2 Tips before you start taking pictures 2 Tips before you start taking pictures Your pictures are almost guaranteed to come out well just by setting the mode dial to h or P and pressing the shutter button. But occasionally, you can’t focus on your subject, or the subject is too dark, or the picture doesn’t come out the way you want… Just knowing which button to press or which setting to change can help you solve these problems.
Holding the camera Sometimes when you look at a picture you have taken, the contours of the subject are blurred. This is often caused by movement of the camera at the precise moment that the shutter button is pressed. 2 To prevent the camera from moving, hold the camera firmly with both hands while keeping your elbows at your sides. When taking pictures with the camera in the vertical position, hold the camera so that the flash is positioned higher than the lens.
If correct focus cannot be obtained The camera automatically detects the focus target in the frame. The level of contrast is one of the criteria it uses to detect the subject. The camera may fail to determine subjects with lower contrast than the surroundings or with an area of extremely strong contrast in the frame. If this happens, the simplest solution is to use the focus lock.
If correct focus cannot be obtained 4 Press the shutter button fully. Shutter button Subjects that are difficult to focus on 2 The green lamp blinks. The subject cannot be brought into focus. Subject with low contrast Subject with an extremely bright area in the center of the frame Subject without vertical lines Subjects at different distances Fast-moving subject The subject is not in the center of the frame The green lamp lights, but the subject cannot be brought into focus.
Record mode You can select a record mode in which to take pictures or shoot movies. Select the best record mode for your purpose (printing, editing on a computer, website editing, etc.). For information on the image sizes for each record mode and memory capacity, see the table on P. 27. Still picture record modes Record mode depicts the image size and compression rate of pictures you wish to record. Pictures are made from thousands of dots (pixels).

Recording pictures Pictures taken are stored in the internal memory. You can also use an xD-Picture Card (referred to as “card” in this manual) to store pictures. The card has greater capacity than the internal memory, and so is able to store more pictures. The card is convenient, for example, when you are traveling and you want to take a lot of pictures.
Using a card Card basics Tips before you start taking pictures 2 The card corresponds to the film of a normal camera for recording the pictures you have taken. Pictures recorded and stored on the card can easily be erased, overwritten, and/or edited on a computer. Using a card with larger capacity increases the number of pictures you can record. c Index area You can use this space to write the contents of the card. d Contact area c The part where the data transferred from the camera enters the card.

Using a card (Removing the card 4 Push the card all the way in and release slowly. • The card protrudes slightly and stops. Caution Tips before you start taking pictures 2 Releasing your finger quickly after pushing the card all the way in may cause it to eject forcefully out of the slot. • Grasp the card and remove. 5 Close the card lock. • Close the card lock or else the card cover does not close. 6 32 Close the card cover.

Print settings (DPOF) How to make print reservations Print reservation allows you to save printing data (the number of prints and the date/ time information) with the pictures stored on the card. Only pictures stored on the card can be reserved to print. Insert a card with recorded pictures into the camera before making print reservations. With print reservation, you can print out pictures easily either at home using a personal DPOF-compatible printer or at a photo store that supports DPOF.
Print settings (DPOF) TIPS Relation between printing and record mode when shooting The resolution of a computer/printer is generally based on the number of dots (pixels) per inch (dpi). Increasing the dpi when printing a picture produces a finer print. However, as the resolution of the picture is not changed, the size of the print will be smaller. You can enlarge the size of the print, but the picture will appear grainy.
