1 Getting Ready

LOADING THE BATTERY AND THE MEDIA

Compatible Batteries

Use only the special Rechargeable Battery NP-40. The use of other brands of rechargeable battery could cause faults or damage to the camera.

● NP-40 Rechargeable Battery (1)

The battery is not fully charged at shipment and must be fully charged before being used.
Do not stick labels onto the battery as this could cause the battery to become jammed inside the camera.
! See P.92, 93 for note on the battery.

1

Slide the battery cover out to open it.

If you open the battery cover while the camera is switched on, the camera is switched off.
Do not apply excessive force to the battery cover.

Do not open the battery cover while the camera is still switched on. This could damage the xD-Picture Card or corrupt the image files on the xD-Picture Card.

2

Hold the battery so that the arrow markings are aligned, use your finger to pull the battery release catch in the direction shown and insert the battery. Check that the battery is firmly held in place.

3

Align the gold mark on the xD-Picture Card slot with the gold contact area on the xD-Picture Card and then push the card firmly all the way into the slot.

The xD-Picture Card will not slide fully into the slot if it is inserted facing the wrong way. Be careful not to apply undue force to the xD-Picture Card.

4

Close the battery cover.

When you want to replace the xD-Picture Card

When you push the xD-Picture Card into the slot and then slowly remove your finger, the lock is released and the xD-Picture Card is pushed out.
◆ Checking the remaining battery charge ◆

Switch the camera on and check that no battery level warning (☐, ☐ or ☐) is displayed on the screen (LCD monitor). If no icon is displayed, there is ample charge left in the battery.

① There is ample remaining battery charge. (Only displayed for approximately 3 seconds when the camera is switched on or the mode is changed.)
② The battery is approximately half charged. (Only displayed for approximately 3 seconds when the camera is switched on or the mode is changed.)
③ Battery charge low. Replace or recharge the battery as it will run out shortly.
④ The battery is exhausted. The display will shortly go blank and the camera will stop working. Replace or recharge the battery.

☐, ☐ and ☐ are displayed as small icons on the right-hand side of the LCD monitor. ☐ appears as a large icon on the LCD monitor.

The information above is an approximate guide for photography mode. In other camera modes, the transition from "□" to "□" may occur more quickly.
Batteries with no remaining charge (☐ blinking red) will cause problems such as loss of power while the lens is still extended. Always charge the battery before use.
Due to the nature of the battery, the battery low warning may appear early when the camera is used in cold locations. This is normal and does not indicate a fault. Try warming the battery in your pocket or a similar location before use.

Power Off Function

If the camera is not used in any way for approx. 30 seconds when the camera functions are enabled, this function temporarily switches features such as the LCD monitor off to reduce power consumption ( ≈ .72 ). If the camera is then left unused for a further period (2 or 5 minutes), the Auto Power Off function automatically switches the camera off. To switch the camera back on, set the Power switch to "OFF" briefly and then back to "☐" or "☐".

CHARGING THE BATTERY

1

Check that the camera is switched off. Plug the AC power adapter connector into the DC IN 5V socket on the camera and then plug the adapter itself into the main power outlet.

2

Pure mechanical component diagram without any text, numbers, or symbols

The self-timer lamp lights (red) and battery charging begins. When charging is completed, the self-timer lamp switches off.
● Full recharging times for completely depleted battery
(At an ambient temperature of 23°C
+2°C 73.4°F 35.6°F
NP-40: Approx. 2 hours
Charging times increase at low temperatures.
2 If the self-timer lamp blinks during charging, a charging error has occurred and the battery cannot be charged. If this occurs, see P.97.
Switching the camera on during charging interrupts the charging
You can charge the battery more quickly by using the BC-65 Battery Charger (sold separately) (P.91).

Using the AC Power Adapter

Use the AC power adapter to avoid losing power at inconvenient times, such as when you are downloading photographed images to your computer. Using the AC power adapter also allows you to take pictures and play back images without worrying about depleting the battery.

● Compatible AC power adapters AC-5VW/AC-5VH/AC-5VS/AC-5VHS

Use only the FUJIFILM products listed on the left.

See P.93 for notes on using the AC power adapter

Only connect or disconnect the AC power adapter when the camera is switched off.

Connecting or disconnecting the AC power adapter while the camera is switched on temporarily interrupts the power supply to the camera, so that images or movies being shot at the time are not recorded. Failing to switch the camera off first can also result in damage to the xD-Picture Card or malfunctions during PC connection.

The shape of the plug and socket-outlet depends on the country of use.

SWITCHING ON AND OFF SETTING THE DATE AND TIME

1

Slide the POWER switch to turn the camera on and off. When you switch the camera on, the viewfinder lamp lights (green) and the self timer lamp lights.

For subjects closer than 60 cm (2.0 ft.), use Macro photography (P.43).

Note that you cannot switch the LCD monitor off in Macro mode.

If a "CARD ERROR", "CARD NOT INTENDED", "CARD FULL" or "NO CARD" message appears, see P.95.

Brace your elbows against your sides and hold the camera with both hands. Position the thumb of your right hand so that it is handy for using the zoom.

The image will be blurred if the camera moves when taking the picture (camera shake). Use a tripod to avoid camera shake, particularly for shots in dark locations when the flash is set to Suppressed Flash mode.

There may be some unevenness in the brightness at the lower edge of the LCD monitor. This is normal and does not indicate a fault. This does not affect the photographed image.

Take care to hold the camera so that your fingers or the strap do not cover the lens, flash AF assist illuminator or flash control sensor. If the lens, flash or flash control sensor is obscured by your fingers or the camera strap, you may not be able to obtain the correct brightness (exposure) for your shot.

Check that the lens is clean. If it is dirty, clean the lens as described on P.92.

If you use the flash in very dusty conditions or when it is snowing, white dots may appear in the image due to the flash reflecting off the dust particles or snowflakes. Try taking the shot using Suppressed Flash mode.

4

If you want to zoom in on your subject, press "T" (telephoto) button. To widen the angle of your shot, press "W" (wide-angle) button. When you do this, the "zoom bar" is displayed on the screen.

● Focal length of the optical zoom (35 mm camera equivalent)

Approx. 35 mm-105 mm Max. zoom scale: 3×

Zooming pauses briefly when it switches between optical zoom and digital zoom (→P.24). Press the same zoom button again to switch zoom modes.

5

Using the LCD monitor or viewfinder, position the subject at or near the center of the image.

If the camera will not focus successfully on the subject, set the focus mode to "AF (CENTER)" and use AF/AE lock to take the shot (P.56).

The image shown on the LCD monitor before you take the shot may differ in its brightness, color, etc. from the image actually recorded. If necessary, play back the recorded image to check it (P.25).

To frame your shot precisely, you should take the picture using the LCD monitor.

in some conditions it may be difficult to see your subject clearly on the LCD monitor. (Such as in sunny weather outdoors or when you are shooting dimly lit scenes.) In such situations, use the viewfinder to take the shot.

6

When you are using the viewfinder to take a picture at a distance of 0.6 m to 1.5 m (2.0 ft. to 4.9 ft.), only the shaded area in the figure is photographed

If the zoom is set to wide-angle, the end of the lens may be visible in the viewfinder. This is normal and is not recorded in the shot.

7

When you press the shutter button down halfway, the camera emits a short double-beep and focuses on your subject. At that point, the AF frame on the LCD monitor becomes smaller and the camera sets the shutter speed and aperture. (the viewfinder lamp (green) changes from blinking to steady)

If the camera does not emit a short double-beep and "TAF" appears on the LCD monitor, the camera cannot focus.

When you press the shutter button down halfway, the image on the LCD monitor freezes briefly. However, this is not the recorded image.

If "TAF" is displayed on the screen (e.g. the shot is too dark for the camera to focus), try standing about 2 m (6.6 ft.) from your subject to take the picture

8

If you press the shutter button down fully without releasing it, the camera makes a clicking noise and takes the picture. The camera then records the photographed image.

There is a slight delay between the shutter button being pressed and the shot being taken. If necessary, playback the shot to check the image.

If you press the shutter button down fully in one motion, the shot is taken without the AF frame changing.

When you take the shot, the viewfinder lamp lights orange (shooting disabled). The viewfinder lamp then changes to green to indicate that the next picture can be taken.

The viewfinder lamp blinks orange while the flash is charging. The LCD monitor may go dark briefly. This is normal and does not indicate a fault.

◆ Subjects Not Suitable for Autofocus ◆

Though the FinePix F700 uses an accurate autofocus mechanism, it may have difficulty focusing or not be able to focus at all on the types of subject and situation listed below. In such cases, the image may be out of focus.

● Very shiny subjects such as a mirror or car body.
- Subjects photographed through glass. - Subjects that do not reflect well, such as hair or fur.
- Subjects with no substance, such as smoke or flames.
- When the subject is dark. - When there is very little contrast between the subject and the background (such as white walls or subjects dressed in the same color as

the background)

● Subjects moving at high speed.
- When there is a high-contrast subject other than the main subject at or near the center of the image and that subject is closer to or further from the camera than the main subject (as when you photograph someone against a background with strongly contrasting elements).

For subjects of this type, use AF/AE lock (→P.56).

NUMBER OF AVAILABLE FRAMES

The number of available shots is displayed on the screen.
See P.28 for information on changing the quality mode.
The default quality mode "◆" set at shipment is 1M

■ Standard number of shots per xD-Picture Card

The table below shows the standard number of available shots for a new xD-Picture Card formatted on the camera. The larger the xD-Picture Card capacity, the greater the divergence between the actual number of available shots and the number shown here. Also, because the amount of data recorded for a shot varies depending on the subject, in some cases the number of shots may decrease by 2 or may remain the same. As a result, the actual number of recordable shots may either decrease or increase.

FOCUSING

Because the focus mode is set to "AUTO (automatic recognition)" when the camera is shipped from the factory, the camera automatically recognizes and focuses on the subject at or near the center of the image.

If you are having difficulty focusing on your intended subject, try using the "AF (CENTER)" focus mode.

Each time you press the Photometry/Focus mode button, the focus mode switches between "AUTO (automatic recognition)" and "AF (CENTER)".

No AF frame appears on the LCD when the focus mode is set to AUTO (automatic recognition). The AF frame appears when you press the shutter button down halfway.

For a high-contrast subject in the center of the screen

When you press the shutter button down halfway, the AF frame appears positioned on the high-contrast subject at or near the center of the image.

When there is no high-contrast subject in the center of the screen

If the camera has difficulty focusing on the subject in AUTO (automatic recognition) mode, set the focusing mode to AF(CENTER) and use AF/AE Lock (→P.56).

Care is required when taking shots using the viewfinder as you cannot check the focus. After taking the shot, play it back to check the focus.

AF AUXILIARY LIGHT

When you press the shutter button down halfway in dimly lit conditions, the camera fires the AF auxiliary light (green) to allow easier focusing.

The camera focuses most easily at a distance of around 2 meters in shots taken with the wide-angle zoom setting.

STILL IMAGE MODE SHOOTING STILL IMAGES (AUTO MODE)

USING THE ZOOM (OPTICAL ZOOM, DIGITAL ZOOM)

You can zoom in and out by pressing the zoom buttons.

The digital zoom can be used with the "8M", "2M" and "1M" quality mode setting.

When zooming switches between optical and digital, the "■" indicator stops. Pressing the same zoom button again starts the "■" indicator moving again.

The digital zoom cannot be used with the "SB" setting. See P.28 for information on changing the quality mode setting
If the shot goes out of focus during zooming, hold the shutter button down halfway to refocus the shot.

The position of the "■" indicator on the zoom bar shows the zooming status.

The area to the right of the separator indicates digital zooming, while the area to the left indicates optical zooming.

The digital zoom can only be used for shots taken using the LCD monitor.

● Optical zoom focal lengths (35 mm camera equivalents)
Approx. 35 mm-105 mm, max. zoom scale: 3×
● Digital zoom focal lengths (35 mm camera equivalents)

BEST FRAMING

You can select the Framing Guideline function in the "☐" still photography mode. The LCD monitor display changes each time you press the "DISP" button. Press the "DISP" button until "Framing Guideline" appears.
When Macro, AF Area or Manual Focus is selected, the LCD monitor cannot be set to OFF.

Important

Always use AF/AE lock when composing a shot. The image may not be focused correctly if you do not use AE/AF lock.

Scene

Use this frame with the main subject positioned at the intersection of two lines or align one of the horizontal lines with the horizon.

This frame allows you to compose your own shots while remaining aware of the subject's size and the balance of the shot.
The framing guideline is not recorded on the image. The lines in the scene frame divide the recorded pixels into 3 roughly equal parts horizontally and vertically. When the image is printed, the resulting print may be shifted slightly from the scene frame.

HOW TO SPECIFY PRINT OPTIONS (DPOF)

DPOF stands for Digital Print Order Format and refers to a format that is used for recording printing specifications for images shot using a digital camera on media such as an xD-Picture Card. The recorded specifications include information on which frames are to be printed.

This section gives a detailed description of how to order your prints with the FinePix F700. On the FinePix F700, you can specify only one print per image in the DPOF settings.

* Note that some printers do not support date and time imprinting or specification of the number of prints.

* Note that the warnings shown below may be displayed while you are specifying the prints.

DPOF SPECIFIED. ERASE OK?

ERASE ALL OK? (→P.62)

When you erase the image, the DPOF setting for that image is deleted at the same time.

STILL IMAGE MODE FOCUSING (DISTANCE)

FOCUSING

The distance from the subject to the camera is referred to as the shooting distance.

When the shooting distance is set correctly and the image appears sharp, the image is focused.

■ Two Focusing Methods: AF and MF.

The mechanisms for focusing are AF (auto focus) and MF (manual focus).

AF: In this mode, the camera automatically focuses on the subject in the AF frame or the subject at or near the center of the image.

MF: Allows you to set the focus manually. See P.55 for details.

■ Causes of Focusing Errors and the Solutions

Cause	Solution
The subject is not suited to AF.	Use AF lock (Focus mode: AF (CENTER))*1 or MF.
The subject is outside the shooting range	Switch Macro mode on or off (*2).
The subject is moving too quickly.	Use MF (pre-setting the shooting distance for a shot (lock pin))

*1 Taking pictures using AF lock

Sequence of three black-and-white photos showing a wetland scene with vegetation and a plant, no text or symbols present.

Capture the subject
Recompose the shot and take the picture.

*2 Switching Macro mode ON/OFF

◆ Subjects Not suitable for Auto Focus ◆

● Very shiny subjects such as a mirror or car body.
● Subjects photographed through glass
- Subjects that do not reflect well, such as hair or fur.
- Subjects with no substance, such as smoke or flames.
- When the subject is dark.
- When there is very little contrast between the subject and the background (such as white

walls or subjects dressed in the same color as the background).

● Subjects moving at high speed.
- When there is a high-contrast subject other than the main subject at or near the center of the image and that subject is closer to or further from the camera than the main subject (as when you photograph someone against a background with strongly contrasting elements).

STILL IMAGE MODE EXPOSURE (SHUTTER SPEED AND APERTURE)

EXPOSURE

Exposure refers to the light that hits the CCD or the total amount of captured light and determines the brightness of the image.

The exposure is determined by the combination of aperture and shutter speed. In AE (automatic exposure), the camera automatically determines the correct exposure, allowing for factors such as the brightness of the subject and the ISO setting.

The graph at left shows the way the aperture and shutter speed settings can be changed while maintaining the same exposure level.

• When the exposure is decreased by one step, the shutter speed also decreases by one step (the dot moves up and left).
• When the exposure is increased by one step, the shutter speed also increases by one step (the dot moves down and right).
• Combinations that result in the shutter speed or aperture being outside the available range of settings cannot be selected (white dots).
• In the P, S and A photography modes, it is easy to select different settings along this line.
• Selecting settings that run parallel to this line by adjusting the brightness of the photographed image is referred to as exposure compensation.

When You Cannot Get the Correct Exposure

Exposure compensation:

This function uses the exposure level set

by the AE function as a reference (0) and then brightens (+) or darkens (-) the image. By selecting Auto Bracketing, you can shoot 3 frames, one underexposed (-), one at the reference exposure (0) and one overexposed (+).

Shutter Speed

When you are shooting a moving subject, you can either "freeze the motion" or "capture the sense of movement" by adjusting the shutter speed.

Freezes the motion of the subject.

Photographs the traces left by the subject's movement.

Aperture

By adjusting the aperture, you can change the depth of focus (depth of field)

The area in front of and behind the subject is also in focus in the shot.

The background is out of focus.

AUTO

All settings other than the Quality, ISO sensitivity and FinePix color are specified on the camera.

SP

Select the best Scene Position setting (PORTRAIT, SCENE, SPORT or NIGHT) for the scene being shot.

P.S.A

Allows you to change the aperture or shutter speed setting so that the action is frozen, so that the flow of the motion is conveyed, or so that the background is out of focus.

M

Allows you to adjust all the camera settings yourself.

Continuous shooting

Use these functions for close-up shots.

Use the flash for shots in dark locations or for backlit subjects, etc.

Allows you to take a series of continuous shots or to use auto bracketing (with exposure compensation).

Use this mode for shots of moving subjects

Use this mode for shots where the brightness of the subject and background differ markedly and the light is not metered as desired.

C-AF Continuous AF

[◎] Photometry

Exposure compensation

Using the AE exposure as a reference value of 0, this function brightens (+) or darkens (−) the shot.

3 Take the Photograph (check the exposure and focus → adjust the shot composition → press the shutter button down fully).

★ You can Use the Menus for More Detailed Settings (→P.28-30, 51-57).

The table below provides a number of sample settings. You can achieve any number of other effects by using the settings effectively. Try changing different settings to see what kind of shots you can take.

To achieve this result	Sample settings
To express the motion of the subject (the flow of time)	Set the Mode dial to “S” and select a slow shutter speed. (Use a tripod to avoid camera shake.)
To freeze the subject's movement	Set the Mode dial to “S” and select a fast shutter speed.
To make the subject stand out by having the background out of focus	Set the Mode dial to “A” and select a wide aperture setting
To get a very large depth of focus	Set the Mode dial to “A” and select a narrow aperture setting.
To prevent the image having a red or blue cast due to the light source	Change the “White balance” setting in the photography menu
To avoid missing snapshot opportunities	Take pictures in AUTO mode (see “Using the Camera”).
To prevent the subject from being overexposed or underexposed and to show the substance and textures of the subject clearly.	Use exposure compensation.Select (+) if the background is pale and (-) if the background is dark.

MACRO (CLOSE-UP) PHOTOGRAPHY

↓ FLASH

◆ Red-Eye Effect ◆

When you use the flash to photograph people in low-light conditions, their eyes sometimes appear red in the picture. This is caused by the light of the flash reflecting off the inside of the eye. Use Red-Eye Reduction flash to effectively minimize the likelihood of the red-eye effect. Take the following measures to make Red-Eye Reduction more effective:

- Get the subjects to look at the camera. - Get as close as possible to the subjects.

Red-Eye Reduction

Use this mode to ensure that the subject's eyes appear natural when photographing people in low-light conditions. The flash fires a pre-flash just before the picture is taken and then fires again to take the actual picture.

The flash fires automatically as required by the shooting conditions.

If you press the shutter button while the flash is charging, the shot will be taken without the flash.

Forced Flash

Use this mode to photograph backlit scenes, such as a subject against a window or in the shade of a tree, or to obtain the correct colors when you are shooting under lighting such as fluorescent tubes. In this mode, the flash fires in bright as well as dark conditions.

④ Suppressed Flash

Use this mode for photography using indoor lighting, for shots taken through glass, and for photography in venues such as theaters or at indoor sporting events where the distance is too great for the flash to be effective. When you use Suppressed Flash, the Automatic White Balance function ( P.101) operates so that natural colors are captured along with the ambience of the available light.

If you are shooting in Suppressed Flash mode in dark conditions, use a tripod to prevent camera shake.
See P.95 for information on the camera shake warning.

S4 Slow Synchro

This is a flash mode that uses a slow shutter speed. This allows you to take pictures of people at night that clearly show both your subjects and the night time backdrop. To prevent camera shake, always use a tripod.

- Slowest shutter speed

C (SP night scene): Up to 3 sec.

Red-Eye Reduction + Slow Synchro

Use this mode for slow synchro shots with red-eye reduction.

The image may be overexposed when you shoot bright scenes.

To take a picture of a main subject at night with the background brightly lit, please use the "SP" mode "C" (Night Scene) settings (P.38).

Notes on Using the Continuous Shooting Modes

• Shooting continues for as long as you hold down the shutter button. In Auto Bracketing mode however, just press the shutter button once to shoot 3 frames.
• If there is insufficient space on the xD-Picture Card, as many frames are shot as can be recorded on the available space. For auto bracketing however, if there is insufficient space on the media to record 3 frames, no shots are taken.
  ● The focus is determined in the first frame and cannot be changed in mid-sequence.
• The exposure is determined in the first frame, but in Long-period continuous shooting with 1280 × 960-pixel mode the exposure is automatically adjusted for the scene being shot.
  ● The speed of continuous shooting varies depending on the shutter speed.
  ● The speed of continuous shooting does not change with the number of recorded pixels.
  ● The flash cannot be used as the flash mode is set to Suppressed Flash.
• For continuous shooting, final 5-frame continuous shooting and shots taken using auto bracketing, the results are always displayed after you shoot. To choose whether or not to record the images, set "IMAGE DISP." in SET-UP to "ON" (P.70). Note that shots taken using MEGA continuous shooting are recorded regardless of the setting in SET-UP.

Top 5-frame Continuous Shooting

In this mode, you can shoot up to 5 frames at intervals as short as 0.2 seconds. When you take the shots, the photographed images are displayed (in sequence from the left) and automatically recorded.

The maximum file recording time is 4.2 seconds (for 5-frame continuous shooting).

Auto Bracketing

This mode automatically shoots 3 continuous frames that bracket the selected setting so that one image is correctly exposed A, one is overexposed B and one is underexposed C. The settings (exposure range) can be changed in the photography menu.

● Auto Bracketing settings (3) ±1/3 EV, ±2/3 EV, ±1 EV

If the underexposed or overexposed frame is outside the camera's control range, the shot is not taken with the specified setting increments.
Auto Bracketing cannot be used in *AUTO* or "SP" mode.

Changing the setting (exposure range)

Press the "MENU/OK" button to display the menu and change the setting in the "BRACKETING" menu option (P.57).

This mode allows you to release the shutter up to 25 times (at intervals as short as 0.2 seconds) and record the last 5 frames. If you take your finger off the shutter button before 25 shots have been taken, the camera records the final 5 frames shot before you released the shutter button.

If there is insufficient space on the media, the camera records as many of the shots taken just before the shutter button was released as will fit on the xD-Picture Card

Long-period Continuous Shooting with 1280 × 960-pixel mode

This mode allows you to take up to 40 continuous shots (at intervals as short as 0.6 seconds). In Long-period Continuous Shooting with 1280 × 960 -pixel mode, the number of recorded pixels is automatically set to "IM" ( 1280 × 960 pixels).

Long-period Continuous Shooting with 1280 × 960-pixel mode cannot be used in the "SP, P, S, A" or "M" modes.

◆ Focusing on a Moving Subject ◆

If you press the shutter button down halfway to focus on the subject at the starting point Ⓐ, the subject may no longer be in focus when it reaches point Ⓑ where you want to take the shot. In such situations, use AF lock or manual focusing to focus on point Ⓒ beforehand and then lock the focus so that it does not shift (lock pin).

The lock pin feature is also useful for photographing fast-moving subjects that are difficult to focus on.

In the "AULC, SP" and "♦" modes, light metering is fixed at the MULTI setting and cannot be changed.

◆ The Light Metering Modes are Effective for the Following Subjects ◆

• MULTI
In this mode, the camera uses automatic scene recognition to analyze the subject and provide optimum exposure in a wide range of shooting conditions. This mode should be used for everyday photography.
- SPOT
This mode is useful for subjects with strongly contrasting light and dark areas where you want to achieve the correct exposure for a particular feature.
• AVERAGE
The advantage of this mode is that the exposure tends not to change for different compositions or subjects. This mode is particularly effective for shots of people wearing black or white clothing and shots of scenery.

RENEW: Pictures are stored on each xD-Picture Card beginning with a file number "0001".

If the xD-Picture Card already contains image files with file numbers higher than the highest file number on the last xD-Picture Card, images are stored beginning from the highest file number on the current xD-Picture Card.

You can check the file number by viewing the image. The last 4 digits of the 7-digit number in the top right corner of the screen are the file numbers, while the first 3 digits show the directory number.

When you change the xD-Picture Card, always switch the camera off before you open the battery cover. If you open the battery cover without switching the camera off, the Frame number Memory will not function

File NO. run from 0001 to 9999. Once 9999 is exceeded, the directory number changes from 100 to 101. The maximum number is 999–9999.

The displayed frame number may differ for images photographed on other cameras.

If the "FILE NO. FULL" message appears, see P.95.

CCD-RAW

Setting CCD-RAW to ON disables the signal processing functions (reconstituting the data received from the CCD as an image) performed on the camera. Consequently, this task must be performed on the computer.

Instain it in a digital camera or keep it in the soft case.

- When storing the NP-40.

place it inside the special

soft case provided.

■ Battery Features

● The NP-40 gradually loses its charge even when not used. Use a NP-40 that has been charged recently (in the last day or two) to take pictures.

● To maximize the life of the NP-40, switch the camera off as quickly as possible when it is not being used.

- The number of available shots will be lower in cold locations or at low temperatures. Take along a spare fully charged NP-40.

You can also increase the amount of power produced by putting the NP-40 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 NP-40 directly against the pad. The camera may not operate if you use a depleted NP-40 in cold conditions.

■ Charging the Battery

● You can charge the battery using the camera and the AC power adapter (supplied).

The NP-40 can be charged at ambient temperatures between 0°C and +40°C (+32°F and +104°F). At an ambient temperature of +23°C (+73°F), it takes

■ When the Camera is Unused for Long Periods

If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period of time, remove the battery and the xD-Picture card before storing the camera.

■ Cleaning Your Camera

- Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens and LCD monitor screen as these surfaces, and then wipe lightly with a soft, dry cloth. If any soiling remains, apply a small amount of lens cleaning liquid to a piece of FUJIFILM lens cleaning paper and wipe gently.

- Do not scratch hard objects against the lens and LCD monitor screen as these surfaces are easily damaged.

- Clean the body of the camera with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use volatile substances such as thinners, benzine or insecticide, as these may react with camera body and cause deformation or remove the coating.

■ Using the Camera Overseas

When travelling overseas, do not place your camera in the check-in baggage. Baggage handling at airports may subject baggage to violent shocks, and the camera may be damaged internally even when no external damage is visible.

approximately 2 hours to charge a fully depleted NP-40 battery.

- You should charge the NP-40 at an ambient temperature between +10°C and +35°C (+50°F and +95°F). If you charge the NP-40 at a temperature outside this range, charging takes longer because the performance of the NP-40 is impaired.

- You cannot charge the NP-40 at temperatures of 0°C (+32°F) or below.

- You can also use the optional Battery Charger BC-65 to charge the NP-40. When charging, use the NP-40 battery adapter supplied with the BC-65 (Refer to the Owner's Manual for details).

The NP-40 can be charged using the BC-65 Battery Charger at ambient temperatures between 0^ C and +40^ C ( +32^ F and +104^ F). At an ambient temperature of +23^ C ( +73^ F), it takes approximately 90 minutes to charge a fully depleted NP-40 battery. You should charge the NP-40 at an ambient temperature between +10^ C and +35^ C ( +50^ F and +95^ F). If you charge the NP-40 at a temperature outside this range, charging takes longer because the performance of the NP-40 is impaired.

● The NP-40 does not need to be fully discharged or exhausted flat before being charged.

● The NP-40 may feel warm after it has been charged or immediately after being used. This is perfectly normal

- Do not recharge a fully charged NP-40.

Battery Life

At normal temperatures, the NP-40 can be used at least 300 times.

If the time for which the NP-40 provides power shortens markedly, this indicates that the NP-40 has reached the end of its effective life and should be replaced.

Notes on the xD-Picture Card™

■ Image Memory Card

- This Image Memory Card is a new image recording media (xD-Picture Card) developed for digital cameras. The Image Memory Card consists of a semiconductor memory (NAND-type flash memory) to record digital image data

The recording process is electrically performed and enables erasure of existing image data as well as re-recording of new image data.

- When using a new Memory Card, or a Memory Card that has been initialized by a PC, be sure to initialize (format/initialize) the card with your digital camera before using it.

■ Protecting Your Data

- Data may be lost or destroyed in the following situations. Please note that FUJIFILM assumes no responsibility for data that is lost or destroyed.

1. Removal of the memory card or turning the power off while the memory card is being accessed (i.e., during record, erase, initialization, and playback operations).

2. Improper handling and use of the memory card by the user or third party.

- We recommend saving your important data to another media (i.e., MO disk, CD-R, hard disk, etc.).

■ Notes on Handling xD-Picture Card

- Keep xD-Picture Cards out of the reach of small children. When storing xD-Picture Cards, ensure that they are kept in a location out of the reach of small children to prevent a card being accidentally swallowed. An xD-Picture Card could cause suffocation if accidentally swallowed. If a child swallows an xD-Picture Card, seek medical advice immediately.

● Make sure that the memory card is straight when you insert into the camera etc.

● The memory card is a precision electronic instrument. Do not apply pressure or shock, and avoid bending.

- Do not use the memory card in a hot, humid, or corrosive environment.

- If the contact area on the card is soiled (dust, fingerprints, etc.), wine it clean with a soft dry cloth.

- Clean the memory card with a soft dry piece of cloth when dirty.

● Always keep the card in the anti-static case provided when you carry or store it. Use a storage case if available.

- The memory card can be used reliably for a long period of time, but will eventually lose its ability to store and play back image data. At this point, replace with a new memory card.

- Never remove the xD-Picture Card or switch the camera off during data recording, during data erasing (xD-Picture Card formatting) or during frame advance when images are being played back. These actions could result in damage to the xD-Picture Card.

● The use of xD-Picture Cards is recommended with the FinePix F700

The camera quality cannot be guaranteed when cards other than those manufactured by FUJIFILM are used

- The xD-Picture Card may feel warm when it is removed from the camera after extended periods of picture taking or image viewing. This is normal and does not indicate a fault.

- Do not affix labels to the xD-Picture Card. This could result in the label peeling off and causing a fault when the card is inserted or removed.

■ Notes on Using xD-Picture Card with a PC

- If you intend to take photos using an xD-Picture Card that has been used on a PC, format the xD-Picture Card on your camera.

- When you format an xD-Picture Card in the camera and then shoot and record images, a directory (folder) is automatically created. Image data is then recorded in this directory.

- Do not change or delete the directory (folder) names or file names on the xD-Picture Card from your PC as this will make it impossible to use the xD-Picture Card in your camera.

● Always use the camera to erase image data on an xD-Picture Card.

- To edit image data, copy the image data to the PC's hard disk and then edit the copied data.

- Do not copy files other than those that will be used by the camera.

* These specifications are subject to change without notice. FUJIFILM shall not be held liable for damages resulting from errors in this Owner's Manual.

* The LCD monitor on your digital camera is manufactured using advanced high-precision technology. Even so, small bright points and anomalous colors (particularly around text) may appear on the monitor. These are normal display characteristics and do not indicate a fault with the monitor. This phenomenon will not appear on the recorded image.

* The operation error may be caused in a digital camera by the strong radio interference (i. e. electric fields, static electricity, line noise, etc.).

* Due to the nature of the lens, the edges of photographed images may appear distorted. This is normal and does not indicate a fault.

Explanation of Terms

AF/AE Lock:

On the FinePix F700, pressing the shutter button down half way locks the focus and exposure settings (AF and AE lock). If you want to focus on a subject that is not centered in the frame or change the picture composition after the exposure is set, you can obtain good results by changing the composition after the AF and AE settings are locked.

Auto Power Save Function:

If the camera is not used in any way for 30 seconds, this function switches features such as the LCD monitor off (Sleep mode) to prevent battery depletion and the waste of power when the AC power adapter is connected. If the camera is then left unused for a further period, the Auto Power Save function switches the camera off. This period can be set to 2 minutes or 5 minutes on this camera.

- The Auto Power Off function does not operate in PC mode, during automatic playback, or if it is disabled during setup.

DPOF:

Digital Print Order Format

DPOF is a format used for recording information on a storage media (image memory card, etc.) that allows you to specify which of the frames shot using a digital camera are to be printed and how many prints are made of each image.

EV:

A number that denotes Exposure Value. The EV is determined by the brightness of the subject and sensitivity (speed) of the film or CCD. The number is larger for bright subjects and smaller for dark subjects. As the brightness of the subject changes, a digital camera maintains the amount of light hitting the CCD at a constant level by adjusting the aperture and shutter speed.

When the amount of light striking the CCD doubles, the EV increases by 1. Likewise, when the light is halved, the EV decreases by 1.

Frame rate (fps):

The frame rate refers to the number of images (frames) that are photographed or played back per second. For example, when 10 frames are continuously photographed in a 1-second interval, the frame rate is expressed as 10 fps. For reference, TV images are displayed at 30 fps.

JPEG:

Joint Photographics Experts Group

A file format used for compressing and saving color images. The higher the compression rate, the greater the loss of quality in the decompressed (restored) image.

Motion JPEG:

A type of AVI (Audio Video Interleave) file format that handles images and sound as a single file. Images in the file are recorded in JPEG format. Motion JPEG can be played back by QuickTime 3.0 or later.

PC Card:

A generic term for cards that meet the PC Card Standard.

PC Card Standard:

A standard for PC cards determined by the PCMCIA.

PCMCIA:

Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (US).

Smear:

A phenomenon specific to CCDs whereby white streaks appear on the image when there is a very strong light source, such as the sun or reflected sunlight, in the photography screen.

VGA/QVGA:

Graphics standards for PCs. Images are displayed at 640 × 480 and 320 × 240 pixels respectively.

WAVE:

A standard format used on Windows systems for saving audio data. WAVE files have the ".WAV" file extension and the data can be saved in either compressed or uncompressed format. Uncompressed recording is used on this camera.

WAVE files can be played back on a personal computer using the following software:

Windows : MediaPlayer

Macintosh: QuickTime Player

* QuickTime 3.0 or later

White Balance:

Whatever the kind of the light, the human eye adapts to it so that a white object still looks white. On the other hand, devices such as digital cameras see a white subject as white by first adjusting the color balance to suit the color of the ambient light around the subject. This adjustment is called matching the white balance. A function that automatically matches the white balance is called an Automatic White Balance function.

Exif Print

Exit Print Format is a newly revised digital camera file format that contains a variety of shooting information for optimal printing.
