Things to Watch Out for When Taking Pictures
Pressing the shutter button down half way.
Lightly press the shutter button to confirm focus and flash battery charge.
Press the shutter button all way down to take the picture.
[ Lightly press the shutter button ][ Press the shutter button ]
The available recording time may vary depending on shooting conditions and camera
settings.
When the Flash Off or Slow synchro mode is selected in a low lighting condition, the camera
shake warning indicator ( ) may appear on the LCD monitor. In this case, use a tripod,
support the camera on a solid surface or change the flash mode to flash shot mode.
Compensated shooting against the light :
Please do not take pictures to the sunlight direction. Taking a picture against the sun may
make the picture dark. To take a picture against the sun, please use the [Backlight] in the
scene shooting mode (see page 53), forced flash (see page 34), spot side light (see page 50),
or exposure compensation (see page 39).
Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.
As there can be some differences between what is seen through the Viewfinder and the
resulting image when taken at a range closer than 1.5m, it is recommended that you use the
LCD monitor to compose these shots.
Using the LCD monitor extensively will drain the batteries.
We recommend turning off the LCD monitor and using the optical viewfinder as often as
possible in order to extend battery life.
Under certain conditions the auto focus system may not perform as expected.
- When photographing a subject that has little contrast.
- If the subject is highly reflective or shiny.
- If the subject is moving at high speed.
- When there is strong reflected light, or when the background is very bright.
- When the subject matter has only horizontal lines or the subject is very narrow
(such as a stick or flagpole).
- When the surroundings are dark.

INFORMATION
TIFF is the highest quality and NORMAL is the lowest setting.
Choose the setting appropriate for your needs.
The TIFF file format is for professionals and provides the best quality.
However, large file size reduces number of available pictures to take and increases
saving time to the memory card.
[Please Wait !] message is displayed while saving a TIFF file to the memory card.
If you select the TIFF file format, the double self-timer can’t be selected.
This file format complies with the DCF(Design rule for Camera File system).
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group): JPEG is the image compression standard
developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. This type of compression is most
commonly used for compressing photos and graphics because it can compress the files
efficiently without damaging the data.
50
Metering
If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change the metering method to
take brighter pictures.
Multi ( ): Exposure will be calculated based on
an average of the available light in the
image area.
However, the calculation will be biased
towards the centre of the image area.
This is suitable for general use.
Spot ( ): Only the rectangular area in the centre
of the LCD monitor will be metered for
light. This is suitable when the subject in the centre is exposed correctly,
regardless of the back lighting.

- Environments where there is high magnetism or excessive vibration.
- Areas with high explosives or highly flammable materials.
Do not let the unit come into contact with dust, vinyl goods, or chemicals, such as
insecticides, for an extended period of time.
Sand can be particularly troublesome to cameras.
- Do not let sand get inside the unit when using it on beaches, coastal dunes, or other areas
where there is lots of sand.
- Doing so may result in failure or may permanently render the unit unusable.
Handling the camera
- Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations.
- This camera is not waterproof. To avoid dangerous electrical shocks, never hold or operate
the camera with wet hands.
- If you use this camera in wet places, such as beach or pool, do not let water or sand get
inside the camera.
Extremes in temperature may cause problems.
- If the camera is transferred from a cold to a warm and humid environment, condensation
can form on the delicate electronic circuitry. If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait for at
least 1 hour until all moisture is dispersed. Moisture build up can also occur in the memory
card. If this happens, turn off the camera and remove the memory card. Wait until the
moisture has dispersed.
