READ THIS FIRST

Please start by reading the important messages below first.

1. Product design and specifications are subject to change without notice. This includes primary product specifications, software, software drivers, and user’s manual. This User’ s Manual is a general reference guide for the product.

2. The product and accessories that come with your camera may be different from those described in this manual. This is due to the fact that different retailers often specify slightly different product inclusions and accessories to suit their market requirements, customer demographics, and geographical preferences. Products very often vary between retailers especially with accessories such as batteries, chargers, AC adapters, memory cards, cables, carrying cases/pouches, and language support. Occasionally a retailer will specify a unique product color, appearance, and internal memory capacity. Contact your dealer for precise product definition and included accessories.

3. The manufacturer assumes no liability for any errors or discrepancies in this user’s manual.

4. For driver updates, refer to our website or contact your dealer.

INTRODUCTION

Overview

Your new digital camera delivers high quality, 2048 x 1536 resolution images using a 3.2 Megapixels CCD sensor. Using either the optical viewfinder or the 2.5" TFT color image LCD monitor, you can compose images and then examine them in detail. An auto-flash sensor automatically detects the shooting (lighting) conditions and determines whether the flash should be used. This feature helps ensure that your images turn out right.

In addition to still images, you can also record short videos by using the movie function. Images you have taken can be downloaded to your computer using the USB cable (USB

driver is required only for Win 98 and Mac OS 8.6). You can enhance and retouch your images on your computer by using the provided editing software, or image editing software you may already own. You may share your images with your friends via e-mail, in a report, or on a website.

DPOF functionality allows you to print your images on a DPOF compatible printer by simply inserting the SD memory card.

GETTING STARTED

You can use either 4 AA size batteries (Alkaline or Ni-MH), 2 CR-V3 Lithium battery packs or an AC power adapter (optional accessory) to power the camera.

When [1m], [3m] or [ ] is set, the camera takes images with the focus set to a fixed

distance.

This camera offers an accurate auto-focus mechanism. However, sometimes will be difficult

to focus or not be able to focus under the follwing situations:

When there are objects before or behind the subject; Very shiny subjects such as a mirror or car body; Subjects that hardly reflect any light such as hair or fur; When the contrast is extremely low; Subjects moving at high speed; Subjects without substance such as smoke or flame; Subjects viewed through glass; Subjects are far away and dark.

Selecting the Flash Mode

The flash is designed to function automatically when lighting conditions warrant the use of flash. You can take an image using a flash mode suitable to your circumstances.

The effective flash firing distance is about 0.5m to 4.4m (wide, ISO400). The setting still remains after the power is turned OFF manually or by auto power OFF.

1. Rotate the mode dial to either [ ] record mode or [ ] manual record mode. In the [ ] record mode, it is possible to set the

flash if the scene mode is set to [AUTO].

4. Compose your image, press the shutter button down halfway and then fully down. When the shutter button is pressed halfway down

The flash is limited to certain set modes.

The table below will help you to choose the appropriate flash mode:

Flash Mode Description

[ ] Auto The flash fires automatically according to the ambient lighting

conditions.

Select this mode for general photography.

When the scene mode is set to [ ] PORTRAIT or [ ] PROTRAIT + LANDSCAPE in [ ] record mode, the flash fires twice for [

] red-eye reduction, and the image is taken at the second

firing.

[ ] Red-eye Reduction

The flash emits a precursor-flash before the main flash fires. This causes the pupil in the human eye to constrict, reducing the redeye phenomenon.

Select this mode when taking images of people and animals in lowlight conditions.

The USB driver on the supplied CD-ROM is exclusively for Windows 98. Installing the USB driver on computers running Windows 2000/Me/XP is not necessary.

1. Insert the CD-ROM packaged with the camera into the CD-ROM drive. The welcome screen appears.

2. Click “Install USB Driver”. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation. After the USB driver installation is complete, restart your computer.

Installing the USB Driver on Macintosh Computers

Mac OS 8.6 users must install a USB driver. For Mac OS 9.0 or higher version, the computer will automatically recognize the camera and load its own USB drivers.

1. Insert the CD-ROM packaged with the camera into your CD-ROM drive.

2. Select and double-click “Digital Camera Driver Installer”.

3. Select “Install Location” and click “Install”.

4. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation and restart your computer.

Step 2: Connecting the Camera to Your Computer

1. Connect one end of the USB cable to an available USB port on your computer.

2. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the USB connector on the camera.

3. Turn the camera on.

4. Look for a new “Removable Disk” icon appearing in the “My Computer” window. Your recorded images/ video clips will be in a folder on this “removable disk”. (For Mac users, double-click the “untitled” disk on the desktop.)

Step 3: Downloading Recorded Images/Video Clips

When the camera is turned on and connected to your computer, it is considered to be a disk drive, just like a floppy disk or CD. You can download (transfer) images by copying them from the “removable disk” (“untitled” disk on a Macintosh) to your computer hard driver.

For Computers Running Windows

Open the “removable disk” by double clicking on it. Double click on the folder that contains your recorded images/video clips. Select the images/video clips that you prefer and then choose “Copy” from the “Edit” menu. After that, open the destination location and choose “Paste” from the “Edit” menu.

For Computers Running Mac OS

Open the “untitled” disk window and the hard disk or the destination location. Drag and drop from the camera disk to the desired destination.

It is recommended that you use the AC power adapter as a power supply for the camera

while transferring your images/video clips from the camera to your computer to avoid the camera maybe cut off unexpectedly when the batteries run out.

Memory card users may prefer to use a memory card reader (highly recommended).
