FOCUS SIGNALS

The focus signal in the lower right corner of the LCD monitor indicates the focus status. The shutter can be released even if the camera cannot focus on the subject.

Focus locked.

Focus confirmed (P, A, S, and M continuous AF focus mode and sports action digital subject program). Exposure continuously adjusts.

Cannot focus. The subject is too close or a special situation is preventing the AF system from focusing.

When using the sports action digital subject program, the camera continually focuses when the shutter-release button is pressed partway down; the focus frames turn red. Keep the subject within the red focus frames. Focus lock cannot be used.

If the AF system cannot focus, focus lock can be used with object at the same distance as the main subject or the camera can be focused manually in the Digital Subject Program or program (P) exposure modes (p. 54).

SPECIAL FOCUSING SITUATIONS

The camera may not be able to focus in certain situations. If the autofocus system cannot focus on a subject, the focus signal will turn red. In this situation, focus-lock on an object at the same distance as the main subject and then recompose the image on the monitor to take the picture.

FLASH MODES

To change the flash mode, simply press the flash mode button (1) until the appropriate mode is indicated.

Autoflash - the flash fires automatically in low-light and backlit conditions.

Red-eye reduction - multiple flashes are used before the main flash burst to reduce red-eye; an effect caused by light reflected from the retina. Use in low-light conditions when taking photographs of people or animals. The pre-flashes contract the pupils of the subject's eyes.

Fill-flash - the flash fires with each exposure regardless of the amount of ambient light. Fill-flash can be used to reduce harsh shadows caused by strong direct light or sunshine.

Slow sync. - flash and ambient light exposures are balanced; red-eye reduction is used. Use slow sync. when in dark locations to reveal background details. Ask your subject not to move after the flash burst; the shutter may still be open for the background exposure. Because exposures can be long, the use of a tripod is recommended.

Flash cancel - the flash cannot fire.

FLASH RANGE - AUTO-RECORDING MODE

The camera controls the flash output automatically. For well-exposed images, the subject must be within the flash range. Distance is given from the CCD plane. Because of the optical system, the flash range is not the same at the lens' wide-angle position as it is at the telephoto position.

Wide-angle position

0.57 - 5.3m (1.87 - 17.39 ft)

Telephoto position

1.57 - 5.3m (5.15 - 17.39 ft)

Approximate location of CCD plane

If the flash output was sufficient to illuminate the subject, the OK indicator briefly replaces the flash-mode indicator after the exposure. The access lamp turns red and blinks slowly while the flash is charging; if battery power is low, the monitor turns off during this period.

Camera Notes

If using continuous AF or the sports action subject program with flash, the monitor image reflects the exposure required for the flash when the shutter-release button is pressed partway down. This may cause the monitor image to appear dark in low-light situations.

CAMERA-SHAKE WARNING

If the shutter speed falls below the point where the camera can be safely hand held, the camera-shake warning appears on the LCD monitor. Camera shake is slight blurring caused by subtle hand motion and is more pronounced at the telephoto position of the lens than at the wide-angle. Although the warning appears, the shutter can still be released. If the warning appears, place the camera on a tripod, use the built-in flash, or zoom the lens towards the wide-angle position until the warning disappears.

Subject program indicator

Portrait - optimized to reproduce warm, soft skin tones and a slight defocusing of the background. Most portraits look best at a telephoto setting; the longer focal length does not exaggerate facial features and the shallower depth of field softens the background. Use the built-in flash with strong direct sunlight or backlight to reduce harsh shadows.

Sports action - used to capture action by maximizing shutter speeds. The AF system continuously focuses; see page 21. When using flash, the subject must be within the flash range (p. 27). A monopod is more flexible and compact than a tripod when shooting events.

Landscape - optimized to produce sharp, colorful landscapes. Used with bright outdoor scenery.

Sunset - optimized to reproduce rich, warm sunsets. When the sun is above the horizon, do not point the camera toward the sun for prolonged periods of time. The intensity of the sun could damage the CCD. Between exposures, turn off the camera or cover the lens.

Night portrait - for deep, subtle night scenes. The use of a tripod is recommended. When used with flash, the subject and background exposures are balanced. The flash can only be used with close subjects such as with a portrait of a person. When using the flash, ask your subjects not to move after the burst; the shutter will still be open for the background exposure.

PROGRAM (P) EXPOSURE MODE

S A P AUTO S M 20 10

The program exposure mode controls both the shutter speed and aperture to ensure correct exposures. This exposure mode allows photographers to shoot without worry about exposure settings. The shutter speed and aperture values of the exposure are displayed on the monitor when the shutter-release button is pressed partway down. If shutter speed and aperture displays turn red, the scene is beyond the exposure control range of the camera.

APERTURE PRIORITY (A) EXPOSURE MODE

S A P AUTO

The photographer selects the aperture and the camera sets the appropriate shutter speed to ensure the correct exposure. When aperture priority is selected, the aperture value on the monitor turns blue and a double arrow indicator appears next to it. The flash mode can be set to fill-flash, fill-flash with red-eye reduction, or slow sync. with red-eye reduction (p. 26).

Use the up/down keys of the controller (1) to set the shutter speed. Press the shutter-release button partway down to activate the exposure system; the corresponding aperture will be displayed on the monitor.

Shooting Tips

The shutter speed and aperture control more than the exposure. The shutter speed determines how sharp a moving subject is. The aperture controls the depth of field; the area in front of the camera that appears sharp. For more on exposure controls, see the Short Guide to Photography on page 66.

Camera notes

When the shutter speed is one second or longer, the beginning and end of the exposure.

MANUAL (M) EXPOSURE MODE

M S Auto

Manual exposure mode allows individual selection of shutter speeds and apertures. This mode overrides the exposure system giving the photographer total control over the final exposure.

Use the up/down keys of the controller to change the shutter speed.

Use the left/right keys of the controller to change the aperture.

The changes made to the exposure will be visible in the live image on the monitor. The monitor shutter-speed and aperture display will turn red if the image is significantly underexposed or overexposed. If the monitor is black, increase the exposure until the image is visible; decrease the exposure if the monitor is white. When the shutter-release button is pressed partway down, the brightness of the live image may change while the camera focuses.

In manual exposure mode, the auto camera-sensitivity setting will fix the ISO value at 100. The camera sensitivity can be changed in section 3 of the recording menu (p. 59). The flash mode can be set to fill-flash, fill-flash with red-eye reduction, or slow sync. with red-eye reduction (p. 26), but the live image will not reflect the flash exposure.

Camera notes

EXPOSURE COMPENSATION

The camera exposure can be adjusted to make the final picture lighter or darker by as much as ±2E_v in 1/3 increments. Exposure compensation can only be used with Digital Subject Programs, the P, A, and S exposure modes, and movie recording mode. With movie recording mode, exposure compensation is reset when the camera is turned off. In Digital Subject Programs, P, A, and S exposure modes, exposure compensation remains in effect until reset.

i2-0.7 i2=0.7

To adjust the exposure, press the left or right controller key; the exposure-compensation screen appears.

Use the left/right keys of the controller to adjust the exposure-compensation value. Changes to exposure are visible in the live image.

Press the shutter-release button partway down or press the central button of the controller to set the adjustment.

When adjusting the exposure, the amount of compensation is shown in EV (p. 50). After the setting is made, the shutter-speed and aperture displays indicate the actual exposure. Because the exposure can be adjusted in fine steps, the shutter speed or aperture value displayed may not change. When set to any value other than zero, the exposure-compensation indicator remains on the monitor as a warning.

Camera notes

Exposure compensation is used when the camera's exposure meter is deceived by high-key or low-key scenes. In the example, the dark water caused the camera to overexpose the image making it too bright and washed-out. By compensating the exposure, detail is brought out in the leaves, and the stones and water appear richer.

SELF-TIMER

Used for self-portraits, the self-timer will delay the release of the shutter for approximately ten seconds or two seconds after the shutter-release button is pressed. The self-timer is set in section 1 of the recording menus (p. 44). The length of the self-timer delay is set in section 4 of the setup menu (p. 92).

With the camera on a tripod, compose the picture so the subject is within the focus frames. Press the shutter-release button partway down to lock the exposure and focus (1). Press the shutter-release button all the way down to begin the countdown (2).

Because focus and exposure are determined when the shutter-release button is pressed, do not stand in front of the camera when taking a self-timer image. Always confirm the focus with the focus signals before beginning the countdown (p. 25).

Diagram showing car interior components with numbered labels indicating different parts of the dashboard.

The self-timer is counted down on the monitor. During the countdown, the self-timer lamp on the front of the camera (3) will start to blink and is accompanied by an audio signal. A few seconds before the exposure, the self-timer lamp will blink rapidly. The lamp will glow steadily just before the shutter fires. To stop the countdown, press the right (T) side or the left (W) side of the zoom lever. When using a 10-second delay, the self-timer drive mode is reset to single-frame advance after the exposure. The audio signal can be turned off in section 3 of the setup menu (p. 91).

Shooting tips

The self-timer can be used to minimize camera shake with long exposures. When using the camera on a tripod, photographs of static subjects (landscapes, still-lifes, or close-up photographs) can be made with the self-timer. Because no contact is made with the camera during exposure, there is no risk of camera shake caused by the operator.

CONTINUOUS-ADVANCE MODE

The continuous-advance drive mode allow a series of images to be captured while holding down the shutter-release button. The number of images that can be captured at one time and the rate of capture depend on the image-size and image-quality settings. The maximum rate of capture is approximately 1.5 fps. This drive mode is set in section 1 of the recording menu.

Compose the picture as described in the basic recording operation section (p. 22).

Press the shutter-release button partway down (1) to lock the focus exposure for the series.

Press and hold the shutter-release button all the way down (2) to begin taking pictures; focus is locked with the first frame. When the shutter-release button is pressed and held, the camera will begin recording images until the maximum number has been taken or the shutter button is released.

The remaining number of frames in the bracket series is displayed on the monitor next to the bracketing indicator. If the memory is filled or the shutter button is released before the series has completed, the camera will reset and the entire bracket must be made again. If the red low-battery indicator appears, the bracketing drive mode is disabled. The flash cannot be used with the bracketing drive mode.

The order of the bracket series is normal exposure, underexposure, and overexposure. The exposure bracket can be made in 0.3, 0.5, or 1.0 Ev increments. The larger the number, the greater the difference in exposure between the images in the bracketed series.

When using exposure compensation (p. 41), the bracketing series will be made in relation to the compensated exposure. Under extreme conditions, one of the bracketed exposures may be inaccurate because it is outside the exposure control range of the camera.

WHAT IS AN EV?

Ev stands for exposure value. A change of one Ev adjusts the exposure calculated by the camera by a factor of two.

IMAGE SIZE AND IMAGE QUALITY

Changing image size affects the number of pixels in each image. The greater the image size, the larger the file size. Choose image size based on the final use of the image - smaller images will be more suitable for web sites whereas larger sizes will produce higher quality prints.

Image quality controls the rate of compression, but has no effect on the number of pixels in the image. The higher the image quality, the lower the rate of compression and the larger the file sizes. If economical use of the memory card is important, use the economy mode. Standard image quality is sufficient for normal usage. The fine mode will produce the highest quality image and the largest image files.

Image size and quality must be set before the picture is taken. Changes are displayed on the LCD monitor. Changes made on one menu affects all exposure modes except movie. Image size and quality must be reset manually. See navigating the recording mode menu section on page 43.

If image size or quality are changed, the frame counter will display the approximate number of images that can be recorded at that setting on the installed memory card. One memory card can contain images with differing sizes and qualities. The number of images that can be stored on a memory card is determined by the size of the card and the file size of the images. The actual file size is determined by the scene; some subjects can be compressed further than others. See the chart on the following page.

Camera Notes

The frame counter indicates the approximate number of images that can be stored on the memory card at the camera's image quality and size settings. If the settings are changed, the frame counter adjusts accordingly. Because the counter uses approximate file sizes, the actual image taken may not change the counter or may decrease it by more than one. When the frame counter displays zero, it indicates no more images at the image size and quality settings can be captured. Changing those settings may allow more images to be saved to the card.

The digital zoom is activated in the auto-recording, Digital Subject Program, and section 3 of the P, A, S, and M exposure-mode menus (p. 44).

The digital zoom extends the power of the telephoto position of the optical zoom by up to 4X in 0.1X increments. The transition between the optical zoom and digital zoom is seamless. When the digital zoom is active, the image magnification is displayed on the monitor and the focus frames change to a single focus area. Because of the degree of magnification, the use of a tripod is recommended.

The digital zoom is operated by the zoom lever (1). Press the right (T) side of the lever to zoom in to the telephoto position of the lens. When the digital zoom activates, the image magnification will be displayed on the monitor. Press the left (W) side of the lever to zoom out. After zooming, the zoom scale is displayed briefly. The yellow section indicates the digital-zoom range.

Digital-zoom images are interpolated to the set image size. Some loss of quality may be evident.

FOCUS MODES

This camera has autofocus and manual focus control. The focus mode is selected separately in the Digital Subject Program, movie, and P, A, S, and M exposure-mode menus. The selected focus mode is not reset when the camera is turned off

With the P, A, S, or M exposure modes or movie recording, the autofocus mode can be specified between single-shot AF (AF-S) and continuous AF (AF-C) in section 2 of the menu (p. 44). Single-shot AF allows the focus to be locked before recording the image, see the basic recording section. Continuous AF continually focuses the camera. When capturing still images, the camera continues to focus when the shutter-release button is held partway down. In movie recording, focus is locked when the shutter-release button is partway down, but it is continually adjusted during recording.

When focusing manually, a scale shows the approximate subject distance. The scale changes depending on the focusing range.

Use the up/down controller keys to focus; the monitor image is automatically magnified by a maximum of 2.5X depending on the digital zoom setting. The live image returns to normal after two seconds, when zooming, or when the shutter-release button is pressed partway down.

When using the shutter-priority, aperture-priority, or manual exposure modes (p. 36 - 38) with manual focus, press the central button of the controller to switch between using the up/down keys to focus or to adjust the exposure. The active function is indicated in blue.

White balance is the camera's ability to make different types of lighting appear neutral. The effect is similar to selecting daylight or tungsten film, or using color compensating filters in conventional photography. An indicator will be displayed on the monitor if a setting other than auto white-balance is chosen. White balance is set independently in section 1 of the movie, and P, A, S, and M exposure-mode menus (p. 44).

Automatic White Balance

The automatic white balance compensates for the color temperature of a scene. In most cases, the auto setting will balance the ambient light and create beautiful images, even under mixed-lighting conditions. When the built-in flash is used, the white balance is set for the color temperature of the flash.

Preset White Balance

Preset white-balance settings must be set before the image is taken. Once set, the effect is immediately visible on the LCD monitor.

Immediately after selecting the preset white-balance option on the menu, a selection screen is displayed.

Press the left/right keys of the controller to select the preset white balance. Press the central button of the controller to apply it. The following preset options are available:

Drive mode Image size Cust.set Quality CustRecall White balance Auto Key func.Preset

Daylight - for outdoor and sunlit subjects.

Cloudy - for overcast outdoor scenes.

Tungsten - for incandescent lighting: household light bulbs.

Fluorescent - for fluorescent lighting: office ceiling lights.

Flash - for use with the built-in flash.

Custom White Balance

Custom white-balance allows the camera to be calibrated to a specific lighting condition. The setting can be used repeatedly until reset. Custom white balance is especially useful with mixed-lighting or when critical control over color is needed. The object used to make a calibration must be neutral. A blank piece of white paper is an ideal surface and can easily be carried in a camera bag.

To calibrate the camera, select custom setup (Cust.set) from the white balance option in section 1 of the movie, and P, A, S, and M exposure-mode menus (p. 44); the custom white-balance calibration screen opens.

Fill the image area with a white object; the object does not need to be in focus. Press the central button of the controller to make the calibration or press the menu button to cancel the routine.

The live view shows the effect of the new white balance setting. The custom setting will remain in effect until another calibration is made or the white-balance setting is changed.

Drive mode Image size Cust.set Quality CustRecall White balance Auto Key func.Preset Set :enter

If the custom white-balance setting is required again, select custom recall from the white-balance option of the menu; the last custom white-balance setting will be applied to the camera. The same custom white-balance setting is made and accessed from the movie, P, A, S, and M exposure modes.

FULL-TIME AF

With full-time AF active, the autofocus systems continually focuses to keep the monitor image sharp. This also reduces the autofocusing time when taking pictures. When the camera is set to manual focus, full-time AF is disabled. Turning the full-time AF function off can help conserve battery power. Full-time AF can be turned on and off in section 2 of the P, A, S, and M menus (p. 44).

FLASH MODE

The flash modes can be changed in section 2 of the P, A, S, and M menus (p. 44). This menu option is used when another function is assigned to the flash mode button, see page 62 on the custom key function. For more on flash modes, refer to page 26.

Flash compensation changes the ratio between the ambient and flash exposures. When using fill-flash to reduce harsh shadows caused by direct sunlight, flash compensation changes the ratio between the highlights and shadows. The flash affects the darkness of the shadows without affecting the area illuminated by the sun. By decreasing the flash output with a negative Ev setting, the shadows receive less light and are deeper, but retain detail that would be lost without the flash. Using a positive Ev setting will soften or eliminate shadows.

METERING MODES

Metering mode indicators are displayed on the monitor. The metering mode is set in section 2 of the P, A, S, and M menus (p. 44).

Multi-segment metering: uses 256 segments to measure luminance and color. This data is combined with distance information to calculate the camera exposure. This advanced metering system will give accurate worry-free exposures in almost all situations.

Center weighted: a traditional metering method in film cameras. The system measures light values over the entire image area with emphasis given the central region.

Spot metering: uses a small area within the image to calculate the exposure. A small circle appears in the middle of the live image indicating the measuring area. The spot allows precise exposure measurements of a particular object without being influenced by extremely bright or dark areas within the scene.

CAMERA SENSITIVITY - ISO

Five camera sensitivity settings can be selected: Auto, 64, 100, 200, and 400; the numerical values are based on an ISO equivalent. ISO is the standard used to indicate film sensitivity: the higher the number, the more sensitive the film. Camera sensitivity is set in section 3 of the P, A, S, and M menus (p. 44).

1 2 3 Sensitivity Auto Digital zoom Off Color mode NaturalColor Sharpness Normal Contrast Normal MENU

The auto setting automatically adjusts the camera sensitivity to the light conditions between ISO 64 and 200. When any other setting than auto is used, “ISO” and the set value will be displayed on the monitor.

A specific sensitivity setting can be selected. As the ISO value doubles, the camera sensitivity doubles. Like grain in silver-halide film that increases with speed, noise increases with sensitivity in digital imaging; an ISO setting of 64 will have the least noise and 400 will have the most. An ISO setting of 400 may allow the camera to be handheld in low-light conditions without the need of a flash. The effect of noise with exposures of one second or longer is reduced by the noise-reduction function in section 2 of the setup menu (p. 88).

FLASH RANGE AND CAMERA SENSITIVITY

The flash range is measured from the CCD. Because of the optical system, the flash range is not the same at the lens' wide-angle position as it is at the telephoto position.

ISO setting	Flash range (wide angle)	Flash range (telephoto)
AUTO	0.57 - 5.3m (1.87 - 17.4ft.)	1.57 - 5.3m (5.15 - 17.4ft.)
64	0.57 - 3.0m (1.87 - 9.84ft.)	1.57 - 3.0m (5.15 - 9.84ft.)

400	0.57 - 7.5m (1.87 - 24.6ft.)	1.57 - 7.5m (5.15 - 24.6ft.)

COLOR MODE

The color mode controls whether a still image is color or black and white. This must be set before the image is recorded. The color mode is set in section 3 of the P, A, S, and M menus and section 2 of the movie menu (p. 44). The live image reflects the selected color mode. The color mode has no effect on image file size.

Natural Color reproduces the colors in the scene faithfully. This mode uses no monitor indicator when active. Vivid Color increases the saturation of the colors in the scene. Black & White produces neutral monochrome images. The sepia mode creates warm-tone monochrome images.

IMAGE SIZE (MOVIE)

Movies can be recorded at two sizes: 640x480 and 320x240. The larger the image size, the higher the image quality and the larger the file sizes. Image size is set in section 1 of the movie menu (p. 44).

FRAME RATE

Image size 320x240 Frame rate 15ps White balance Auto Movie mode STD. movie

Movies can be recorded at two frame rates: 15 fps and 30 fps. 640x480 size image can only be recorded at 15fps. The higher the frame rate, the smoother the moving image and the larger the file sizes. Frame rate is set in section 1 of the movie menu (p. 44).

MOVIE FILE SIZES

If image size or frame rate is changed, the frame counter displays the approximate number of seconds that can be recorded with the installed memory card. The total time that can be stored on a memory card is determined by the size of the card and the recording rate. The actual file size is determined by the scene; some subjects can be compressed further than others.

Approximate recording rate

MOVIE MODE

The movie mode option selects the type of movie recorded. Standard produces a normal movie clip. Night Movie uses high camera sensitivity to record under low light levels; camera sensitivity will automatically increase in low light. Image quality can be lower with Night Movies because of the higher sensitivity. The movie mode is set in section 1 of the movie menu (p. 44).

A SHORT GUIDE TO PHOTOGRAPHY

Photography can be a rewarding pursuit. It is a broad and disciplined field that can take years to master. But the pleasure in making photographs and the joy of capturing a magical moment cannot be compared. The guide is an introduction to some basic photographic principles.

The lens aperture controls not only exposure, but also depth of field; the area between the closest object in focus and the furthest object in focus. The larger the aperture value, the greater the depth of field. The smaller the aperture value, the shallower the depth of field. The required shutter speed for the exposure increases with the aperture value. Usually landscape photographs use a large depth of field (large aperture value) to keep the foreground and background in focus, and portraits use a shallow depth of field (small aperture value) to separate the subject from the background.

Depth of field also changes with focal length. The smaller the focal length, the greater the depth of field; the longer the focal length, the shallower the depth of field.

The shutter controls not only exposure, but also the ability to stop motion. Fast shutter speeds are used in sport photography to stop action. Slow shutter speeds can be used to show the flow of motion such as water cascading over a waterfall. The use of a tripod is recommended with slow shutter speeds.

Black-and-white photo of a cascading waterfall surrounded by rocks (no text or symbols visible)

The change in aperture and shutter speed is not apparent in the live image. Unlike film cameras, test photographs can be taken and immediately viewed. For critical work, take a test photograph at the set aperture or shutter speed and view the result in Quick View (p. 30). The image can be deleted if not acceptable and another test image can be taken at a different setting.

ABOUT DPOF

This camera is supported by DPOF ^™ version 1.1. The DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) allows direct printing of still images from digital cameras. After the DPOF file is created, the memory card is simply taken to a photofinishing service or inserted into the memory-card slot of DPOF compatible printers. When a DPOF file is created, a misc. folder is automatically created on the memory card to store it (p. 98).

DPOF SETUP

The DPOF-set menu option is used to create an order for standard prints from still images on the memory card. Single, multiple, or all images can be printed. Print orders are created in section 3 of the playback menu (p. 71). The print menu option has four settings:

This frame	To create a DPOF file for the displayed or highlighted image.
All frames	To create a DPOF file for all images on the memory card.
Marked frames	To chose a group of images to be printed or when the number of copies of each image varies. When selected, the frame selection screen appears. Use the left/right keys of the controller to highlight an image to be printed. Pressing the up key will mark the image with the print indicator. The number next to the indicator shows the number of copies that will be printed. Pressing the up key increases the number of copies, pressing the down key decreases the number. A maximum of nine copies can be ordered. To deselect an image for printing, press the down key until the number of copies reaches zero and the print indicator disappears. Continue until all the images to be printed are marked. Press the central button of the controller to create the DPOF file, or press the menu button to cancel the operation and return to the playback menu.
Cancel all	To delete the DPOF file.

When the this-frame or all-frames setting is chosen, a screen appears requesting the number of copies of each image; a maximum of nine copies can be ordered. Use the up/down keys of the controller to set the required number of copies. If the all-frames setting was used to create a print order, any additional images recorded afterwards will not be included in the order.

DPOF files created with another camera will be canceled. After the pictures have been printed, the DPOF file will still remain on the memory card and must be canceled manually.

DATE PRINT

To print the date of capture with each image with a DPOF compatible printer, turn the section 3 menu option on. To cancel date print, simply turn the option off. How and where the date is printed varies with the printer.

INDEX PRINT

To create an index print of all the images on the card, select "Yes" in the index print option in section 3 of the playback menu. To cancel an index print, simply change the setting to "No."

If an index-print order is created, any additional images saved afterwards on the card will not be included in the index print. The number of images printed per sheet differs between printers. The information printed with the thumbnails can vary.

FOLDER NAME

All recorded images are stored in folders on the memory card. Two folder-name formats are available in section 2 of the setup menu, standard and date.

Standard folders have an eight character name. The initial folder is named 100KM008. The first three digits are the folder's serial number, which will increase by one each time a new folder is created. The next two letters refer to Konica Minolta, and the last three numbers indicate the camera used; 008 indicates a DiMAGE Z10.

A date folder name also starts with the three digit serial number and is followed by one register for the year, two register for the month, and two registers for the day: 101YMMDD. The folder 10140625 was created in 2004 on June 25 ^th .

100KM008

(Standard)

10140625
(Date)

With the date folder format selected, when an image is recorded, a new folder with the day's date is created. All images recorded that day are placed in that folder. Images recorded on a different day are placed in a new folder with the corresponding date. If the file number memory function is off (p. 87), when a new folder is created, the serial number in the image-file name is reset to 0001. If file number memory function is on, the serial number in the image-file is one greater than the last image saved. For more information on folder organization and file names, see page 98.

NOISE REDUCTION

This function reduces the affect of dark noise caused by long exposures. Noise reduction is only applied to exposures of one second or longer. Dark-frame subtraction is applied to each image after it is captured. The processing time varies from image to image; a message will be displayed during this period. Noise reduction can be turned off in section 2 of the setup menu.

Dcim

Misc

Files and folders on the memory card can be deleted using the computer. Never format the memory card from the computer; always use the camera to format the card. Only files recorded by the camera should be stored on the memory card.

From left to right: standard folder, date folder, copy folder, e-mail copy folder.

PICT0001.JPG Still image

PICT0002.MOV Movie clip

Image-file names begin with "PICT" followed by a four-digit file number and a .jpg or .mov extension. To copying images, simply drag and drop the file icon into a location in the computer.

Copy images (p. 76) are placed in a folder with a name ending in “CP.” E-mail Copy images are placed in a folder ending in “EM.” When a new folder is created, the first three digits in the folder name is one greater than the largest folder number on the card. When the index number in the image file name exceeds 9,999, a new folder is created with a number one greater than the greatest folder number on the memory card: e.g. from 100KM008 to 101KM008.

The number in the image file name may not correspond to the frame number of the image. As images are deleted in the camera, the frame counter will adjust itself to show the number of images on the card and reassign the frame numbers accordingly. The serial numbers used with image files will not change when an image is deleted. When a new image is recorded, it will be assigned a number one greater than the largest serial number in the folder. File serial numbers can be controlled with the file-number-memory function in section 2 of the setup menu (p. 87).

Image files contain Exif tag data. This data includes the time and date the image was recorded as well as the camera settings used. This data can be viewed with the camera or the DiMAGE Viewer software.

If a camera image is opened in an image-processing application that does not support Exif tags, and then the image is saved overwriting the original data, the Exif tag information is erased. Some Exif compatible applications rewrite the Exif data preventing the DiMAGE Viewer from reading it. When using software other than the DiMAGE Viewer, always make a backup copy of the image files to protect the Exif tag data.

To view images correctly on your computer, the monitor's color space may need to be adjusted. Refer to your computer manual on how to calibrate the display to the following requirements: sRGB, with a color temperature of 6500K, and a gamma of 2.2. Changes made to the captured image with the camera's contrast controls will affect any color-matching software in use.

AUTO POWER SAVE - DATA-TRANSFER MODE

When connected to a computer or printer, if the camera does not receive a read or write command within ten minutes, it will shut down to save power. When the camera shuts down, an unsafe-removal-of-device warning may appear on the computer monitor. Click "OK." Neither the camera or computer will be damaged in this operation.

APPENDIX

TROUBLESHOOTING

The section covers minor problems with basic camera operation. For major problems or damage, or if a problem continues to reoccur frequently, contact a Konica Minolta service facility.

Problem	Symptom	Cause	Solution
This camera will not work.	Nothing displayed on the monitors.	The batteries are dead.	Replace batteries (p. 13)
		AA Ni-MH batteries are inserted incorrectly.	Reinsert the batteries taking care that the negative and positive terminals are oriented as indicated on the inside of the battery chamber door (p. 13).
		The AC adapter is not connected properly.	Check that the adapter is connected to the camera and a live electrical outlet (p. 15).
Shutter will not release.	“000” is displayed on the frame counter.	Memory card is full and unable to store an image at the image-quality or image-size setting on the camera.	Insert a new memory card (p. 16), delete some images (p. 31), or change the image-quality or image-size setting (p. 51).
	No-card warning appears on the monitors.	No memory card in the camera.	Insert a memory card (p. 16).
Pictures are not sharp.	Focus signal is red.	Subject is too close.	Make sure the subject is within the autofocus range (p. 24) or use the macro mode (p. 35).
		The camera is in macro mode.	Cancel the macro mode setting (p. 35).
		A special situation is preventing the autofocus system from focusing (p. 25).	Use the focus-lock function to focus on an object at the same distance as the subject (p. 24) or use manual focus (p. 54).
	Pictures are taken indoors or in low-light situations without flash.	Slow shutter speeds result in blurred images when the camera is hand-held.	Use a tripod, change the camera sensitivity to a higher setting (p. 59), or use the flash (p. 26).
While using flash, the pictures are too dark.	The subject is beyond the flash range (p. 27, 59).		Move closer to the subject or change the camera sensitivity to a higher setting (p. 59).

The camera temperature rises with extended periods of use. Care should be taken to avoid burns when handling the camera, batteries, or memory card.

If the camera does not function normally or the system error message appears, turn the camera off, remove and reinsert the batteries, or unplug and reconnect the AC adapter. If the camera has become hot with extended use, wait for it to cool before removing or disconnecting the power supply. Always turn the camera off using the main switch otherwise the memory card may be damaged and the camera reset.

This manual contains information on products and accessories available at the time of printing. To obtain compatibility information on products not contained in this manual, contact a Konica Minolta service facility.

CARE AND STORAGE

Read this section in its entirety to get the best results from your camera. With proper care, your camera will provide years of service.

Camera care

• Do not subject the camera to shock or impact.
• Turn off the camera when transporting.
• This camera is neither waterproof nor splashproof. Inserting or removing batteries or the memory card, or operating the camera with wet hands may damage the camera.
• When at the beach or near water, take care not to expose the camera to water or sand. Water, sand, dust, or salt can damage the camera.
• Do not leave the camera under direct sunlight. Do not point the lens directly at the sun; the CCD may be damaged.

Storage

• Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from dust and chemicals. For long periods of disuse, store the camera in an airtight container with a silica-gel drying agent.
• Remove the batteries and memory card from the camera when not in use for extended periods.
• Do not store the camera in an area with naphthalene or mothballs.
• During long periods of storage, operate the camera occasionally. When taking the camera out of storage, check that the camera is functioning properly before using.

Cleaning

• If the camera or the outside of the lens or flash surface or AF window is dirty, gently wipe it with a soft, clean, dry cloth. If the camera or lens comes in contact with sand, gently blow away loose particles. Wiping may scratch the surface.
• To clean the lens surface, first blow away any dust or sand, then gently wipe the lens with a cloth or tissue designed for optics. Use lens-cleaning fluid if necessary.
• Never use organic solvents to clean the camera.
• Never touch the lens or flash surface or AF window your fingers.

LCD monitor care

• The LCD monitor is manufactured using high-precision technology and more than 99.99% of the pixels operate properly. Less than 0.01% of the monitor pixels are displayed as color or bright points; this is not monitor defect and does not affect the recorded image.
• Do not apply pressure to the surface of the LCD monitor; it may be permanently damaged.
• In cold temperatures, the LCD monitor may become temporarily dark. When the camera warms up, the display will function normally.
• If fingerprints are on the LCD monitor, gently wipe with a soft, clean, dry cloth.

Batteries

• Battery performance decreases with temperature. In cold environments, we recommend keeping spare batteries in a warm place, such as the inside of a coat. Batteries can recover their power when they warm up.
• If batteries have been exhausted when used in the camera, do not reload them even if their charge seems to recover over time. These batteries will interfere with normal camera operation.
• A special built-in long-life battery supplies power to the clock and memory when the camera is off. If the camera resets each time it is turned off, the battery is exhausted. The battery must be replaced at a Konica Minolta service facility.

Operating temperatures and conditions

• This camera has been designed for use in temperatures from 0^ to 40^ (32°F to 104^ ).
• Never leave the camera exposed to extreme high temperatures, such as in a car parked in the sun, or to extreme humidity.
• When taking the camera from a cold to a warm environment, place it in a sealed plastic bag to prevent condensation from forming. Allow the camera to come to room temperature before removing it from the bag.

Memory cards

SD Memory Cards and MultiMediaCards are manufactured with precision electronic components. The following may cause data loss or damage:

• Improper use of the card.
• Bending, dropping, or subjecting the card to impact.
• Heat, moisture, and direct sunlight.
• Static electrical discharge or electromagnetic fields near the card.
• Removing the card or interrupting the power supply while the camera or a computer is accessing the card (reading, writing, formatting, etc.).
• Touching the electrical contacts of the card with your fingers or metal objects.
• Using the card beyond its life. Purchasing a new card periodically may be necessary.

The response time is longer with MultiMediaCards compared with SD Memory Cards. This is not a defect, but rather due to the specifications of the cards. When using large capacity cards, some operations like deletion may take longer.

SD Memory Cards have a write-protect switch to prevent image data from being deleted. By sliding the switch to the bottom of the card, the data will be protected. Images cannot be recorded when the card is protected. If an attempt is made to record or delete an image with the camera, the card-locked message will appear on the monitor.

Memory cards should not be used to permanently store image data. Always make a copy of camera files on an appropriate storage device or recording media. Konica Minolta has no responsibility for any loss or damage to data.
