BASIC OPERATION

USING THE ZOOM LENS

This camera is equipped with a unique 5.7 - 17.1mm zoom lens. This is equivalent to a 37 to 111mm lens on a 35mm camera. The lens is operated by the controller at the back of the camera. The effect of the optical zoom is visible in both the viewfinder and LCD monitor. To zoom in on the subject, push the up key (T) of the controller. To zoom out, push the down key (W) of the controller. While zooming, the zoom indicator is displayed on the LCD monitor to show the approximate zoom position. The digital-zoom function can increase the power of the lens. The digital zoom is activated in section 3 of the recording-mode menu (p. 59).

(Continued on next page) 27
Press the shutter-release button all the way down to take the picture.
After the shutter releases, the indicator lamp next to the viewfinder will turn orange and blink indicating image data is being written to the memory card. Never remove a memory card while data is being transferred. transferred The image can be previewed after it is captured by continuing to hold down the shutter-release button. This function is disabled if the monitor is off. Instant playback also can be used (p. 60).
Automatic Digital Subject Program Selection
Automatic Digital Subject Program Selection chooses between program AE and one of four digital subject programs. The digital subject programs optimize camera setting for various conditions and subjects. Automatic Digital Subject Program Selection is only available in the digital-subjectprogram mode. For information on individual subject programs, see page 35.
A row of gray indicators at the top on the monitor display indicate Automatic Digital Subject Program Selection is active. Press the shutter-release button partway down; the AF system locates the subject and the Automatic Digital Subject Program Selection chooses a subject program. If no indicators are displayed, programmed AE is active. Press the shutter-release button all the way down to take the picture.
Program autoexposure (the Digital Subject Program indicators disappear) Portrait Sports action Landscape Sunset Hold the camera steadily when the sunset subject program is selected as exposures can be long. In the digital-subject-program mode, one of five digital subject programs can be selected manually by using the left and right keys of the controller before taking a picture. See page 35.

FOCUS LOCK

The focus-lock function is used when you want to compose the image with the subject off-center and outside the focus frame. Focus lock may also be used when a special focusing situation prevents the camera from focusing on the subject. This function is controlled with the shutter-release button. Place the subject within the monitor focus frame or center the subject in the viewfinder. Press and hold the shutter-release button partway down to lock the focus.
The focus signal on the monitor and the viewfinder indicator lamp will indicate if the focus is locked.
Without lifting your finger from the shutter-release button, recompose the subject within the image area. Press the shutter-release button all the way down to take the picture.

FOCUS RANGE

The focus range is 15cm (0.5ft.) to infinity. Both the LCD monitor and viewfinder can be used to frame the subject. However, because of parallax, only the monitors live image will be accurate with subjects closer than 1m (3ft.) at the zoom lens wide-angle position or 3m (10ft) at the telephoto position.

FOCUS SIGNALS

This digital camera has a quick, accurate autofocusing system. The focus signal in the lower right corner of the LCD monitor and the indicator lamp next to the viewfinder indicate the focus status. The shutter can be released regardless if the camera can focus on the subject or not. Focus confirmed - the LCD monitor focus signal is white, the viewfinder indicator lamp is green and steady. Focus is locked. Cannot focus - the LCD monitor focus signal is red and the viewfinder indicator lamp is green and blinks rapidly.

Continuous advance

The continuous-advance drive mode allows a series of images to be captured while holding down the shutter-release button. The number of images that can be captured at one time and the rate of capture depend on the image-quality and image-size setting. With the image-size setting of 2048 X 1536, the maximum rate of capture is 1.5 fps. Continuous advance is selected in the section 1 of the recording-mode menu (p. 43). Compose the picture as described in the basic recording operation section (p. 27). Press the shutter-release button partway down to lock the exposure and focus for the series (1). Press and hold the shutter-release button all the way down (2) to begin taking pictures. When the shutter-release button is pressed and held, the camera will begin recording images until the maximum number has been taken or the shutter button is released. The built-in flash can be used, but the rate of capture is reduced because the flash must recharge between frames. Date imprinting (p. 58) also reduces the rate of capture. The frame counter is adjusted after the series has been taken while the images are being saved. The chart lists the maximum number of images that can be captured with different image-quality and image-size combinations.

Self-timer

Used for self-portraits, the self-timer will delay the release of the shutter for approximately ten seconds after the shutter-release button is pressed. The self-timer drive mode is selected in section 1 of the recording-mode menu (p. 43). With the camera on a tripod, compose the picture as described in the basic recording operation section (p. 27). Focus lock (p. 30) can be used with off-center subjects. Press the shutter-release button partway down to lock the exposure and focus (1). Press the shutter-release button all the way down to begin the countdown (2). Because focus and exposure are determined when the shutter-release button is pressed, do not stand in front of the camera when taking a self-timer image. Always confirm the focus with the focus signals before beginning the countdown (p. 31). A countdown timer is displayed on the monitor. During the countdown, the self-timer lamp on the front of the camera (3) will start to blink and is accompanied by an audio signal. A few seconds before the exposure, the self-timer lamp will blink rapidly. The lamp will glow steadily just before the shutter fires. To stop the countdown, press the up/down keys of the controller or the menu button. The drive mode will be reset to single-frame advance after the exposure. The audio signal can be turned off in section 2 of the setup menu (p. 93).

Multi frame

The multi-frame drive mode captures a series of nine consecutive images and lays them out in a single frame. Multi frame is selected in section 1 of the recording-mode menu (p. 43). Compose the picture as described in the basic recording operation section (p. 27). Press the shutter-release button partway down to lock the exposure and focus for the series. Press the shutter-release button all the way down to begin recording the nine-frame series. Once the series starts, the shutter button can be released; the camera will continue taking pictures until all nine frames have been captured. Flash can not be used and is canceled automatically. Because of the limits to the shutter speeds in this drive mode, images may be underexposed in low-light conditions. The pixel dimensions set in the image-quality menu option refer to the total area of all nine images, not the size of each individual thumbnail.
IMAGE SIZE AND IMAGE QUALITY
Changing image size affects the number of pixels in each image. The greater the image size, the larger the file size. Choose image size based on the final use of the image - smaller images will be more suitable for web sites whereas larger sizes will produce higher quality prints.

FINE STD. ECON.

Fine - high-quality JPEG image. Standard - the default setting. (JPEG) Economy - the smallest file sizes. (JPEG)
Image quality controls the rate of compression, but has no effect on the number of pixels in the image. The higher the image quality, the lower the rate of compression and the larger the file sizes. If economical use of the memory card is important, use the economy mode. Standard image quality is sufficient for normal usage. The fine mode will produce the highest quality image and the largest image files. Image size and quality must be set before the picture is taken. Changes are displayed on the LCD monitor. Image size and quality must be reset manually. Image size and quality are set in section 1 of the recording-mode menu. See navigating the recording mode menu section on page 42. If image size or quality are changed, the frame counter will display the approximate number of images that can be recorded at that setting on the installed memory card. One memory card can contain images with differing sizes and qualities. The number of images that can be stored on a memory card is determined by the size of the card and the file size of the images. The actual file size is determined by the scene; some subjects can be compressed further than others. See the chart on the following page.

Camera Notes

The frame counter indicates the approximate number of images that can be stored on the memory card at the cameras image quality and size settings. If the settings are changed, the frame counter adjusts accordingly. Because the counter uses approximate file sizes, the actual image taken may not change the counter or may decrease it by more than one. When the frame counter displays zero, it indicates no more images at the image size and quality settings can be captured. Changing those settings may allow more images to be saved to the card.

WHITE BALANCE

White balance is the cameras ability to make different types of lighting appear neutral. The effect is similar to selecting daylight or tungsten film, or using color compensating filters in conventional photography. One automatic and four preset white-balance setting are available with still image and movie recording. White balance is set in section 1 of the recording-mode menu (p. 43) or in section 2 of the movie/audio recording menu (p. 66). When auto reset (p. 55) is active, the white balance will be reset to automatic white balance when the camera is turned off. The automatic white balance compensates for the color temperature of a scene. In most cases, the auto setting will balance the ambient light and create beautiful images, even under mixed-lighting conditions. When the built-in flash is used, the white balance is set for the color temperature of the flash. Preset white-balance settings must be set before the image is taken. When one of the preset white-balance settings is selected, an indicator will be displayed on the LCD monitor to indicate the active white-balance setting; the effect is immediately visible on the monitor. To record the ambient light, set the flash mode to flash cancel (p. 32). The built-in flash can be used with preset white-balance, but will create a pinkish or blueish cast with the fluorescent and tungsten settings. The flash is daylight balanced and will produce good results with the daylight and cloudy settings. Daylight - for outdoor and sunlit subjects. Cloudy - for overcast outdoor scenes. Tungsten - for incandescent lighting: household filament light bulbs. Fluorescent - for fluorescent lighting: office ceiling lights.
CUSTOMIZING KEY FUNCTIONS

Initially in the recording mode, exposure compensation is adjusted with the left/right keys of the controller, see page 40. The function adjusted with these keys can be changed in section 1 of the recording-mode menu. This function does not affect the movie recording mode. Select the key func. option in section 1 of the recording mode menu. Use the up/down keys to select the function (1). Press the central controller button to set the function (2). The selected function will now be activated when the left/right controller keys are pressed in the recording mode.
Exp. comp. White balance Drive mode Sensitivity Off
Refer to the following sections for information on the drive mode (p. 44), white balance (p. 50), and camera sensitivity (p. 52). For information on exposure compensation and the use of the left/right keys for making settings, see page 40.

CAMERA SENSITIVITY - ISO

Four camera sensitivity settings can be selected with a still image: Auto, 50, 100, 200, 400; the numerical values are based on an ISO equivalent. ISO is the standard used to indicate film sensitivity: the higher the number, the more sensitive the film. Sensitivity can be changed in section 2 of the recording-mode menu (p. 43). The auto setting automatically adjusts the camera sensitivity to the light conditions between ISO 50 and ISO 160. When any other setting than auto is used, ISO and the set value will appear on the LCD monitor. A specific sensitivity setting can be selected. As the ISO value doubles, the camera sensitivity doubles. Like grain in silver-halide film that increases with speed, noise increases with the sensitivity in digital imaging; an ISO setting of 50 will have the least noise and 400 will have the most.
FLASH RANGE AND CAMERA SENSITIVITY
Because of the optical system, the flash range is not the same at the lens wide-angle position as it is at the telephoto position.

METERING MODES

The icons indicating the metering modes are displayed on the monitor. The metering mode is set in section 2 of the recording mode menu (p. 43). Multi-segment metering: uses 256 segments to measure luminance and color. This data is combined with distance information to calculate the camera exposure. This advanced metering system will give accurate worry-free exposures in almost all situations. Spot metering: uses a small area within the image to calculate the exposure. When this mode is selected, the LCD monitor will automatically activate if off and a small circle will appear in the middle of the live image indicating the measuring area. The spot allows precise exposure measurements of a particular object without being influenced by extremely bright or dark areas within the scene. If the LCD monitor is turned off, the spotmetering mode will remain active. Spot-metering area Spot-metering indicator

VOICE MEMO
Voice memo allows an audio track up to fifteen second to be recorded with a still image. The function is activated in section 3 of the recording-mode menu (p. 43). When the function is active, the microphone indicator is displayed on the LCD monitor. The voice memo must be set before taking a picture. It will remain in effect until reset. When the LCD monitor is turned off (p. 34), it will automatically activate for the voice-memo period. After an image is captured, a screen will appear indicating the audio recording has started. A bar graph (1) will display the amount of recording time remaining.

56 RECORDING - ADVANCED

To stop the recording, press the shutterrelease button or the center button of the controller (2). The recording will automatically stop when the fifteen-second limit has elapsed. Voice memo is attached to the last image of a continuous-advance series (p. 45). When played back, images with voice-memo audio tracks have a note icon displayed with them (p. 68). In section 1 of the playback mode menu, a voice memo attached to an image can be deleted (p. 73).
When making audio recordings, be careful not to touch or cover the microphone. The quality of the recording is proportional to the subject to microphone distance. For best results, hold the camera approximately 20cm (8in) from your mouth.

DATE IMPRINTING

The date and time of recording can be printed directly on the image. The imprinting function must be activated before the image is taken. Once activated, the date will continue to be imprinted until the function is reset; a yellow bar is displayed behind the frame counter on the monitor to indicate the imprinting function is active.
Date-imprinting indicator
Date imprinting is activated with section 3 of the recording-mode menu (p. 43). Date imprinting has two menu options. The YYYY/MM/DD option prints the date. The MM/DD/hr:min option prints the month, day, and time of recording. The date and time are imprinted in the lower right corner of the image when viewed horizontally. It is printed directly on the photograph writing over the image information. The date can be imprinted in three formats: year / month / day, month / day / year, and day / month / year. The date and date format are set in section 3 of the setup-mode menu (p. 98).

The audio recording mode uses a blue screen. In stand-by, the monitor shows the approximate recording time available.
Press shutter button to record.
To begin recording, press and release the shutter button (1). The frame counter will display the elapsed time; during the last ten seconds, the counter will turn red and count down the time. The recording will stop when the shutter-release button is pressed again or the remaining time has elapsed. When making audio recordings, be careful not to touch or cover the microphone. The quality of the recording is proportional to the subject to microphone distance. For best results, hold the camera approximately 20cm (8in) from your mouth.

The formatting function is used to erase all data on a memory card. Before formatting a memory card, copy the data to a computer or storage device. Locking images will not protect them from being deleted when the card is formatted. Always format the memory card using the camera; never use a computer to format a card. When the format option is selected and entered in section 1 of the setup menu (p. 90), a confirmation screen will appear. Choosing Yes will format the card, choosing No will cancel the formatting operation. A screen will appear to indicate the card has been formatted. If the unable-to-use-card message appears, the inserted card in the camera may need to be formatted. A memory card used in another camera may also have to be formatted before being used.

FILE NUMBER (#) MEMORY

If file number memory is selected, when a new folder is created, the first file stored in the folder will have a number one greater than the last file saved. If the file number memory is disabled, the image file number will be 0001. File number memory is activated in section 1 of the setup menu. If file number memory is active and the memory card is changed, the first file saved to the new card will have a number one greater than the last file saved on the previous card if the new card does not contain an image with a greater file number. If it does, the file number of the new image will be one greater than the greatest on the card.

FOLDER NAME

All recorded images are stored in folders on the memory card. Folder names come in two formats, standard and date. Standard folders have an eight character name. The initial folder is named 100KM002. The first three digits are the folders serial number, which will increase by one each time a new folder is created. The next two letters refer to Konica Minolta, and the last three numbers indicate the camera used; 002 indicates a DiMAGE Xg. A date folder name also starts with the three digit serial number and is followed by one register for the year, two register for the month, and two registers for the day: 101YMMDD. The folder 10140124 was created in 2004 on January 24th.

Batteries

Battery performance decreases with temperature. In cold environments, we recommend keeping spare batteries in a warm place, such as the inside of a coat. Batteries can recover their power when they warm up. Do not store the battery when it is fully charged. When storing the battery for extended periods, recharge it for five minutes every six months. The battery may not be able to be charged if completely exhausted. A special built-in, long-life battery supplies power to the clock and memory when the camera is turned off. If the camera resets each time it is turned off, the battery is exhausted. It must be replaced at a Minolta service facility. Keep battery and camera charger contacts clean. Dirty contacts can prevent charging. If the contacts become dirty, wipe them with a cotton swab.
Before important events and journeys
Check the cameras operation; take test pictures and purchase spare batteries. Minolta has no responsibility for any damage or loss incurred by equipment malfunction.
Operating temperatures and conditions
This camera has been designed for use in temperatures from 0C to 40C (32F to 104F). Never leave the camera exposed to extreme high temperatures, such as in a car parked in the sun, or to extreme humidity. When taking the camera from a cold to a warm environment, place it in a sealed plastic bag to prevent condensation from forming. Allow the camera to come to room temperature before removing it from the bag.

LCD monitor care

The LCD monitor is manufactured using high-precision technology and more than 99.99% of the pixels operate properly. Less than 0.01% of the monitor pixels are displayed as color or bright points; this is not a monitor defect and does not affect the recorded image. Do not apply pressure to the surface of the LCD monitor; it may be permanently damaged. In cold temperatures, the LCD monitor may become temporarily dark. When the camera warms up, the display will function normally. The LCD monitor may be slow to react in low temperatures or may turn dark in a hot environment. When the camera reaches normal operating temperature, the display will function normally. If fingerprints are on the LCD monitor surface, gently wipe with a soft, clean, dry cloth.
