Precautions

General Precautions
Be sure to observe the following important precautions whenever using the QV-300. All references in this manual to this camera and the camera refer to the CASIO QV-300 Digital Camera. Never try to take pictures or use the built-in display while operating a motor vehicle or while walking. Doing so creates the danger of serious accident. Never try to open the case of the camera or attempt your own repairs. High-voltage internal components create the risk of electrical shock when exposed. Always leave maintenance and repair work up to authorized CASIO service providers. Keep the camera away from water and other liquids, and never let it get wet. Moisture creates the danger of fire and electrical shock. Never use the camera outdoors in the rain or snow, at the seashore or beach, in the bathroom, etc. Should foreign matter or water ever get into the unit, immediately turn power off, unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet, and contact your dealer or nearest CASIO service provider. Using the unit under these conditions creates the danger of fire and electrical shock. Should you ever notice smoke or a strange odor coming out of the unit, immediately turn power off and unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet. Using the unit under these conditions creates the danger of fire and electrical shock. After making sure there is no more smoke coming from the unit, take it to your nearest CASIO service provider for repair. Never attempt your own maintenance. If the units case should ever become cracked due to dropping it or otherwise subjecting it to rough treatment, immediately turn power off, unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet, and contact your nearest CASIO service provider.
Liquid Crystal Digital Camera Never use the unit inside of an air craft or in any other areas where its use is prohibited. Doing so can result in an accident.

Keep the camera in its soft case to protect it when not in use.
Important! Make sure that the terminal panel cover is slid fully away as shown in step 2 above before trying to raise it. Forcing the cover up can seriously damage it. 11 12

Power Supply

The camera features a two-way power supply that lets you use either batteries (AA-size Alkaline or Lithium) or household AC current.
Battery Handling Precautions
Incorrect use or handling of batteries can cause them to leak or burst and seriously damage your camera. Be sure to note the following important precautions to avoid problems with batteries.

To load batteries

Be sure that camera power is turned off whenever loading or replacing batteries. 2 1. Slide the battery compartment lock on the bottom of the camera in the direction indicated by arrow , and swing open the battery compartment cover as indicated by arrow 2.

Caution

Insert four batteries and close the battery compartment cover. A
Use only LR6 (AM-3) type alkaline or FR6 type lithium dry cell batteries with this camera. Never mix old batteries with new ones. Failure to do so can result in bursting or leaking of batteries, creating the danger of fire or personal injury. Always make sure that the positive [+] and negative [] ends of the batteries are facing correctly, as noted by the markings on the camera itself. Improper loading of batteries can result in bursting or leaking of batteries, creating the danger of personal injury or soiling of objects nearby.
Remove batteries from the camera if you do not plan to use it for more than two weeks. Never recharge batteries, never allow direct connection between two ends of a battery, and never try to take batteries apart. Be sure to use Alkaline or Lithium batteries. Never use manganese batteries (see precautions on the next page). Make sure that the positive + and negative - ends of the batteries are facing correctly. Press down on the battery compartment cover at the point marked A in the above illustration until the cover locks into place with a click. Do not expose batteries to direct heat or dispose of them by burning. Doing so can create the danger of explosion. Never mix batteries of different types.
Power Supply Dead batteries are susceptible to leakage, which can cause serious damage to your camera. Remove batteries from the camera as soon as you notice they are dead. The batteries that power this camera normally become warm when they lose power. This does not indicate malfunction.

Flash Memory

The camera features flash memory for storage of images. Flash memory does not require electrical power to store data, so image data is retained in memory even when you turn camera power off. If batteries go dead, simply load a set of new batteries or connect the AC adaptor and you will be able to view images in camera memory.

Recording Images

Operation
The following procedure provides the basic steps for recording an image.
Use MODE to enter the resolution mode (FINE or NORMAL) you want. Each press of MODE toggles between the Normal Mode and Fine Mode. Note that the number of images that can be stored in memory is different depending on whether images are saved in the Normal Mode or Fine Mode. See Resolution Modes on page 25 for details.

To record an image

Enter the Record Mode. Slide the function switch to the REC position.
Turn on the camera. Slide the POWER switch in the direction indicated by the arrow. The POWER switch automatically slides back to its original position when you release it. When power comes on, the image of the object that is in front of the cameras lens appears on the LCD. You can perform steps 1 and 2 in either order (1 then 2, or 2 then 1).

5. Record the image.

Compose the image you want to record while viewing it on the LCD. It is best to look at the LCD directly, and not from an angle. Take care that your finger is not blocking the lens. Should the lens become dirty, use the cloth that comes with the camera to clean it off. When the image is situated on the LCD as you want it, press the shutter button. Press the shutter button lightly to avoid moving the camera. See page 21 for information on how to avoid hand movement. The message WAIT appears on the LCD for about six seconds along with the image that was recorded when you pressed the shutter button. You can use the camera to take the next picture after the WAIT message disappears. Here you could change the function switch to the PLAY position and view the image you just recorded.

NORMAL

Set the NORMAL/MACRO switch to the NORMAL position. If the object whose image you are recording is about 10 centimeters from the lens (about 4 inches), set the TELE/WIDE switch to WIDE and the NORMAL/MACRO switch to MACRO. See page 24 for details on using this switch.

MACRO NORMAL

Note The camera is designed to refresh the image on the LCD about seven times per second. Because of this, you may experience a feeling of jerkiness in the changing image if you move the camera quickly. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction. 19 20
Caution Never open the battery compartment cover, disconnect the AC adaptor from the camera or unplug it from the wall socket while the WAIT message is on the LCD. Doing so will not only make storage of the current image impossible, it can also corrupt other image data already stored in camera memory.

Infrared Light

Infrared light generated by a flash or other source can create image color problems, such as red areas being recorded as green. Such color problems will show up in the LCD while you are composing the image.

Exposure warning indicators appear on the LCD whenever the light being picked up by the lens would result in under exposure or over exposure of an image. Under exposure Over exposure Use the procedure described on page 27 to change the aperture or change the lighting of the image so the indicator disappears from the LCD.
Recording Images Important! The exposure warning indicators also appear when lighting is outside the range of the camera. In such a case, changing the aperture will not clear the indicator from the LCD. The manual exposure adjustment procedure (page 25) cannot be used when an exposure warning indicator is on the LCD. Clear the warning indicator by changing the aperture switch setting. Pressing the [+] or [] button to adjust exposure while an exposure warning indicator is on the LCD causes a +/ exposure value to appear. This is an EV value.
