Care to be Taken During Handling
Before Using Your Camera
• When traveling, take the Worldwide Service Network listing that is included in
the package. This will be useful if you experience problems abroad.
• When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still working
properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at a wedding or when
traveling). Contents of the recording cannot be guaranteed if recording, playback or
transferring your data to a computer, etc. is not possible due to a malfunction of your
camera or recording media (SD Memory Card), etc.
About the Battery and Charger
• To keep the battery in optimum condition, avoid storing it in a fully charged state
or in high temperatures.
• If the battery is left inserted and the camera is not used for a long time, the battery
will over-discharge and shorten the battery’s life.
• Charging the battery a day before use or on the day of use is recommended.
• The AC plug cord provided with this camera is developed exclusively for the battery
charger D-BC68P. Do not use it with other devices.
Precautions on Carrying and Using Your Camera
• Do not subject the camera to high temperatures or high humidity. Do not leave
the camera in a vehicle, as the temperature can get very high.
• Do not subject the camera to strong vibrations, shocks, or pressure. Use a cushion
to protect the camera from vibrations of motorcycles, automobiles, or ships.
• The temperature range for camera use is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).
• The monitor may appear black at high temperatures, but will return to normal
at normal temperatures.
• The monitor may respond more slowly at low temperatures. This is due to liquid
crystal properties, and is not a malfunction.
• Sudden temperature changes will cause condensation on the inside and outside
of the camera. Place the camera in your bag or a plastic bag, and remove it after
temperatures of the camera and surroundings are equalized.
• Avoid contact with garbage, mud, sand, dust, water, toxic gases, or salt. These could
cause the camera to breakdown. Wipe the camera to dry off any rain or water drops.
• Do not press the monitor with excessive force. This could cause it to break
or malfunction.
• Be careful not to overtighten the screw in the tripod socket when using a tripod.
Cleaning Your Camera
• Do not clean the camera with organic solvents such as thinner, alcohol, or benzine.
• Use a lens brush to remove dust accumulated on the lens. Never use a spray blower
for cleaning as it may damage the lens.
• Please contact a PENTAX Service Center for professional cleaning of the CMOS
sensor. (This will involve a fee.)
• Periodic inspections are recommended every one to two years to maintain high
performance.
Storing Your Camera
• Do not store the camera with preservatives or chemicals. Storage in high
temperatures and high humidity can cause mold to grow on the camera.
Remove the camera from its case and store it in a dry and well-ventilated place.
• Avoid using or storing the camera where it may be exposed to static electricity
or electrical interference.
• Avoid using or storing the camera in direct sunlight or in locations where it may
be exposed to rapid changes in temperature or to condensation.
Other Precautions
• The SD Memory Card is equipped with a writeprotect switch. Setting the switch to LOCK
prevents new data from being recorded on the
card, the stored data from being deleted, and
the card from being formatted by the camera
or computer.
• The SD Memory Card may be hot when removing
the card immediately after using the camera.
• Do not remove the SD Memory Card or turn off the power while the card is being
accessed. This may cause the data to be lost or the card to be damaged.
• Do not bend the SD Memory Card or subject it to violent impact.
Keep it away from water and store away from high temperatures.
• Do not remove the SD Memory Card while formatting. The card may be damaged
and become unusable.
• Data on the SD Memory Card may be deleted in the following circumstances.
We do not accept any liability for data that is deleted if
1. the SD Memory Card is mishandled by the user.
2. the SD Memory Card is exposed to static electricity or electrical interference.
3. the SD Memory Card has not been used for a long time.
4. the SD Memory Card or the battery is removed while the card is being accessed.
• If the SD Memory Card is not used for a long time, the data on the card may become
unreadable. Be sure to regularly make a backup of important data on a computer.
• Format new SD Memory Cards. Also format SD Memory Cards previously used with
other cameras.

• Please note that deleting data stored on an SD Memory Card, or formatting
an SD Memory Card does not completely erase the original data. Deleted files can
sometimes be recovered using commercially available software. If you are going
to discard, give away or sell your SD Memory Card, you should ensure that the data
on the card is completely deleted or the card itself is destroyed if it contains any
personal or sensitive information.
• The data on your SD Memory Card should be managed at your own risk.

Using the Histogram
A histogram shows the brightness
distribution of an image.
The horizontal axis represents
1
brightness (dark at the left and bright
Before Using Your Camera
at the right) and the vertical axis
represents the number of pixels.
The shape and the distribution of the
histogram before and after shooting
tell you whether the exposure level
and contrast are correct or not, and lets you decide if you need to adjust
the exposure and take a picture again.
1Adjusting the Exposure (p.77)
1Adjusting Brightness (p.123)
When the image is underexposed, the part to the left is cut off
(underexposed portions with no detail) and when the image is
overexposed, the part to the right is cut off (overexposed portions with
no detail).
This camera can be set so that it displays the Bright/Dark Area warning
during Capture or Playback mode.

1Setting the Display for Instant Review (p.186)
Distribution of color intensity is displayed for each color in the RGB
histogram. The right side of the graphs look similar for images that have
the white balance adjusted well. If only one color is lopsided to the left, that
color is too intense.
