CAMERA IDENTIFICATION See inside cover flaps of manual for camera diagrams.
BATTERY This camera uses a 3-volt lithium KODAK KCR 2 (or equivalent) Battery that supplies power for all camera operations. This camera automatically turns off after 4 minutes. Battery Indicator When the battery symbol (24) “blinks,” you will need to replace the battery soon. When the battery symbol is solid (non-blinking) and the shutter button does not operate, replace the battery immediately.
Battery Tips: • Keep a spare battery with you at all times. Lithium batteries perform consistently until they suddenly die. • Read and follow all warnings and instructions supplied by the battery manufacturer. • Keep battery away from children. • Do not attempt to disassemble, recharge or short circuit the battery, or subject it to high temperature or fire. • Store battery in its original packaging prior to use.
LOADING THE FILM For best all-around results for indoor and outdoor picture-taking, use KODAK ADVANTIX 200 Film. 1. Slide the film-door latch (19) and insert the film cassette completely into the film chamber ➌. Do not force the film cassette into the film chamber. 2. Close the film door (20) to start the auto-film advance. The LCD panel (11) will show the total number of exposures (b).
TAKING PICTURES You can take Classic (C), HDTV (H), and Panoramic (P) pictures on the same film cassette (see following table for Typical Print Sizes).

Typical Print Sizes C H P Classic Group & Wide (HDTV) Panoramic 3 1/2 x 5" or 4 x 6" (88.9 x 127 mm or 102 x 152 mm) 3 1/2 x 6" or 4 x 7" (88.9 x 152 mm or 102 x 178 mm) 3 1/2 x 10" to 4 x 11 1/2" (88.9 x 254 mm to 102 x 292.
Using Red-Eye Reduction, Self-Timer, and Off Flash Red-Eye Reduction — To minimize red eyes in flash pictures, use the red-eye-reduction feature. Self-Time — To include yourself in pictures, use the self-timer feature. Use a tripod (tripod socket [22]) or place the camera on a firm support. The self-timer lamp (3) will blink 10 seconds before the picture is taken. To stop the self-timer function, press the mode button (15) or the on/off button (2).
1. Press the on/off button (2) to turn the camera on ➍. 2. Press the mode button (15) to select red-eye reduction, self-timer, off flash, or auto-flash. NOTE: When there is no arrow visible on the LCD panel (11), you are in the auto-flash mode. 3. Press the shutter button (1) to take a picture ➏.
Tips for Better Pictures • Hold the camera steady when taking pictures. • Keep your pictures simple. Move close enough to your subject so it fills the viewfinder but not closer than 2 1/2 ft (0.8 m). • Take pictures at the subject’s level. Kneel down to take pictures of children and pets. • Hold your camera vertically to capture tall, narrow subjects, such as a waterfall or skyscraper. • Take vertical pictures of a single person at 5 ft (1.5 m) and beyond.
TAKING FLASH PICTURES In dim light, such as indoors or outdoors in heavy shade or on dark overcast days, you need flash. Your camera has a built-in flash which automatically fires when needed. If the flash-warning/self-timer lamp (18) “blinks,” the flash is not fully charged. Wait for the light to turn off before you take a picture. Flash-to-Subject Distance ISO Film Speed Flash-to-Subject Distance 100 21/2 to 10 ft (0.8 to 3 m) 200 21/2 to 14 ft (0.8 to 4.3 m) 400 21/2 to 20 ft (0.
Flash Tips • Turn on room lights and have the subject face the lights to minimize red eyes in pictures. • Stand at an angle to shiny surfaces like windows or mirrors to avoid flash reflection and bright spots in your pictures. • Keep your fingers and other objects away from the picture-taking lens, flash, and meter-cell window to avoid dark or light pictures.
UNLOADING THE FILM After you take the last picture on the film cassette, the film automatically starts to rewind. When the film is fully rewound, the LCD panel (11) displays “0” and an empty cassette symbol (c). When you remove the cassette from the camera, the LCD panel displays “E,” (a). Using the Rewind Button If you don’t want to take pictures on the entire film cassette, you can automatically rewind the film by pressing the rewind button (16).
