Remaining power level: low. Replace with a new battery.
Turns off after blinking for approx. 12 sec.
Remaining power level: exhausted. Replace with a new battery.
After taking a picture or when turning on the power with batteries that are running low, the camera may emit several short beeps and the number of storable pictures will blink. If this happens, the picture just taken will not turn out properly. Replace the batteries and take the picture again.
If the terminals inside the battery compartment are dirty, it will noticeably shorten the life of the batteries. Do not touch the inside of the battery compartment. If the camera is left for days with the batteries removed, all the internal settings will revert to the default settings. If the camera is in operation for a long time, its internal temperature rises. When the temperature gets too high, the camera will stop working. If this happens, remove the battery and wait until the camera has cooled down before trying to use it again. When the camera is in operation, its external temperature rises. This is not a malfunction.
Selecting batteries Lithium battery pack Since the CR-V3 lithium battery pack has a long service life, it is convenient when traveling. The CR-V3 lithium battery pack cannot be charged. Rechargeable batteries Olympus NiMH batteries are rechargeable and economical. The lowtemperature resistance makes them a good choice for cold areas. AA (R6) alkaline batteries When you need batteries in a hurry, you can use AA (R6) alkaline batteries, which are easy to get anywhere. However, the number of pictures that you can store in the camera may vary considerably with AA batteries, depending on the battery manufacturer, camera shooting conditions, etc. Use this type of battery only when you have no other choices available. Turn off the monitor whenever possible to save power.

This chapter explains the basics of taking good pictures with your camera. You should read it through in order to make the most of the information provided. Before using the camera, also be sure to read "How to use this manual" and "Getting started", chapter 1.
Shooting mode setting Mode dial
Set the mode dial to any of the following positions and open the lens barrier. Shooting mode: , , , , , , P, A/S/M, , The camera turns on and the lens automatically extends. When the camera mode is set to A/S/M, or , the monitor turns on automatically.

Full-auto shooting

Allows you to take still pictures using NO special functions or manual adjustments. The camera sets optimal focusing and exposure. Suitable for simple shooting.

Portrait shooting

Suitable for shooting a portrait-style shot of a person. This mode features an in-focus subject against a blurred background. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions.
Landscape-Portrait shooting
For example, if you want to take a picture with a beautiful background, you will want to have both your subject and the background in focus. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions.

Landscape-Scene shooting

Suitable for taking pictures of landscapes and other outdoor scenes landscape. The camera focuses on a distant subject (tree, mountain, etc.) and the picture comes out clear. Since blues and greens are reproduced vividly in this mode, the Landscape-Scene mode is excellent for shooting natural scenery. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions.

Chapter 4

Night Scene shooting
Suitable for shooting pictures in the evening or at night. The camera sets a slower shutter speed than is used in normal shooting. For example, if you take a picture of a street at night in the mode, the lack of brightness will result in a dark picture with only the sparkle of lights such as street lamps appearing. In the Night Scene shooting mode, the true appearance of the street can be captured. The camera automatically selects the optimal settings for this type of shooting condition.

Self-Portrait shooting

Enables you to take a picture of yourself while holding the camera. Point the lens towards you and take a shot. The focus is locked on you (shooter). The camera automatically selects the optimal settings for this type of shooting condition. Zooming is not possible.

Program shooting

Allows you to take still pictures. The camera sets aperture and shutter speed. Other functions, such as flash modes and drive modes, can be adjusted manually.
Aperture priority/Shutter priority/Manual shooting
Allows you to set aperture and/or shutter speed manually. When the mode dial is set to A/S/M, the following items can be set with the menus:
Allows you to set the aperture manually. The camera sets the shutter speed automatically. By decreasing the aperture value (F value), you will force the camera to focus within a smaller range, producing a picture with a blurred background. Increasing the value forces the camera to focus over a wider range in the forward/backward directions, resulting in a picture in which both the subject and the background are in focus.

Slow Synchronization

The Slow Synchronization flash is designed for slow shutter speeds. Normally, when shooting with a flash, shutter speeds cannot go below a certain level to prevent camera movement. But when shooting a night scene background, fast shutter speeds can make the background too dark. Slow Synchronization flash allows both a slow shutter speed for the background and a flash for the subject.
SLOW1: 1st curtain (front curtain) Usually, regardless of the shutter speed, the flash fires right after the shutter fully opens. This is called 1st curtain. Unless you change it, this is how the flash always fires.
SLOW2: 2nd curtain (rear curtain) In contrast to 1st curtain, 2nd curtain fires the flash just before the shutter closes. Changing the flash timing can create interesting effects in your picture, such as expressing the movement of a car by showing the taillights streaming backwards. The slower the shutter speed, the better the effects turn out. Slowest possible shutter speed depends on the shooting mode: M mode : 16 sec. P/A/S mode : 4 sec. (depending on the ISO setting.) When the shutter speed is set to 4 sec.

Do not select an extremely bright subject (such as the sun) for the first picture. Do not adjust the zoom after the first picture. Pictures with differently sized images cannot be connected. Panorama shooting is possible for up to 10 pictures.

When you set noise reduction to ON, shooting time is approximately twice as long as usual, because the camera needs extra time to finish the noisereduction process. During this time, shooting the next picture is not possible. When NOISE REDUCTION is ON, sequential shooting ( , , BKT) is not possible. This function may not work well with some shooting conditions or subjects. Since the shutter speed is slower when noise reduction is ON, we recommend that you use a tripod.

Print reserve prepares pictures you have taken with the camera for printing at a photo lab or on your printer.

How to print pictures

When you want to print out pictures that you have taken with this camera and stored on a card, use one of the following options: Print Reserve (P. 161-166) for printing at a photo lab that supports DPOF or for printing on a DPOF compatible printer Apply Print Reserve (P. 161-166) to your pictures. This allows you to add printing data (number of prints, data printed on pictures, etc.) to the pictures you have stored. What is DPOF? DPOF is short for Digital Print Order Format. DPOF is a format used to record automatic print information from cameras. By specifying which images are to be printed, the images can be printed easily by DPOFcompatible printing service labs or a personal DPOF-compatible printer. Printing on an Olympus CAMEDIA P-400, P-330N(E) or P-200 digital printer If you insert a card with Print Reserve data into the printer, printing is possible without using a computer. For more details, refer to the printers instructions. Transferring pictures to a computer (P. 175 178) and printing them from a printer connected to the computer If your computer has software applications installed that support JPEG images (Internet browsers, Paint software, etc.), you can print out your pictures on a printer connected to the computer. CAMEDIA Master software also enables printing. Also refer to the application software's instructions.
How to print pictures (Cont.)
Picture size and printing The resolution of a computer/printer is generally based on the number of dots (pixels) per square inch. This is called dpi (dots per inch). The higher the dpi value, the higher the resolution, and the better the printed results. Keep in mind, however, that the dpi of the picture you want to print does not change to match the printer resolution. This means that when you print an image with a lower resolution than the printer, the size of the printed picture will be smaller. Although you can print magnified images, picture quality will decrease. If you want to be able to print large, high-quality pictures, set the picture size in the camera as high as possible (higher record mode) (P. 105).
