Power Supply and Battery

* Confirm your battery type before reading the following descriptions.

The following explains proper use of batteries and how to prolong their life. Incorrect use of batteries can cause shorter battery life, as well as leakage, excessive heat, fire or explosion.

1 Camera uses the Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery

* When shipped, the battery is not fully charged. Always charge the battery before using it.
* When carrying the battery, install it in a digital camera or keep it in the soft case.

Battery Features

• The battery gradually loses its charge even when not used. Use a battery that has been charged recently (in the last day or two) to take pictures.
  • To maximize the life of the battery, turn the camera off as quickly as possible when it is not being used.
• The number of available frames will be lower in cold locations or at low temperatures. Take along a spare fully charged battery. You can also increase the amount of power produced by putting the battery in your pocket or another warm place to heat it and then loading it into the camera just before you take a picture.

If you are using a heating pad, take care not to place the battery directly against the pad. The camera may not operate if you use a depleted battery in cold conditions.

■ Charging the Battery

• You can charge the battery using the battery charger (included).
• The battery can be charged at ambient temperatures between 0^ C and +40^ C ( +32^ F and +104^ F). Refer to the Owner's Manual for the time of charging battery.
• You should charge the battery at an ambient temperature between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and +95°F). If you charge the battery at a temperature outside this range, charging takes longer because the performance of the battery is impaired.
• You cannot charge the battery at temperatures of 0^ C (+32°F) or below.
• The Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery does not need to be fully discharged or exhausted flat before being charged.
• The battery may feel warm after it has been charged or immediately after being used. This is perfectly normal.
• Do not recharge a fully charged battery.

Battery Life

At normal temperatures, the battery can be used at least 300 times. If the time for which the battery provides power shortens markedly, this indicates that the battery has reached the end of its effective life and should be replaced.

Notes on storage

• If a battery is stored for long periods while charged, the performance of the battery can be impaired. If the battery will not be used for some time, run the battery out before storing it.
• If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period of time, remove the battery from the camera.
• Store the battery in a cool place.

- The battery should be stored in a dry location with an ambient temperature between +15°C and +25°C (+59°F and +77°F).

- Do not leave the battery in hot or extremely cold places.

■ Handling the Battery Cautions for Your Safety:

• Do not carry or store battery with metal objects such as necklaces or hairpins.
• Do not heat the battery or throw it into a fire.
• Do not attempt to take apart or change the battery.

• Do not recharge the battery with chargers other those specified.

• Dispose of used battery promptly.

• Do not drop the battery or otherwise subject it to strong impacts.
• Do not expose the battery to water.
  • Always keep the battery terminals clean.
• Do not store batteries in hot places. Also, if you use the battery for a long period, the camera body and the battery itself will become warm. This is normal. Use the AC power adapter if you are taking pictures or viewing images for a long period of time.

2 Camera uses AA-size alkaline or Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride) rechargeable batteries

* For details on the batteries that you can use, refer to the Owner's Manual of your camera.

■ Cautions for Using Battery

• Do not heat the batteries or throw them into a fire.
• Do not carry or store batteries with metal objects such as necklaces or hairpins.
• Do not expose the batteries to water, and keep batteries from getting wet or stored in moist locations.
• Do not attempt to take apart or change the batteries, including battery casings.
• Do not subject the batteries to strong impacts.

• Do not use batteries that are leaking, deformed, discolored.

• Do not store batteries in warm or humid places.

• Keep the batteries out of reach of babies and small children.
• Make sure that the battery polarity ( and ) is correct.
• Do not use new with used batteries. Do not use charged and discharged batteries together.
• Do not use different types or brands of batteries at the same time.
• If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period of time, remove the batteries from the camera. Note if the camera is left with the batteries removed, the time and date settings are cleared.
• The batteries feel warm right after being used. Before removing the batteries, turn the camera off and wait for the batteries to cool down.
• Since batteries do not work well in cold weather or locations, warm the batteries by placing them inside your garments before use. Batteries do not work well when cold. They will work again when the temperature returns to normal.
• Soil (such as fingerprints) on the battery terminals makes the batteries charge less reducing the number of images. Carefully wipe the battery terminals with a soft dry cloth before loading.

If any liquid at all leaks from the batteries, wipe the battery compartment thoroughly and then load new batteries.
If any battery fluid comes into contact with your hands or clothing, flush the area thoroughly with water. Note that battery fluid can cause loss of eyesight if it gets into your eyes. If this occurs, do not rub your eyes. Flush the fluid out with clean water and contact your physician for treatment.

■ Using the AA-size Ni-MH batteries correctly

- Ni-MH batteries left unused in storage for long periods can become "deactivated". Also, repeatedly charging Ni-MH batteries that are only partially discharged can cause them to suffer from the "memory effect". Ni-MH batteries that are "deactivated" or affected by "memory" suffer from the problem of only providing power for a short time after being charged. To prevent this problem, discharge and recharge them several times using the camera's "Discharging rechargeable batteries" function.

Deactivation and memory are specific to Ni-MH batteries and are not in fact battery faults.

See Owner's Manual for the procedure for "Discharging rechargeable batteries".

CAUTION

Do not use the "Discharging rechargeable batteries" function when alkaline batteries being used.

• To charge Ni-MH batteries, use the quick battery charger (sold separately). Refer to the instructions supplied with the charger to make sure that the charger is used correctly.
• Do not use the battery charger to charge other batteries.
• Note that the batteries feel warm after being charged.
• Due to the way the camera is constructed, a small amount of current is used even when the camera is turned off. Note in particular that leaving Ni-MH batteries in the camera for a long period will over-discharge the batteries and may render them unusable even after recharging.
• Ni-MH batteries will self-discharge even when not used, and the time for which they can be used may be shortened as a result.
• Ni-MH batteries will deteriorate rapidly if over-discharged (e.g. by discharging the batteries in a flashlight). Use the "Discharging rechargeable batteries" function provided in the camera to discharge the batteries.

- Ni-MH batteries have a limited service life. If a battery can only be used for a short time even after repeated discharge-charge cycles, it may have reached the end of its service life.

■ Disposing of Batteries

- When disposing of batteries, do so in accordance with your local waste disposal regulations.

Caution

Turn the camera off before removing the battery.

Cautions

• Do not affix stickers or other objects to the battery. Failure to observe this precaution could make it impossible to remove the battery from the camera.
• Do not short the battery terminals. The battery could overheat.
• Read the cautions on page vi.
• Use only battery chargers designated for use with the battery. Failure to observe this precaution could result in product malfunction.
• Do not remove the labels from the battery or attempt to split or peel the outer casing.
• The battery gradually loses its charge when not in use. Charge the battery one or two days before use.

Tips: Using an AC Power Adapter

• The camera can be powered by an optional AC power adapter and DC coupler (sold separately). See the manuals provided with the AC power adapter and DC coupler for details.
• If the camera is powered by an AC power adapter, demo mode instructions will be displayed when the camera is turned on. Selecting demo mode starts a slide show; to cancel, press the shutter button.

Inserting a Memory Card

Although the camera can store pictures in internal memory, optional SD memory cards (sold separately) can be used to store additional pictures.

When no memory card is inserted, 📄 appears in the monitor and internal memory is used for recording and playback. Note that because camera malfunction could cause internal memory to become corrupted, the pictures in internal memory should periodically be transferred to a computer and saved on the computer hard disk or on removable media such as CDs or DVDs. The pictures in internal memory can also be copied to a memory card (see page 80). To prevent internal memory from becoming full, be sure to delete pictures when they are no longer needed.

When a memory card is inserted as described below, the card will be used for recording and playback.

■ Compatible Memory Cards

FUJIFILM and SanDisk SD and SDHC memory cards have been approved for use in the camera. A complete list of approved memory cards is available at http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_cameras/index.html. Operation is not guaranteed with other cards. The camera can not be used with xD-Picture Cards or MultiMediaCard (MMC) devices.

Caution

SD memory cards can be locked, making it impossible to format the card or to record or delete images. Before inserting an SD memory card, slide the write-protect switch to the unlocked position.

Cautions

• The memory card may spring out if you remove your finger immediately after pushing the card in.
• Memory cards may be warm to the touch after being removed from the camera. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

Cautions

• Do not turn the camera off or remove the memory card while the memory card is being formatted or data are being recorded to or deleted from the card. Failure to observe this precaution could damage the card.
• Format SD memory cards before first use, and be sure to reformat all memory cards after using them in a computer or other device. For more information on formatting memory cards, see page 90.
• Memory cards are small and can be swallowed; keep out of reach of children. If a child swallows a memory card, seek medical assistance immediately.
• miniSD or microSD adapters that are larger or smaller than the standard dimensions of an SD card may not eject normally; if the card does not eject, take the camera to an authorized service representative. Do not forcibly remove the card.
• Do not affix labels to memory cards. Peeling labels can cause camera malfunction.
• Movie recording may be interrupted with some types of SD memory card. Use a card with a class 4 write speed (4 MB/s) or better when shooting HD movies.
• The data in internal memory may be erased or corrupted when the camera is repaired. Please note that the repairer will be able to view pictures in internal memory.
• Formatting a memory card or internal memory in the camera creates a folder in which pictures are stored. Do not rename or delete this folder or use a computer or other device to edit, delete, or rename image files. Always use the camera to delete pictures from memory cards and internal memory; before editing or renaming files, copy them to a computer and edit or rename the copies, not the originals.

Caution

Depending on camera settings, the camera may have to be panned through a greater or lesser angle than selected. Shooting may be interrupted if the camera is panned too quickly or too slowly. Panning the camera in a direction other than that shown by the arrow cancels shooting.

Tip

The completed panorama can be viewed on the camera (pg. 58).

Cautions

• Panoramas are created from multiple frames. The camera may in some cases be unable to stitch the frames together perfectly.
• The desired results may not be achieved with moving subjects, subjects close to the camera, unvarying subjects such as the sky or a field of grass, subjects that are in constant motion, such as waves and waterfalls, or subjects that undergo marked changes in brightness. Panoramas may be blurred if the subject is poorly lit.

For Best Results

For best results, move the camera in a small circle at a steady speed, keeping the camera horizontal and being careful only to pan in the direction shown by the guides. If the desired results are not achieved, try panning at a different speed.

Printing Panoramas

Depending on the page size and the size of the panorama, panoramas may print with their edges cropped out or with wide margins at the top and bottom or at both sides.

Intelligent Face Detection and Red-Eye Removal

Intelligent Face Detection automatically detects human faces anywhere in the frame and sets focus and exposure for shots that emphasize portrait subjects. Choose to prevent the camera from focusing on the background when taking group portraits, or to remove “red-eye” caused by the flash.

1 Turn Intelligent Face Detection on.

Tap MENU to display the shooting menu and tap [●] (Face Detec.).

AUTO OFF MENU [+] DISP

The options shown at right will be displayed. Tap to select.

2 Frame the picture.

Frame the picture in vertical or horizontal orientation. If a face is detected, it will be indicated by a green border. If there is more than one

Green border

face in the frame, the camera will select the face closest to the center; other faces are indicated by white borders.

3 Focus.

Press the shutter button halfway to set focus and exposure for the subject in the green border.

Caution

In some modes, the camera may set exposure for the frame as a whole rather than the portrait subject. If no face is detected when the shutter button is pressed halfway (pg. 100), the camera will focus on the subject at the center of the display and red-eye will not be removed.

4 Shoot.

Press the shutter button all the way down to shoot.

Caution

If the subject moves as the shutter button is pressed, their face may not be in the area indicated by the green border when the picture is taken.

If 📄 FACE DETECTION ON RED EYE REMOVAL ON is selected, the picture will be processed to reduce red-eye before it is recorded.

Intelligent Face Detection

Intelligent Face Detection is recommended when using the self-timer for group- or self-portraits (pg. 34).

When setting focus and exposure, the camera gives priority to subjects in its face recognition database (pg. 40), and subjects identified in this manner can later be located using image search (pg. 54). When a picture taken with Intelligent Face Detection is displayed, the camera can automatically select faces for playback zoom (pg. 45), red-eye removal (pg. 53), slide shows (pg. 81), and when ZOOM (CONTINUOUS) is selected for IMAGE DISP. (pg. 87).

Using the Flash (Super-Intelligent Flash)

When the flash is used, the camera's Super-Intelligent Flash system instantly analyzes the scene based on such factors as the brightness of the subject, its position in the frame, and its distance from the camera. Flash output and sensitivity are adjusted to ensure that the main subject is correctly exposed while preserving the effects of ambient background lighting, even in dimly-lit indoor scenes. Use the flash when lighting is poor, for example when shooting at night or indoors under low light.

1 Choose a flash mode.

Tap the flash mode icon to display a menu of flash modes and tap to select the desired mode (depending on camera settings, some modes may not be available; see page 21 of the Basic Manual).

2 Focus.

Press the shutter button halfway to focus. If the flash will fire, ⏻ will be displayed when the shutter button is pressed halfway. At slow shutter speeds, ⚙️ will appear in the display to warn that pictures may be blurred; use of a tripod is recommended.

Note

When using the flash to take pictures in "tall" (portrait) orientation, we recommend that you hold the camera with the flash above the lens.

3 Shoot.

Press the shutter button the rest of the way down to shoot.

Caution

The flash may fire several times with each shot. Do not move the camera until shooting is complete.

Red-Eye Removal

When 📄 FACE DETECTION ON RED EYE REMOVAL ON is selected for Intelligent Face Detection (pg. 30), red-eye removal (💡) is available in RED EYE REDUCTION (💡AUTO), FORCED FLASH (💡⚡), and RED EYE & SLOW (💡SLOW) modes. Red-eye removal minimizes "red-eye" caused when light from the flash is reflected from the subject's retinas as shown in the illustration at right.

The camera offers a “couple timer” for self-portraits taken with a friend, a “group timer” for group portraits, an “auto release timer” for baby portraits, a ten-second timer (pg. 36) that allows photographers to appear in their own photographs, and a two-second timer (pg. 36) that can be used to avoid blur caused by the camera moving when the shutter button is pressed.

Tap the self-timer icon to display self-timer options and tap to select.

Option	Description

Intelligent Face Detection

Because it ensures that the faces of portrait subjects will be in focus, Intelligent Face Detection (pg. 30) is recommended when using the self-timer for group portraits or self-portraits. To use the self-timer with Intelligent Face Detection, turn Intelligent Face Detection on, set the timer as described in Step 1, and then press the shutter button all the way down to start the timer. The camera will detect faces while the timer is counting down and adjust focus and exposure immediately before the shutter is released.

Autofocus

Although the camera boasts a high-precision autofocus system, it may be unable to focus on the subjects listed below. If the camera is unable to focus using autofocus, use focus lock (pg. 38) to focus on another subject at the same distance and then recompose the photograph.

• Very shiny subjects such as mirrors or car bodies.

- Fast-moving subjects.

• Subjects photographed through a window or other reflective object.
• Dark subjects and subjects that absorb rather than reflect light, such as hair or fur.
• Insubstantial subjects, such as smoke or flame.

• Subjects that show little contrast with the background (for example, subjects in clothing that is the same color as the background).

• Subjects positioned in front of or behind a high-contrast object that is also in the focus frame (for example, a subject photographed against a backdrop of highly contrasting elements).

• Subjects positioned at some distance in front of or behind an object that is also in the focus frame (for example, a subject in a cage, where the both the subject and the bars of the cage are in the focus frame).
• Subjects dominated by regular geometric patterns, such as the windows in an office building.
• Subjects that contain many fine details, such as a field of flowers or other subjects that are small or lack variation in brightness.

Hybrid Autofocus

The camera's hybrid autofocus system ensures fast focus, particularly when a bright, high-contrast subject is positioned in the center of the frame.

The camera can store information on the face and personal details (name, relationship, and birth date) of portrait subjects and assign these subjects priority for Intelligent Face Detection (pg. 30) or display their names and other information during playback (pg. 44).

When Intelligent Face Detection (pg. 30) is on and the frame contains multiple subjects from the face recognition database, the camera displays the name of the subject that will be used to set focus and exposure (the subject shown by the green frame). If no name is entered, the camera will show “----”. Subjects identified using face recognition but not used to set focus and exposure are shown by orange frames, other subjects by white frames.

Caution

Face recognition may not function as expected if the subject is not facing the camera, if only part of the subject's face is in the frame, or if details of the subject's face or expression differ markedly from those recorded in the database.

For more information on using the supplied software, start the application and select the appropriate option from the Help menu.

Cautions

• If a memory card containing a large number of images is inserted, there may be a delay before the software starts and you may be unable to import or save images. Use a memory card reader to transfer pictures.
• Make sure that the computer does not display a message stating that copying is in progress and that the indicator lamp is out before turning the camera off or disconnecting the USB cable (if the number of images copied is very large, the indicator lamp may remain lit after the message has cleared from the computer display). Failure to observe this precaution could result in loss of data or damage to internal memory or the memory card.
• Disconnect the camera before inserting or removing memory cards.
• In some cases, it may not be possible to access pictures saved to a network server using the supplied software in the same way as on a standalone computer.
• The user bears all applicable fees charged by the phone company or Internet service provider when using services that require an Internet connection.

Disconnecting the Camera

After confirming that the indicator lamp is out, follow the on-screen instructions to turn the camera off and disconnect the USB cable.

Uninstalling the Supplied Software

Only uninstall the supplied software when it is no longer required or before beginning reinstallation. After quitting the software and disconnecting the camera, drag the "FinePixViewer" folder from "Applications" into the Trash and select Empty Trash in the Finder menu (Macintosh), or open the control panel and use "Programs and Features" (Windows 7/Windows Vista) or "Add or Remove Programs" (Windows XP) to uninstall MyFinePix Studio.

Caring for the Camera

To ensure continued enjoyment of the product, observe the following precautions.

Storage and Use

If the camera will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery and memory card. Do not store or use the camera in locations that are:

• exposed to rain, steam, or smoke
• very humid or extremely dusty
- exposed to direct sunlight or very high temperatures, such as in a closed vehicle on a sunny day
• extremely cold
- subject to strong vibration
- exposed to strong magnetic fields, such as near a broadcasting antenna, power line, radar emitter, motor, transformer, or magnet
- in contact with volatile chemicals such as pesticides
- next to rubber or vinyl products

Water and Sand

Exposure to water and sand can also damage the camera and its internal circuitry and mechanisms. When using the camera at the beach or seaside, avoid exposing the camera to water or sand. Do not place the camera on a wet surface.

Condensation

Sudden increases in temperature, such as occur when entering a heated building on a cold day, can cause condensation inside the camera. If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait an hour before turning it on again. If condensation forms on the memory card, remove the card and wait for the condensation to dissipate.

Cleaning

Use a blower to remove dust from the lens and monitor, then gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Any remaining stains can be removed by wiping gently with a piece of FUJIFILM lens-cleaning paper to which a small amount of lens-cleaning fluid has been applied. Care should be taken to avoid scratching the lens or monitor. The camera body can be cleaned with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.

Traveling

Keep the camera in your carry-on baggage. Checked baggage may suffer violent shocks that could damage the camera.

Glossary

Digital zoom: Unlike optical zoom, digital zoom does not increase the amount of visible detail. Instead, details visible using optical zoom are simply enlarged, producing a slightly "grainy" image.

EV (Exposure Value): The exposure value is determined by the sensitivity of the image sensor and the amount of light that enters the camera while the image sensor is exposed. Each time the amount of light doubles, EV increases by one; each time the amount of light is halved, EV decreases by one. The amount of light entering the camera can be controlled by adjusting aperture and shutter speed.

Exif Print: A standard that allows information stored with pictures to be used for optimal color reproduction during printing.

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group): A compressed file format for color images. The higher the compression rate, the greater the loss of information and more noticeable drop in quality when the picture is displayed.

Motion JPEG: An AVI (Audio Video Interleave) format that stores images and sound in a single file, with the images recorded in JPEG format. Motion JPEG files can be played in QuickTime 3.0 or later.

Smear: A phenomenon specific to CCDs which causes white streaks to appear when very bright light sources, such as the sun or reflected sunlight, appear in the frame.

White balance: The human brain automatically adapts to changes in the color of light, with the result that objects that appear white under one light source still appear white when the color of the light source changes. Digital cameras can mimic this adjustment by processing images according to the color of the light source. This process is known as “white balance.”

Internal Memory/Memory Card Capacity

The following table shows the recording time or number of pictures available at different image sizes. All figures are approximate; file size varies with the scene recorded, producing wide variations in the number of files that can be stored. The number of exposures or length remaining may not diminish at an even rate. A limited number of test pictures can be taken when no memory card is inserted.
