eNever use the following types of battery, as this could cause serious Outer casing problems such as battery fluid leakage or overheating : I 1. Batteries with split or peeling outer casings _, 2. Combinations of different types of batteries or new and used batteries together • Do not use manganese or Ni-Od batteries. • Soil, such as fingermarks on the poles of the batteries can significantly reduce the amount of time for which the batteries can be used. • The time for which AA-size alkaline batteries (referred to hereafter simply as alkaline batteries) can be used varies depending on the brand, and some alkaline batteries may stop providing power more quickly than those supplied with the camera. Note also that due to their nature, the time for which alkaline batteries can be used decreases in cold conditions (0°C to +10°C). The use of AA-size Ni-MH batteries is recommended for this reason.
Mounting the adapter ring on the camera not 0hi""" y °_/ blocks unwanted external light but also protects the lens and al!£w s the optional €0nversi0n ens to b e attached Mount the adapter nng on the camera at all times

_ The information above is an approximate guide for photography mode. Depending on the camera mode and the type of batteries used, the transition from "(:1_" to "C::]" may occur more quickly. _;:[When the batteries runs flat, "C::]" is displayed and camera operation automatically stops. When this occurs, the camera may work if you switch it on again even without loading new or fully charged batteries. However, this may cause camera faults such as the camera switching itself off without retracting the lens. Always load new or fully charged batteries. _t 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 batteries in your pocket or a similar location before use.

eAs a power source in digital cameras, AA-size NiMH batteries are superior to alkaline batteries in several ways, such as allowing more shots to be taken with the camera. However, care must be taken with the way Ni-MH batteries are used if their original performance is to be maintained. • 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. By repeating this cycle several times, the temporary reduction in performance caused by "memory" or "deactivation" can be remedied and the batteries can be restored

Notes on the xD-Picture CardTM • 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 rerecording 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 • Data may situations.
your data be lost or destroyed in the following 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.). •

operation
The number of available shots for battery operation given here is a guide to the number of consecutive shots that can be taken under FUJIFILM test conditions. • Batteries
used : Using the alkaline batteries bundled with the camera Using Ni-MH batteries at full charge • Shooting conditions : Measured at normal temperature with 50% flash use • Note : The number of available shots varies depending on the capacity of the alkaline batteries and the amount of charge in the NbMH batteries. Consequently, FUJIFILM makes no guarantee with regard to the numbers of available shots for battery operation given here. Note that the number of available shots will be lower at low temperatures.

EV: A number that denotes Exposure Value. The EV is determined by the bdghtness of the subject and sensitivity (speed) of the fikn 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 hitthlg 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. to the number

Leaving an Ni=MH battery unused in storage for a long period may cause a rise in the level of substances that inhibit current flow inside the battery and result in a dormant battery. A battery in this state is referred to as deactivated. Because current flow is hlhibited in a deactivated NbMH battery, the battery's odginal level of performance cannot be achieved.

If the camera is not used in any way for 38 seconds, tMs function switches features such as the 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.
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.
