N Red-Eye Effect N

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 also to make Red-Eye Reduction more effective :
Get the subjects to look at the camera.
Get as close as possible to the subjects.

The PC Card Adapter allows the SmartMedia to be used as a PC Card Standard ATA-compliant (PCMCIA 2.1) PC card (Type II). h Compatible with SmartMedia of 5V/3.3V, 2MB to 128MB.
If the camera is carried suddenly from a cold location into a warm place, water droplets (condensation) may form on the inside of the camera or on the lens. When this occurs, switch the camera off and wait an hour before using the camera. Condensation may also form on the SmartMedia
Notes on the Power Supply

Applicable Batteries

h AA-size alkaline, Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride) can be used with this camera. Do not use AA-size manganese, lithium batteries in your FinePix2800 ZOOM because the heat generated by the batteries could damage the camera or cause malfunctions. h The operating lives of alkaline batteries vary between brands and the life of batteries you purchase may be shorter than the alkaline batteries provided with the camera. h Do not use the batteries that are leaking, deformed, discolored or exhibit any other obvious abnormality. h Do not store the batteries in very warm or moist locations. h Keep the batteries out of reach of infant and young children. h When loading the batteries into the camera, ensure that the battery polarity (= and - ) is as indicated on the camera. h Do not use new batteries together with used batteries. In the case of rechargeable batteries, do not use charged and discharged batteries together. Do not use batteries of different types or brands together. h If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period of time, remove the batteries from the camera. (Note that if the camera is left with the batteries removed, the time and date settings are cleared.) h The batteries may feel warm immediately after being used. Before removing the batteries, switch the camera off and wait until the batteries cool down. h When replacing the batteries, always fit 4 new batteries. Here, 'new batteries' refers to either recently purchased unused alkaline batteries, or Ni-MH (nickel metal hydride) batteries that have recently been fully recharged together. h In cold locations (at temperatures of +10C/+50F or below), battery performance deteriorates and the time for which they can be used shortens markedly. This is particularly true of alkaline batteries. In cold conditions, put the batteries in your pocket or a similar place to warm them before loading them into the camera. If you use a body warmer to warm the batteries, ensure that they are not in direct contact with the warmer. h Soil (such as fingerprints) on the battery terminals can markedly reduce the number of available shots. Carefully wipe the battery terminals clean with a soft dry cloth before loading the batteries.

INotes on Using SmartMedia with a PC
h If you intend to take photos using a SmartMedia that has been used on a PC, format the SmartMedia on your camera. h When you format a SmartMedia in the camera and then shoot and record images, a directory (folder) is automatically created. Image data is then recorded in this directory. h Do not change or delete the directory (folder) names or file names on the SmartMedia from your PC as this will make it impossible to use the SmartMedia in your camera. h Always use the camera to erase image data on a

Explanation of Terms

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 printed and how many prints are made of each image. EV: A number that denotes exposure. 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. JPEG: Joint Photographics Experts Group A file format used for compressing and saving color images. The compression ratio can be selected, but the higher the compression ratio, the poorer the quality of the expanded 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). 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 89 function that automatically matches the white balance is called an Automatic White Balance function.
