2. Point the camera towards the subject and compose the image by using the LCD monitor.

3. Press the Shutter button to capture an image.



Things to watch out for using the DUAL IS mode

1. The digital zoom will not operate in the DUAL IS mode.

2. If the lighting conditions are brighter than ﬂ uorescent lighting

3. If the lighting condition is darker than in ﬂ uorescent lighting

conditions, camera shake warning indicator ( Ã ) will display. For best results only take pictures in situations where the camera shake warning indicator ( Ã ) is not displayed.

4. If the subject is moving, the captured image may be blurred.

5. As the DUAL IS uses the camera’s digital signal processor, it may take a little longer for the camera to process and save the images.

Be sure to observe the following precautions!



This unit contains precision electronic components. Do not use or store this unit in the following locations.

Yes

- Areas exposed to severe changes in temperature and humidity.

- Areas exposed to dust and dirt.

- Areas exposed to direct sunlight or the inside of a vehicle in hot weather.

- Environments where there is high magnetism or excessive vibration.

- Areas with high explosives or highly flammable materials.



Do not leave this camera in places subject to dust, chemicals (like naphthalene and mothballs), high temperature and high humidity.

Keep this camera with silica gel in a hermetically sealed box when not planning to use the camera for a long period of time



Sand can be particularly troublesome to cameras.

- Do not let sand get inside the camera when using it on beaches,

coastal dunes, or other areas where there is lots of sand.

- Doing so may result in failure or may permanently render the

camera unusable.



Handling the camera

- Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations.

- Protect the large size LCD monitor from an impact. When this

camera is not used, keep it in the camera case.

- Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.

- This camera is not waterproof.

To avoid dangerous electrical shocks, never hold or operate the camera with wet hands.

Important notes

- If you use this camera in wet places, such as beach or pool, do not let water or sand get inside the camera. Doing so may result in failure or may permanently damage the unit.



Extremes in temperature may cause problems.

- If the camera is transferred from a cold to a warm and humid environment, condensation can form on the delicate electronic circuitry. If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait for at least 1 hour until all moisture is dispersed. Moisture built up can also occur on the memory card. If this happens, turn off the camera and remove the memory card. Wait until the moisture has dispersed.

Caution on Using the Lens

- If the lens is subjected to direct sunlight, it could result in the discoloration and deterioration of the image sensor.

- Take care not to get fingerprints or foreign substances on the surface of the lens.



If the digital camera is not used for a long period, an electric discharge can occur. It is a good idea to remove the battery and

the memory card if you do not intend using the camera for an extended period of time.



If the camera is exposed to an electronic interference, it will turn itself off to protect the memory card.



Camera Maintenance

- Use a soft brush (available from photo stores) to gently clean the lens and LCD assemblies. If this does not work, lens-cleaning paper with lens cleaning fluid can be used. Clean the camera body with a soft cloth. Do not allow this camera to come into contact with solvent materials such as benzol, insecticide, thinners etc. This may damage the body shell of the camera and also affect its performance. Rough handling can damage the LCD monitor. Take care to avoid damage and keep the camera in its protective carry case at all times when not in use.





When images are uploaded or downloaded, the data transfer may be affected by static electricity. In this case, disconnect and re-

connect the USB cable before trying the transfer again.



Before an important event or going on a trip, you should check the camera condition.

- Take a picture for testing the camera condition and prepare extra battery.
