the ISO sensitivity

reduces the amount of light needed to make an exposure, allowing pictures to be taken in low light conditions. A hig her sensitivity also allows for faster shutter speeds, reducing blur caused by subject movement or camera shake. • High ISO sensitivity settings are useful when taking pictures in dim lighting, when shooting without a flash, or when using the telephoto setting, but they may also produce"noise" randomly spaced, brightly colored pixels in the dark areas of images. Option ' Description Sensitivity is ISO 125 when there is sufficient lighting; the AUTOAuto (default setting) camera compensates by raising sensitivity to a maximum of ISO 800 when lighting is poor. Limit the camera's automatically adjusted ISOsensitivity range n to between ISO 12S and ISO400. By limiting the ISOsensitivity Is0 Fixed range auto to a maximum of 400, this option moderates the amount of "grain" that appears in pictures. 125, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200 Sensitivity is locked at the specified value. _1_ Notes on ISO Sensitivity • There are functions with which this setting cannot be enabled.

The human brain is able to adapt to changes in the color of the light source, with the result that white objects appear white whether seen in the shade, direct sunlight, or under incandescent lighting. Digital cameras can mimic this adjustment by processing images according to the color of the light source. This is known as "white balance." For natural coloration, choose a white balance setting that matches the light source before shooting. Althoug h the default setting, Auto, can be used under most types of lighting, the white balance setting suited to a particular light source can be specified manually to achieve more accurate results. option AUTOAuto (default setting) White balance automatically adjusted to suit lighting conditions.

Life and Performance

[] The Battery • Check the battery level before using the camera and replace or charge the battery if necessary. Do not continue charging once the battery is fully charged as this will result in reduced battery performance, Whenever possible, carry a fully charged spare battery when taking pictures on important occasions, • Do not use the battery at am blent temperatures below O°C (32°F) or above 40°C (104°F). • Charge the battery indoors with an ambient temperature of 5°C to 35°C (41 °F to 95°F) before use, • When charging the battery inserted into the COOLPIX $100 using the Charging AC Adapter EH 69P or a computer, the charge capacity may decrease at ambient temperatures 45°C to 60°C (113°F to 140°F). • The battery is not charged at battery temperatures below O°C (32°F) or above 60°C (140°F). • Note that the battery may become hot during use; wait for the battery to cool before charging. Failure to observe these precautions could damage the battery, impair its performance, or prevent it from charging normally. • On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease, Be sure that the battery is fully charged before heading outside to take pictures in cold weather. Keep spare batteries in a warm place and exchange as necessary, Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its charge. • Dirt on the battery terminals can prevent the camera from functioning. Should the battery terminals become dirty, wipe them off with a clean, dry cloth before use. • If the battery will not be used for some time, insert it in the camera and run it flat before removing it for storage. The battery should be stored in a cool location with an ambient temperature of 1S°C to 25°C (S9°F to 77°F), Do not store the battery in hot or extremely cold locations. • Always remove the battery from the camera or optional battery charger when it is not being used. When inserted, minute amounts of current are drawn from the battery even when not in use, This may result in excessive draining of the battery and complete loss of function. Tu rning the camera on or off while the battery is exhausted can result in reduced battery life. • Recharge the battery at least once every six months and completely exhaust it before returning it to storage, • After removing the battery from the camera or optional battery charger, put the battery in the included battery case and store it in a cool place, • A marked drop in the time a fully charged battery retains its charge, when used at room temperature, indicates that the battery needs to be replaced. Purchase a new EN EL19 battery. • Replace the battery when it no longer holds a charge, Used batteries are a valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accordance with local regulations. [] Charging AC Adapter Information • The Charging AC Adapter EH 69P is _r use only with compatible devices. Do not use with another make or model of device, • The EH 69P is compatible with AC 1O0 240 V, 50/60 Hz electrical outlets, When using in other countries, use a plug adapter (available commercially) as necessary, For more information about plug adapters, consult your travel agency, • Do not, under any circumstances, use another make or model of AC adapter other than Charging AC Adapter EH 69P or USB AC adapter, Failure to observe this precaution could result in overheating or in damage to the camera, 2- z o o_
