◆How to replace the xD-Picture Card ◆
Push the xD-Picture Card into the slot and then
slowly remove your finger. The lock is released and
the xD-Picture Card is pushed out.

Gold marking
Align the gold marking on the xD-Picture Card slot
with the gold contact area on the xD-Picture Card
and push the card firmly all the way into the slot.
●
!
If the xD-Picture Card is oriented incorrectly, it will not go all
the way into the slot. Do not apply force when inserting an
xD-Picture Card.

2Load the batteries correctly as indicated by the
polarity icons.
●
!
Depending on the camera mode and the type of batteries used, the transition from “C” to “V” may occur more
quickly.
●
!
Due to the nature of the battery, the battery low warning may appear early when the camera is used in cold
locations. This is normal. Try warming the batteries in your pocket or a similar location before use.
✽Battery level warning
1) The camera’s estimation of the remaining battery charge varies greatly depending on the camera operation mode.
Consequently, even if “C” or “V” is not displayed in Playback mode, one of them may appear when you change
to Photography mode.
2) Depending on the battery type and the level of charge in the batteries, the camera may run out of power without first
displaying a battery level warning. This is particularly likely to happen when batteries that have run out of charge
once are re-used.
In situation 2), immediately load new or fully charged replacement batteries.
Turn the camera on and check the battery charge.
Checking the battery charge
“C” appears as a small icon on the right-hand
side of the LCD monitor. “V” appears as a large
icon on the LCD monitor.

achieve when you specify the camera settings. A general guide is given below.
1Select the Photography mode (➡P. 34-38, 74-75).
BSpecifies all settings other than Quality, Sensitivity and FinePix COLOR
on the camera.
m/,/.//Selects the best Scene position setting for the scene being shot.
N/M/<Changes the aperture or shutter speed setting so that the action is
frozen, the flow of the motion is conveyed, or the background is out of
focus.
>Adjust all the camera settings yourself.
rRecord a movie.
2Specify the photography settings (➡P.39-43).
eMacro Uses for close-up shots.
dFlash Uses for shots in dark locations or for backlit subjects,
etc.
D
Exposure compensation
Uses the AE exposure as a reference value of 0. This
function brightens (+) or darkens (–) the shot.
3Take the pictures (check the exposure and focus ➡adjust
the shot composition ➡press the shutter button down fully).
★
You can use the menus for more detailed settings (➡P.44-58, 76).
The table below provides a number of sample settings. Use the settings effectively.
To achieve this result Sample settings
To express the motion of the subject Set the Mode dial to “M” and select a slow shutter speed. (Use a
tripod to avoid camera shake.)
To freeze the subject’s movement Set the Mode dial to “M” and select a fast shutter speed.
To make the subject stand out by having the background
out of focus Set the Mode dial to “<” and select a wide aperture setting.
To get a very large depth of focus Set the Mode dial to “<” and select a narrow aperture setting.
To prevent the image from having a red or blue cast
due to the light source
Change the “White balance” setting in the photography menu.
To avoid missing snapshot opportunities Take pictures in AUTO mode (see “Using the Camera”).
To prevent the subject from being overexposed or
underexposed and to show the substance and textures
of the subject clearly.
Use exposure compensation.
Select (+) if the background is pale and (–) if the background is
dark.

xAuto flash mode
Use this mode for ordinary photography. The flash fires as
required by the shooting conditions.
●
!
If pressing the shutter button while the flash is charging, the picture will
be taken without the flash.
bRed-eye reduction
Use this mode to make sure that the subject’s eyes appear
normal when taking pictures of people in low-light
conditions. The flash fires a pre-flash just before the picture
is taken and then fires again to take the actual picture. The
flash fires as required by the shooting conditions.
●
!
If pressing the shutter button while the flash is charging, the picture will
be taken without the flash.
dForced flash
Use this mode in backlit scenes, such as a subject against
a window or in the shade of a tree, or to get the correct
colors when taking a picture under bright lighting. In this
mode, the flash fires in bright as well as dark conditions.
cSlow synchro
This is a flash mode that uses a slow shutter speed. This
allows you to take pictures of people at night that clearly
show both your subjects and the night time backdrop. To
avoid camera shake, always use a tripod.
hSlowest shutter speed
“/” Night scene: up to 3 sec.
nRed-eye reduction + Slow synchro
Use this mode for Slow synchro shots with Red-eye reduction.
●
!
The image may be overexposed when shooting bright scenes.
To take a picture of a main subject at night with the
background brightly lit, use the “/” (Night scene) setting in
Photography mode (➡P.34).
◆Red-eye effect ◆
When using the flash to take a picture of people in low-light conditions, their eyes sometimes
appear red in the picture. This is caused by the light of the flash reflecting off the inside of the eye.
Use Red-eye reduction flash to minimize the likelihood of this effect.
Take the following measures to make Red-eye reduction more effective:
hGet the subjects to look at the camera. hGet as close as possible to the subjects.
Continued
The flash setting changes each time you press the
“d(c)” Flash button. The last flash mode shown is
the mode selected.
●
!
If the flash is used in dusty conditions or when it is snowing,
white dots may appear in the image. This is due to flash
reflecting off the dust particles or snowflakes. Use
Suppressed flash mode to fix the problem.
