USING YOUR DIGITAL DISK CAMERA SAFELY AND CORRECTLY

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The following safety precautions are to ensure the safe and correct use of your digital disk camera and prevent injury to the user and others, and property damage. Be sure to read carefully all the precautions listed here before using your digital disk camera.

LI-ION BATTERY PACK (UR-121)

DANGER

Your digital disk camera uses a Li-ion battery pack (part number UR-121).

■If you notice leaking electrolyte, discoloration, deformation, damaged portions, strange odors, or other abnormality, immediately remove from the device, stop use, and move away from any open flames

• If you continue use under these conditions, it may cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption of electrolyte, or smoking.
• If electrolyte is leaking and a flame or spark occurs nearby, the electrolyte in the battery pack may ignite causing a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption of electrolyte, or smoking.

■Do not disassemble or modify

●The battery pack is equipped with built-in safety mechanisms and protection devices to prevent dangerous accidents. Disassembling, modifying, soldering, or other similar operations on the battery pack may render these mechanisms or

devices dysfunctional and cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, or an eruption or leakage of electrolyte.

■Do not short the positive (+) and negative (-) poles with a metal pin or other object and do not carry or store together with a metal necklace or other object

- If the poles are shorted, a large amount of current will flow, which may cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating. Also, the metal object shorting the poles together will become excessively hot. When carrying or storing the battery pack, always place it in the supplied protective cover.

■Do not place in a fire or expose to excessive heat

●The insulation may melt or the gas venting valves and safety mechanisms may fail allowing the electrolyte to ignite and cause a fire or rupturing of the battery pack.

■Do not drop or subject to strong impacts

●Strong impacts may damage the safety mechanisms and protective devices and cause a chemical reaction within the battery pack that may cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating.

■Do not submerge in water or wet the terminals

●This will cause corrosion and damage the safety mechanisms and protective devices leading to a chemical reaction within the battery pack that may cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating.

■Cautions concerning the locations of use and storage

●Ambient temperature during use or charging: 0 to 40°C

Do not use, recharge, store, or leave near an open flame, in a car under the hot sun, or in any other hot location (60°C or higher).

Extreme heat will damage the safety mechanisms and protective devices and cause a chemical reaction within the battery pack that may cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating. If the safety mechanisms and protective devices are damaged, the battery pack will become unusable.

If subject to extremely hot or cold conditions, the capacity of the battery pack will decrease and its usable life will be shortened. Use in ambient temperatures of 20 ± 5^ is recommended. Ambient temperatures below 10^ will cause the operation time to become drastically shortened.

- Ambient temperature during storage: - 20 to 30^ C

When storing the battery pack, remove it from the device, insert it into its protective cover, and store it in a location between -20^ and 30^ .

●Ambient humidity: 45 to 85% RH

■Only recharge using the supplied NC-LSC04WSA AC adapter/charger

- If recharged using a different charger, an excessive charging condition or abnormal electrical currents may result and cause a chemical reaction within the battery

pack. This may cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating.

■Only use with the specified devices

- If used with devices not specified for its use, abnormal electrical currents may result and cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating.

■Do not remove or damage the covering

- Removing the covering, piercing with a nail, hitting with a hammer, stepping on, or damaging the cover in any way may cause an internal short and result in a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating.

■If you come in contact with electrolyte, immediately rinse with water

- If the electrolyte gets into your eyes, you risk losing your eyesight. Do not rub your eyes, wash them immediately with clean water, and seek medical attention

right away. If electrolyte gets on your skin or clothing, it may cause irritation. Immediately wash with clean water.

■Always insert orientated as indicated

- When inserting the battery pack in the AC adapter/charger or digital disk camera, make sure the positive (+) and negative (−) terminals are oriented correctly as indicated.

- If the battery pack is used or charged with the polarity of the terminals reversed, an abnormal chemical reaction will occur during charging and an abnormal current will flow during use. Both may cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating.

WARNING

■If charging is not completed even after the specified time elapses, stop the charging immediately

- If charging is continued, it may cause a fire, rupturing of the battery pack, eruption or leakage of electrolyte, or overheating.

■Keep out of the reach of children

●The battery pack is not a toy and an unforeseeable accident may occur if handled by children.

CAUTION

■Recharge before use

Cautions when handling the iD PHOTO disk

- Avoid storing or using the iD PHOTO disk in places similar to those given below for they may cause damage or the disk to malfunction.

• Places in direct sunlight or near heat generating equipment
• Places extremely cold
• Places with excessive dust, dirt, or humidity
• Places subject to vibrations
• Places with drastic humidity and temperature changes
• Places with excessive static electricity or electromagnetic noise

- Do not place the iD PHOTO disk near magnets or in strong magnetic fields.

- Do not disassemble the iD PHOTO disk.

- Do not allow the iD PHOTO disk to get wet.

- Wipe away dust or dirt with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use benzene, thinner, or other solvents.

- Do not use in locations with drastic temperature changes or in locations with a high humidity. These locations are subject to condensation. If condensation occurs in the iD PHOTO disk, reading from and writing to the disk may become impossible.

• Before using an iD PHOTO disk for the first time, be sure to format it with your digital disk camera first (see pages 155, 157).
• Before capturing important images, it is recommended to first try capturing images to make sure that the digital disk camera works properly. Also, to further ensure that images are captured properly, perform a full format beforehand (see page 157).
• Attach the labels carefully so that they will not come off accidentally. If the label comes off during insertion or removal of the iD PHOTO disk from the digital disk camera, it may cause damage (see page 18).
• Do not allow dirt or other foreign particles to enter the shutter portion of the iD PHOTO disk. Wipe away any dirt with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use benzene, thinner, or other solvents.

Cautions when carrying or storing the iD PHOTO disk

● Always remove the iD PHOTO disk from the digital disk camera after you have finished using it.
- When not using the iD PHOTO disk, always keep it in its protective case.
- Do not carry the iD PHOTO disk inside trouser pockets, as it may become damaged when you sit down or make other movements that may apply forces.

Making sure that data on your iD PHOTO disk does not become erased

Move the write-protect tab to the "O-m" mark.

• Move the tab using a sharp item such as the end of a ballpoint pen.
• Saving (adding data such as capturing images or recording), deleting, and formatting will become impossible.
• To make it possible to perform saving, deleting, and formatting again, move the tab back to its original position.

Write protected	Write enabled

■Cautions concerning data storage

• The iD PHOTO disk is a highly reliable storage device, however it is recommended that any important data be copied onto a separate media (such as a floppy disk, hard disk, or MO disk) for added safety against unforeseeable accidents.
• Stored data may be lost (or corrupted) in cases such as those listed below. Sanyo Electric will not be held responsible for any damage or lost profits arising from the loss of data.
• If the iD PHOTO disk is used incorrectly.
• If the iD PHOTO disk is not inserted correctly into the digital disk camera.
• If the iD PHOTO disk is subjected to electrical or mechanical shocks or other forces.
• If the iD PHOTO disk is removed from the digital disk camera or if the digital disk camera is turned off during reading or writing operations.
• If the iD PHOTO disk has reached the end of its usable life.

■Cautions concerning vibrations

- If the digital disk camera is subject to vibrations or shocks during image capturing or the playing back of data, the data may not be properly read or written. Therefore always be careful not subject the digital disk camera to vibrations or shocks during use.

■Cautions concerning rises in temperature

NOTE

• The amount of time a fully charged battery pack will last will depend on factors such as your use of the flash, your use of the LCD monitor, the ambient temperature, and other shooting conditions. For ambient temperatures below 10°C, the rate the charge decreases is especially fast. Therefore, even the same battery pack may allow different number of images to be captured under different conditions.
• Before using the digital disk camera for important situations (e.g. wedding or when traveling) or in cold environments, it is recommended to take a spare battery pack with you as a precaution.
• For ambient temperatures below 10°C, it is recommended to keep the battery pack warm by placing it in your pocket or some other warm location.

HELP

If the LCD monitor goes off suddenly

- When using the LCD monitor with the battery pack charge about half full, the LCD monitor may turn off momentarily after an image is captured. This is to allow a quick recharge of the flash. When the flash has been recharged, the LCD monitor will come back on automatically.

Checking the remaining disk space

1 Insert the disk (see page 30).

2 Turn on the digital disk camera (see page 32).

●The remaining space in the disk is displayed in the mode display panel.
- The remaining disk space is shown in one of three ways. See “Setting the remaining disk space display format” on page 125 to set the way you want it to be displayed.
- For more information on the remaining number of images and recording time, see page 172.

SETTING THE DATE AND TIME

Your digital disk camera is equipped with a clock function that will record the date and time that any image, video clip, or audio recording is made so that it can be displayed during playback. An internal battery backs up the clock setting so that it is retained even when the battery pack is removed.

Caution

• Even if the battery pack is removed and the digital disk camera is not connected to an AC power supply, the clock setting will be retained by an internal backup battery (see page 23). However, if this is continued for a long period of time, this battery will lose its charge and the clock and other camera settings will return to their initial settings (00:00, January 1, 2001). If you have not used your digital disk camera for a long time, make sure to first check the clock setting.
• When the clock setting is in its initial setting, the timer mark (①) in the mode display panel will flash. When the clock is set, the mark will disappear (see page 33).

• For the sequential shot shooting mode, the TIFF compression ratio cannot be set.

About the sequential shot speed

- The sequential shot speed for sequential shots depends on the resolution.

Resolution 1360: 7.5 images/second (approx. 0.13 seconds/image)

Resolution 1024: 7.5 images/second (approx. 0.13 seconds/image)

Resolution 640: 30 images/second (approx. 0.03 seconds/image)

HELP

If the exposure does not change

- If the subject is too bright or too dark, the exposure may not change as required.

Setting the image quality

The resolution and compression ratio settings determine the image quality. Set these settings according to the image quality you desire.

Setting the resolution

Use the procedure given below to set the image resolution. If the resolution is increased (larger number of pixels per image), the image quality will improve, but the remaining number of images that can be taken will decrease. In the video clip shooting mode, if the resolution is decreased, the length of time possible for the video clip will increase, but the size of the playback image will decrease. It is therefore important to select the resolution according to the desired image quality and purpose.

F2 button F1 1024 F2 FINE

Compression ratio

NOTE

About the resolution and compression settings

- The image captured by a digital disk camera consists of a collection of small dots. The resolution refers to the number of these dots, and the greater the number, the higher the image quality. As the resolution increases, the size of the resulting data also increases, and the number of images that can be captured decreases. To compensate for this, this digital disk camera is able to compress the data. This digital disk camera uses JPEG compression.

- If JPEG compression is used, when the image is returned to its original size, an extremely small portion of it is lost. The higher the compression ratio, the more of the original image is lost. Therefore, this digital disk camera also allows you to store image data without any compression to ensure that none of the original image is lost. This is the TIFF compression ratio. It is important to select the resolution and compression setting that you require for your applications.

About TIFF format

- The TIFF format used by your digital disk camera conforms to TIFF Rev. 6.0 "Extension YCbCr Images v" used by the Exif standards for non-compressed YCbCr data. If you are downloading images to a personal computer, you will need a YCbCr TIFF-compatible application to view them. The applications included in the SANYO Software Pack are YCbCr TIFF-compatible.

Setting the frame rate

Follow the procedure below to set the frame rate at which video clips are recorded. The frame rate tells you how many frames are recorded each second. The greater the frame rate, the smoother the motion in the video clip, but also the larger the size of the video clip file.

Caution

- Although video clips recorded at different frame rates can be joined using the video clip editing functions (see page 139), the video clip recorded at 30 frames/second will be converted to 15 frames/second. If you are going to join video clips together, it is recommended to record them at the same frame rate.

Preparation

- Set the CAMERA/PLAY switch to "CAMERA."

- Turn the mode selector dial to 📄 to select the video clip shooting mode.

MANUAL MODE SETTINGS

About the manual mode settings

Your digital disk camera is equipped with a manual mode and automatic mode. The manual mode settings (see pages 90 to 97) are stored even after the digital disk camera is turned off so it is unnecessary for you to set the manual mode settings each time you switch to the manual mode. This allows you to use the automatic mode and switch to your previously set manual mode settings only when necessary. (You can also set your digital disk camera so that the manual mode settings are cleared each time it is turned off. See page 112.)

By becoming familiar with the manual mode settings, you can perform many different types of interesting effects for a wider range of interesting applications. The settings for the manual and automatic modes are made separately for the still image, sequential shot, and video clip shooting modes.

Automatic mode settings

In the automatic mode, the digital disk camera performs the following settings automatically.

- Focus setting

The focus is set automatically within the distance range of the focus mode set at the focus menu.

- Exposure control setting

The exposure (shutter speed and aperture) is set automatically according to the subject conditions. (Program AE)

- White balance setting

The white balance is set automatically according to the subject conditions. (Auto white balance)

Manual mode settings

In the manual mode, you can set the following settings as desired for the scene you are shooting.

- Focus setting

You can set auto focus, manual focus, and fixed focus.

- Exposure control setting

You can set program AE, AE lock, spot sample AE, shutter speed priority AE, aperture priority AE, and manual exposure (allows setting the shutter speed and aperture as desired).

INTERVAL SHOOTING

Interval shooting is a special shooting feature where the digital disk camera captures images in set intervals. There are two types of interval shooting: still image interval shooting captures still images in set intervals and video clip interval shooting captures images in set intervals that will then become one video clip (see page 101).

With interval shooting, you can effectively capture the blooming of a flower blooming or other such extremely slow movement.

Still image interval shooting

Example: Capturing five images in ten-minute intervals.

ANIMATION SHOOTING

Animation shooting is a special shooting technique that allows you to create a video clip by capturing the images for each frame separately with the shutter release button. This allows you to capture the images when you want based on the movement of the subject or the changes that you make to the subject. For example, you can gradually change the shape of a clay figure as you capture the images to make a video clip where the clay figure appears to be moving by itself. The audio is not recorded during the animation shooting, so the completed video clip will have no sound.

Dealing with the folder settings

The initial settings for your digital disk camera have all files (i.e. images, video clips, and audio recordings) stored in the folder number 100 (see page 148). When the number of files increases and exceeds a certain amount, a new folder is automatically created (folder number 101 and so on) and the new files are stored in this folder (see page 168).

Your digital disk camera also allows you to create new folders. By creating new folders, you can separate images and files into different folders for classification and also move files from one folder to another. By creating folders, your files can be neatly organized when they become too many to commit to memory.

About the folder to which files are saved and the folder from which files are played

- Your digital disk camera allows you to create multiple folders so that you can organize your files into the different folders. The setting of which folder to save files to and which folder to play files from is done separately so be careful not to confuse the two.

Setting the save folder: Go to Folder Setting Screen (see page 117).

Setting the playback folder: There are two methods (the folder for saving will not change even if the folder for playing back files is changed).

• Select the desired folder at the Folder Information Screen (see page 118) and press the SET button.
• Change folders at the Skip File Screen (see pages 55, 60, 65).

- If you turn off the digital disk camera while it is in a playback mode and then turn it back on, a file from the previously selected playback folder will be displayed. If you perform any shooting, those files will be saved to the save folder selected at the Folder Setting Screen. At this time, if you return to the playback mode, files from the folder to which you just saved files will be displayed.

Example:

1 Select the folder to save files (the save folder) at the Folder Setting Screen (see page 117).

(Example: Set folder number 103)

- If shooting is performed, those files will be saved to folder number 103.

② Change to playback mode without turning off the digital disk camera.

- Files in folder number 103 are played back.

③ Change the playback folder at the Folder Information Screen (see page 118).

NOTE

Even after formatting the remaining disk space will not be 730 megabytes or 100%

- An iD PHOTO disk has 356,832 sectors of 2,048 bytes each for a total capacity of 730,791,936 bytes. However, the digital disk camera calculates one megabyte as 1,048,574 bytes for the display of the remaining disk space (in megabytes or percentage) so the display is a small amount less than the actual value.

HANDLING DATA STORED ON THE DISK

How images, video clips, and audio recording are stored

Saving files recorded with your digital disk camera

- Saving files to a computer

Requires: Computer connecting cable and SANYO Software Pack (supplied), commercially available personal computer.

Advantages: The images are saved as data on the computer hard disk. They can then be processed or edited, sent over a network or the Internet, etc. for a wide range of applications.

For more information, see the instruction manual for the supplied SANYO Software Pack.

- Print out in high quality with a digital print service

The media used to store data recorded by your digital disk camera is the iD PHOTO disk. At the time of this print, most digital print services do not accept data on iD PHOTO disks, so you will need to copy the data onto another form of media. You can then take your image data to digital print service centers for high-quality print outs of your captured images. (Consult the service for more information.)

Advantages: You can receive high-quality printouts of the images you capture.

Caution: To print out a single shot from a sequential shot or a single scene from a video clip, you may need to first copy the data as a still image (see page 153). Be aware that if the image resolution is low, depending on the print size, the output image may not be high quality.

Data file formats

The format of the files saved on the disk and the method in which the file names are determined are explained below.

Still image files

Data format: JPEG or non-compressed YCbCr TIFF format (conforming to Exif Ver. 2.1) (see page 85)

File name structure: File name starts with SANY and will have the file extension jpg or tif.

Ex.: SANYoooo.jpg or SANYoooo.tif

The "oooo" represents a sequential number assigned automatically.

Voice memo data

Data format: WAVE format

File name structure: Same file name as the still image to which it is attached with the file extension wav.

Ex.: SANYoooo.wav

Sequential shots data

Data format: JPEG format

File name structure: File name starts with SEQT and will have the file extension jpg.

Ex.: SEQTxxyy.jpg

The "xx" represents the sequential shot folder number. The "yy" represents a sequential number assigned automatically.

Video clips data

Data format: QuickTime Movie format

File name structure: File name starts with VCLP and will have the file extension mov.

Ex.: VCLPoooo.mov

The "oooo" represents a sequential number assigned automatically.

Audio recording/shutter sound data

Data format: WAVE format

File name structure: File name starts with SUND and will have the file extension wav.

Ex.: SUNDoooo.wav

The "oooo" represents a sequential number assigned automatically.

In addition to that shown above, other system files will also be created.

HELP

Do not modify the folders and file names in the disk using your computer

- Your digital disk camera stores and accesses data according to the rules given in the configuration shown above. If the folders, file names, or their configuration is modified by accessing the disk in some manner with your computer, your digital disk camera may not be able to playback data and may not operate properly.

Concerning the video clip data saved by the digital disk camera

- You can use QuickTime Ver. 3.0 or greater from Apple to playback the video clips. QuickTime 4.1 Pro for Windows and Macintosh is supplied with the SANYO Software Pack (supplied).

- To view images using MediaPlayer on a computer running Windows, use the software included in the SANYO Software Pack (supplied) to change the images to the Windows-compatible AVI format.

Erasing data

With your digital disk camera, if you ever make a mistake when capturing an image, filming a video clip, or recording an audio recording, or if it does not turn out as you want, or if you simply no longer need it, you can erase it. There are three methods of erasing data.

• Erasing a folder and all of its contents.
• Erasing a group of files (for sequential shots, this will erase the folder for one complete sequential shot).
• Erasing files one at a time.

With still images that have a voice memo attached, you can erase only the voice memo or erase the image and voice memo together.

Preparation

- Set the CAMERA/PLAY switch to "PLAY."

- Turn the mode selector dial to the playback mode of the type of file to be erased.

1 Display the file that you want to erase.

• For images and video clips, perform the procedure given in "Playing back still images" on page 52, "Playing back sequential shots" on page 57, or "Playing back video clips" on page 63 depending on the file type, and then proceed to step 2.
• For audio recordings, perform step 1 to 6 of "Playing back audio recordings" on page 69 and then proceed to step 3.
