BASIC IMAGE RECORDING When the flash is turned off ( ), mount the camera on a tripod to record images in an area where available lighting is dim. Recording images under dim lighting without the flash can cause digital noise, which makes images appear coarse. When red-eye reduction ( ) is selected, flash intensity is adjusted automatically in accordance with the exposure. The flash may not fire at all when the subject is brightly lit. Using flash in combination with another light source (daylight, fluorescent light, etc.) can result in abnormal image colors.

Using the Self-timer

The self-timer lets you select either a 2-second or 10second delay of the shutter release after you press the shutter button. A Triple Self-timer feature lets you perform three consecutive self-timer operations to record three images.
1. In the REC mode, press [MENU]. 2. Use [] and [] to select the REC tab. 3. Use [] and [] to select Self-timer, and
4. Use [] and [] to select the self-timer type

This causes an indicator identifying the selected self-timer type to appear on the monitor screen. With the Triple Self-timer, the camera records a series of three images in the sequence described below.

5. Press the shutter

button to record the image.
When you press the shutter button, the AF assist light/self-timer lamp flashes and the shutter releases after the self-timer reaches the end of its countdown (about 10 seconds or two seconds).
NOTE The 2 sec self-timer setting is best when shooting with a slow shutter speed, because it helps to avoid blurring of images due to hand movement. The following functions are not available for use in combination with the Triple Self-timer. Business Shot, movie recording functions
You can interrupt an ongoing self-timer countdown by pressing the shutter button while the AF assist light/self-timer lamp is flashing.

Specifying Image Size

Image size is the size of the image, expressed as the number of vertical and horizontal pixels. A pixel is one of the many tiny dots that make up the image. More pixels provide finer detail when an image is printed, but a higher pixel count also causes the images file size to be larger. You can select an image size to suit your needs for greater detail or smaller file size. Note that this setting is valid for snapshots only. For information about movie image size, see page 96.

Image Size 5M* 5M (3:2) 4M 3M 2M VGA (3:2) 640 480
Print Size A3 Print A3 Print (3:2 horizontal-tovertical ratio) A4 Print A4 Print 3.Print E-mail (optimum size when attaching image to e-mail) Smaller Larger

* M stands for Mega.

1. In the REC mode, press [MENU]. 2. Use [] and [] to select the Quality tab. 3. Use [] and [] to select Size, and then

press [].

When selecting the image size, the image size value (pixels) will alternate on the display with a corresponding print size. The print size indicates the optimum paper size when you print an image that is the image size you select.
The above print sizes are all approximate values when printing at a resolution of 200 dpi (dots per inch). Use a larger setting when you want to print at a higher resolution or when you plan to produce a larger size print. Selecting the (3:2) image size records images with a 3:2 (horizontal:vertical) aspect ratio, which is optimal for printing on photographic paper with an aspect ratio of 3:2.

Specifying Image Quality

Compressing an image before storage can cause a deterioration of its quality. The more an image is compressed, the greater the loss of quality. The image quality setting specifies the compression ratio to be used when an image is stored in memory. You can select an image quality setting to suit your needs for higher quality or smaller file size. Note that this setting is valid for snapshots only. For information about movie image quality, see page 96.
To get this: High image quality, large file size Normal image quality and normal file size Low image quality, small file size
Select this setting: Fine Normal Economy Lower Quality Higher Quality
IMPORTANT! Actual file size depends on the type of image you record. This means that the remaining image capacity noted on the monitor screen may not be exactly accurate (pages 27, 222).

See page 136 for information about jumping to an index mark during playback.
I Audio Recording Precautions
Take care that you do not block the microphone with your fingers.

Using the Histogram

You can use [] (DISP) to display a histogram on the monitor screen (page 30). The histogram lets you check exposure conditions as you record images. You can also display the histogram of a recorded image in the PLAY mode.

Microphone

Good recording results are not possible when the camera is too far from the subject. Pressing the power button or pressing [ ] (PLAY) stops recording and stores any audio recorded up to that point. You can also perform after-recording to add audio to a snapshot after recording it, and also change the audio recorded for an image. See page 134 for more information.

Histogram

A histogram is a graph that represents the lightness of an image in terms of the number of pixels. The vertical axis indicates the number of pixels, while the horizontal axis indicates lightness. You can use the histogram to determine whether an image includes the shadowing (left side), mid tones (center), and highlighting (right) required to bring out sufficient image detail. If the histogram appears too lopsided for some reason, you can use EV shift (exposure compensation) to move it left or right in order to achieve better balance. Optimum exposure can be achieved by correcting exposure so the graph is as close to the center as possible.
OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS An RGB histogram that shows the distribution of R (red), G (green), and B (blue) components is also displayed. This histogram can be used to determine whether there is too much or too little of each of the color components in an image. NOTE You can use key customization (page 106) to configure the camera to perform exposure compensation whenever you press [] or [] while in the REC mode. If you do this, you can adjust exposure compensation while viewing the on-screen histogram (page 80). When the histogram is too far to the left, it means that there are too many dark pixels. This type of histogram results when the overall image is dark. A histogram that is too far to the left may result in black out of the dark areas of an image.

When the histogram is too far to the right, it means that there are too many light pixels. This type of histogram results when the overall image is light. A histogram that is too far to the right may result in white out of the light areas of an image.
OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS A centered histogram indicates that there is good distribution of light pixels and dark pixels. This type of histogram results when the overall image is at optimal lightness. IMPORTANT! Note that the above histograms are shown for illustrative purposes only. You may not be able to achieve exactly the same shapes for particular subjects. A centered histogram does not necessarily guarantee optimum exposure. The recorded image may be over-exposed or under-exposed, even though its histogram is centered. You may not be able to achieve an optimum histogram configuration due to the limitations of EV shift. Use of the flash as well as certain shooting conditions can cause the histogram to indicate exposure that is different from the actual exposure of the image when it was recorded. The RGB (color component) histogram is displayed for snapshots only.

REC Mode Camera Settings

The following are the settings you can configure before recording an image using the REC mode. L/R key setting (key customization) Grid on/off Image Review on/off Power on default settings ISO sensitivity Metering Filter Sharpness Saturation Contrast Resetting the camera

Turning the On-screen Grid On and Off
You can display gridlines on the monitor screen to help you compose images and ensure that the camera is straight when recording.
Turning Image Review On and Off
Image review displays the images you record on the monitor screen as soon as you record them. Use the following procedure to turn image review on and off.

Specifying ISO Sensitivity
You can change the ISO sensitivity setting for better images in places where lighting is dim or when you are using faster shutter speeds. ISO sensitivity is expressed in terms of values that originally indicated the sensitivity to light for photographic film. A larger value indicates higher sensitivity, which is better for recording when available lighting is dim.
IMPORTANT! Under certain conditions, a high shutter speed in combination with a high ISO sensitivity setting can cause digital noise (graininess), which makes an image appear rough. For clean, good-quality images, use the lowest ISO sensitivity setting possible. Using a high ISO sensitivity setting along with the flash to shoot a nearby subject may result in improper illumination of the subject. Auto ISO sensitivity always is used for movie recording, regardless of the current ISO sensitivity setting. NOTE You can use the key customization feature (page 106) to configure the camera so the ISO sensitivity setting changes whenever you press [] and [] while in the REC mode.
1. In the REC mode, press [MENU]. 2. Select the Quality tab, select ISO, and
3. Use [] and [] to select the setting you want

and then press [SET].

To get this: Automatic sensitivity selection Lower sensitivity Select this setting: Auto ISO 50 ISO 100 ISO 200 Higher sensitivity ISO 400
Selecting the Metering Mode
The metering mode determines what part of the subject is metered for exposure. You can use the following procedure to change the cameras metering mode.
1. In the REC mode, press [MENU]. 2. Select the Quality tab, select Metering,
Multi (Multi pattern) Multi (Multi pattern) metering divides the image into sections and measures the light in each section for a balanced exposure reading. The camera automatically determines shooting conditions according to the measured lighting pattern, and makes exposure settings accordingly. This type of metering provides error-free exposure settings for a wide range of shooting conditions. Center Weighted Center weighted metering measures light concentrating on the center of the focus area. Use this metering method when you want to exert some control over exposure, without leaving settings totally up to the camera. Spot Spot metering takes readings at a very small area. Use this metering method when you want exposure to be set according to the brightness of a particular subject, without it being affected by surrounding conditions.
OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS IMPORTANT! When Multi is selected as the metering mode, certain procedures cause the metering mode setting to change automatically as described below. Changing the exposure compensation setting (page 80) to a value other than 0.0 changes the metering mode setting to Center Weighted. The metering mode changes back to Multi when you return the exposure compensation setting to 0.0.

NOTE If you already have Photo Loader installed on your computer, check its version. If the bundled version is newer than the one you have, uninstall the old version of Photo Loader and then install the newer version. The CD-ROM includes the software and user documentation for various languages. Check the CD-ROM menu screen to see if applications and user documentation are available for a particular language.

I Getting Started

Start up your computer and insert the CD-ROM into its CDROM drive. This will automatically launch the menu application, which displays a menu screen on your computer. The menu application may not start up automatically on some computers. If this happens, navigate to the CDROM and double-click menu.exe to launch the menu application.
I Viewing the Contents of the Read me File
You should always read the Read me file for Photo Loader before installing it. The Read me file contains information you need to know when installing the application.
1. Click the Read me button for Photo
