Battery Tips:
• Remember to keep spare batteries with you at all times.
• Read and follow all warnings and instructions supplied by the battery

Tips for Better Pictures
• Hold the camera steady when taking pictures.
• Keep your pictures simple. Move close enough to your subject so it fills
the viewfinder but not closer than 4 ft (1.2 m).
• T ake pictures at the subject’ s level. Kneel down to take pictures of
children and pets.
• Hold your camera vertically to capture tall, narrow subjects, such as a
waterfall, skyscraper, or a single person.
• Add interest to your picture by framing it with a tree branch, window, or
even the rails of a fence.
• Keep the sun behind you for best subject illumination.
17
Taking Flash Pictures
In dim light, such as indoors or outdoors in heavy shade or on dark overcast days, you need flash. Y our camera has a built-in flash with automatic red-eye reduction which fires when needed. When the Camera- /Flash-Ready Indicator (12) turns off, the camera is fully charged and ready for picture-taking.
Flash-to-Subject Distance
ISO Film Speed Flash-to-Subject Distance
100 4 to 10 ft (1.2 to 3.0 m) 200 4 to 14 ft (1.2 to 4.3 m) 400 4 to 20 ft (1.2 to 6.1 m)
18
Flash Tips
• Turn on room lights and have the subject face the lights to minimize
red eyes in pictures.
• Stand at an angle to shiny surfaces like windows or mirrors to avoid
flash reflection and bright spots in your pictures.
• Keep your fingers and other objects away from the picture-taking lens
and flash to avoid dark or light pictures.

Unloading the Film
After you take the last picture on the film cassette, the film automatically starts to rewind. When the film is fully rewound, the LCD Panel (11) will display “0” and “E” will appear when you remove the film from the camera.
IMPORTANT: Do not remove the film cassette from the camera until the motor completely stops and “0” appears on the LCD panel.
