INTRODUCTION Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) (page 174) Images can be printed easily in the sequence you want using a DPOF compatible printer. DPOF can also be used when specifying images and quantities for printing by professional print services. PRINT Image Matching III Compatible (page 182) Images include PRINT Image Matching III data (mode setting and other camera setup information). A printer that supports PRINT Image Matching III reads this data and adjusts the printed image accordingly, so your images come out just the way you intended when you recorded them. PictBridge support (page 177) Connect directly to a PictBridge compatible printer and you can print images without going through a computer. Transfer images to a computer simply by connecting the camera with a USB cable (pages 183, 200) USB 2.0 Hi-Speed protocol support (pages 184, 192) This camera supports USB 2.0 Hi-Speed protocol. Though it can be used with a computer that supports only USB 1.1 protocol, higher speed data transfer becomes possible when USB 2.0 Hi-Speed is supported. Connect the camera to a TV with the AV cable and use the TV screen for image recording and viewing (page 149) Ulead Movie Wizard SE VCD (page 212) Bundled Ulead Movie Wizard SE VCD software lets you edit movie files on your computer and create Video CDs. Software can be upgraded to convert files so they can be played by a DVD player. Bundled with Photo Loader and Photohands (pages 204, 207, 216) Your camera comes bundled with Photo Loader, the popular application that automatically loads images from your camera to your PC. It also comes with Photohands, and application that makes image retouching quick and easy.

Precautions

General Precautions
Be sure to observe the following important precautions whenever using the EX-P505. All references in this manual to camera refer to the CASIO EX-P505 Digital Camera. Never try to take pictures or use the built-in display while operating a motor vehicle or while walking. Doing so creates the risk of serious accident. Never try to open the case of the camera or attempt your own repairs. High-voltage internal components create the risk of electric shock when exposed. Always leave maintenance and repair work up to a CASIO authorized service center. Keep the small parts and accessories of this camera out of the reach of small children. If swallowed accidentally, contact your physician immediately. Never fire the flash in the direction of a person operating a motor vehicle. Doing so can interfere with the drivers vision and create the risk of accident.
Never fire the flash while it is too close to the subjects eyes. Intense light from the flash can cause eye damage if it is fired too close to the eyes. This is especially true with young children. When using the flash, the camera should be at least one meter (3.3) from the eyes of the subject. Keep the camera away from water and other liquids, and never let it get wet. Moisture creates the risk of fire and electric shock. Never use the camera outdoors in the rain or snow, at the seashore or beach, in the bathroom, etc. Should foreign matter or water ever get into the camera, immediately turn it off. Next, remove the cameras battery and/or unplug the AC adaptor power cord from the power outlet, and contact your dealer or nearest CASIO authorized service center. Using the camera under these conditions creates the risk of fire and electric shock. Should you ever notice smoke or a strange odor coming out of the camera, immediately turn it off. Next, taking care you do not burn your fingers, remove the cameras battery and/or unplug the AC adaptor power cord from the power outlet, and contact your dealer or nearest CASIO authorized service center. Using the camera under these conditions creates the risk of fire and electric shock. After making sure there is no more smoke coming from the camera, take it to your nearest CASIO authorized service center for repair. Never attempt your own maintenance.

Using the Rapid Charger

[CHARGE] lamp

Attach the lens cap holder to the strap. This protects against accidental loss of the lens cap.

Contacts

I Loading the Battery into the Rapid Charger
Making sure that the positive and negative contacts are aligned correctly, load the battery into the rapid charger. Note that the battery will not charge properly if it is not positioned correctly in the rapid charger.

I To charge the battery

1. Correctly positioning the positive and
negative terminals of the battery, load the battery into the rapid charger.

2. Plug the rapid charger into a household

power outlet.

This will cause the [CHARGE] lamp to turn red. Charging will take about two hours. Note that the shape of the rapid charger depends on the area where you purchased the camera.
NOTE The power cord type rapid charger is designed for operation with any power supply in the range of 100V to 240V AC. Note, however, that the shape of the AC power cord plug varies according to country or geographic area. If you plan to use the rapid charger in a geographic area where the power receptacle shape is different from that in your area, replace the AC power cord with one of the other ones that come with the camera, or purchase a commercially available AC power cord that is compatible with the power outlets in that area.

Rapid Charger

AC power cord
3. The [CHARGE] lamp turns green when

charging is complete.

4. After charging is complete, unplug the rapid
charger from the power outlet, and remove the battery from it.
Always unplug the rapid charger from the power outlet and remove the battery whenever you are not charging.
NOTE The plug-in type rapid charger is designed for operation on power ranging from 100V AC to 240V AC. Note, however, that the shape of the power plug varies according to country or geographic area. When traveling abroad, it is up to you to find out if the shape of the rapid charger power plug is compatible with local power outlets and to purchase any required adaptors.
GETTING READY IMPORTANT! If the battery or rapid charger is very hot or cold when you start charging or if it becomes hot during charging, the rapid charger will enter a standby state, which is indicated when its [CHARGE] lamp is lit amber. Charging will resume when the temperature returns to the allowable charging temperature range, which is indicated when the [CHARGE] lamp turns red. Charging the battery while it is still warm immediately after removing it from the camera can result in only partial charging. Give the battery time to cool before charging it. Battery discharges slightly even when it is left without loading it into the camera. Because of this, it is recommended that you charge the battery immediately before you need to use it. The battery used with this camera is specifically designed for use with digital cameras. If you want to try to use it to power another type of device, you should first check the user documentation that comes with the device to see if the battery is compatible. Though the actual service life of the battery depends on the environment under which it is used, you can expect to be able to recharge it about 500 times before it needs replacement. Charging the battery may cause interference with TV and radio reception. If this happens, plug the charger into an outlet that is further away from the TV or radio. Dirty charger contacts and/or battery terminals can make proper charging impossible. Be sure to wipe contacts and terminals occasionally with a dry cloth to keep them clean.

Xmultiple has designed a new technology called FlashPoint, this technology will allow for users to send data from one FlashPoint device to another FlashPoint device, or to any flash memory based drive currently on the market. With both male and female USB connectors, you simply connect any old flash memory keychain, press the transfer button, and your files get sent over to the other device.

USB Drivers Dev. Tools Writing drivers for Current flash memory devices on the market sadly have no way of transferring files to USB devices Download free you, this would only work for sending files, unless another FlashPoint device is evaluation copy present, then you can exchange files both ways.

Unforunately, Xmultiple will not be selling these devices mainstream, they are primarily technology developers and plan to license this technology flash memory manufacturers, however they are offering pre-order sales of prototype models on their website, a 512MB version will run you $95. The Delkin USB Bridge is a similar product already on the market, however it is strictly for transfering from one USB device to another, it has no internal storage and is alot bigger in size.
