In the rare situation that the camera locks up (usually in a very low power situation), we have incorporated a Reset button on the back of the camera that allows the camera processor to be reset without losing any images. To use the Reset button, simply depress the Reset button gently (holding for around 5 seconds) using a paper clip or ball point pen. The camera will power off automatically.

• Setting the Image Size and Quality

Picture resolution refers to the number of pixels in a digital picture. Picture quality depends on the JPEG le compression that the camera applies when the picture is taken. Higher resolution and less compression produces better quality but occupies more memory space. Smaller size pictures and normal quality are easier to email while larger size and ne quality are better for printing.

• DPOF (Digital Print Order Format)

”DPOF” stands for “Digital Print Order Format”, which is a format for recording on a memory card or other medium which captured images and how many copies should be printed. Then you can print on a DPOFcompatible printer or at a professional print service from the memory card in accordance with the le name and number of copies settings recorded on the card.

With this camera, you should always select images by viewing them on the LCD screen. Do not specify images by le name without viewing the le contents.

NOTE:

Print settings are congured for images only. Make sure there are no video clips

7 Using the SD (Secure Digital) Card

• Using the SD Card

Your camera comes with built-in ash memory for storing pictures and video clips. You can expand the memory using a commercially available SD card (up to 1GB). The camera senses whether a memory card is inserted, and automatically saves pictures and video clips accordingly. Note that you cannot save pictures or video clips to the built-in ash memory while a memory card is installed in the camera.

See pages 76 to 78 for storage capacities.

Memory Card Precautions

1. Use only an SD memory card with this camera.

2. Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause data corruption or even loss. Always make sure that you always back up important data on other media (MO disc, computer hard drive, etc.).

3. If a memory card starts to behave abnormally, you can restore normal operation by reformatting it. However, we recommend that you always take along more than one memory card whenever using the camera far away from the home or ofce.

4. We recommend that you format a memory card before using it for the rst time after purchasing it, or whenever the card you are using seems to be the cause of abnormal pictures. Remember to format a memory card if it was used in another digital camera or other devices.

Polaroid izone30 0™ Digital Ca mera User Gu ide www.polaroid.com

IMPORTANT!

• Make sure you turn off the camera before inserting or removing a memory card.

• Be sure to orient the card correctly when inser ting it. Never try to force a

memory card into the slot when you feel resistance.

• SD memory cards have a write protection switch that you can use to

protect les from accidental deletion. However, you must remove the write protection whenever you want to record new les onto it, format it, or delete its les.

• Files contained in the SD card recorded by other cameras may conict with

the izone300™ camera, and valuable data in your existing SD card may be distorted or lost when the card is inserted in the izone300™ camera. We strongly recommend the user to use a NEW or formatted SD card for the izone300™ camera. The manufacturer is not liable for losing or corrupting any valuable data or les in your SD card due to your improper operation.

• As tests prove, the izone300™ works best with popular brands of memory

cards such as SanDisk, Panasonic, Lexar and TOSHIBA. Consider using these cards for best performance.

Inserting the SD Card

Turn off the camera. Insert the SD card and ensure the card is inserted correctly as illustrated.

The

icon will appear on the LCD screen when a SD card is inserted into the camera.

Removing the SD Card

To remove the SD card, turn off your camera and gently push the SD card inwards. And then release it for the SD card to eject from the SD card slot.

Polaroid izone30 0™ Digital Ca mera User Gu ide

www.polaroid.com

Polaroid izone30 0™ Digital Ca mera User Gu ide www.polaroid.com

IMPORTANT!

• Never inser t any other object into the camera’s SD card slot. Doing so creates the risk of damage to the camera and card.

• Should water or any foreign objects ever get into the card slot, immediately turn off the camera, remove the batteries and contact your deale r or nearest service provider.

• Never remove a card from the camera while the camera is powered on. Doing so can cause the recording operation to fail, and even damage the memory card.

Formatting the SD Card

Formatting the SD card erases all les stored in it, including the protected ones. Removing the SD card during formatting may damage the card.

1. Insert an SD card into the camera card slot.

2. Turn on the camera.

3. Procedures are the same as for formatting the internal memory. Refer to “Formatting the Internal Memory” on page 22 for details.

IMPORTANT!

• You can format a memor y card on the camera or on a computer. However

formatting a memory card on a computer takes much longer.

• Note that the data deleted by a format operation cannot be recovered.

Make sure you do not have any useful data currently store d on a memory card before you format it.
