Preventing

Malfunctions
Avoid Strong Magnetic Fields
Never place the camera in close proximity to electric motors or other equipment
generating strong electromagnetic fields. Exposure to strong magnetic fields may
cause malfunctions or corrupt image data.
Avoid Condensation Related Problems
Moving the equipment rapidly between hot and cold temperatures may cause
condensation (water droplets) to form on its external and internal surfaces. You can
avoid this by placing the equipment in an airtight, resealable plastic bag and letting it
adjust to temperature changes slowly before removing it from the bag.
If Condensation Forms Inside the Camera
Stop using the camera immediately if you detect condensation. Continued use may
damage the equipment. Remove the CF card, and battery or a household power
source, from the camera and wait until the moisture evaporates completely before
resuming use.

This is a lithium ion battery pack so there is no need to completely use or discharge
it before recharging. It can be recharged at any time. However, sin since the maximum
number of charge cycle is approximately 300 times (buttery buttery life), you are
recommended to only charge the battery pack ack after having discharged it

* The Compact Power
P Adapter CA-560 (included with the camera) or the separately sold Compact
Power Adapter CA-570 is required. (The Compact Power Adapter CA-570 cannot be used to power
the camera from a household power source)
Battery Pack BP-512 (optional) can also be used in this camera.

Battery Pack Handling Precautions


Keep the battery pack and camera terminals ( ) clean at all times. Dirty
terminals may cause a poor contact between the battery pack and camera. Polish the
terminals with a tissue or a dry cloth before charging or using the battery pack.
Do not cover the compact power adapter with anything, such as a tablecloth, cushion
or blanket, when it is charging. Heat will build up internally and possibly lead to fire.
Do not charge batteries other than Battery Pack BP-511 or Battery Pack BP-512
with the supplied equipment. It could damage the camera.

17
Charging the Battery Pack (continued)

The battery pack continues to discharge a small amount when left in the camera
even with the power turned off. This shortens the battery life. Remove it from
the camera, attach the supplied terminal cover and store it at normal
temperature (30 C / 86 F or less) in a dry place. Charge it before efo use.
Do not allow any metal objects such as keyrings to touch h the + and -
terminals (Fig. A), as this can damage the batteryy pa pack. To carry th

The camera consumes the battery charge when the power is on even when a
function is not being used. To conserve the battery charge, be particularly
attentive in turning the camera off.
Although the battery packs maximum operating range is 0 to 40 C (32 to 104
F), the optimal range is 10 to 30 C (50 to 86 F). At cold temperatures, such as
those experienced when skiing, performance will temporarily decline, reducing
the usable time before recharging.
If the usable time of a battery pack diminishes substantially even when fully
charged, it should be replaced.

18
Installing the Battery Pack
Install Battery Pack BP-511 (supplied) into the camera as follows. Use the Compact
Power Adapter CA-560 to power the camera for extended periods (p. 21).

1 Turn off the camera (p. 29).

When the indicator on the right side of the viewfinder blinks green, the camera is
writing, reading, erasing or transmitting an image to or from the card. Do not
perform the following, or image data may be lost or corrupted:
- Do not shake the camera.
- Do not turn off the power or open the battery cover or the CF card slot cover.
Please note that CF cards formatted in or edited with computers, other
manufacturers cameras or application programs may not operate correctly in the

22
CF Card Handling Precautions
CF cards are high-precision electronic devices. Do not bend, force, or subject
them to shocks or vibration.
Do not attempt to disassemble or alter a CF card.
Moving a CF card rapidly between temperature extremes may cause condensation
to form in the card, leading to potential malfunctions. To avoid condensation
formation, place the CF card in a sealed plastic bag before moving g it into a
t
different temperature zone and allow it to adjust slowly to the new temperature. If
condensation forms on the CF card, put it aside until till tthe water

Microdrives are a recording medium with a hard disk. Their merits are a large
capacity and a loww price per megabyte of capacity. However, they can be more

About the Histogram
The histogram is a graph that allows you to judge the brightness of the recorded
image. The greater the bias toward the left in the graph, the darker the image. The
greater the bias toward to the right, the brighter the image. If the image is dark,
adjust the exposure compensation to a positive number. Similarly, adjust the
exposure compensation to a negative number if the image is bright (p. 85).

Image Seen in Viewfinder vs. Recorded Image


Please note that the actual image may differ from the image seen in the optical
viewfinder due to the physical separation between the viewfinder and lens. This is
called the parallax phenomenon and is more noticeable the closer the subject is to
the lens. In some cases, portions of images shot up close that appear in the
viewfinder will not appear in the recorded image. Please use the LCD monitor to
shoot images up close.
Shooting with an Off-Center AF Frame Selected
When setting the AF frame to the desired position to shoot an image, please use the
LCD monitor (See Selecting an AF Frame, p. 82).

An example of this function is to record Say cheese as a self-timer sound so the


camera will replay this sound 2 seconds before the photo is taken. You could also
record cheerful music to bring out the natural smiles of your subjects, or so they
can strike a pose fitting the music. In these ways you can customize your camera by
creating and adding new My Camera settings.

See the supplied Software Starter Guide for more information on creating and

Changing the File Format
The recording file format can be switched to the RAW format before shooting the
image.
With the standard JPEG file format, the camera processes images after capturing
them to produce optimal results. The JPEG format compresses images ma so that more
can be stored on a single CF card. However, the compression sion
ion is irre
irreversible,
meaning that the original image data cannot be recovered ecovered after pr

Setting the Shutter Speed
When you set the shutter speed in the shutter speed-priority AE mode, the camera
automatically selects an aperture value to match the brightness. Faster shutter
speeds allow you to catch an instantaneous image of a moving subject while
slower speeds create a flowing effect and allow you to shoot without

If the aperture value is shown in red in the LCD monitor, the image is under
exposed (insufficient light) or overexposed (too much light). Adjust the shutter
speed using the main dial until the aperture value display turns to white.
The nature of CCD image sensors is such that noise in the recorded image
increases at slow shutter speeds. This camera, however, applies special processing
to images shot at shutter speeds slower than 1.3 seconds to eliminate the noise,
thereby producing high-quality images. Nevertheless, a certain amount of
processing time may be required before the next image can be shot.

Setting the Aperture
When you set the aperture in the aperture-priority AE mode, the camera
automatically selects a shutter speed to match the brightness. Selecting a lower
aperture value (opening the aperture) allows you to fade the background and
create a beautiful portrait. A higher aperture value (closing it) brings
gs the entire
range from foreground to background into focus. The largerr the ape aperture value,
the greater the range of the image brought into clear arr ffocus

This function may not operate correctly when the camera is pointed straight up or
down. Check that the arrow is pointed in the right direction and if it is not, then
set the Auto Rotate function to Off.
Even if the Auto Rotate function is set to on, the orientation of images
downloaded to a computer will depend upon software used to download the
images.

When the camera is held on end to shoot, the Intelligent Orientation sensor
judges the upper end to be up and the lower end to be down. It then
regulates the optimal white balance and exposure for vertical photography. This
function operates regardless of the On/Off status of the Auto Rotate function.
When changing the cameras orientation between the horizontal and vertical
positions, you may hear noise coming from the orientation detection mechanism.
This is not a malfunction.

Appendix

Since the image seen in the viewfinder does not change when a conversion lens is
installed, use the LCD monitor to compose images.
Please note that the images will not merge properly with the PhotoStitch program
on a computer when they are shot in mode with a conversion or close-up lens.
To protect the conversion lenses, hold them with one hand while you screw them
on the camera with the other hand.
Completely remove all dust and dirt from conversion lenses with a lens blower
brush before use. The camera may focus on any dirt that remains.
Exercise due caution when handling the conversion lenses since it is easy to dirty
them with fingerprints.
