Flash mode indicator Menu tab Flash mode Auto flash Description If the subject or background is dark, the camera flash will operate automatically. If a subject or background is dark, the camera flash will work automatically and will reduce the red-eye effect by using the red-eye reduction function. The flash fires regardless of available light. The intensity of the flash will be controlled, according to the prevailing conditions. The brighter the background or subject is, the less intense the flash will be. The flash will operate in conjunction with a slow shutter speed in order to obtain the correct exposure. When you take an image in a condition with poor light, the camera shake warning indicator ( ) will display on the LCD monitor. We recommend using a tripod for this function.

4. The photo frame will appear. Press the shutter button to capture an image Before taking a picture, you can change the frame by pressing the E button. Change the frame type by pressing the Up/Down/Left/Right button.
ISO : You can select the ISO sensitivity when taking pictures. The speed or specific light-sensitivity of a camera is rated by ISO numbers. Selecting an ISO Sensitivity 1. Press the +/- button, and then use the UP and DOWN buttons to select the ISO icon( ). The ISO menu bar will appear as shown. 2. Use the LEFT and RIGHT buttons to select the desired ISO sensitivity value. - AUTO : The camera's sensitivity is automatically changed by variables such as lighting value or subject brightness. -100, 200, 400 : You can increase the shutter speed while the same amount of light is present, by increasing the ISO sensitivity. However, the image may be saturated in high luminance. The higher the ISO value, the higher the cameras sensitivity to light is and therefore the greater its capacity to take pictures in dark conditions. However, the noise level in the image will increase as the ISO value increases, making the image appear coarse. 3. When you press the +/- button again, the value you set will be saved and ISO setup mode will end. White balance : The white balance control allows you to adjust the colours to appear more natural. Selecting a White Balance 1. Press the +/- button, and then use the UP and DOWN buttons to select the white balance icon ( ). The white balance menu bar will appear as shown. 2. Use the LEFT and RIGHT buttons to set the white balance to the desired value. The value you set will be displayed on the LCD monitor. AUTO : The camera automatically selects the appropriate white balance settings, depending on the prevailing lighting conditions. DAYLIGHT : For taking images outside. CLOUDY : For taking images under a cloudy and overcast sky. Fluorescent H : For shooting under daylight type fluorescent lighting. Fluorescent L : Shooting under white fluorescent lighting. TUNGSTEN : For shooting under tungsten (standard light bulb) lighting. CUSTOM : Allows the user to set the white balance according to the shooting condition. Different lighting conditions may cause a colour cast on your images. 3. Press the +/- button again. The value you set will be saved and White Balance setup mode will end.

INFORMATION INFORMATION

When [NIGHT], [LANDSCAPE], [SUNSET], [DAWN] and [FIREWORKS] scene modes are selected, it is possible that camera shake will occur. In this case, you should use a tripod. Taking high resolution images will use much more memory than low resolution images, making fewer shots available.

Quality/ Frame rate

You can select the compression ratio appropriate for your application of the captured images. The higher the compression ratio, the lower the picture quality. Mode Icon Sub menu File Format S.FINE jpeg FINE jpeg NORMAL jpeg 24FPS avi 15FPS avi STILL IMAGE mode MOVIE CLIP mode

Metering

If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change the metering method to take brighter pictures. [MULTI] ( ) : Exposure will be calculated based on an average of the METERING MULTI available light in the image area. SPOT However, the calculation will be biased towards the centre of the image area. This is suitable for [PROGRAM mode] general use. ) : Only the rectangular area in the centre of the LCD monitor will be metered for light. Use this setting when you want the subject in the centre to be correctly exposed, regardless of the back lighting.

[SPOT] (

FRAME RATE

24 FPS 15 FPS

If the subject is not the centre of the focus area, do not use the spot metering as this may result in an exposure error. In this circumstance, It is better to use exposure compensation.
This file format complies with the DCF(Design rule for Camera File system). JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) : JPEG is the image compression standard developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. This type of compression is most commonly used for compressing photos and graphics because it can compress the files efficiently without damaging the data.

Continuous Shooting

Select the number of pictures in continuous shooting. - [SINGLE] : Take one picture only - [CONTINUOUS] : Images will be taken SHOOTING SINGLE continuously until the shutter CONTINUOUS button is released. The shooting AEB capacity depends on the memory. - [AEB] : Take three pictures in a series in [PROGRAM mode] different exposures: standard exposure (0.0EV), short exposure (-0.5EV),and over exposure (+0.5EV). Use the mode if it is hard to decide exposure of the object. High resolution and picture quality increases file saving time, which increases stand-by time. If the [CONTINUOUS] sub menu is selected, the flash will be off automatically. If less than 3 pictures are available in the memory, the AEB setting will not work. It is best to use a tripod for the AEB shooting as the time to save each image file is longer and the blurring caused by camera shake may occur.
