INTRODUCTION
Overview
Your new digital camera delivers high quality, 2912 x 2184 resolution images using a 3.0 Mega pixel imager. Using the 1.5” TFT color image LCD monitor, you can compose images and then examine them in detail.
An auto-flash sensor automatically detects the shooting (lighting) conditions and determines whether the flash should be used. This feature helps ensure that your images turn out right.
16MB internal memory (14MB available for image storage) lets you capture and store images without the need for an additional memory card. However, you may wish to expand the memory capacity (up to 512MB capacity) by using an external memory card.
In addition to still images, you can record short videos using the movie function. Images you have taken can be downloaded to your computer using the USB cable (USB driver required for Win 98 and Mac OS 9.0) You can enhance and retouch your images on your computer by using the provided editing software, or image editing software you may already own. You may share your images with your friends via e-mail, in a report, or on a website.

GETTING STARTED
You can use 2 AAA size batteries (Alkaline, Ni-MH) to power the camera.
Installing Batteries
1.Make sure the camera is off.
2.Slide the battery/SD card cover in the direction of the [OPEN] arrow.
3.Insert the batteries according to the correct polarity marks (+ or -).
4.Close the battery/SD card cover firmly.
NOTE
Avoid using batteries in extremely cold environments as low temperatures can shorten the battery life and reduce camera performance. This low temperature will also influence alkaline battery performance, therefore Ni-MH rechargeable battery is highly recommended.
If you are using the new rechargeable batteries or rechargeable batteries that have not been used for an extended period of time (batteries that pass the expiry date are exceptions) might affect the number of pictures that can be taken. Therefore, to maximize their performance and lifetime, we recommend that you fully charge the batteries and discharge them for at least one complete cycle before use.
If you will not be using the batteries for an extended period of time, remove them from the camera to prevent leakage or corrosion.
Never use batteries of different types (together) or mix old and new batteries.
Never use manganese batteries.
Inserting an SD memory card (optional accessory)
The camera comes with 16MB (14MB available for image storage) of internal memory, allowing you to store images and video clips in the camera. However, you can expand
-12-
English
the memory capacity by using an optional SD (Secure Digital) memory card so that you can store additional images and video clips.
1.Make sure the camera is turned off.
2.Slide the battery/SD card cover in the direction of the [OPEN] arrow.
3.Insert the SD memory card.
The front side of the memory card (printed arrow) should face towards the rear side of the camera.
If the card cannot be inserted, check the orientation.
4.Close the battery/SD card cover.
NOTE
Be sure to format the memory card with this camera before its initial usage. Refer to section in this manual titled “Formatting Media” for further details.
To remove a memory card:
Make sure the camera is turned off. Open the battery/memory card cover. Press lightly on the edge of the memory card and it will eject.
NOTE
To prevent valuable data from being accidentally erased from an SD memory card you can slide the write-protected tab (on the side of the SD memory card) to “LOCK”.
To save, edit, or erase data on an SD memory card, you must unlock the card.
-13-
English
Attaching the Hand Strap
To prevent accidental slippage during use, always use the strap.
Attach the camera strap as follows:
1.Thread the small loop of the hand strap through the hand strap eyelet on the camera.
2.Pull the large loop through the small loop until the strap is firmly secured
Turning the Power On/Off
The camera is switched between On/Off as follows:
1.You can use the POWER button to power on/off the camera.
Open the lens cover before you start taking pictures/recording video clips.
When the power is turned on, the camera will start in the 
mode.
NOTE
If the camera goes unused for a certain period of time while the camera is powered on, the camera will switch to an idle mode, and eventually turn itself off to conserve power.
Setting the Date and Time
The Date/Time screen will be presented if/when:
Camera is turned on for the first time.
Camera is turned on after leaving the camera without batteries for an extended
