Getting Ready to Shoot
Turn the power on and get ready to shoot.
Note
If you have already used this camera, follow the
steps below to make sure it is turned off before
removing or loading batteries.
1. Make sure the LCD monitor is turned off.
2. Make sure the lens cover is closed.
For how to turn the camera off, see P.21.
About the Batteries
The following batteries can be used in the camera. Please choose
which kind to use according to your needs.
• AA Alkaline Batteries (LR6) (included)
You can obtain them anywhere, so they are convenient for travel.
However, in a low-temperature environment the number of shots
you can take will decrease. Warm the batteries before use. It is
recommended that you use the rechargeable battery when using
the camera for a long time.
• Rechargeable Battery (sold separately)
This is a lithium-ion battery. This is economical because you can
recharge it using the battery charger (sold separately) and use it
over and over again. They last a long time, so they are convenient
for travel.
• AA Nickel Batteries (available in stores)
These batteries are not rechargeable. However, they last a long
time as compared with AA Alkaline Batteries when used with a
digital camera.
16
JD2OEMQSGE.fm17ページ2005年1月13日 木曜日 午前12時27分
• Nickel-Hydrogen Battery (available in stores)
This is economical because you can recharge and use it over and
over again. Use a charger (available in stores) for charging.
The battery may be inert and consequently it may not supply
power immediately after it is purchased or left unused for more
than a month. In such a case, recharge the battery two or three
times before use. The battery self-discharges with time even if the
camera is not used, so recharge it before use.
Note
Indication of the number of images you can take
Battery TypeNumber of Shots(dr5)Number of Shots(dr4)
Rechargeable BatteryApprox. 490Approx. 500
AA Alkaline BatteriesApprox. 190Approx. 200
• The number of shots is based on a temperature of 22 degrees Celsius, shooting at 30
second intervals and one out of every two being shot with the flash. If you set the camera to
the Power-Save or Synchro-Monitor mode, the number of shots you can take will increase.
• The number of shots is for reference only. If the camera is used for long periods of time for
setting and playback, the shooting time (the number of shots) will decrease.
Quick Guide
Reference
• For how to insert the Rechargeable Battery , see P.139.
17
JD2OEMQSGE.fm18ページ2005年1月13日 木曜日 午前12時27分
Caution
• Other batteries, such as manganese dry cell (R6) and Ni-Cd, cannot be used.
• You may not use CR-V3.
• Please remove the batteries if you are not going to use the camera for a long period of
time.
• The life of an AA alkaline battery (LR6) depends on the brand and the storage time from the
date of production. In addition, the life of an alkaline battery becomes shorter at low
temperatures.
• The Nickel-Hydrogen Battery is not factory-charged. Charge it before use.
Immediately after the purchase or after a long storage, the battery may not be charged fully.
Repeat charging and discharging before use. For details, see the documentation that came
with the battery or charger.
• The battery may become very hot immediately after operation. Turn the camera off and
leave it to cool down sufficiently before removing the battery.
Note
Battery level indication
A battery mark appears at the lower left of the LCD monitor to indicate the battery level.
Prepare new batteries before the batteries wear out.
Battery M arkDescription
Sufficient battery charge
Low remaining charge: Prepare new batteries.
No remaining charge: Replace the batteries.
Caution
• If you are using nickel metal hydride batteries, may not appear or or
may appear immediately depending on the battery type and environmental
conditions. Check the batteries at hand before use.

About an SD Memory Card (available in stores)
You can store still images you have taken either in the camera's internal memory or on
an SD Memory Card (available in stores). The internal memory capacity is 12 MB.
When you want to record a lot of images, or images at high resolutions, use a highcapacity SD Memory Card.
Note
Where images are recorded
When no SD memory card is inserted, the camera records images in the internal memory;
when an SD memory card is inserted, it records images on the memory card.
When no memory card is loadedWhen an SD Memory Card is loaded
Records to i nternal memoryRecords to th e SD memory card
Caution
• If an SD memory card is loaded, the camera will not record to the internal memory, even if
the card is full.
• Take care not to get the metal parts of the card dirty.
Note
Write-protecting your images
If you move the card's write-protection switch to LOCK, your still images cannot
be accidentally erased and the memory card cannot be formatted. If you
release the protection (by returning the switch to its original position), it is once
again possible to erase images and format the card.
So it's a good idea to switch to LOCK when you have some important data
recorded.
Note that you cannot shoot images in the LOCK state because no data can be recorded on the card.
Unlock the card when shooting.
Reference
• For switching between the SD Memory Card and internal memory during playback, see P.35.
• For recording capacities, see P.144.

Direct Printing ........................................44
The Direct Print standard enables direct printing from a camera to a printer, by
connecting them via a USB cable. Photos can be printed quickly and easily
from your digital camera without using a computer.
Caution
• You cannot print movies (.AVI) with this function. For still images with sounds (.JPG and
.WAV), only the still images (.JPG) are printed.
• Some printer does not support images taken in Text mode (TIFF). Even when TIFF images
are printed, their printed contents cannot be guaranteed.
Note
• This camera uses PictBridge, an industry standard for Direct Printing.
• Your printer must comply with the PictBridge to use the Direct Print function. For support
information, see the documentation that came with the printer.
Connecting the Camera to a Printer
Connect your camera to a printer using the USB cable provided.
1. Make sure the camera power is off.
2. Make sure the printer power is off.
Load paper into the printer and check that the printer is ready to print.
3. Connect one end of the USB cable provided to the USB port
of your printer.
4. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the USB terminal
on your camera.
5. Turn the printer power on.
Note
To disconnect the camera from the printer, check that the power is off on both units before
disconnecting the USB cable between them.

You can send still images from the camera to a PictBridge
compatible printer to print them.
Still images are sent from the internal memory when no SD memory
card is loaded or from an SD memory card when one is loaded.

Changing the Exposure (EXPOSURE COMP.)
The exposure setting allows you to select brightness levels for your shots.
Normally, if your subject is centered, backlight compensation is automatically
activated, and you can shoot with correct exposure.
However, in the following cases, or when you intentionally want to change the
exposure, you can change the exposure setting. Exposure can be specified in
the range from -2.0 to +2.0. Setting the level higher (+) makes pictures
brighter and lower (-) makes pictures darker.
For Backlighting
When the background is particularly bright, the subject will be dark (underexposure). In this case, set the exposure level higher (+).
When your subject is whitish
It will turn out entirely dark (underexposure). Set the exposure level higher (+).
When your subject is darkish
It will turn out entirely bright (overexposure). Set the exposure level lower (-).
The same happens when you take photos of people in a spotlight.
To change the setting, use either the Shooting Setting menu or the adjust button.
This section explains easy ways with the adjust button.
When using the Shooting Setting menu, see "Using the Shooting Setting Menu" ( P.51).

Changing Sensitivities (ISO SETTING)
The ISO sensitivity indicates how sensitive to light the film is. A
greater value means higher sensitivity. High sensitivity is suitable for
shooting an object in a dark place or moving fast and suppresses
blurring. However, the images become rough.
For higher or lower sensitivity, you can select from the following six
levels:
AUTO, ISO64, ISO100, ISO200, ISO400, ISO800
A digital camera can automatically vary the sensitivity according to
the distance, brightness, zoom, and macro (AUTO). Usually use
your camera in the AUTO mode.
To change the setting, use either the Shooting Setting menu or the adjust button.
