and back again to its original position
every 30 seconds, the flash used at full power every second shot and the camera turned off and then on
again once every 10 shots.

• Note: Because the number of available shots varies depending on the capacity of alkaline batteries or

the level of charge in Ni-MH batteries, the figures shown here for the number of available shots
using batteries are not guaranteed.
The number of available shots will also decline at low temperatures.

Temperature: 0°C to +40°C (+32°F to +104°F)
80% humidity or less (no condensation)

If you shoot using the xD-Picture Cards with model numbers containing “M” such as DPC-M1GB, movie recording time may be
reduced if you repeatedly record and erase (frame erase) image files. In such a case, erase all frames or format the xD-Picture Card
before use. Back up important frames (files) onto your PC or another media.

These specifications are subject to change without notice. FUJIFILM shall not be held liable for damages resulting from

*

errors in this Basic Manual.
The LCD monitor on your digital camera is manufactured using advanced high-precision technology. Even so, small bright

*

points and anomalous colors (particularly around text) may appear on the monitor. These are normal display characteristics
and do not indicate a fault with the monitor. This phenomenon will not appear on the recorded image.
The operation error may be caused in a digital camera by the strong radio interference (i. e. electric fields, static electricity,

*

line noise, etc.).
Due to the nature of the lens, the edges of images may appear distorted. This is normal.

in the soft case.

descriptions.

Z Battery Features

• The battery gradually loses its charge even when not used. Use
a battery that has been charged recently (in the last day or two)
to take pictures.

• To maximize the life of the battery, turn the camera off as quickly
as possible when it is not being used.

• The number of available frames will be lower in cold locations or
at low temperatures. Take along a spare fully charged battery.
You can also increase the amount of power produced by putting
the battery in your pocket or another warm place to heat it and
then loading it into the camera just before you take a picture.
If you are using a heating pad, take care not to place the battery
directly against the pad. The camera may not operate if you use
a depleted battery in cold conditions.

Z Charging the Battery

• You can charge the battery using the battery charger (included).

• The battery can be charged at ambient temperatures

between 0°C and +40°C (+32°F and +104°F). Refer to the
OWNER’S MANUAL for the time of charging battery.

• You should charge the battery at an ambient temperature

between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and +95°F). If you
charge the battery at a temperature outside this range,
charging takes longer because the performance of the
battery is impaired.

• You cannot charge the battery at temperatures of 0°C

(+32°F) or below.

• The Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery does not need to be fully
discharged or exhausted flat before being charged.

• The battery may feel warm after it has been charged or
immediately after being used. This is perfectly normal.

• Do not recharge a fully charged battery.

58

L310GB.book Page 59 Thursday, January 17, 2008 9:44 PM

Z Battery Life

At normal temperatures, the battery can be used at least 300 times.
If the time for which the battery provides power shortens markedly,
this indicates that the battery has reached the end of its effective life
and should be replaced.

Z Notes on storage

• If a battery is stored for long periods while charged, the
performance of the battery can be impaired. If the battery will not
be used for some time, run the battery out before storing it.

• If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period of time,
remove the battery from the camera.

• Store the battery in a cool place.

• The battery should be stored in a dry location with an

ambient temperature between +15°C and +25°C (+59°F
and +77°F).

• Do not leave the battery in hot or extremely cold places.

Z Handling the Battery

Cautions for Your Safety:

• Do not carry or store battery with metal objects such as necklaces
or hairpins.

• Do not heat the battery or throw it into a fire.

• Do not attempt to take apart or change the battery.

• Do not recharge the battery with chargers other those specified.

• Dispose of used battery promptly.

• Do not drop the battery or otherwise subject it to strong impacts.

• Do not expose the battery to water.

• Always keep the battery terminals clean.

• Do not store batteries in hot places. Also, if you use the battery
for a long period, the camera body and the battery itself will
become warm. This is normal. Use the AC power adapter if you
are taking pictures or viewing images for a long period of time.

Camera uses AA-size alkaline or Ni-MH (nickelmetal

2

hydride) rechargeable batteries

Z Applicable Batteries

• In the camera, use AA-size alkaline or Ni-MH (nickelmetal
hydride) rechargeable batteries.
Do not use AA-size manganese, nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) or
lithium batteries in your camera because the heat created by the
batteries could damage the camera or cause it not to work. (The
UL recognized lithium battery can be used.)

• The life of alkaline batteries varies between brands. The life of
batteries you purchase may be shorter than those provided with
the camera.

Z Cautions for Using Battey

• Do not heat the batteries or throw them into a fire.

• Do not carry or store batteries with metal objects such as
necklaces or hairpins.

• Do not expose the batteries to water, and keep batteries from
getting wet or stored in moist locations.

• Do not attempt to take apart or change the batteries, including
battery casings.

• Do not subject the batteries to strong impacts.

• Do not use batteries that are leaking, deformed, discolored.

• Do not store batteries in warm or humid places.

• Keep the batteries out of reach of babies and small children.

• Make sure that the battery polarity (+ and ,) is correct.

59

L310GB.book Page 60 Thursday, January 17, 2008 9:44 PM

Notes and Cautions

• Do not use new with used batteries. Do not use charged and
discharged batteries together.

• Do not use different types or brands of batteries at the same time.

• If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period of time,
remove the batteries from the camera. Note if the camera is left
with the batteries removed, the time and date settings are
cleared.

• The batteries feel warm right after being used. Before removing
the batteries, turn the camera off and wait for the batteries to cool
down.

• Since batteries do not work well in cold weather or locations,
warm the batteries by placing them inside your garments before
use. Batteries do not work well when cold. They will work again
when the temperature returns to normal.

• Soil (such as fingerprints) on the battery terminals makes the
batteries charge less reducing the number of images. Carefully
wipe the battery terminals with a soft dry cloth before loading.

If any liquid at all leaks from the batteries, wipe the battery
compartment thoroughly and then load new batteries.
If any battery fluid comes into contact with your hands or
clothing, flush the area thoroughly with water. Note that
battery fluid can cause loss of eyesight if it gets into your
eyes. If this occurs, do not rub your eyes. Flush the fluid out
with clean water and contact your physician for treatment.

Z Using the AA-size Ni-MH batteries correctly

Ni-MH batteries left unused in storage for long periods can become
“deactivated”. Also, repeatedly charging Ni-MH batteries that are
only partially discharged can cause them to suffer from the
“memory effect”. Ni-MH batteries that are “deactivated” or affected
by “memory” suffer from the problem of only providing power for a
short time after being charged. To prevent this problem, discharge
and recharge them several times using the camera’s “Discharging
rechargeable batteries” function.
Deactivation and memory are specific to Ni-MH batteries and are
not in fact battery faults.
See OWNER’S MANUAL for the procedure for “Discharging
rechargeable batteries”.

CAUTION

• To charge Ni-MH batteries, use the quick battery charger (sold
separately). Refer to the instructions supplied with the charger to
make sure that the charger is used correctly.

• Do not use the battery charger to charge other batteries.

• Note that the batteries feel warm after being charged.

• Due to the way the camera is constructed, a small amount of
current is used even when the camera is turned off. Note in
particular that leaving Ni-MH batteries in the camera for a long
period will overdischarge the batteries and may render them
unusable even after recharging.

• Ni-MH batteries will self-discharge even when not used, and the
time for which they can be used may be shortened as a result.

• Ni-MH batteries will deteriorate rapidly if overdischarged (e.g. by
discharging the batteries in a flashlight). Use the “Discharging
rechargeable batteries” function provided in the camera to
discharge the batteries.

Do not use the “Discharging rechargeable
batteries” function when alkaline batteries
being used.

60

L310GB.book Page 61 Thursday, January 17, 2008 9:44 PM

• Ni-MH batteries have a limited service life. If a battery can only
be used for a short time even after repeated discharge-charge
cycles, it may have reached the end of its service life.

Z Disposing of Batteries

When disposing of batteries, do so in accordance with your local
waste disposal regulations.

Notes on both models ( , )

MANUAL of your camera.

• Use the AC power adapter for indoor use only.

• Plug the connection cord plug securely into the DC input terminal.

• Turn off the FUJIFILM Digital camera before disconnecting the
cord from the DC input terminal. To disconnect, pull out the plug
gently. Do not pull on the cord.

• Do not use the AC power adapter with any device other than your
camera.

• During use, the AC power adapter will become hot to the touch.
This is normal.

• Do not take apart the AC power adapter. Doing so could be
dangerous.

• Do not use the AC power adapter in a hot and humid place.

• Do not subject the AC power adapter to strong shocks.

• The AC power adapter may emit a humming. This is normal.
