Ensuring Longer Battery Life

Stand by Mode • This power saving mode greatly reduces battery power consumption and allows you to quickly turn back on the camera. Press the power switch to enter stand by mode. Press the power switch again to immediately exit stand by mode and resume shooting or playback. • After a certain amount of time elapses in stand by mode (the default setting is 1 hour), the camera turns off (A75; Shut-down timer). All unsaved data is lost when the camera turns off after the set amount of time. Save the data you want to keep before the camera enters stand by mode. Power Off Press and hold the power switch to turn off the camera (force-quit). Almost no battery power is consumed. When you turn on the camera, you are limited to taking only a few pictures and cannot change the settings until Android™ OS starts up completely. Save the data you want to keep before you turn off the camera, just as you would in stand by mode. Reducing Battery Power Consumption While Using the Camera Turn off the functions that are not in use to reduce battery power consumption. We recommend placing the Power control widget on the Android™ platform home screen and turning off these functions as often as possible. See “Using Widgets” (A88) for more information. See “Power Supply Status and Power Saving Function” (A19) for more information about the power saving function. Once the camera enters standby, the power will turn off after the shut-down timer expires. Unsaved data will be lost when the power turns off. Save before proceeding. Do not show this message again.

Notice for Customers in the U.S.A. and Canada Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry of Canada (IC) Declaration of Conformity This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licence- exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this device. FCC/IC RF Exposure Statement This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. Wi-Fi (Wireless LAN Network)/Bluetooth Function

C Recording Position Information for Images To record position information for images, set Record GPS data to On in GPS options in the setup menu (A74). G Easy auto mode A30 By simply framing an image, the camera automatically selects the optimum shooting mode. A Auto mode A31 A (auto) mode is useful for general photography, and it allows you to adjust a variety of settings in the shooting menu (A53) to suit the shooting conditions and the type of shot you want to capture. C Scene A32 When a shooting scene is selected, the camera settings are optimized to take images for that type of scene. • To select a scene mode, tap the icon of the desired scene mode in the shooting mode menu. R Special effects A40 Effects can be applied to images during shooting. 5 different effects are available. • To select an effect, first display the shooting mode menu and then tap the icon of the desired effect. F Smart portrait A41 The camera detects human faces and automatically releases the shutter when they smile (smile timer). The skin softening option can make skin tones of human faces appear smoother. D Movie A69 Shoot movies with sound recorded via the built-in microphone.

Basic Steps for Shooting and Playback

1 Hold the camera steadily in both hands. • Keep fingers and other objects away from the lens, flash, AF-assist illuminator, and microphone. • When taking images in portrait (“tall”) orientation, turn the camera so that the built-in flash is above the lens. 2 Frame the picture. • When the camera automatically selects the optimum scene mode, the shooting mode icon changes (A30). • When the camera detects a face, that face will be framed by a yellow double border (focus area). See “Face Detection” (A58) for more information. • When taking images of subjects other than people, or when framing a subject with which no face is detected, a focus area is not displayed. Frame the picture so that the intended subject is at or near the center of the frame. B Notes About G (Easy Auto) Mode • The desired scene mode may not be selected in certain condition. In this case, select another shooting mode. • When digital zoom is in effect, G is selected as the shooting scene. Step 3 Frame a Picture [ 930] [ 930] [ 930] Shooting mode icon

Step 3 Frame a Picture

Basic Steps for Shooting and Playback C Using a Tripod • We recommend using a tripod to stabilize the camera when shooting in the following situations: - When shooting in dim lighting or when the flash mode (A45) is set to W (Off). - When using the telephoto setting. • Set Vibration reduction in the setup menu (A74) to Off when using a tripod to stabilize the camera during shooting. Using the Zoom Use the zoom control to activate optical zoom. • To zoom in closer to the subject, rotate the zoom control to g (telephoto). • To zoom out and view a larger area, rotate the zoom control to f (wide-angle). When you turn the camera on, the zoom moves to the maximum wide-angle position. • A zoom indicator is displayed at the top of the monitor when the zoom control is rotated. • Digital zoom, which allows you to magnify the subject up to approximately 4× beyond the maximum magnification of the optical zoom, can be activated by rotating and holding the zoom control to g when the camera is zoomed in to the maximum optical zoom position. C Digital Zoom and Interpolation While using digital zoom, the image quality decreases due to interpolation when the zoom is increased beyond the V position. Since the position of V moves to the right as the size of an image decreases, selecting a smaller image size in the image mode setting (A53) allows you to zoom in further without decreasing the image quality due to interpolation. Zoom out Zoom in Optical zoom Digital zoom Small image size

Basic Steps for Shooting and Playback

1 Press the shutter-release button halfway (i.e., press the button slightly until you feel resistance). • When you press the shutter-release button halfway, the camera sets the focus and exposure (shutter speed and aperture value). Focus and exposure remain locked while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. • Once focus is acquired, the focus area glows green. See “Focus Area” (A57) for more information. • When digital zoom is used, the focus area is not displayed and the camera focuses at the center of the frame. Once focus is acquired, the focus indicator (A6) glows green. • If the focus area or the focus indicator flashes red when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the camera is unable to focus. Modify the composition and press the shutter-release button halfway again. 2 Press the shutter-release button all the way (i.e., press the button the rest of the way down). • The shutter is released and the image will be recorded to the memory card or internal memory. • If you press the shutter-release button with too much force, the camera may shake, causing images to be blurred. Press the button gently. Step 4 Focus and Shoot 1 / 250 F3.2 1 / 250 F3.2 1 / 250 F3.2 Focus area

Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover or remove the battery or memory card while the indicator is flashing. Doing so could result in loss of data or damage to the camera or the memory card. B Subjects Not Suitable for Autofocus Autofocus may not perform as expected in the following situations. In some rare cases, the subject may not be in focus despite the fact that the focus area or the focus indicator glows green. • Subject is very dark • Objects of sharply differing brightness are included in the scene (e.g. the sun behind the subject makes that subject appear very dark) • No contrast between the subject and surroundings (e.g. a portrait subject wearing a white shirt is standing in front of a white wall) • Several objects are at different distances from the camera (e.g. the subject is inside a cage) • Regular geometric patterns (e.g. window blind or windows on a skyscraper) • Subject is moving rapidly In the situations noted above, try pressing the shutter-release button halfway to refocus several times, or try focusing on another subject that is at the same distance from the camera as the intended subject (A60). C Touch Shooting The active focus area can be changed when using touch shooting. At the default setting, the shutter can be released by simply tapping a subject in the monitor (A53) without pressing the shutter- release button. C AF-assist Illuminator and Flash If the subject is poorly lit, the AF-assist illuminator (A75) may light when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, or the flash (A44) may fire when the shutter-release button is pressed all the way down. C To Make Sure You Do Not Miss a Shot If you are concerned that you might miss a shot, press the shutter-release button all the way without first pressing it halfway. C Motion Detection In G (easy auto) mode or A (auto) mode, when the camera detects subject movement or camera shake, ISO sensitivity and shutter speed are increased to reduce blurring. In this case, the shutter speed indicator turns green.
