2 Tips before you start taking pictures Tips before you start taking pictures Your pictures are almost guaranteed to come out well just by setting the mode dial to h and pressing the shutter button. But occasionally, you can’t focus on your subject, the subject is too dark, or the picture doesn’t come out the way you want. Just knowing which button to press or which setting to change can help you solve these problems.
Turning the camera on and off Press the POWER button to turn the camera on. POWER button Mode dial Tips before you start taking pictures 2 Monitor (Turning the camera on Set the mode dial to any mode, and press the POWER button. • The monitor turns on. • When you turn on the camera in shooting mode, the lens extends. (Turning the camera off Press the POWER button. • The monitor turns off. • The lens retracts.
When to use the monitor and viewfinder You can take pictures using either the monitor or the viewfinder. Use the one that is most apt for the situation. To turn the monitor on or off, press the DISP./GUIDE button several times. g“Direct buttons” (P. 12) Monitor Camera movement occurs easily and subjects may be difficult to Disadvantages see in bright/dark places. The monitor uses more battery power than the viewfinder.
If the correct focus cannot be obtained The camera automatically detects the focus target in the frame. The level of contrast is one of the criteria it uses to detect the subject. The camera may fail to determine subjects with lower contrast than the surroundings or with an area of extremely strong contrast in the frame. If this happens, the simplest solution is to use the focus lock.
If the correct focus cannot be obtained TIPS Note • Press the shutter button gently. If it is pressed forcefully, the camera may move causing the picture to blur. • Never remove the batteries or disconnect the AC adapter while the orange lamp on the side of the viewfinder is blinking. Doing so could destroy stored pictures and prevent storage of pictures you have just taken. • Recorded pictures are saved in the camera regardless of whether the camera is turned off or the batteries are replaced or removed.
Record mode You can select a record mode in which to take pictures or shoot movies. Select the best record mode for your purpose (printing, editing on a computer, website editing, etc.). For information on the image sizes for each record mode and the number of storable still pictures/movie recording time, see the tables on P. 28 to 29. Still picture record modes Still pictures (other than those in raw data format) are recorded in JPEG format.
Record mode Image size The number of pixels (horizontal × vertical) used when saving an image. You can save your pictures at a large image size to get clearer prints. However, as the image size increases, the file size (data size) also increases, which decreases the number of pictures that can be saved. 2 Compression (Special record modes Record mode RAW 3:2 (SHQ, HQ) Features Image size Raw uncompressed data.

To record pictures in JPEG format you can select [SHQ], [HQ], [SQ1] or [SQ2] for the record mode, but you cannot select the image size. Pictures are recorded in the size currently set for each record mode. 3 In the [K] screen, select [RAW], and press q. Select a JPEG duplicate setting from [OFF], [SHQ], [HQ], [SQ1] and [SQ2].
The internal memory and memory card Pictures taken are recorded in the internal memory. Pictures can also be recorded to an optional xD-Picture Card (“card”). The card can be used to record more pictures than is possible with the internal memory of the camera. A card can be convenient when taking many pictures while on a trip. Tips before you start taking pictures 2 (Internal memory basics The internal memory is the camera’s media for recording pictures, similar to film in a film camera.
The internal memory and memory card The card The card is a medium for recording pictures, similar to film in a film camera. Pictures recorded to the card can be easily erased on the camera or processed using a computer. The number of recordable pictures can be increased by using a card with a larger capacity. Index area You can use this space to write the contents of the card. 2 Contact area The part where the data transferred from the camera enters the card.
The internal memory and memory card (Inserting the card 3 Tips before you start taking pictures 2 Orient the card as shown, and insert it into the card slot as shown in the illustration. • Insert the card straight in. • Insert the card until it clicks into place. • Inserting the card in the wrong direction or at an angle may damage the contacts and prevent the card from being removed. • The card may not record properly if it is not inserted all the way in.
3 Basic shooting functions Basic shooting functions A professional photographer adjusts the exposure to the optimal setting, chooses the best focusing method and even selects the type of film according to the subject. With a digital camera, you don’t need to learn how to make difficult settings.
Selecting a scene mode according to the situation This function allows you to select from 25 f modes set to the shooting conditions. When you select a scene according to the situation or conditions, the camera automatically selects the optimal settings. (f mode J D image stabilization Basic shooting functions 3 Reduces blurring in images caused by shaking or motion when the image was taken. Photos shot in dark areas may appear grainy. B Portrait Suitable for taking portrait pictures.

Zooming in on your subject Using the zoom You can zoom in on your subject using the optical zoom and digital zoom. With the optical zoom, the image is enlarged on the CCD when the lens magnification is changed, and the image is formed by all the CCD pixels. With the digital zoom, the area at the center of the image captured by the CCD is cropped and enlarged. Because digital zoom takes a small area of the picture and enlarges it, the picture becomes grainy as the digital zoom magnification increases.
Zooming in on your subject Note • Taking a picture with the digital zoom may cause the picture to appear grainy. Using macro/super macro mode Focusing is usually slow when you get close to a subject (wide-angle: 20 cm/7.9 in. to 50 cm/19.7 in.; telephoto: 30 cm/11.8 in. to 50 cm/19.7 in.). However, in macro mode focusing is performed quickly. % This mode lets you shoot from as close as 20 cm/7.9 in. to your subject (when the optical zoom is at the greatest wide-angle).
Flash shooting Select the flash mode best suited to the light conditions and the effect you want to achieve. Flash working range W (max.): Approx. 0.4 m to 3.8 m (1.3 ft. to 12.5 ft.) T (max.): Approx. 0.4 m to 2.2 m (1.3 ft. to 7.2 ft.) Auto-flash (No indication) The flash fires automatically in low light or backlight conditions. Basic shooting functions 3 Red-eye reduction flash (!) The light from the flash may make the subject’s eyes appear red in the picture.
Flash shooting Note • Since a slow shutter speed is automatically selected in low light situations when in the flash off mode, the use of a tripod is recommended to prevent your pictures from being blurred by camera movement. 1 1/200 F4.0 g“Direct buttons” (P. 12) • After 2 seconds of non-operation, the selection is set and the mode selection screen disappears. • Each time you press # (flash mode), the flash mode changes in the following order.

4 Advanced shooting functions Letting the camera select the optimal settings is simple and easy, but if you want, you can be a lot more creative. Now that you have mastered basic operation, you can start enjoying your camera’s more advanced functions. You can adjust the shooting conditions manually and try out different effects.
Changing the aperture value for shooting pictures This function allows you to set the aperture manually. The camera sets the shutter speed automatically. By decreasing the aperture value (F-number), the camera will focus within a smaller range, producing a picture with a blurred background. Increasing the value forces the camera to focus over a wider range, resulting in increased depth of field in which both the subject and the background are in focus.
Changing the shutter speed for shooting pictures This function allows you to set the shutter speed manually. The camera sets the aperture automatically. Set the shutter speed according to the subject and the type of effect you want. Setting a fast shutter speed lets you capture fast-moving action as though it was stopped in motion. Advanced shooting functions 4 1 Setting a slow shutter speed blurs a moving subject, giving the impression of movement. Press sr to set the shutter speed.
Changing the aperture value and shutter speed for shooting pictures This mode gives you more creative control, allowing you to set the aperture and shutter speed manually. 1 Adjust the aperture and shutter speed. p Exposure differential Aperture value Shutter speed TIPS To take long exposure (bulb) shots 1 Press r and set shutter speed to BULB. 2 The shutter remains open as long as the shutter button is pressed. • The maximum time that it can remain open is 8 minutes.
Focusing applications AF mode (iESP/SPOT/AREA) This function allows you to select how the camera focuses on your subject. iESP SPOT AREA The camera determines which subject within the screen to focus on. Even when the subject is not in the center of the screen, focusing is possible. Focus selection is based on the subject within the AF target mark. Move the AF target mark to select the area you want to focus on to take a picture.

Press the shutter button fully. • The AE lock is automatically canceled when the picture is taken.
Changing ISO sensitivity (ISO) The higher the ISO, the better the camera’s light sensitivity and ability to shoot in low light conditions. However, high sensitivity introduces noise into the resulting picture, which may give it a grainy appearance. AUTO 64/100/200/ 400/800 Sensitivity is automatically adjusted according to the conditions of the subject. With a low ISO setting, you can shoot clear, sharp images in daylight. With a high ISO setting, you can shoot in dark places.
Adjusting the white balance TIPS • Often, bright subjects (such as snow) turn out darker than their natural colors. Adjust toward [+] to make these subjects closer to their real shades. To prevent the picture from getting brighter, adjust toward [–] when shooting dark subjects. Note • Sometimes, using the flash may not produce the brightness (exposure) that was intended. • The effects of exposure compensation may be limited when the surroundings of the subject are extremely bright or dark.

Adjusting the white balance Note • White balance may not be effective under some special light sources. • When taking pictures with the white balance on a setting other than [AUTO], play back the picture and check the colors on the monitor. • When the flash is fired with a white balance setting other than [AUTO], colors may appear different in the resulting picture from the colors you see on the monitor.
Adjusting a picture for recording (SHARPNESS/ CONTRAST/SATURATION) These functions adjust the sharpness, contrast and color strength of a picture. 4 Top menu [MODE MENU] [PICTURE] [CONTRAST] / [SATURATION] Advanced shooting functions SATURATION This function adjusts the sharpness of the picture. This function adjusts the contrast of the picture. For example, you can make pictures with marked differences in light and shadow softer, and those with less differences more vivid.
Reducing picture noise (NOISE REDUCTION) When shooting in dark places, shutter speeds become slower as there is less light focused on the CCD. During long exposures, signals are generated by parts of the CCD where no light is focused and are recorded on the picture as noise. When [NOISE REDUCTION] is set to [ON], the camera automatically reduces this noise to produce clearer pictures. ON OFF Noise is not reduced. Noise may be conspicuous at slow shutter speeds.
