CHECKING THE BATTERY POWER
When the batteries are installed in the camera, the camera checks the battery power automatically
and shows the result on the data panel.
Lights - Prepare new batteries. The batteries are no longer fully charged,
but the camera is completely functional.
All indicators go out and after that, blinks for 5 seconds and then, all indicators go out again.
- You must:
• Replace all batteries with new ones.
• Remove all batteries and use the DC adapter (sold separately, see page 26).
Taking a picture or playing back cannot be executed.
Lights - The batteries are fully charged.
* When nothing is displayed on the data panel, check that the batteries are installed with a correct
polarity (+/-). When nothing is displayed even though the batteries are installed correctly, replace
the batteries with new ones.

(Auto Power Off function) To operate the camera, slide the power switch to turn on the camera again.
• When using the batteries, the time for the auto power off function can be changed to a minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes or 30 minutes. See page 115 for details.
When using the DC adapter, the camera will turn off automatically if it is not oper­ated for more than 30 minutes. The time for the auto power off function is fixed at 30 minutes.
USING THE DC ADAPTER
We recommend you to use the AC adapter when using the camera indoor where the AC outlet supplies the power to the camera or when connecting the camera to the personal com­puter for editing the images.
Be sure to turn off the power of the camera when changing the power supply from the batteries to the
DC adapter or vice versa. Do not change it when the power of the camera is turned on.
11
Connect the mini plug of the DC adapter to the DC terminal
of the camera.
• The Shape of the mini plug may vary depending on the DC adapter.
22
Connect the power plug of the DC adapter to an AC outlet.

BASIC RECORDING PROCEDURE - CONT'D
55
Press the shutter-release button part-way down.
• The camera adjusts the focus automatically. When the subject is focused, the focus lamp (green) lights up.
• When the focus lamp (green) blinks, follow the operation from step 3 again.
• When the flash will fire, the flash lamp (orange) lights up.
• When the flash lamp (orange) blinks slowly (about 2 times in a second), the shutter speed becomes slow. Taking a picture in this mode may cause an
image to be blurred. We recommend you to take pictures after fixing the
camera on a tripod.
66
Press the shutter-release button the rest of the way down.
• If the flash lamp (orange) blinks when the shutter-release button is pressed
all the way down, the flash is being charged. When the shutter-release
button is kept pressed in this status, the shutter is released at the same time when the flash is charged.
• The captured image is displayed on the LCD monitor and is recorded in the CF card. While the image is recorded, the focus lamp (green) blinks slowly
(about 2 times in a second) and "RECORDING" is displayed on the LCD
monitor. Be sure not to open the battery-chamber door, disconnect the plug
of the AC adapter or remove the CF card until the recording in the CF card
is completed (until the focus lamp (green) and "RECORDING" goes away. Otherwise, the data in the CF card may be damaged or lost.
* When pressing the
shutter-release but­ton, there is a point where the button stops halfway. To press the shutter­released button to this point is described "Press part-way down" in this manual.

When the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the camera adjusts the focus automatically and
the focus lamp (green) shows the focus status (when the focus mode is set to the autofocus mode.)
When the focus lamp (green) blinks, check the following points:
• Did you attempt to focus on a subject which is difficult for the autofocus mode?
(See page 36).
• Is the subject closer than the minimum focus distance (or farther than 40 cm in the close up mode)? (Refer to the following.)
FOCUS DISTANCE IN THE AUTOFOCUS MODE (Minimum Focus Distance)
The focus distance in the autofocus mode is described on the list below. When the subject is closer than the minimum focus distance (0.4m) or farther than 40 cm in the close up mode, the focus lamp (green) blinks.

ADJUSTING THE FOCUS - CONT'D
THE SUBJECT THAT IS DIFFICULT TO FOCUS IN THE AUTOFOCUS MODE
The autofocus mode uses the image contrast (the difference of light and dark parts) on the CCD
(Charge Coupled Device) to focus. Therefore, autofocus mode may not be able to adjust correctly on
some subjects (see examples below). In this case, use the focus lock function (see page 37) once you focus on another subject which is at the same distance as the subject you want to take the picture of, or use the manual focus mode (adjust the focus manually, see page 39).
The subject is too dark.
The subject has no con-
trast such as a blue sky or
a white wall.
Some subjects at different
distances overlap in the
focus range.
The subject is too bright
such as a shining car body
or a surface of water.
Page 37

WHEN THE SUBJECT IS NOT IN THE CENTER OF THE FRAME
(Focus Lock Function)
When the subject is not in the center of the frame, the camera adjusts the focus on the background. In
this case, use the focus lock function to take the picture.

This camera has 3 image quality modes; " "(Fine), " " (Standard) and " " (Economy).
The image quality is related to the compression ratio of the image. The compression rate is higher in the order of " " " " " ". The higher the compression rate is, the lower the
image quality is. When you want high quality images, select " ". However, as the compression rate is low, the number of images that can be recorded on the Card is less than that in the " " or " " mode. When you want to record as many images on the card as possible, select " " or " ".
However, as the compression rate is high, the image quality is lower than in the " " mode.

SPECIFYING THE PRINT SETTINGS WITH THE DPOF
This camera supports the DPOF™ (Digital Print Order Format) Version 1.00 so that you can specify the images and the number of copies to be printed and the print type. So, the specified images can be printed at the specified number only by handing the CF card or the SmartMedia™, etc. in which not only the captured images but the DPOF data are recorded, to the photo finishing print service sup-
porting DPOF. You do not need to give them the file name or your password. Also, if you set the
media including the DPOF data in the personal printer which supports the DPOF, you can print the specified images at the specified number automatically.
* The DPOF was jointly developed by Eastman Kodak Company, Canon Inc., Fuji Photo Film co., Ltd.,
and Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Led. for direct printing from a digital camera.
* This camera does not support "DPOF Version 1.10" which was released in July, 2000.
