Good camera in Natural Light I bought this camera in 2007. I took it to Georgia on Vacation and I got the hang of it quite quickly. Excellent camera! This is one of my favorite cameras to use. Awful Battery Life! I purchased this camera two years ago. I was happy with this product for the first month only.

The Netherlands, 21 February, 2006: Canon today announces the release of the 12x optical zoom PowerShot S3 IS. Was slightly better. But the Canon has a lot of ways to manage color with an extensive variety of advanced shooting functions.

For nearly 3 years, I am very satisfied with the camera. She is the all round camera. Video and photos, especially macro and zoom range are good. Very disappointed in this camera. Blurry images and chromatic aberrations abound. This camera changed my opinion about Canon.

The S3 is a good camera. Infact, if you intend to use it primarily during the daytime, and outdoors, its not just good, its great! After using this camera during my photography studies i have come to great satisfaction. I love the camera overall, but in some situations the camera tells me I need a flash.
Horny 8:06pm on Wednesday, March 17th, 2010 
I recommend this camera  I bought this camera around a year ago, never had a Power Shot, it is an excellent camera, easy to use. Great camera, worth every penny  Great pictures LCD screen a little small

Installing Batteries

Batteries are supplied with the unit. The life of these batteries may be limited, however, since their primary purpose was to enable testing. Insert the included batteries as shown in figure, being careful to orient the batteries correctly.

fig.02

When turning the unit upside-down, get a bunch of newspapers or magazines, and place them under the four corners or at both ends to prevent damage to the buttons and controls. Also, you should try to orient the unit so no buttons or controls get damaged. When turning the unit upside-down, handle with care to avoid dropping it, or allowing it to fall or tip over. Make sure the + and ends of the batteries are oriented correctly. When the batteries run down, the POWER indicator gets dim. If this happens, replace with new batteries. When replacing the batteries, use six AA type. Avoid using new batteries together with used ones. In addition, avoid mixing different types of batteries. Doing so can result in fluid leakage. Battery life can vary depending on battery type. Continuous usage time under battery power is about 20 hours with alkaline batteries and about 8 hours with carbon batteries. (This may vary according to usage conditions.) 2

Making the Connections

The power comes on when you insert the connector plug into the INPUT jack. The use of an AC adaptor is recommended as the units power consumption is relatively high. Should you prefer to use batteries, please use the alkaline type. Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch them off. Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using some other make of connection cable, please note the following precautions. Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level to be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For information on cable specifications, contact the manufacturer of the cable. To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before making any connections. If there are batteries in the unit while an AC adaptor is being used, normal operation will continue should the line voltage be interrupted (power blackout or power cord disconnection). Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to your various devices in the order specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices. When powering up: Turn on the power to your guitar amp last. When powering down: Turn off the power to your guitar amp first. Always make sure to have the volume level turned down before switching on power. Even with the volume all the way down, you may still hear some sound when the power is switched on, but this is normal, and does not indicate a malfunction. When operating on battery power only, the units indicator will become dim when battery power gets too low. Replace the battery as soon as possible.

Changing How Memory Numbers Are Indicated
Not only can you confirm the currently selected memory merely by checking the lit MEMORY Number indicators, you can also change the pattern in which the indicators light up. Select the pattern that provides the easiest way to check the memory in any particular environment. When using the OD-20 in dimly lit surroundings, you can confirm memory numbers more easily by using the Lighting Pattern 2 setting. Lighting Pattern 1 (Normal): Only the indicator for the selected memory lights up (or blinks). Lighting Pattern 2: The number of indicators lighting up (or blinking) corresponds to the selected memory number. When MEMORY 1 is selected: Indicator 1 lights up. When MEMORY 2 is selected: Indicators 1 and 2 light up. When MEMORY 3 is selected: Indicators 1, 2, and 3 light up. When MEMORY 4 is selected: Indicators 1, 2, 3, and 4 light up. You can select the indicator lighting pattern by means of the following procedure. 1. Disconnect the connection plug from the INPUT jack to switch off the power. 2. While holding down the MEMORY WRITE button and the MEMORY SELECT button, insert the connection plug into the INPUT jack to switch on the power. When the button is released, either the No. 1 indicator alone blinks, or all indicators from 1 through 4 blink. 3. Press the MEMORY SELECT button to set the MEMORY indicator lighting pattern. Lighting Pattern 1: Indicator 1 alone blinks. Lighting Pattern 2: Indicators 14 all blink. 4. Press the MEMORY WRITE button. After the MEMORY Number indicator(s) begins blinking rapidly, the setting is stored in memory and the unit returns to its ordinary state. * To cancel the setting change, operate the EFFECT ON/OFF pedal or the MANUAL/ MEMORY pedal before pressing the MEMORY WRITE button. The unit will return to its ordinary state.

Returning Settings to Their Factory Defaults
You can restore the memories (14), pedal mode settings, and the MEMORY Number Indication to their original factory values. Memory Settings Memory 1 (p. 23) Memory 2 (p. 24) Memory 3 (p. 24) Memory 4 (p. 24) Pedal Mode (p. 7) LOUD LEAD OD-1 STACK 1 (MANUAL MEMORY 1 MEMORY 2 MEMORY 3 MEMORY 4 MANUAL) Lighting Pattern 1 (Only the indicator for the selected memory lights up.)
MEMORY Number Indication (p. 19)
Carrying out the following procedure completely clears the content currently stored in the memories (14). 1. Disconnect the connection plug from the INPUT jack to switch off the power. 2. While holding down the MEMORY WRITE button, insert the connection plug into the INPUT jack to switch on the power. When you release the button, the MEMORY Number indicators blink. 3. Press the MEMORY WRITE button. After the MEMORY Number indicators begin blinking rapidly, the setting is stored in memory and the unit returns to its ordinary state. * To cancel the setting change, operate the EFFECT ON/OFF pedal or the MANUAL/ MEMORY pedal before pressing the MEMORY WRITE button. The unit will return to its ordinary state.

Troubleshooting

The power doesnt come on.
q Is the guitar connected correctly to the INPUT jack? Check the connections again (p. 34). * The unit wont switch on until a plug is inserted into the INPUT jack. q Have the batteries run down? Replace with fresh batteries (p. 2). q Is the specified AC adaptor (PSA-series sold separately) connected correctly? Check the connections again (p. 34).
Cannot switch amp channels properly
q Is the amps channel switching jack correctly connected to the OD-20s AMP CTRL jack? Check the connections again. q Does the amps channel switch match the polarity of the OD-20s Amp Control? The OD-20s Amp Control is shorted when the indicator is off, and open when the indicator is lit (p. 9). Confirm how amps channels are switched when the circuit is open or shorted.
There is no sound/volume is too low.
q Is the other equipment connected correctly? Check the connections again (p. 34). q Is the volume turned down on the connected guitar amp, effects processor, or other device? Check the settings on the connected equipment (p. 34).
The volume level of the instrument connected to INPUT jack is too low.
q Could you be using a connection cable that contains a resistor? Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.
