the camera is completely dry before changing the battery or the SD
Memory Card. Avoid changing the battery or card where the camera is
likely to get wet or dirty, and make sure that your hands are dry.
• If the camera is very dirty or after it has been used in the sea, make sure
that it is turned off and the battery/card cover is firmly closed before rinsing
it under running tap water or leaving it in a bowl of clean water for a short
time (2 or 3 minutes).

be lost or the card to be damaged.
• Do not bend the SD Memory Card or subject it to violent impact. Keep it away
from water and store away from high temperature.
• Do not remove the SD Memory Card during formatting as this may damage
the card and render it unusable.
• The data on the SD Memory Card may be deleted in the following
circumstances. PENTAX does not accept any liability for data that is deleted
(1) when the SD Memory Card is mishandled by the user.
(2) when the SD Memory Card is exposed to static electricity or electrical
interference.
(3) when the card has not been used for a long time.
(4) when the card is ejected or the battery is removed while the data on the
card is being recorded or accessed.
• The SD Memory Card has a limited service life. If it is not used for a long time,
the data on the card may become unreadable. Be sure to make a backup of
important data on a computer.
• Avoid using or storing the card where it may be exposed to static electricity or
electrical interference.
• Avoid using or storing the card in direct sunlight or where it may be exposed
to rapid changes in temperature or to condensation.
• When using an SD Memory Card with a slow recording speed, recording may
stop while you are taking movies even when there is adequate space in the
memory, or shooting and playback may take a long time.
• For information on compatible SD Memory Cards, visit the PENTAX website
or contact your nearest PENTAX Service Center.

Recorded Pixels and Quality Level of Still Pictures
Choose the number of pixels (size) and quality level (data compression
rate) of still pictures according to how you intend to use the pictures you
have taken.
1
Higher quality levels and numbers of pixels produce clearer images for
printing, but the resulting increase in data volume reduces the total
number of pictures that can be stored in the camera’s built-in memory or
on the SD Memory Card.
The quality of the captured photo or printed picture also depends on the
quality level, exposure compensation, resolution of the printer and a
variety of other factors, so you do not need to select more than the
required number of pixels. As a rough guide, i (1600×1200) is
adequate for making postcard-size prints. Refer to the table below for the
appropriate settings according to use.
Appropriate Number of Recorded Pixels According to Use

Using the Histogram
A histogram is a graph showing the brightness distribution of the image,
with the brightness on the horizontal axis (darkest at the left and
brightest at the right) and the number of pixels on the vertical axis.
The shape of the histogram tells you whether the exposure of the image
is correct or not. If the exposure is correct, the graph peaks in the middle.
If the image is too dark, the peak is on the left side, and if it is too bright,
the peak is on the right side.
With the OptioWP, you can check the brightness distribution of the
image by displaying it on the LCD monitor as well as by referring to the
histogram. Bright portions (where the image is so bright that it is totally
white) blink red on the LCD monitor and dark portions (where the image

[About the red-eye phenomenon]
Taking pictures using the flash may cause the subject's eyes to
appear red in the resulting picture. This phenomenon occurs when
the light from the flash is reflected in the subject's eyes. It can be

reduced by illuminating the area around the subject or moving closer
to the subject and zooming out. Setting the flash mode to c (Auto +
Red-eye) or d (Flash On + Red-eye) is also an effective way of
preventing red eyes.

movie and the movie that was selected as the second half is deleted.)
• When a stitched movie is played back, it may appear to stop for
about one second at the point where the two movies were joined.
This is because, in Movie Edit mode, the movie data is edited in
units of one second, so if the last frame of the first movie lasts less
than one second, it is drawn out to one second when it is joined to
the second movie.
• When two movies are joined together, the second movie file is
deleted.

WARRANTY POLICY
All PENTAX cameras purchased through authorized bona fide photographic
distribution channels are guaranteed against defects of material or workmanship
for a period of twelve months from date of purchase. Service will be rendered, and
defective parts will be replaced without cost to you within that period, provided the
equipment does not show evidence of impact, sand or liquid damage,
mishandling, tampering, battery or chemical corrosion, operation contrary to
operating instructions, or modification by an unauthorized repair shop. The
manufacturer or its authorized representatives shall not be liable for any repair or
alterations except those made with its written consent and shall not be liable for
damages from delay or loss of use or from other indirect or consequential
damages of any kind, whether caused by defective material or workmanship or
otherwise; and it is expressly agreed that the liability of the manufacturer or its
representatives under all guarantees or warranties, whether expressed or
implied, is strictly limited to the replacement of parts as hereinbefore provided. No
refunds will be made on repairs by non-authorized PENTAX service facilities.
Procedure During 12-month Warranty Period
Any PENTAX which proves defective during the 12-month warranty period should
be returned to the dealer from whom you purchased the equipment or to the
manufacturer. If there is no representative of the manufacturer in your country,
send the equipment to the manufacturer, with postage prepaid. In this case, it will
take a considerable length of time before the equipment can be returned to you
owing to the complicated customs procedures required. If the equipment is
covered by warranty, repairs will be made and parts replaced free of charge, and
the equipment will be returned to you upon completion of servicing. If the
equipment is not covered by warranty, regular charges of the manufacturer or of
its representatives will apply. Shipping charges are to be borne by the owner. If
your PENTAX was purchased outside of the country where you wish to have it
serviced during the warranty period, regular handling and servicing fees may be
charged by the manufacturer’s representatives in that country. Notwithstanding
this, your PENTAX returned to the manufacturer will be serviced free of charge
according to this procedure and warranty policy. In any case, however, shipping
charges and customs clearance fees to be borne by the sender. To prove the date
of your purchase when required, please keep the receipt or bills covering the
purchase of your equipment for at least a year. Before sending your equipment
for servicing, please make sure that you are sending it to the manufacturer’s
authorized representatives or their approved repair shops, unless you are
sending it directly to the manufacturer. Always obtain a quotation for the service
charge, and only after you accept the quoted service charge, instruct the service
station to proceed with the servicing.
