Using the batteries

We recommend using batteries for a digital camera (Within a year from the date of manufacture). The batteries are listed below. - Non rechargeable batteries : 2 X AA Alkaline (High Capacity) - Rechargeable batteries : SNB-2512 (Ni-MH) SBP-2524 (Ni-MH)

INFORMATION

Important information about battery usage When the camera is not used, turn off the camera power. Please remove the battery if the camera will not be used for long periods. Battery can lose power over time and are prone to leaking if kept inside the camera. Low temperatures (below 0C) can affect the performance of the battery and you may experience reduced battery life. Batteries will usually recover at normal temperatures. During extended use of the camera, the camera body may become warm. This is perfectly normal. There are 4 indicators for battery condition that are displayed on the LCD monitor. Battery indicator Battery status The battery is fully charged Low battery capacity Low battery capacity Low battery capacity (Prepare to recharge (Prepare to recharge (Prepare to recharge or use spare battery) or use spare battery) or use spare battery)
Insert the battery as shown - If the camera does not turn on after you have inserted battery, please check whether the battery is inserted with the correct polarity (+ / -). - When the battery chamber cover is opened, do not press the battery chamber cover by force. This may cause damage to the battery chamber cover.
Inserting the memory card
Insert the memory card as shown. - Turn off the cameras power before inserting the memory card. - Have the front of the memory card facing toward the front of the camera (lens) and the card pins toward the back of the camera (LCD monitor). - Do not insert the memory card the wrong way round. Doing so may damage the memory card slot.
Instructions on how to use the memory card
Be sure to format the memory card (see p.55) if you are using a newly purchased memory for the first time, if it contains data that the camera cannot recognise, 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. To use the memory card in this camera, format the memory card using this camera. Do not use a memory card formatted by another digital camera or memory card reader. 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 : A [Memory Full!] message will appear and the camera will not operate. To optimise the amount of memory in the camera, replace the memory card or delete unnecessary images stored on the memory card.

The higher the resolution, the lower the number of shots available because high resolution images require more memory.
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.

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 METERING average of the available light in the image Multi area. However, the calculation will be Spor biased towards the centre of the image area. This is suitable for general use. [Spot] : Only the rectangular area in the centre of [ PROGRAM mode ] the LCD monitor will be metered for light. This is suitable when the subject in the centre is exposed correctly, regardless of the back lighting. 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.

Continuous shot

You can select continuous shot, and AEB (Auto Exposure Bracketing). - [Single] : Take one picture only SHOOTING - [Continuous] : Images will be taken continuously Single until the shutter button is released. Continuous AEB The shooting capacity depends on the memory. - [AEB] : Take three pictures in a series in [ PROGRAM mode ] different exposures: short exposure (-0.5EV), standard exposure (0.0EV) 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] or [AEB] sub menu is selected, the flash will be off automatically. If less than 3 pictures are available in the memory, the AEB shooting is not available. 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.
