⚠️WARNING	This symbol indicates handling procedures which may result in death or personal injury if not followed properly.
⚠️CAUTION	This symbol indicates procedures which may result in injury to the user, or physical damage to the product if not followed properly.

WARNING

·If camera or batteries become hot, emit smoke or a burning smell, or display other abnormal symptoms, remove them from the camera immediately to prevent fire. When handling the batteries, take precautions to avoid being burned.·Never attempt to disassemble or modify the camera, since you may receive a severe electric shock.·Do not operate the electronic flash at close proximity to a person's eyes (especially those of an infant), since eye damage may result.·Do not attempt to take pictures while driving or walking since you may cause an accident.·When taking pictures, remain aware of your surroundings and what is happening around you.

CAUTION

Clean the camera well after using it at the beach or other locations subject to large concentrations of sand or dust. Salt air may promote corrosion of metal components and damage or short circuits in electronic parts, causing the camera to emit smoke or catch fire. Sand inside the camera may result in internal damage and operating malfunctions.If the camera is brought quickly from a cold place to a warm room, condensation may form on the lens and internal parts. Such condensation may result in damage or short circuits in electronic parts, causing the camera to emit smoke or catch fire. Whenever possible, avoid subjecting the camera to sudden changes in temperature.This camera is a precision electronic instrument, and should be protected from impacts and falls that might cause damage to internal parts or the shorting of circuitry.This camera is an electronic device which uses a high-performance IC. The heat emitted from the IC may make the camera hot during use. It is not a failure.When taking the camera overseas or using it to record important events, check its operating condition and take test pictures beforehand to confirm proper operation.

• This camera is not designed to be waterproof, and cannot be used in the rain or under water. If the camera should inadvertently be exposed to water, it should be taken quickly to a Contax Service Center for inspection.
• Take great care to keep the lens clean since soiling such as fingerprints can affect the accuracy of the camera's metering and focusing functions. If these areas become soiled and require cleaning, wipe them gently with a third-party lens cleaning cloth. Any dust should be removed using a blower or lens brush.
• Clean the camera body by wiping with soft cloth. Never use benzene, thinner, or other volatile solvents or cleansers, since such substances will damage the body materials.
• Do not remove the SD memory card or Multi-Media Card (MMC) while the card access LED is flashing.
• Interference may occur in recorded or played back images when the camera is used in areas subject to strong electromagnetic interference (e.g., near a television set or stereo speakers).
• Do not direct the camera lens directly toward the sun when shooting, since the CCD element may be damaged.
• If the camera is dropped, it may be damaged internally or parts may have been dislodged even when there is no visible external damage. The camera must be taken to a Contax Service Center for checking.
• Do not attempt to touch the insides of the memory card slot, since damage or malfunction may result.

For best performance, we recommend the use of genuine Contax accessories. Contax is not responsible for any accidents or damage caused by the use of accessories made by other manufacturers or fashioned by the user.

This camera incorporates a safety circuit to protect its microcomputer against strong external static electricity. Though rare, it may fail to function because this safety circuit has come into action. In this case, turn off the camera's power, remove the batteries, reload them and use the camera again.

CAUTION

• Store the camera in a well-ventilated location, avoiding damp or dusty areas, drawers or boxes containing mothballs, or in laboratories or other locations where chemicals are handled. Exposure to such chemical fumes can result in damage to the camera's circuitry, resulting in short circuits and causing the camera to emit smoke or catch fire.

• Do not place the camera in places that may be exposed to high temperatures for extended periods of time (the beach in summer, a closed car under bright sun, etc.). Such high temperatures may cause adverse affects or damage to the camera, batteries, or memory cards.
• Remove the battery pack before storing the camera for extended periods of time, to prevent battery leakage and resulting damage.

CAUTION

Rubbing or pressing strongly on the LCD monitor screen can result in damage or malfunctions. If there is dust or dirt on the LCD monitor, blow it off with a blower brush. Heavy soiling should be wiped off using soft cloth.If the LCD monitor should become broken, take precautions to prevent personal injury from glass fragments.If the LCD monitor breaks and its liquid contacts your skin, quickly wipe away any remaining liquid and wash the skin with soap and water. If the liquid should enter the eyes, wash with clean running water for at least 15 minutes, then seek medical attention immediately.

• Due to the innate characteristics of LCD panels, a few pixels may appear permanently lighted or may not light at all. This is not a malfunction, and does not affect the recorded image in any way.
• The LCD monitor may appear difficult to see in some outdoor lighting situations.

⚠️DANGER

Do not recharge or place batteries near sources of high heat (near flames, heaters, or in direct sunlight, etc.), or in places exposed to flammable gasses, since the batteries may generate heat, emit smoke, or rupture.Do not allow the positive (+) and negative (−) terminals of batteries to be shortcircuited by metallic wires or object, since batteries may generate heat or emit smoke or flames.Do not store batteries together with keys, necklaces, coins or other metallic objects, since the objects may contact the battery terminals, causing short-circuits.Do not try to heat batteries, or dispose of them in fire, since they may generate heat, emit smoke or flame, or rupture.Do not attempt to disassemble or modify batteries, since they may generate heat, emit smoke or flame, or the internal battery liquid may enter your eyes, causing blindness or other personal injury. If battery liquid should enter the eyes, wash the eyes with clear running water and seek medical attention immediately.This battery pack has been designed for exclusive use with this camera. Always use the camera to recharge the battery pack. Do not use the battery pack in any device other than this camera and do not attempt to recharge it using a third-party charger as the battery pack may generate heat or smoke, catch fire or explode.

WARNING

·Never place batteries in a microwave oven or other container exposed to high-voltage, since battery liquid may leak, or the battery pack may generate heat, emit smoke or flame, or rupture.·Do not use leaking batteries. Battery liquid may contact your skin, causing personal injury. In the event battery liquid does contact skin, wash immediately with clean water.·Do not use broken or ruptured batteries, since they may generate heat, emit smoke or flame, or cause electrical shock.

⚠CAUTION

Do not place batteries in water of any kind, or allow them to become wet, since the batteries may generate heat, emit smoke or flame, or cause electrical shock.Do not use or attempt to recharge wet batteries, since they may generate heat, emit smoke or flame, or cause electrical shock.Do not store batteries in locations accessible to small children, since injury could result.Do not throw batteries or subject them to strong impacts, since they may be damaged and leak battery fluid.Whenever possible, use batteries at room temperature ( 20^ ± 5^ ). The battery capacity and usable time between recharging may be reduced in situations of extreme heat or cold, such as during mid-summer or deep winter weather, or when batteries are left in a hot location (e.g., inside a closed car exposed to sun). Such conditions may also shorten the usable service life of the battery.When not using batteries, store them in a cool, dry location.

• Even if the battery pack is fully charged, the amount of time that you will be able to use the battery pack will be reduced if you use the camera in a cold environment. In this case, you should prepare yourself with a reserve, pre-charged battery pack. To increase the usage time, put the battery pack in your pocket, etc. to keep it warm, and only insert it in the camera immediately before taking a shot.
• When using the battery pack at normal temperatures, the battery can be used approximately 300 times. If the number of shots that can be taken becomes extremely small, the battery has reached the end of its life. Place an order for a new battery.
• Use the dedicated battery pack and cradle (included) for charging, and charge the battery at room temperature (10°C - 35°C). If you charge the battery pack outside of the room temperature range, the battery may take longer to charge and might not fully charge. Although it is possible to top up the battery, if you continuously recharge a fully charged battery pack, battery performance will be degraded.
• When storing the battery pack, store it in a cool place. If you store the battery pack in an extremely hot or extremely cold place, battery performance will be degraded.
• If you are not using the camera for a period of time, remove the battery pack from the camera. If the battery pack is left installed in the camera, even if the camera is turned off, a small current will flow and the battery will overly discharge. This can result in the battery becoming unusable.
• When you remove the battery pack from the camera, the date and time settings may be reset. If this happens, you will need to reset these settings.
• When storing the battery pack, store the battery pack when the battery level is fully used (LOW BATTERY). Furthermore, if you intend to store the battery pack for a long period of time, recharge and then discharge the battery approximately once a year. (To get to the LOW BATTERY level, use the camera slideshow to run down the battery.)
• If the battery pack terminals become dirty, clean the terminals by rubbing them.

■Avoiding camera shake

Camera shake refers to the effect of images appearing blurred or out of focus because the camera moved when the picture was taken. This is particularly likely to occur at slow shutter speeds and in macro shots.

This applies particularly to macro shots with high magnifications, where the subject's depth of field is extremely shallow, and even the slight camera movement when the shutter release button is pressed can have a large impact on the image.

In situations of this sort, place the camera on a stable surface to take the shot. Even greater stability can be achieved by using the self-timer ( p.57) so that the camera does not move when the shutter release button is pressed.

NEXT

■Holding the camera

Hold the camera in both hands with the LCD monitor facing you. Take care that your fingers do not obstruct the lens or flash.

Relax your shoulders. Brace your elbows lightly against your sides. Hold the camera in both hands.

3 Press the shutter release button down half way to set the focus.

The camera gives a short double-beep, the green shooting mark "●" lights on the LCD monitor and the focus frame turns green to indicate that the focus has been set.

Note

• A flashing shooting mark "●" indicates that the focus is not set. Press the shutter release button half way again until the shooting mark "●" stays lit and the focus is set.
• When the focus frame ( p.70) is set to [MULTI AF], the selected focus frame turns green.
• There is no selected focus frame displayed when the focus is fixed at infinity (Twilight mode, Night View mode, and Landscape mode).

Pipip

■Pressing the shutter release button half way

When you press the shutter release button, it stops at a point on the way down to the fully pressed position. At this point, it is said to be pressed half way and the camera determines the focus in readiness for taking a picture. If you then continue pressing the shutter release button all the way down, the camera takes the picture.

Not pressed Pressed half way Pressed fully (starts picture shooting)

NEXTBA

4 Press the shutter release button down fully.

■When the Memory Card is Full

When you cannot record any more images on a memory card, the "MEMORY CARD FULL" message appears on the LCD monitor. When this happens, try the following:

• Erase any unwanted images.
• Save your images onto a PC and then erase the images stored on the memory card.
• Insert another memory card that has some available space.

AUTO 2272 0 MEMORY CARD FULL

To erase images on a memory card, you can use [ERASE], [ERASE MULTIPLE] ([SELECT AND ERASE] or [ERASE ALL]) or [FORMAT]. For more information on erasing images, see p.100. For more information on formatting memory cards, see p.161.

To save images to a personal computer, use the USB cable provided. Refer to "Connecting to a Windows PC" (→ p.134) or "Connecting to a Macintosh" (→ p.144) for details.

! Important

• Press the shutter release button lightly with the soft pad of your fingertip. Pressing the button too hard will result in camera shake. ("Avoiding camera shake" → p.39)
• When the shutter speed is low, the warning LED flashes relatively fast and the camera shake warning icon [“☐”] is displayed on the screen. This indicates that there is a risk of camera shake occurring. You should place the camera on a stable surface and use the self-timer (→ p.57) or, depending on the subject, use the flash.

("Avoiding camera shake" → p.39, "Using the Flash" → p.60)

- After taking a shot, the warning LED flashes relatively slowly and the red and white flash icon [⚡] blinks alternately on the screen while the flash is recharging. Wait for the warning LED to go out and the flash icon to stop blinking before taking the next shot.

("Using the Flash" → p.60)

- When the card access LED is blinking, data is being read from or written to the card. Do not open the card/battery cover or remove the memory card while the LED is flashing as this could cause data corruption or, in some cases, camera damage. Note that you can still take pictures while the card access LED is flashing.

Using Continuous Shooting Mode

This camera is capable of taking a series of consecutive shots at up to approximately 3.0 frames per second.* This feature is useful for photographing moving subjects and for situations where you do not want to miss a snapshot opportunity. Select AF continuous to refocus the camera for each frame while shooting continuously.

* When using a high speed memory card (an SD Memory Card with a writing speed of 10MB/S or more).

1 Turn the camera on and press the mode button until "☐" lights up on the mode select LED.

Important

- This setting is retained when you turn the camera off.

- To ensure that you obtain approximately 3.0 frames per second (approx. 1.4 frames per second for AF continuous shooting) performance, you should format ( p.161) the SD memory card in the camera beforehand. If you repeatedly shoot and erase frames, the continuous shooting speed may drop. If this occurs, save the images to your PC and then format the memory card using the camera before continuing.

- The number of continuous shots that can be taken varies depending on the type and capacity of the memory card in the camera and on the subject. Continuous shooting stops when the memory card is full of recorded images.

- The speed at which data is written to a memory card varies according to the type of card used.

- If you use an SD memory card that is intended for high-speed recording, you can use continuous shooting to shoot at approximately 3.0 frames per second (approx. 1.4 frames per second for AF continuous shooting) until the memory card is full. (The speed varies depending on the subject.)

- If slower shutter speeds are used because the subject is dark, the continuous shooting speed may be slower than 3.0 frames per second (or approx. 1.4 frames per second for AF continuous shooting).

- If you use the flash, the camera cannot shoot continuously.

- When you erase a single image from the middle of a group of continuous images, the group splits into 2 groups of continuous images.

NEXTBA

Note

• When used in combination with the self-timer, a series of 3 continuous shots is taken after either 10 seconds or 2 seconds. ("[O] Using the Self-Timer" → p.57)

Using the Flash

This camera has an Automatic Flash mode in which the camera determines whether or not to fire the flash based on the ambient light level. However, there is also a range of other flash modes that you can use to achieve particular effects in your shots.

! Important

When using the flash for close-up shots, you should set the ISO sensitivity to 200 or less. If you set the sensitivity to a high ISO setting and then take close-up shots, the image will be overexposed.

Flash Modes

[⚡ AUTO] Auto Flash mode

The camera detects the ambient light level and determines whether to fire the flash.

[ AUTO ] Red-eye Reduction Auto mode

In this mode, the flash reduces the red-eye effect by firing twice: once just before and again when the picture is taken. As in Auto Flash mode, the camera detects the ambient light level and determines whether to fire the flash.

Important

The shot is taken the second time the flash fires, not the first time. Take care to ensure that neither the camera nor the subject move after the flash fires the first time.

[④] Flash Off mode

In this mode, the flash never fires, regardless of the ambient light levels. This mode is best for shots of sunsets or shots where you want to retain an indoor ambiance.

! Important

- Because the shutter speed used may be slow, depending on the light level, you should place the camera on a stable surface and use the self-timer ( p.57) to prevent camera shake when the shot is taken.

- If the photographed image is too dark, use the exposure compensation ( p.64) or ISO sensitivity ( p.66) settings to adjust the brightness.

[?] Fill-in Flash mode

In this mode, the flash fires regardless of the ambient light conditions. When you take a picture in strong sunlight or when the subject is backlit, this mode allows you to take a picture that clearly shows both the subject and the background.

Adjusting the Brightness

[2] Using Exposure Compensation

«Applicable mode: 📷/¶»

Use exposure compensation to adjust the brightness of your images. This function is especially useful for shots where you did not get the ideal exposure because the brightness of the subject and background were very different. You can also use this feature when you deliberately want to shoot under- or over-exposed images.

This camera allows you to adjust the brightness up to plus or minus 2.0 EV in 1/3 EV increments.

• When the flash is used, exposure compensation is limited to between -1.0 and +1.0 EV.

Note

You cannot set the exposure compensation in Night View mode.

[ISO] Changing the ISO Sensitivity to Shoot Fast Moving Subjects

The [ISO] setting corresponds to the ISO value of conventional film and indicates sensitivity to light.

The ISO sensitivity options in this mode are [AUTO], [50], [100], [200] and [400]. The default setting is [AUTO], in which case the camera automatically chooses the ISO sensitivity to suit the ambient conditions. Although images become coarse for higher values, the sensitivity to light is better, allowing you to take shots in dark locations and use the high-speed shutter. This also slightly increases the effective range of the flash.

[METERING] Selecting the Area Used for Setting the Exposure

In this mode, you can select the area that the camera uses to set the exposure. The available settings are [EVALUATION], [CENTER] and [SPOT AREA]. Use the setting that best suits your subject.

[EVALUATION] : The screen is partitioned into zones and the optimum exposure is determined based on measurements of the light in each zone. Because this mode allows ordinary shots or even backlit shots to be taken with little or no exposure compensation, it is recommended for novices or for users who want to take pictures without having to worry about the exposure settings.

[CENTER] : The exposure is determined by giving particular weight to measurements of the light from the subject that strikes the central part of the screen. This mode makes it easy for the camera to set the exposure even in shots where there is a strong light source close to the subject.

[SPOT AREA] : The camera determines the exposure by measuring only the light from the subject that strikes the center of the screen. This mode should be used for shots where there is a strong contrast in brightness between the subject and the background, such as a backlit portrait or a shot of a performance where the lighting is focused on a specific part of the stage. You can also use this mode to measure the light from a particular part of your subject when you are trying to achieve a specific effect.

(Area measured) Area measured in [EVALUATION] mode Measures by splitting the entire screen into zones. Area measured in [CENTER] mode Measures the central part of the screen. Area measured in [SPOT AREA] mode Only measures a single point in the center of the screen.

Using DPOF to specify print settings

«Applicable images: Still images only»

DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) is a printing standard for images shot on digital cameras that simplifies the printing of images on a consumer printer or at a print processing outlet.

The DPOF settings specify which images are to be printed and how many copies of each image are printed. They also support other basic settings such as date imprinting. Check that your printer supports DPOF printing or that your local print processing shop provides a DPOF printing service. For more information on the DPOF settings, refer to the instruction manual provided with your DPOF-compatible printer.

Note

These settings can also be used in MULTI playback / GROUP playback modes ( p.87).

■Notes on using the power save function (in "☐" or "☒" mode)

Depending on the power save setting, the camera operates as follows:

- When [POWER SAVE] is set to [15SEC], [30SEC], [1MIN.] or [3MIN.].

If the camera is left turned on for the configured time or longer, the LCD monitor automatically goes blank for two minutes (sleep mode).

While the camera is in sleep mode, it can be quickly returned to its original shooting mode by pressing the shutter release button half way or by pressing any of the other function buttons.

However, the camera turns off after the two minutes have passed.

- When [POWER SAVE] is set to [NO PWR OFF].

If the camera is left turned on for six minutes or more, the LCD monitor goes blank.

In this case, the LCD monitor remains blank but the camera is not turned off. To return the camera to its normal shooting mode, press the shutter release button half way or press any of the other function buttons.

Basic Digital Camera Glossary

AE (Auto Exposure)

Automatic exposure is the function by which the camera automatically adjusts the exposure (the shutter speed and aperture settings) to suit the brightness of the subject.

AF (Auto Focus)

The function by which the camera automatically focuses images.

Aperture

This is a mechanism inside the camera lens that controls the amount of light passing through the lens by changing the size of an opening.

Aperture setting

A number that indicates the size of the aperture opening. Settings are displayed as numbers such as F2.8, and the higher the aperture setting, the smaller the opening and the less light that passes through the lens.

CCD (Charge Coupled Device)

This is a device that converts the light that enters the camera through the lens into digital information. Strictly speaking, a CCD is a tiny component and many hundreds of thousand of CCDs are used to make up the imaging element in a digital camera. The number of CCDs is referred to as the number of pixels. The larger the number of pixels, the greater the amount of information generated by converting light and the higher the resolution of the image.

DCF (Design rule for Camera File system)

This is a standard that stipulates items such as the file formats for digital cameras and related devices. In principle, digital cameras that conform to the DCF standard can freely exchange images, even when the images were shot with a different brand of camera. This camera complies with the DCF standard.

- DCF is a collective mark of the Japan Electronic Industry Development Association (JEIDA).

Depth of field

When a subject is in focus, the depth of field refers to the area in front of and behind the subject that is also in focus. The depth of field increases when the aperture setting is high. Such shots are said to have a large depth of field. Conversely, lower aperture settings give a narrow range in which objects are in focus. This is referred to as a small depth of field. The depth of field becomes smaller when the subject is closer to the camera.

NEXT

DPOF (Digital Print Order Format)

DPOF is a standard used for printing images photographed using a digital camera on a home printer or at a commercial print processing store. Provided a DPOF-compatible printer or a commercial print processing store that provides a DPOF print service is used, prints specified on this (DPOF-compatible) camera will be produced in the quantities and formats specified in the DPOF settings.

- The DPOF trademark indicates that the product conforms to the specifications of the "Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) for digital camera print information". Copyright for DPOF Version 1.00 is held jointly by Canon Inc., Eastman Kodak Co., Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd and Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.

EV (Exposure Value)

An EV is a number that denotes exposure. EV=1 when the aperture setting is F1 and the shutter speed is 1 second. Each time the exposure then halves, the EV number increases by 1 (EV=2, EV=3...). Conversely, when the exposure is double the EV=1 level, the EV becomes -1. When the exposure is doubled again, EV=-2, and so on.

Exposure

This refers to the amount of light projected through the lens that strikes the camera's film or image sensor (CCD in this camera). The exposure is controlled by the combination of shutter speed and aperture setting. The image brightness is determined by the exposure.

Flash

This is a device that produces a bright flash of light when the camera shutter opens. Flash units are used in low-light situations such as indoor shots or pictures taken at night. Flash units tend to deplete the camera batteries if used frequently.

Focal length

This refers to the distance from the lens to a point that is in focus. At shorter focal lengths, the shot covers a wider area, while longer focal lengths make distant objects look larger.

Focus

This term refers to the focal point of a lens, but is more broadly used to refer to the condition whereby the subject of a photograph is seen most clearly. When the focusing is correct and the subject is clearly visible, the shot is said to be "in focus". When this is not the case, the shot is "out of focus".

Formatting (initialization)

This is a process that organizes the internal structure of a memory card so that files can be recorded on the card. Formatting a memory card erases all the existing data stored on that card.

NEXTBA

Infinity

Once the subject of a photograph is further than a set distance away from the camera lens, moving still further away requires no adjustment to the focus. The distance at which the subject is so far away that no change in the focus occurs is referred to as "infinity".

ISO (International Organization for Standardization) sensitivity

This is a number that indicates the sensitivity of film to light, with higher values indicating greater sensitivity. Film with higher ISO sensitivity is more sensitive to light and can be used to take pictures in low-light conditions, but is also more susceptible to unwanted specks on the image (noise).

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)

This refers to an image data compression format. The compression ratio is variable, with higher compression ratios giving smaller image file sizes but poorer image quality.

Memory Card

A recording medium on which data can be written, erased and rewritten. SD memory cards and Multimedia cards can be used with this camera.

PictBridge

This is a printing standard that allows images to be printed directly from a digital camera or video camera via a USB cable, regardless of the manufacturer or model.

Red-eye effect

When a flash is used to take a picture of a person, the light of the flash reflecting from the back (retina) of the subject's eyes has the effect of making them appear to glow red. This camera is equipped with a red-eye reduction function to prevent this effect.

Shooting mark

The "●" mark displayed on the LCD monitor when the camera is ready to take a picture.

Shutter speed

This refers to the length of time that the camera's shutter (a curtain behind the lens) opens when a picture is taken.

Subject

This term refers to the person or object photographed by the camera. In portrait shots, the subject is the person. In shots of landscapes, the subject is the scenery.

TFT (Thin Film Transistor) color LCD monitor

The type of LCD monitor used in this camera. TFT panels provide good resolution and excellent responsiveness.

White Balance

The light emitted by fluorescent tubes or incandescent light bulbs differs slightly in color. Without any adjustment, the colors in shots taken under such light sources differ from the actual colors you see. For this reason, a white subject is used as a reference to adjust the colors before shooting so that the resulting photo shows the actual colors of the subject.

Zooming

This refers to the gradual changing of the photography scale. Gradual enlargement of the subject is called "zooming in", while gradual reduction of the subject is called "zooming out".
