2 2Your camera This chapter presents an overview of the camera buttons, displays, and hardware features.
Ready light Viewfinder Zoom Display button Menu button Color LCD screen Audio LED Audio volume Softkeys Audio Record External flash Video and Audio Out AC adapter Mode dial Serial/USB Tripod socket Product information data plate 2-2 Four-way controller
Softkeys Your camera has three “softkeys.” A softkey is a button whose function changes according to what is displayed above it. For example, in the Capture mode, the following screen can be displayed: Softkeys In this case, pressing the left softkey enters the Capture Preferences. When presented with a different screen display, pressing this softkey can perform an entirely different function.
Your status LCD A display on the top of the camera shows the current settings. The following subsections briefly describe each entry. For information on how to define settings through the Capture mode menus or the Scroll and Select buttons, refer to Chapter 3. ☞ The camera must be turned on and in the Capture mode to view and interact with this display.
Exposure compensation ☞ In very large rooms, under low light, you may achieve better results by turning the flash off entirely, or by utilizing the flash sync capability with an external flash unit. While in Capture mode, the camera exposure can be adjusted from -2.0 to +2.0 exposure value (EV) in 0.5 EV increments. If your pictures are: ✔ correctly exposed—maintain the AUTO default setting, which will automatically choose the correct exposure for the lighting conditions.
Quality You can set your camera to take pictures with a Good, Better, or Best Quality setting. The Quality setting indicates how much the picture is compressed to save space on the memory card. For advanced users, a Super quality is also available. When taking pictures, you can switch freely among the three settings. The number of pictures the camera is able to store will vary accordingly.
Understanding quality and resolution Keep in mind that with your camera you’re generally going to get beautiful digital pictures. But based on two factors, resolution and compression, some pictures will be of a higher quality than others. Instead of film, the camera places your pictures on a memory card. These pictures are made up of pixels. The more pixels you have (or the better the resolution) the more space you use on the memory card. To save space, you can compress each picture.
Batteries The battery power icon changes automatically. It is a display-only icon, you cannot select or change it. Full—indicates the batteries are fully charged. Low—indicates the batteries need to be replaced. Blinking—indicates the batteries are insufficient to run the camera and need to be replaced. ☞ Battery life is rapidly reduced when Preview or Review modes are in use. Pictures stored on the memory card are not lost if the batteries are depleted. Your camera uses four AA batteries for power.
Manual mode The camera supports two advanced Capture modes, the external flash and the long-time modes. External flash mode—disables the built-in flash and uses the external flash sync to provide flash. You can set the camera aperture setting (or f/stop). The default aperture setting is 5.6. Long-time mode—disables the flash since a long exposure time is necessary to obtain a proper exposure within the current ambient lighting environment. You set the exposure time between 0.5 and 16 seconds in 0.
Removable memory card The DC265 camera uses a removable memory card, also referred to as a CompactFlash or KODAK Picture card, for storing your pictures. You can erase the picture data on the card and then reuse it. To reformat a memory card, see “Format card preferences” on page 4-6. The removable memory card contains no moving parts. It stores information and retains it when the card is removed from your camera or until you either delete it or reformat the card.
Removing and inserting the memory card Although your camera can’t take pictures without the memory card, you can remove the card to use in another camera or to place in your computer. To remove the memory card: 1 Open the memory card door. 2 Flip the memory card Release button so it protrudes out from the side of the camera. WARNING: Do not press the Release button if the red LED under the button is on or blinking. Ejecting the card while this LED is on can result in the loss of all data on the card.
Power management You can use batteries or an AC adapter to power your camera. To conserve power usage, the camera has a sleep mode. Sleep mode After a specified period of inactivity, the camera enters sleep mode by turning the color LCD off. You use the Capture Preferences menu to set the amount of time before entering sleep mode. Refer to setting the Sleep Time-out preference on page 3-11. After 10 minutes of inactivity, the camera turns itself off.
Using the battery charger To ensure that you have a constant supply of freshly charged batteries, a battery charger and four AA Ni-MH rechargeable batteries are provided with some cameras. These batteries need to be charged before using and take up to eight hours to fully charge. So you are always prepared to take pictures, it is good idea to have one set of rechargeable batteries in the camera, and an extra set charged, ready for use.
Using your batteries ✔ Kodak recommends KODAK Photolife AA Alkaline Batteries, or KODAK Photolife AA Ni-MH Rechargeable Batteries for use in the DC265 camera. ✔ Remove the batteries when the camera is stored for extended periods of time. ✔ Always follow your battery manufacturer’s directions fully. Do not attempt to disassemble, short circuit, or subject the battery to high temperature or fire. ✔ Your camera has been designed to operate correctly using a variety of AA-size batteries currently available.
✔ When disposing of batteries, follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Kodak suggests customers take advantage of any community battery recycling programs that may exist in your area. Contact your local waste remover or recycler for details. Caution Hot Surface ✔ When removing batteries, allow to cool before touching, since the batteries may be hot. Battery Charger Tips 2 Your camera For charging Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries only, with a maximum of 4 cells, and a maximum charge of 1450mAH.
Installing the batteries 1 Open the battery door. 2 Slide the inside battery cover toward the back of the camera and then lift it away from the camera. 3 Insert the batteries as indicated on the battery cover. 4 Close and lock the inside battery cover and close the battery door. Remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for an extended period of time. This will extend the battery life and prevent camera damage from battery leaks or corrosion.

5 5Connecting your camera to your computer 5 Connecting A first step to using your digital pictures on your computer is to connect your camera to your computer. The camera can communicate with your computer using: ✔ an RS-232 serial connection ✔ a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connection ✔ an IrDA (infrared) transceiver While in Connect mode, the camera is controlled by the computer. Except for the Mode dial, Power, Shutter, and Zoom buttons, all other camera buttons are disabled.
Which connection? The connection you use depends on several variables. You need to determine which connections are available with your Operating System, which of these connections are physically supported by your computer, and then you can make the connection. ☞ After making the connections, if you experience problems, refer to the troubleshooting guide located on the CD. Determining which connections are available This section guides you through what connections are available with your operating system.
The two types of connections available with WINDOWS 95B are: ✔ Serial—see “Checking for RS-232 serial support” on page 5-5, then see “Using a serial cable to connect” on page 5-7. ✔ IrDA (infrared)—see “Checking for IrDA transceiver support” on page 56, and then “Using an infrared transceiver to connect” on page 5-8. ☞ The IrDA driver for WINDOWS 95B is either preloaded on your system or available on your original diskettes or CD. USB is not fully supported on WINDOWS 95.
Determining what your computer supports Checking for USB support The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a relatively new method for your camera to communicate with the PC. A USB connection is faster than an RS-232 serial connection, increasing the maximum data transfer rate to 12 Mb/sec. USB requires special computer hardware and software features, including a USB enabled motherboard, USB connections, and WINDOWS 98. Most computers manufactured prior to January 1997 do not meet these requirements.
Checking for RS-232 serial support Although not as fast (maximum data transfer rate of 115 kb per second), an RS232 serial connection is supported by the vast majority of computers. The serial port option is available on WINDOWS 95, WINDOWS 98, and WINDOWS NT 4.0 Operating Systems. RS-232 connectors are the standard ports located on the back of the computer. They are usually labeled A and B.
Checking for IrDA transceiver support Infrared is invisible light that the camera uses to transfer pictures without cables or wires. Like your television remote, the camera requires a clear line of sight between its IrDA transceiver and the IrDA port on the computer.
13 Verify that you have an internal or external IrDA transceiver connected to your computer. Check your computer hardware manual for information on the IrDA transceiver location. ☞ If you are using the infrared transceiver to connect to the computer and the camera automatically turns off because of inactivity, you need to press Power to turn the camera back on. For more information, go to www/irda.org and select “Using IrDA.
Using a USB cable to connect The camera can connect to a computer using the USB cable included in your camera package. To connect to your computer with a USB cable: 1 Plug one end of the USB cable into the USB port. 2 Open the serial/USB port on the side of your camera. 3 Plug the other end of the USB cable into the serial port. 4 Set the Mode dial to Connect. 5 Turn on the camera. If you get a message on your computer stating that you are not connected, refer to the USB.
6 6Setting camera properties Camera properties software lets you program your digital camera through a graphical interface on your computer. You can set these properties before you use your camera to take pictures, or you can use the camera default properties. To use the default for each setting, click the Defaults button on the Camera Properties screen.
Finding camera properties software You can get to the Camera Properties software in a number of ways: ✔ Double-click the DC265 Camera Properties icon on your desktop ✔ Select Properties from the Mounter Software screen ✔ Select Camera Properties from the Digital Access (TWAIN Acquire) software application window ✔ Select Tools from the KODAK Picture Easy Software 3.
