Resetting to Default Settings
You can easily change all the settings you made back to the camera default settings by the following steps. Please refer to Camera Default Settings on page 85 for more details. 1. Turn on the camera. 2. Set the camera to Still Image mode. 3. Follow the guidelines in Setup Menu on page 15 to access the Setup menu.
Formatting the Internal Memory
Formatting the internal memory deletes all data stored in it. 1. Turn on the camera. 2. Set the camera to Still Image mode. 3. Follow the guidelines in Setup Menu on page 15 to access the Setup menu.
NOTE: Data deleted by a format operation cannot be recovered. Make sure you do not have any useful data currently stored in the internal memory before you format it. Formatting the internal memory destroys all the pictures, even those are protected. With a memory card inserted, the above operation would format the inserted memory card only. The internal memory will not be formatted with a memory card inserted. This setting is also available in Video mode.

Pressing the button again will turn off the information display on the LCD screen, with nine thumbnail picture and video clip files left only. Pressing the button a third time will show the picture or video clip file in full screen with the information display.

3 Taking Pictures

Before you take pictures, please read this note first:
IMPORTANT! Never remove batteries while a picture is being saved. Doing so will prevent the current picture being saved and may corrupt other pictures already stored in the cameras internal memory or on a memory card.

Setting the Image Size and Quality
Picture resolution refers to the number of pixels in a digital picture. Picture quality depends on the JPEG file compression that the camera applies when the picture is taken. Higher resolution and less compression produces better quality but occupies more memory space. Smaller size pictures and normal quality are easier to email while larger size and fine quality are better for printing. Image Size Setting 1. Turn on the camera. 2. Set the camera to Still Image mode.
Quality Setting: 1. Turn on the camera. 2. Set the camera to Still Image mode.
The chart below indicates the approximate numbers of pictures you can expect the camera to hold at each setting based on the 16MB/32MB optional internal memory. You can expand the memory with SD card, please refer to Capacity of SD Card on page 82 for further details.

Internal Memory

Resolution Quality High 24 Normal Low
2592 x 1936 pixels 2048 x 1536 pixels 1600 x 1200 pixels 640 x 480 pixels

54 300

58 416
NOTE: Scene complexity affects a pictures file size. For example, a picture of trees in autumn has a larger file size than a picture of blue sky at the same resolution and quality setting. Therefore, the number of pictures you can store on the cameras internal memory may vary. The number of pictures on the LCD screen is for reference only. It is recommended to use the 2592 x 1936 resolution for printing.
Setting Exposure Compensation
You can adjust the exposure compensation value (EV) within the range of -1.5EV to +1.5EV in order to compensate for current lighting conditions. This setting can be used to obtain better result when shooting with backlighting, indirect indoor lighting, a dark background, etc. 1. Turn on the camera. 2. Set the camera to Still Image mode.
NOTE: A higher EV value is best used for light-colored subjects and backlit subjects. A lower EV value is best for dark-colored subjects and for shooting outdoors on a clear day. When shooting under very dark or very bright conditions, you may not be able to obtain satisfactory results even after performing exposure compensation. Exposure compensation resets to Auto whenever the power is turned off.
Setting the White Balance for Pictures
Selecting the right type of white balance can help to make the color of a subject in a picture appear more natural under the type of lighting that is available. 1. Turn on the camera. 2. Set the camera to Still Image mode.
When shooting under these conditions: Automatic adjustment Outdoor daylight Cloudy Indoors, illuminated by tungsten lighting
Indoors, illuminated by fluorescent lighting

With this camera, you should always select images by viewing them on the LCD screen. Do not specify images by file name without viewing the file contents.

7 Using the SD (Secure Digital) Card

Using the SD card

Your camera comes with a 16MB/32MB optional built-in flash memory for storing pictures and video clips. You can expand the memory using a commercially available SD card (up to 1GB). The camera senses whether a memory card is inserted, and automatically saves pictures and video clips accordingly. Note that you cannot save pictures or video clips to the built-in flash memory while a memory card is installed in the camera. Memory Card Precautions 1. Use only an SD memory card with this camera. 2. Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause data corruption or even loss. Always make sure that you always back up important data on other media (MO disc, computer hard drive, etc.). 3. If a memory card starts to behave abnormally, you can restore normal operation by reformatting it. However, we recommend that you always take along more than one memory card whenever using the camera far away from the home or office. 4. We recommend that you format a memory card before using it for the first time after purchasing it, or whenever the card you are using seems to be the cause of abnormal pictures. Remember to format a memory card if it was used in another digital camera or other devices.

IMPORTANT! Make sure you turn off the camera before inserting or removing a memory card. Be sure to orient the card correctly when inserting it. Never try to force a memory card into the slot when you feel resistance. SD memory cards have a write protection switch that you can use to protect files from accidental deletion. However, you must remove the write protection whenever you want to record new files onto it, format it, or delete its files. Files contained in the SD card recorded by other cameras may conflict with the PDC 5055 camera, and valuable data in your existing SD card may be distorted or lost when the card is inserted in the PDC 5055 camera. We strongly recommend the user to use a NEW or formatted SD card for the PDC 5055 camera. The manufacturer is not liable for losing or corrupting any valuable data or files in your SD card due to your improper operation.
Inserting the SD Card Turn off the camera and open the Battery/SD card door as illustrated. Insert the SD card, ensure the card is inserted the correct position as illustrated, close the Battery/SD card cover before using the camera.
Notched corner of SD card
icon will appear on the LCD screen when a SD card is inserted The into the camera.
Removing the SD Card To remove the SD card, turn off the camera, open the Battery/SD card door. Gently use your finger to push the SD card inwards and then release it for the SD card to bounce out of the SD card slot as illustrated.
IMPORTANT! Never insert any other object into the cameras SD card slot. Doing so creates the risk of damage to the camera and card. Should water or any foreign objects ever get into the card slot, immediately turn off the camera, remove the batteries and contact your dealer or nearest service provider. Never remove a card from the camera while the camera is powered on. Doing so can cause the picture or video recording operation to fail, and even damage the memory card.
Formatting the SD Card Formatting the SD card erases all files stored in it, including the protected ones. Removing the SD card during formatting may damage the card. 1. Insert an SD card into the camera card slot. 2. Turn on the camera. 3. Set the camera to Playback mode. 4. Follow the guidelines in Setup Menu on page 15 to access the Setup menu.
IMPORTANT! You can format a memory card on the camera or on a computer. However formatting a memory card on a computer takes much longer. Note that data deleted by a format operation cannot be recovered. Make sure you do not have any useful data currently stored on a memory card before you format it. Formatting a memory card destroys all the pictures, even those are protected.
