Care to be Taken During Handling

Before Using Your Camera

•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.

•The lens on this camera is not interchangeable. The lens is not removable.

About the Battery and Power Adapter

•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.

• Class II equipment: The provided power adapter is a Class II (doubleinsulated) product.

Precautions on Carrying and Using Your Camera

•Hot and humid places should be avoided. Particular care should be taken regarding vehicles, which can become very hot inside.

•Ensure that the camera is not subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks, or pressure as this may cause damage, malfunction, or a loss in waterproof performance.

Histogram

	A histogram shows the brightness
	distribution of an image. The
		pixels
	horizontal axis represents
	brightness (dark at the left and
		of
	bright at the right) and the vertical
		Number
	axis represents the number of
	pixels.
	The shape of the histogram			(Dark)	Brightness (Bright)
	before and after shooting tells you
	whether the brightness and
		Dark portions				Bright portions
	contrast are correct or not, and

lets you decide if you need to use EV compensation and take the picture again.

Setting the Exposure (EV Compensation) 1p.86

Understanding Brightness

If the brightness is correct, the graph peaks in the middle. If the image is underexposed, the peak is on the left side, and if it is overexposed, the peak is on the right side.

	Dark image			Correct image			Bright image

When the image is underexposed, the part to the left is cut off (dark portions) and when the image is overexposed, the part to the right is cut off (bright portions). This camera has a function where overexposed areas are indicated as blinking red and underexposed areas as blinking yellow.

Understanding Contrast

The graph peaks gradually for images in which contrast is balanced. The graph peaks on both sides but sinks in the middle for images with a large difference in contrast and low amounts of mid-level brightness.
