PASM and C1, C2, C3 modes

Settings you change in C modes apply only to pictures taken in those modes.

For example, if you change the Color Mode to Sepia while in C mode, you still retain the default setting of Color for Auto and SCN modes.

NOTE: The settings, including Flash, are maintained for

modes or turn off the camera. Use Reset Camera (see page 48) to reset setting.

Aperture—also known as f-stop or f-number, controls the size of the lens opening, which determines the depth of field. Smaller f-numbers, for example f/2.8, refer to a bigger lens opening. Larger f-numbers, for example f/8, refer to a smaller

ISO—controls sensitivity of the camera sensor. Higher settings are more sensitive to light, but may produce unwanted “noise” in a picture. You can only use ISO 800 if you are in the 1.2 MP Picture Size setting (see page 43).

Battery information

Kodak battery replacement types/battery life

Actual battery life may vary based on usage.

Appendix

Li-Ion rechargeable battery (per charge)

Battery life per CIPA testing method. (Approximate number of pictures in Auto mode, using 64 MB internal memory

)

210-290

400

We recommend using only a Kodak Li-Ion rechargeable digital camera battery KLIC-5001. Not all manufacturers’ 3.7V Li-Ion rechargeable batteries are compatible with the camera. Damage caused by unauthorized accessories is not covered under warranty.

Optional battery: You can use a Kodak Li-Ion rechargeable digital camera battery, KLIC-5000, but it is a lower power battery. Expect approximately 30% fewer pictures per full charge than with the KLIC-5001 battery included with your camera.

Extending battery life

■ Limit the following activities that quickly deplete battery power:

– Reviewing your pictures on the camera screen (see page 11)

– Using the camera EVF screen as a viewfinder (see page 48)

– Excessive use of the flash (see page 36), Continuous AF (see page 45), and

Image Stabilization (see page 46).

■ Dirt on the battery contacts can affect battery life. Wipe the contacts with a clean,

dry cloth before loading batteries in the camera.

■ Battery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41°F (5°C). When using

your camera in cold weather, carry spare batteries and keep them warm. Do not discard cold batteries that do not work; when they return to room temperature, they may be usable.

Additional care and maintenance

■ If the camera has been subjected to inclement weather or you suspect water has

gotten inside the camera, turn off the camera and remove the batteries and card. Allow all components to air-dry for at least 24 hours before using the camera again.

■ Blow gently on the lens or camera screen to remove dust and dirt. Wipe gently

with a soft, lint-free cloth or an untreated lens-cleaning tissue. Do not use cleaning solutions unless designed specifically for camera lenses. Do not allow chemicals, such as suntan lotion, to contact painted surfaces.

■ Service agreements may be available in your country. Contact a dealer of Kodak

products for more information.
