The available recording time may vary depending on shooting conditions and camera settings. When the Flash Off or Slow synchro mode is selected in a low lighting condition, the camera shake warning indicator ( ) may appear on the LCD monitor. In this case, use a tripod, support the camera on a solid surface or change the flash mode to flash shot mode. Backlight compensated shots : When taking an outdoor shot, avoid facing the sun, as the image may be dark because of the strong backlight. In backlight conditions, please use Fill-in flash(p.31), Spot metering(p.42) or Exposure compensation(p.36). Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image. As there can be some differences between what is seen through the Viewfinder and the resulting image when taken at a range closer than 1.5m, it is recommended that you use the LCD monitor to compose these shots. Using the LCD monitor extensively will drain the batteries. We recommend turning off the LCD monitor and using the optical viewfinder as often as possible in order to extend battery life. Under certain conditions the auto focus system may not perform as expected. - When photographing a subject that has little contrast. - If the subject is highly reflective or shiny. - If the subject is moving at high speed. - When there is strong reflected light, or when the background is very bright. - When the subject matter has only horizontal lines or the subject is very narrow (such as a stick or flagpole). - When the surroundings are dark.

Connecting to a Power Source
There are two ways in which to provide the camera with power. You can use batteries or alternatively, you can use an AC(100 ~ 250V) Adapter (DC 3.3V 2.0A). We recommend using batteries for a digital camera (Within a year from the date of manufacture). The batteries are listed below. Non rechargeable batteries : AA type - Alkaline, Ni-Mn, Ni-Zn, Lithium CR-V3 type - Lithium Rechargeable batteries : AA type - Ni-MH(Samsung SNB-2312 recommended) Ni-Cd(over 1000mAh) CR-V3 type - Samsung SBP-1303(Lithium Ion battery)

INFORMATION

Important information about battery usage It is easy to buy alkaline batteries. However, the duration for using batteries varies in accordance with the battery manufacturer or the photographic conditions. When the camera is not used, turn off the camera power. Do not recharge the non rechargeable batteries. It may cause an explosion. Please remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for long periods. Batteries can lose power over time and are prone to leaking if kept inside the camera. We recommend high capacity ALKALINE batteries as manganese batteries cannot deliver sufficient power. Low temperatures (below 0 ) can affect the performance of the batteries and you may experience reduced battery life. Batteries will usually recover at normal temperatures. Do not use old and new batteries at the same time. During extended use of the camera, the camera body may become warm. This is perfectly normal.

Using the AC power adapter (3.3V 2.0A) If you have access to a mains supply, using an AC Adapter (3.3V 2.0A) allows the camera to be used for long periods of time. Plug the adapter into the connection point (DC IN 3.3V) on the camera. Remove the batteries from the camera when using an AC adapter.
Always turn off the power before taking the AC adapter out of the mains supply. As with all mains powered devices, safety is important. Ensure that neither the camera nor adapter comes into contact with water or metallic materials. Please ensure that you use an AC adapter (3.3V 2.0A) with the correct specification for the camera. Failure to do so may affect your warranty.

Using the batteries

: If the camera does not turn on after you have inserted batteries, please check whether the batteries are inserted with the correct polarity(+/-). 1. Open the battery chamber cover by pushing in the direction of the arrow.
2. Insert the batteries taking note of the polarity (+ / -).
[Inserting the AA type battery]
[ Inserting the CR-V3 type battery ]
3. To close the battery chamber cover, push it until it clicks.
There are 3 indicators for battery condition that are displayed on the LCD monitor. Battery indicator Battery status The batteries are fully There is no battery capacity. Prepare new batteries. charged. Replace with new batteries.
Instructions on how to use the memory card
Maintenance of the memory card Be sure to format the memory card (see p. 79) if you are using a newly purchased memory for the first time, if it contains data that the camera cannot recognize, or if it contains images captured with a different camera. Turn off the camera power whenever the memory card is being inserted or removed. Repeated use of the memory card will eventually reduce the memory cards performance. Should this be the case, you will need to purchase a new memory card. Wear and tear on the memory card is not covered by the Samsung warranty. The memory card is an electronic precision device. Do not bend, drop or subject the memory card to any heavy impact. Do not store the memory card in an environment with strong electronic or magnetic fields, e.g. near loud speakers or TV receivers. Please do not use or store in an environment where there are extremes in temperature. Do not allow the memory card to become dirty or to come into contact with any liquid. Should this happen, clean the memory card with a soft cloth. Please keep the memory card in its case when not in use. During and after periods of extended use, you may notice that the memory card is warm. This is perfectly normal. Do not use a memory card that is used in another digital camera or memory card reader. Do not use a memory card formatted by another digital camera or memory card reader.

Preserving the memory card data If the memory card is subjected to any of the following, the recorded data may become corrupted : - When the memory card is used incorrectly. - If the power is switched off or the memory card is removed while recording, deleting (formatting) or reading. Samsung cannot be held responsible for lost data. It is advisable to copy important data onto other media as back-up e.g. floppy disks, hard disks, CD etc. If there is insufficient memory available : If you press the shutter button for the shot, a [CARD FULL !] message will appear and the camera will not operate. To optimize the amount of memory in the camera, replace the memory card or delete unnecessary images stored on the memory.
If you open the battery chamber cover when the camera power is turned on, the power will turn off automatically. Dont remove the memory card when the Auto focus lamp(Green) is blinking as this may cause damage to data in the memory card.
The camera can use SD Memory Cards and MMC (Multi Media Card).
Card pins Write protect switch Label
[ SD(Secure Digital) memory card ]
The SD memory card has a write protect switch that prevents image files from being deleted or formatted. By sliding the switch to the bottom of the SD memory card, the data will be protected. By sliding the switch to the top of the SD memory card, the data protection will be canceled. Slide the switch to the top of the SD memory card before taking a picture.
When using a 32MB internal memory, the specified shooting capacity will be as follows. These figures are approximate as image capacities can be affected by variables such as subject matter. Mode Quality/Size SUPER FINE FINE NORMAL 30FPS 15FPS STILL IMAGE mode MOVIE CLIP mode 640 44SEC 1MIN 13SEC 320 1MIN 37SEC 3MIN 160 5MIN 8MIN 50SEC
Inserting the memory card
1. Turn off the cameras power and pull the battery chamber cover in the direction of the arrow to open.
2. Have the front of the memory card facing toward the back of the camera (LCD monitor) and the card pins toward the front of the camera (lens), and then push the memory card into the card slot until you hear a click.
3. To close, push the battery chamber cover until you hear a click. If the memory card does not slide in smoothly, do not attempt to insert it by force. Check the direction of insertion, and then insert it correctly. Do not insert the memory card the wrong way round. Doing so may damage the memory card slot.
