1 Getting Started With the QuickTake 100 Camera The QuickTake 100 is an easy-to-use camera that produces high-quality pictures you can quickly transfer to your Macintosh computer. With the QuickTake 100 you can capture images, and with your Macintosh you can manipulate and modify those images to suit your purposes. The QuickTake 100 is a valuable new tool for graphic artists, publishing professionals, and anyone who wants to use images to communicate. IMPORTANT Save this manual.
Do you have what you need? Before you begin, unpack the QuickTake 100 package. Be sure you have the items shown in this illustration: QuickTake 100 camera Rechargeable NiCad batteries Battery charger Serial cable QuickTake software Neck strap System requirements To use the QuickTake 100 camera with your computer, you need m a Macintosh with a 68020 or higher central processing unit (any Macintosh except a Macintosh Plus, SE, Classic, Portable, or PowerBook 100) m system software version 7.0.
Your camera at a glance This illustration shows the front, rear, and bottom of the camera.
Charging the batteries The three NiCad batteries you received with the QuickTake 100 must be charged before you can use them. Use the battery charger that came with the camera. 1 Insert the batteries into the charger. When batteries are charging, this red light glows. Make sure you position the + and – ends of each battery as indicated on the battery charger. 2 Plug the battery charger into an electrical outlet. It takes five hours to fully charge three NiCad batteries.
Installing the batteries Use the three NiCad batteries that came with your camera. If the NiCad batteries are being charged, you can substitute three AA non-rechargeable batteries in the camera. WARNING Do not mix different types of batteries in the camera. Use only three NiCad batteries or three AA non-rechargeable batteries. Mixing batteries may cause a fire or a small explosion. 1 Flip open the door to the battery compartment. 2 Insert the batteries into the camera.
Installing the QuickTake software Before you can transfer images from your camera to your Macintosh computer, you need to install the necessary software on your Macintosh. You’ll need the QuickTake disks that came with your camera. The disks contain m the Installer, a program that installs everything you need m QuickTake 1.0, a program that transfers pictures from the camera to your Macintosh m other files needed by the QuickTake 100 camera IMPORTANT If you have system software version 7.0.
4 In the Installer dialog box, click Install. Make sure you install the QuickTake software on the disk you use as your startup disk. When you’re ready to begin, click Install. To switch to a different disk, click Switch Disk. A status box keeps you informed of progress during installation. 5 When you see a message on your screen, follow directions and insert the next disk. Near the end of the process, you’ll be asked to insert the first disk again.
What if you upgrade your Macintosh system software? If you decide to replace or upgrade your Macintosh system software after you’ve installed the QuickTake software, you may not be able to open the QuickTake application program. To fix this problem, reinstall the QuickTake software. As an alternative, you can use the custom Installer: 1 Insert the appropriate installation disk into a floppy disk drive. The choice depends on whether you have a Power Macintosh or not.
2 Using the Camera to Take Pictures Because the QuickTake 100 camera is small and light and runs on batteries, you can take pictures with it anywhere.
Turning on the camera To turn the camera on, slide open the lens cover. Lens cover 10 Chapter 2 Be careful not to touch the camera lens.
Taking pictures Look straight through the viewfinder and take time to frame the subject you want to photograph. Hold the camera steady, and press the shutter release. Because the camera delays briefly before taking the picture, be sure to hold it still until you hear the shutter click. When the camera is ready for the next picture (in a few seconds), a green light glows in the viewfinder. The pictures can remain in the camera’s memory up to one year (or until you erase them). Press the shutter release.
Using the controls When the camera is on, the control panel display appears. Flash button Control panel display Resolution button A Erase All button (explained in Chapter 3) Timer button Flash settings There are three possible settings for the flash. Each time you press the flash button, you cycle from one setting to the next. To let the camera’s light sensor determine when to flash, press the button until you see this icon. For a flash with every picture, press the button until you see this icon.
Resolution settings There are two possible settings for resolution. Each time you press the resolution button, you toggle from one setting to the other. For standard resolution, press the button until you see this icon. A For high resolution, press the button until you see this icon. A m Standard resolution means 320 x 240 pixels. You can take up to 32 standard-resolution pictures. m High resolution means 640 x 480 pixels. Each picture contains more detail.
Pictures taken and pictures available The number in the center of the control panel shows how many pictures you’ve taken. The smaller number next to the resolution icon shows how many pictures you can take before the camera is full. Pictures taken A Pictures you can take at the selected resolution A This number changes when you change the resolution setting. The camera automatically switches to standard resolution when there isn’t enough memory for a high-resolution picture.
Timer The timer gives you 10 seconds before the camera takes a picture. 1 Press the timer button. A When the timer is on, the timer icon blinks. 2 Press the shutter and prepare for the picture. On the top front of the camera, a red indicator light glows steadily for eight seconds, then it blinks rapidly for another two seconds. When time is up, the camera takes the picture.
Waking the camera To conserve battery power, the camera goes to sleep after 60 seconds of inactivity (or after 5 minutes of inactivity when connected to your Macintosh). To wake it, you can press and release the shutter, or close and reopen the sliding lens cover. If the camera is connected to your Macintosh, you must close and reopen the lens cover to wake it. Pressing the shutter won’t work. To wake the camera, press and release the shutter. Or close and reopen the lens cover.
3 Using the Camera With Your Macintosh When you finish taking pictures (or when the camera is full), you can connect it to your Macintosh computer and transfer the pictures to the computer.
Connecting the camera to your Macintosh Use the serial cable that came with your camera. 1 Turn off the camera (shut the lens cover). 2 Plug one end of the serial cable into the modem or printer port on your Macintosh. These icons identify the printer and modem ports on your Macintosh. Connect the camera to either port. Some Macintosh computers have a combined serial port with two icons. If both ports are in use, free the one that’s most convenient and connect the camera.
3 Plug the other end of the cable into the serial port on the camera. Press the cover in and slide it open. 4 Serial port Turn on the camera (open the lens cover). When the camera is connected and turned on, an animated rectangle appears on the control panel display. The edge of the rectangle moves.
Looking at the pictures in the camera While the pictures are in the camera, you can see what they look like and work with them. (To move them to your Macintosh before you work with them, see the next section, “Transferring Pictures to Your Macintosh.”) 1 Connect the camera to your Macintosh. For instructions, see “Connecting the Camera to Your Macintosh,” earlier in this chapter. 2 If necessary, turn on the camera by sliding open the lens cover.
Transferring pictures to your Macintosh Before you can transfer pictures from the camera, it must be connected to your Macintosh. For instructions, see “Connecting the Camera to Your Macintosh,” earlier in this chapter. 1 If the camera is off, turn it on by sliding open the lens cover. When the camera is connected and turned on, an animated rectangle appears on the control panel display. 2 On your Macintosh, double-click the QuickTake icon to open it.
Opening pictures on the Macintosh Once the pictures are on your Macintosh, you can use the QuickTake software to look at them, make some changes, and save the pictures in a variety of formats and bit depths. (See “Working with Pictures,” later in this chapter.) Opening a picture in the image window 1 On your Macintosh, double-click the QuickTake icon to open it. 2 Choose Open from the File menu. 3 In the box that appears, click the picture you want to see and click Open.
Opening a slide table 1 On your Macintosh, double-click the QuickTake icon to open it. 2 Choose Open Slide Table from the File menu. 3 In the box that appears, find the pictures you want to see. In this example, the pictures contained in the Mixed Pictures folder will open as a slide table. 4 When you’ve found the pictures you want to open as a slide table, click Choose. To open the slide table, click the Choose button. The pictures appear in a slide table window.
Working with your pictures Whether the pictures are in the camera or have been moved to your Macintosh, you can use the QuickTake software to look at them, make some changes, and save the pictures in a variety of formats and bit depths.
Editing slide names You can give your slides names that mean something to you. Select the name under the slide and type a new name. Getting information about a slide 1 Click the slide. 2 Choose Get Info from the File menu. An information window appears.
Opening a slide to a full-size image To see the picture full size, double-click the slide. Double-click the slide to see it full size.
Zoom views in the image window To see the picture in the image window enlarged, actual size, or reduced, choose View from the Image menu, then choose an item from the submenu. When you choose Zoom In, the image doubles in size. When you choose Zoom Out, the image shrinks to half its previous size. High-resolution images show 144 dots per inch (dpi). Standard resolution images show 72 dpi.
Cropping a picture 1 Drag the pointer to include just the part of the picture you want in the selection rectangle. Inside the rectangle is the part of the image you keep. If you don’t get it right the first time, click outside the selection rectangle (or press x-Z) to cancel the selection. Then try again. 2 Choose Crop from the Image menu. The cropped image appears.
Changing the bit depth of a picture You may want to change the image bit depth of a picture you take. For example, if the picture uses millions of colors, but you plan to print it on a grayscale printer, you can change the image bit depth to 256 shades of gray. Changing bit depth and compression scheme can reduce the amount of disk space required to store an image, but the changes may affect image quality. To change the bit depth, choose Change Image Depth from the Image menu.
Rotating a picture To rotate the selected slide or picture, choose Rotate from the Image menu. A submenu appears, and you can specify how far you want to turn the slide or picture. In the slide table, you can only rotate pictures that are in the PICT QuickTake format. You can rotate a single, full-size image in any format. If you rotate a picture that’s in the camera, you must save it to make the change permanent.
Saving a picture If you want to preserve changes you make, you have to save the modified picture. The Save and Save As commands in the QuickTake software behave like the same commands in other Macintosh application programs. In addition, the QuickTake software provides features that allow you to choose a specific file format (such as PICT or TIFF), bit depth, and file compression. 1 To save the picture in the active image window, choose Save As from the File menu.
3 Choose the file format you want from the pop-up menu. These three formats use JPEG compression for a smaller file size, but with some loss of image quality. The file format you choose depends on the requirements of the application into which you plan to import the picture. m PICT is the basic Macintosh file format for images and is used by almost all Macintosh programs that read image files. The PICT QuickTake format is created (and compressed) by the camera.
Printing your pictures You can use the QuickTake application to print the pictures you take, and you can print them while they are on the camera or after you transfer them to your Macintosh. Printing a slide table 1 Open the slide table you want to print. 2 Choose Print from the File menu. 3 In the box that appears, choose the settings you want. When the options are set the way you want them, click Print. IMPORTANT Be sure to click Color/ Grayscale before you print QuickTake images.
Printing a single image 1 Make sure the picture you want to print is opened as a full-size image. 2 Choose Print from the File menu. 3 In the box that appears, choose the settings you want. When the options are set the way you want them, click Print. IMPORTANT Be sure to click Color/ Grayscale before you print QuickTake images. Sometimes a printed high-resolution picture is smaller than it appears on your screen.
Naming the camera You can give your camera a name. When you look at the pictures while they’re on the camera, its name appears as the title of the slide table window. The camera must be connected to your Macintosh. For instructions, see “Connecting the Camera to Your Macintosh,” earlier in this chapter. 1 On your Macintosh, double-click the QuickTake icon to open it. 2 Choose Set Camera Name from the Camera menu. 3 In the box that appears, type the name you want.
Setting the clock in the camera The camera’s internal clock keeps track of the date and time you take each picture. This information is useful, and in some circumstances important, so take time now to set the clock. The camera must be connected to your Macintosh. (For instructions, see “Connecting the Camera to Your Macintosh,” earlier in this chapter.) If you want to check the date and time on the Macintosh before you set the camera, use the General Controls panel.
Taking pictures from the Macintosh You can use the camera controls on your Macintosh to take pictures. 1 Connect the camera to your Macintosh. For instructions, see “Connecting the Camera to Your Macintosh” earlier in this chapter. 2 Arrange the camera so it’s in a position to take the picture you want. 3 Choose Camera Controls from the Camera menu. 4 In the box that appears, change any settings to suit your needs. For details about the different settings, see “Using the Controls” in Chapter 2.
Erasing pictures from the camera After you transfer your pictures to your Macintosh, you should erase them from the camera to make room for new pictures. To erase all the pictures in the camera, lightly press the Erase All button. (Use any small, pointed object.) As the pictures are erased, the Trash icon in the control panel display blinks. In a few seconds, the display shows 0 (zero) pictures taken. If the camera is connected to your Macintosh, there’s another way to erase pictures.
Using the camera with a power adapter To conserve battery power, you can use a power adapter and plug the camera into an available power outlet. Use only the QuickTake 100 AC Adapter (part number M2851LL/A) or the PowerBook AC Adapter with the QuickTake 100. It’s a good idea to use the power adapter for power while the camera is connected to your Macintosh. (Note: The power adapter does not recharge batteries in the camera.
Traveling with the camera The QuickTake 100 Travel Case (part number M2848G/A) is available at authorized Apple resellers. The travel case includes a leather camera grip and a protective carrying case. QuickTake 100 Travel Case Using the battery booster pack with the camera The QuickTake 100 Battery Booster Pack (part number M2655G/A) is available at authorized Apple resellers. The booster pack lets you take thousands of pictures with your QuickTake 100 camera.
