Never remove the battery while a picture is being saved. Doing so will prevent the current picture from being saved and may corrupt other pictures already stored on the camera’s internal memory or a memory card.
• Taking Pictures in Normal Mode
You can take pictures at approximately 1.3 feet to infinity (40cm to infinity).
NOTE:
Most settings are saved by the camera when the power is turned off so that the same setting is automatically available when the power is turned on again. Make sure you verify your settings when turning the camera on again.
1. Set the camera to the Still Image mode.
2. Frame your subject using the LCD screen.
3. Press the Shutter button halfway to set the exposure and focus. The camera automatically detects the subject. The camera highlights the focus mark in green and the Auto Focus Lamp remains steady on, indicating the camera focus is locked on the subject. When the camera’s focus mark are in red and the Auto Focus Lamp blinks, there is difficulty in focusing the subject. Release the Shutter button, recompose the scene and press the Shutter button halfway to reset the focus.

• Understanding How ASM Works
Using the Aperture Priority
In the aperture-priority mode, you select an aperture and the camera chooses an appropriate shutter speed to match the brightness. The main purpose of using aperture-priority mode is to control the Depth of Field. A higher aperture value brings the background out of focus. Selecting a
lower aperture value allows you to soften the background.
Using the Shutter Priority
In the shutter-priority mode, you select a shutter speed and the camera chooses an appropriate aperture value to match the brightness. The main purpose of using the shutter-priority mode is to have a faster shutter speed to freeze the action of fast-moving subjects or to have a slower shutter speed to blur moving subjects in order to create a sense of motion. Faster shutter speeds allow you to take a sharp picture of a moving subject while slower speeds create a trail effect and allow you to shoot without a flash
in dark areas.
Using the Manual Exposure
Under the manual exposure mode, you can set both aperture and shutter speed, and, therefore, you have complete control over the exposure
system, including exposure compensation.
Press the shutter button halfway, the difference between the standard exposure and the selected exposure appears in red.

• Setting the Image Size and Quality
Picture resolution refers to the number of pixels in a digital picture. Picture quality depends on the JPEG file compression that the camera applies when the picture is taken. Higher resolution and less compression make better quality which occupies more memory space. Smaller size pictures with normal quality are easier to email while larger size with fine quality are better for printing.

• Setting the ISO
This function enables you to change the camera’s sensitivity to light by selecting the different ISO values. ISO is a measure of how quickly your camera reacts to light. The higher the ISO value, the less light the camera needs to make an exposure, allowing the same exposure to be achieved with higher shutter speeds or smaller apertures. In a digital camera, higher ISO value allows higher shutter speed, at the expense of mottled or grain appearing in the final picture.

• About DPOF
DPOF stands for “Digital Print Order Format”, which is a format for recording on a memory card or other medium which digital camera images should be printed and how many copies of the image should be printed. Then you can print on a DPOF-compatible printer or at a professional print service from the memory card in accordance with the file 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 file name without viewing the file contents.
IMPORTANT!
DPOF print settings can be congured for images on a memory card only, not for
images in the camera’s built-in memory.

8 Using the SD (Secure Digital) Card
• Using the SD Card
Your camera comes with built-in flash memory for storing pictures and video clips. You can expand the memory using a Polaroid SD card (not included) (up to 2GB). 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 flash memory while a memory card is installed in the camera. See pages 102 to 105 for storage capacities.
Memory card precautions:
1. Use only a 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 formatting it. However, we recommend that you always take along with more than one memory card whenever using the camera far away from your home or office.
4. We recommend that you format a memory card when using it for the first time, 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.
84
www.polaroid.com
Page 85
IMPORTANT!
• Make sure you turn off the camera before inserting or removing a memory
card.
• Be sure to orient the card correctly when inserting 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
t830 camera, and valuable data in your existing SD card may be distorted or lost when the card is inserted in the t830 camera. We strongly recommend the user to use a NEW or formatted Polaroid SD card (not included) for the t830 camera. The manufacturer is not liable for losing or corrupting any valuable
data or les in your SD card due to improper operation.
Inserting a SD card
1. Turn off the camera.
2. Open the battery/SD card door by pushing it outwards as illustrated.
3. Insert the SD card and ensure the card is inserted the correct position as illustrated.
4. Close the battery/SD card door by pressing it downwards and then slide it back to lock.

Removing the SD card
To remove the SD card, turn off your camera and open the battery/SD card door. Gently push the SD card inwards and then release it. The SD card will eject out of the SD card slot.

IMPORTANT!
• Never insert 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 battery or disconnect the AC adapter, and contact your dealer or the nearest service provider.
• Never remove a card from the camera while the camera is powered on. Doing
so can cause the picture or video recording operation to fail, and even damage the memory card.
