ADVANCED

DIGITAL SUBJECT PROGRAMS
Digital subject programs optimize the cameras exposure, white-balance, and image-processing systems for specific conditions and subjects. Simply turn the exposure mode dial to select the appropriate subject program.
Portrait - optimized to reproduce warm, soft skin tones and a slight defocusing of the background. Most portraits look best with telephoto lenses; the longer focal length does not exaggerate facial features and the shallower depth of field softens the background. Use the built-in flash with strong direct sunlight or backlight to reduce harsh shadows. Sports action - used to capture fast action by maximizing shutter speeds. When using a flash, make sure the subject is within the flash range (p. 55). Continuous autofocus (p. 58) and continuous-advance drive mode (p. 50) are active. A monopod is more flexible and compact than a tripod when shooting events. Landscape - optimized to produce sharp, colorful landscapes. Used with bright outdoor scenery. Sunset - optimized to reproduce rich, warm sunsets. Take care not to look directly at the sun when it is above the horizon; your eyesight could be damaged permanently. Night portrait - for deep, subtle night scenes. When used with flash, the subject and background exposures are balanced. Use a tripod to eliminate blurring from camera shake. The flash can only be used with close subjects such as with a portrait of a person. When using the flash, ask your subjects not to move after the burst; long shutter speeds can be used for the background exposure. Not all recording functions, such as the color mode and Digital Effects Control can be changed when using Digital Subject Programs. The use of auto white balance (AWB) is recommended when using Digital Subject Programs (p. 64).

AUTO RECORDING

Auto recording is set with the exposure-mode dial. Use this exposure mode when wanting fully-automatic exposure control. Auto recording operates like the program exposure mode, except that when the exposure mode dial is turned to the auto-recording position, recording functions are reset to their default settings. Not all function are available in auto recording such as color mode and Digital Effects Control. Functions are reset to: fill-flash or red-eye reduction flash mode, multi-segment metering, Auto AF focus mode, wide AF area, single-frame advance drive mode, flash and exposure compensation reset, ADI flash control, Auto ISO, large-size images, fine image quality, AF priority, noise reduction.

PROGRAM - P

Program exposure is set with the exposure-mode dial (p. 39). Like auto recording, program controls both the shutter speed and aperture required for each exposure. The operation is the same as described in the basic recording operation section on page 28. However, unlike auto recording, functions set in this mode do not reset when the position of the exposure-mode dial is changed. The default camera sensitivity for program is ISO 100. Program shift allows adjustment to the shutter-speed/aperture combination in 1/3 Ev increments without affecting the total exposure. Using the built-in flash cancels program shift. Press the shutter-release button partway down until the shutter speed and aperture are displayed. Turn the control dial (1) to shift the shutter speed and aperture combination; PS is displayed for the exposure mode. Program shift can be changed between aperture and shutter priority in section 1 of the custom menu (p. 92, 95).

Program shift

APERTURE PRIORITY - A
Aperture priority is set with the exposure-mode dial (p. 39). The photographer selects the aperture and the camera sets the appropriate shutter speed to ensure correct exposure. Turn the control dial (1) to adjust the aperture in 1/3 Ev increments. The aperture range depends on the lens. The aperture is displayed on the monitor and in the viewfinder. Pressing the shutter-release button partway down displays the corresponding shutter speed. With the camera sensitivity (ISO) set to auto, the shutter speed may not change when the aperture is adjusted because the shutter speeds can change in fine steps. Press the shutter-release button all the way down to take the picture. For information on -numbers, see page 55.

SHUTTER PRIORITY - S

Shutter priority is set with the exposure-mode dial (p. 39). The photographer selects the shutter speed and the camera sets the appropriate aperture to ensure correct exposure. Turn the control dial (1) to adjust the shutter speed between 30 and 1/4000 second in 1/3 Ev increments. The shutter speed is displayed on the monitor and in the viewfinder. Pressing the shutter-release button partway down displays the corresponding aperture. Press the shutter-release button all the way down to take the picture.

Flash Sync. Speed

There is a limit to the maximum shutter speed when using the built-in flash. When Anti-Shake is on, the maximum shutter speed that can be used is 1/125s. With Anti-Shake off, the flash sync. speed is 1/160s. While a faster shutter speed cannot be used, there is no limit to the use of slower shutter speeds. Flash range is dependent on the aperture, see page 55. 42 ADVANCED
EXPOSURE CONTROL RANGE WARNINGS
Auto recording, Program, Digital Subject Programs
If the required exposure is beyond the shutter speed and aperture range, the shutter speed and aperture displays blink. In bright conditions, use a neutral density filter on the lens, set a lower camera sensitivity (ISO), or, if using artificial lights, reduce the intensity of the illumination. In dark conditions, use the built-in flash or increase the camera sensitivity (ISO).

Aperture priority

If the required exposure is beyond the shutter speed range, the shutter-speed display blinks. Adjust the aperture until the display is steady.

Shutter priority

If the required exposure is beyond the aperture range, the aperture display blinks. Adjust the shutter speed until the display is steady.

About Shutter Speeds

The shutter speed used for each exposure is displayed on the monitor and in the viewfinder. The following notation is used: The reciprocal is used for shutter speeds from 1/4000 second to 1/3 second. 125 is 1/125 second. For shutter speeds of a half a second or longer, a quote mark is used to denote whole seconds. 15 is one and a half seconds and 15 is fifteen seconds.

MANUAL EXPOSURE - M

Manual exposure mode allows individual selection of shutter speeds and apertures. This mode overrides the exposure system giving the photographer control over the final exposure. Bulb exposures can be made, see below. Manual exposure is set with the exposure-mode dial (p. 39). 1. Turn the control dial to change the shutter speed. 2. Press and hold the exposurecompensation button and turn the control dial to change the aperture. The operation to change the aperture and shutter speed can be reversed in section 1 of the custom menu (p. 95). 3. Press and hold the AEL button and turn the control dial to shift the shutter speed and aperture without affecting the exposure. The Ev scale on the monitor and in the viewfinder indicates the difference between the set exposure and the exposure determined by the camera meter. Press the shutterrelease button partway down to activate the meter. The manual metering (M.M.) indicator is displayed on the monitor Ev scale. The set exposure is 1.0Ev less () than the exposure determined by the meter. The arrow indicates the set exposure is 2.3Ev more (+) or less () than the exposure determined by the meter. The blinking arrow indicates the set exposure is 2.7Ev or greater than the exposure determined by the meter.

44 ADVANCED

By pressing and holding the AEL button (1), continuous meter readings are displayed on the Ev scales. Two indices can be displayed. The fixed index shows the meter reading made when the AEL button is pressed. The other index shows any changes in the metered area. The fixed index is in reference to the selected metering mode (p. 59). The other index uses the spot metering area to determine the reading. Spot metering area When using flash with manual exposure, the shutter speed cannot exceed the flash-sync speed (p. 42). Flash range is dependent on the aperture (p. 55).

BULB EXPOSURES

Bulb photographs can be taken in the manual-exposure mode (M). The use of a tripod, remote cord, and eyepiece cap (p. 111) is recommended. The cameras exposure system cannot be used to calculate bulb exposures. The use of a separate light meter is recommended. Anti-Shake is disabled. 1. Set the appropriate aperture required for the exposure. 2. Decrease the shutter-speed until BULB is displayed. 3. To take the picture, press and hold the shutter-release button for the duration of the exposure. Releasing the shutter button ends the exposure. The monitor is blank during the exposure and remains blank after the exposure for up to 30 seconds while noise-reduction processing is applied to the image.

FLASH COMPENSATION

Flash compensation
The relative output of the flash can be compensated by 2.0 Ev with the function button (p. 56). On the function-selection screen, use the up/down keys of the controller to select exposure compensation and the left/right keys to adjust the degree of compensation. Press the central button of the controller to complete the operation.

0.0 Ev

When the camera flash is raised, the degree of flash compensation is indicated by the Ev scale. When using fill-flash to reduce harsh shadows caused by bright illumination or direct sunlight, flash compensation can change the ratio between the highlights and shadows. Fill flash affect the darkness of the shadows without affecting the area illuminated by the main light source. 1.0 Ev flash compensation

Positive compensation

No compensation

Negative compensation

No flash
By decreasing the flash output with a negative Ev setting, the shadows receive less light and are darker, but subtle details in the shadows that would not appear without the flash are apparent. Increasing the flash output by using a positive Ev setting softens and nearly eliminate shadows.

60 ADVANCED

COLOR MODE

Color / DEC Natural

The color mode controls what the image looks like as well as the color space. The color mode is set with the function button (p. 56). The color mode can only be selected in P, A, S, and M exposure modes. Except for the Abobe RGB and embed Adobe RGB, all color modes use sRGB color space. Some color modes use preset Digital Effects Control values (p. 63); the default positions are indicated by a thick index mark on the scale of the setting screen.
Natural Color - reproduces the colors in the scene faithfully. Natural Plus - increases contrast and acutance. Portrait - optimize for the reproduction of skin tones. Landscape - optimize for daytime outdoor scenery. Sunset - optimize for landscapes at dusk and dawn. The use of auto white balance is recommended. Night view - optimize for nighttime scenery without flash. Night portrait - optimize for nighttime portraits with flash. Black & White - for monochrome images. Adobe RGB - natural color reproduction using the extended gamut Adobe RGB color space. The color space is not embedded in the image data. Embedded Adobe RGB - natural color reproduction using the extended gamut Adobe RGB color space. The color space is embedded in the image data.
(Continued on the next page.)
The active mode is displayed on the monitor. When using portrait, landscape, sunset, night view, or night portrait color mode, the use of auto white balance is recommended.

About Adobe RGB

Adobe RGB has a larger color gamut than the more common sRGB. The size of the gamut limits the colors that can be reproduced; the larger the gamut, the more colors. If the image will be printed out with a high-quality printer, the use of the Embedded Adobe RGB and Adobe RGB color modes are recommended over the other sRGB color modes. Embedded Adobe RGB image files are indicated with a.JPE extension. Adobe RGB images without an embedded profile use a file name beginning with _ICT. See page 120 for more information. Always use DFC 2.0 optional color space compliant software to open Adobe RGB images without embedded profiles. DiMAGE Master Lite 1.0.1 or DiMAGE Master 1.1 or later is DFC 2.0 optional color space compliant. Always use software with color matching or color management functions to open Adobe RGB images with embedded profiles. Software without color management functions, such as Kodak EasyShare, will not reproduce Adobe RGB images correctly. DiMAGE Master Lite supplied with the camera is required to open RAW Adobe RGB images taken with this camera. The full version of DiMAGE Master can also be used.

Konica Minolta History

On February 20th, 1962, John Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth. On board his Friendship 7 spacecraft was a Minolta Hi-matic camera to record that historic event. The 4 hour, 55 minute, and 23 second flight orbited the Earth three times at an average speed of 28,000 kph (17,500 mph). Mr. Glenn visited our Sakai camera factory in Japan on May 24th, 1963 to plant a palm tree to celebrate the occasion. The palm tree is still in the courtyard of the factory and stands over eight meters tall (26ft). The camera? It was not lost. It is on display at the Smithsonian Institutions National Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C. This and other objects from John Glenns Friendship 7 Mercury flight can be found in galley 210, Apollo to the Moon.

CARE AND STORAGE

Read this section in its entirety to get the best results from your camera. With proper care, your camera will provide years of service.

CAMERA CARE

Do not subject the camera to shock or impact. Turn off the camera when transporting. This camera is neither waterproof nor splashproof. Inserting or removing batteries or the memory card, or operating the camera with wet hands may damage the camera. When at the beach or near water, take care not to expose the camera to water or sand. Water, sand, dust, or salt can damage the camera. Do not leave the camera under direct sunlight. Do not point the lens directly at the sun; the CCD may be damaged. Keep the camera away from electromagnetic fields from devices such as magnets or motors.

CLEANING

If the camera or the outside of the lens is dirty, gently wipe it with a soft, clean, dry cloth. If the camera or lens comes in contact with sand, gently blow away loose particles. Wiping may scratch the surface. To clean the lens surface, first blow away any dust or sand, then gently wipe the lens with a cloth or tissue designed for optics. Use lens-cleaning fluid if necessary. Never use organic solvents to clean the camera. Never touch the lens surface with your fingers.

STORAGE

Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from dust and chemicals. For long periods of disuse, store the camera in an airtight container with a silica-gel drying agent. Remove the batteries and memory card from the camera when not in use for extended periods. Do not store the camera in an area with naphthalene or mothballs. During long periods of storage, operate the camera occasionally. When taking the camera out of storage, check that the camera is functioning properly before using.

OPERATING TEMPERATURES AND CONDITIONS
This camera has been designed for use in temperatures from 0C to 40C (32F to 104F). Never leave the camera exposed to extreme high temperatures, such as in a car parked in the sun, or to extreme humidity. When taking the camera from a cold to a warm environment, place it in a sealed plastic bag to prevent condensation from forming. Allow the camera to come to room temperature before removing it from the bag.
MEMORY CARD CARE AND HANDLING
Memory Cards are manufactured with precision electronic components. Konica Minolta has no responsibility for any loss or damage to data. It is recommended that a copy of the card data be made. The following may cause data loss or damage: Improper use of the card. Bending, dropping, or subjecting the card to impact. Heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. Static electrical discharge or electromagnetic fields near the card. Removing the card or interrupting the power supply while the camera or a computer is accessing the card (reading, writing, formatting, etc.). Touching the electrical contacts of the card with your fingers or metal objects. Using the card beyond its life. Purchasing a new card periodically may be necessary. When using a Microdrive, do not subject the camera to vibrations.

BATTERIES

Battery performance decreases with temperature. In cold environments, we recommend keeping spare batteries in a warm place, such as the inside of a coat. Batteries can recover their power when they warm up. Do not store the battery when it is fully charged. When storing the battery for extended periods, recharge it for five minutes every six months. The battery may not be able to be charged if completely exhausted. A special built-in battery supplies power to the clock and memory when the camera is exhausted or removed. If the camera resets each time the battery is removed, the battery is exhausted. It must be replaced at a Konica Minolta service facility.

140 CARE AND

After initially inserting the battery, do not remove it for twelve hours; the camera can be off during this period. The main battery is used to charge an internal battery, which protects settings when the main battery is removed. Keep battery and camera charger contacts clean. Dirty contacts can prevent charging. If the contacts become dirty, wipe them with a cotton swab.

LCD MONITOR CARE

The LCD monitor is manufactured using high-precision technology and more than 99.99% of the pixels operate properly. Less than 0.01% of the monitor pixels are displayed as color or bright points; this is not monitor defect and does not affect the recorded image. Do not apply pressure to the surface of the LCD monitor; it may be permanently damaged. In a cold environment, the LCD monitor may become temporarily dark. When the camera warms up, the display will function normally. If fingerprints are on the LCD monitor surface, gently wipe with a soft, clean, dry cloth.
