Open the back cover, insert the 35mm film cartridge into the left chamber, pull the leader across to the take-up spool, close the back, and advance the film until frame 1 appears.

Why won't the shutter release?

Check batteries or ensure film is advanced. If the camera is in auto mode with insufficient light, the flash may need to be activated.

Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth or a lens cleaning brush. Avoid liquids; if necessary, use a drop of lens cleaning solution.

Can I use ISO 800 film with this camera?

The camera only reads ISO 100, 200, and 400 via DX code. ISO 800 may be underexposed; use at your own risk.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Camera notes:

Do not store or use the camera in the following types of locations:

• In the rain or in, very humid and dusty places.
- In a place where the camera may be exposed directly to sunlight or subject to high temperature, e.g. Inside a closed car in summer.
- In a place where the camera is subject to a high magnetic field, e.g. near motors, transformers or magnets.

Do not place the camera on a wet surface or places where dripping water or sand may come in contact with the camera, which may cause irrepairable damage.

! If the camera will not be used for a long period of time, we suggest you remove the batteries and the memory card from the camera and keep them in a dry environment.

! If you carry the camera suddenly from a cold location to a warm place, moisture may condense inside the camera. We suggest you wait for a while before turing on the camera.

No compensation for loss of recordings. Loss of recordings cannot be compensated for if a malfunction of your camera or recording media, makes the playback of recordings not possible.

Battery notes:

! Incorrect use of the battery may cause them to leak, become hot, ignite or burst. Always observe the precautions given below.

• Do not expose the battery to water, and take particular care to keep the terminals dry.
• Do not heat the battery or throw them into a fire.
• Do not attempt to deform, disassemble or modify the battery.

Keep the battery out of reach of small children.

In cold locations, battery performance deteriorates and the time for which they can be used shortens markedly.

Memory card notes:

When using a new memory card, or a memory card that has been used in a PC, be sure to format the card with your digital camera before using it.

To edit image data, copy the image data to the PC's hard disk first.

Do not change or delete the folder names or file names in the memory card from your PC, as this may make it impossible for your camera to recognize the original folder or file in the memory card.

The photos taken by this camera are stored in the auto-generated folder in the SD card. Please do not store photos that are not taken by this model of camera, as this may make it impossible to recognize the picture when the camera is in playback mode. Please do not expose the camera to harsh environments such as moisture or extreme temperatures, which may shorten the life of your camera or damage the batteries.

If the LCD monitor is damaged, take particular care with the liquid in the monitor. If any of the following situations arise, take the recommended immediate action indicated below:

• If liquid from the LCD comes in contact with your skin, wipe the area with a cloth and then wash thoroughly with soap and running water.
• If liquid from the LCD flows into the eyes inadvertently, please rinse with water immediately and seek medical assistance.

Size

The size setting refers to the image resolution in pixels. A higher image resolution allows you to print that image in larger sizes without degrading the image quality.

The larger the pictures are, the bigger the file sizes are and the less pictures you can store on a memory card.

Quality

The quality setting adjusts the compression ratio of the images. Higher quality settings give better photos, but will take up more memory space.

There are three options for picture quality:

• Quality : Best
• Quality : Fine
• Quality : Normal

WB [White Balance]

The White Balance allows you to adjust the color temperature from different light sources to ensure faithful color reproduction. (The WB setting is only available when the camera is in the M Manual mode).

Color: Auto

Color : Vivid

Color : Black & White

Color : Sepia

AgfaPhoto OPTIMA 145

Pictures at higher ISO will naturally have more noise than those at lower ISO.

The options of ISO include automatic, 64, 100, 200, 400, 800 and 1600.
