CHARGE lamp Charging time to a wall outlet (wall socket) Nickel-Metal Hydride battery Charging time NH-AA-DA × 2 Approx. 6 hours (supplied) 2 Power cord (Mains lead) , Connect the battery charger to a wall outlet (wall socket) using the power cord (mains lead). Charging starts, and the CHARGE lamp lights. When the CHARGE lamp goes out, charging is finished. For details on the battery charger, see page 121.
Inserting the batteries Getting started • To use up the batteries completely, put the camera in the slide show mode (page 65) and leave it that way until the batteries are used up. • Do not peel off the external seals or damage the batteries. Never use batteries from which the seals have been partially or completely removed, or batteries that have been split in any way. These may cause leakage, explosion, or heat-up of the battery, and personal scald or injury may be caused.
Battery remaining indicator (When using the Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries) As the battery power decreases with use, the battery remaining indicator displays the amount of power remaining using the following symbols. 3 , Close the battery/“Memory Stick” cover. Close the battery/“Memory Stick” cover while holding the batteries in. The cover is closed when it clicks. To remove the batteries Turn up the battery/“Memory Stick” cover, open the battery/“Memory Stick” cover, then remove the batteries.
The tables show the approximate number of images and the battery life that can be recorded/ viewed when you shoot images in normal mode with fully charged batteries at a temperature of 25°C (77°F). The numbers of images that can be recorded or viewed take into account changing the supplied “Memory Stick” as necessary. Note that the actual numbers may be less than indicated depending on the conditions of use.
Using the AC Adaptor • The number of images and the battery life that can be recorded/viewed are decreased under the following conditions: – The surrounding temperature is low – The flash is used – The camera has been turned on and off many times – The zoom is used frequently – [LCD Backlight] is set to [Bright] in the SET UP settings – [AF Mode] is set to [Monitor] – The battery power is low.

Using the self-timer • When shooting in macro mode, use the LCD screen. If you use the finder, the limits of what you see and what you actually shoot may be different. This is due to the parallax effect. • When shooting in macro mode, the focus range is very narrow and you may not be able to focus on the whole of the subject. • When shooting in macro mode, the focus adjustment becomes slower to accurately focus on a close subject.
Selecting a flash mode VGA 101 98 , Set the mode dial to , and press v ( ) on the control button repeatedly to select a flash mode. The flash mode has the following features. No indicator (Auto): The camera decides to use the flash based on lighting conditions. The flash will be used when there is not enough light or when shooting a subject against a light source. (Forced flash): The flash will be used regardless of the amount of ambient light.

Advanced still image shooting Choosing an auto focus method You can set the AF range finder frame and the AF mode. AF range finder frame The AF range finder frame selects the focus position according to the subject position and size. AF Mode Choosing a focus range finder frame – AF range finder Multipoint AF ( When you press and hold the shutter button halfway down, and the focus is adjusted, the color of the AF range finder frame changes from white to green.
• When you are shooting movies and you choose Multipoint AF, the distance to the center of the LCD screen is estimated as an average, so the AF works even with a certain amount of vibration. The AF range finder frame indicator is . Center AF automatically focus only on selected frame, so this is convenient when you want to focus only on what you aim at. • When you use the digital zoom or AF illuminator, priority AF movement is given to subjects in or near the center of the frame.
Shooting techniques When shooting with the subject at the edge of the frame, or when using Center AF, the camera may focus on the center instead of on the subject at the edge of the frame. In a case like this, use AF lock to focus on the subject, and then recompose the picture and shoot. Compose the shot so that the subject is centered in the AF range finder frame, and press the shutter button halfway down.

Exposure Close (larger F value) Overexposure In addition to the focus and other settings, it is also important to adjust the exposure in order to take beautiful pictures. Exposure is the amount of light that the CCD of the digital still camera is able to receive. This value changes according to the combination of aperture and shutter speed. When the amount of light is larger, the image becomes brighter (whitish), and when it is smaller, the image becomes darker.
d Select the desired exposure adjustment value with v/V. MENU Adjusting the exposure Make your adjustment while confirming the brightness of the background of the subject on the LCD screen. Control button – EV adjustment Mode dial You can manually shift the exposure value determined by the camera. Use this mode when you do not get the proper exposure, for instance, the subject and its background have high contrast (light and dark). The value can be set a range from +2.0EV to –2.
Displaying a histogram Number of pixels A histogram is a graph showing the brightness of an image. The horizontal axis shows the brightness, and the vertical axis shows the number of pixels. The graph display indicates a dark image when skewed to the left side, and a bright image when skewed to the right side. The histogram is a useful reference for checking the exposure during recording and playback when the LCD screen is hard to be seen.
Shooting techniques While shooting images, the camera automatically determines the exposure. When shooting a whitish overall image such as a backlit subject or a snowy scene, the camera judges that the subject is bright and may set a darker exposure for the image. In such cases, adjustment of the exposure in the + plus direction is effective. When shooting a darker overall image, the camera judges that the subject is dark and may set a brighter exposure for the image.
