Low battery message  
Cautions about using the battery  
When the battery has fully discharged, the battery icon will turn red and the "Low  
Battery" message will appear.  
Protect batteries, chargers, and memory cards from damage  
Prevent batteries from making contact with metal objects, as this can create a  
connection between the + and – terminals of your battery and lead to temporary or  
permanent battery damage and may cause a re or electric shock.  
Notes about using the battery  
Avoid exposing batteries to very cold or very hot temperatures (below 0 °C/32 °F  
or above 40 °C/104 °F). Extreme temperatures can reduce the charging capacity of  
your batteries.  
When you use the camera for an extended period, the area around the battery  
chamber may become warm. This does not affect the normal use of the camera.  
Do not pull the power supply cord to disconnect the plug from the power outlet,  
as this may cause a re or electric shock.  
In temperatures below 0 °C/32 °F, battery capacity and battery life may decrease.  
Battery capacity may decrease in low temperatures, but will return to normal in  
milder temperatures.  
Remove the batteries from your camera when storing it for an extended period.  
Installed batteries may leak or corrode over time and cause serious damage  
to your camera. Storing the camera for extended periods with the battery  
installed causes the battery to discharge. You may not be able to recharge a fully  
discharged battery.  
Notes about charging the battery  
If the status lamp is off, make sure that the battery is inserted correctly.  
If the camera is on while charging, the battery may not fully charge. Turn off the  
camera before charging the battery.

or electric shock.  
Do not pull the power supply cord to disconnect the plug from the power outlet,  
as this may cause a re or electric shock.  
Let the battery charge for at least 10 minutes before turning on the camera.  
If you connect the camera to an external power source when the battery is  
depleted, using high energy-consuming functions will cause the camera to turn  
off. To use the camera normally, recharge the battery.  
When you do not use the camera for an extended period (3 months or more),  
check the battery and recharge it regularly. If you let the battery discharge  
continually, its capacity and life may decrease, which can lead to a malfunction,  
re, or explosion.

Glossary  
ACB (Auto Contrast Balance)  
Composition  
This feature automatically improves the contrast of your images when the subject is  
backlit or when there is a high contrast between your subject and the background.  
Composition in photography means arranging objects in a photo. Usually, abiding  
by the rule of thirds leads to a good composition.  
AEB (Auto Exposure Bracket)  
DCF (Design rule for Camera File system)  
This feature automatically captures several images at different exposures to help  
you capture a properly-exposed image.  
A specication to dene a le format and le system for digital cameras created by  
the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA).  
AF (Auto Focus)  
Depth of field  
A system that automatically focuses the camera lens on the subject. Your camera  
uses the contrast to focus automatically.  
The distance between the nearest and farthest points that can be acceptably  
focused in a photograph. Depth of eld varies with lens aperture, focal length, and  
distance from the camera to the subject. Selecting a smaller aperture, for example,  
will increase the depth of eld and blur the background of a composition.  
Aperture  
The aperture controls the amount of light that reaches the camera’s sensor.  
Digital zoom  
Camera shake (Blur)  
A feature that articially increases the amount of zoom available with a zoom lens  
(Optical zoom). When using the Digital zoom, the image quality will deteriorate as  
the magnication increases.  
If the camera is moved while the shutter is open, the entire image may appear  
blurred. This occurs more often when the shutter speed is slow. Prevent camera  
shake by raising the sensitivity, using the flash, or using a faster shutter speed.  
Alternately, use a tripod, the DIS or OIS function to stabilize the camera.

Glossary  
DIS (Digital Image Stabilization)  
Exposure  
This feature compensates in real-time for shaking and vibrating while shooting.  
There can be a certain amount of image degradation compare to Optical Image  
Stabilization.  
The amount of light allowed to reach the camera’s sensor. Exposure is controlled by  
a combination of the shutter speed, the aperture value, and ISO sensitivity.  
Flash  
EV (Exposure Value)  
A speed light that helps to create adequate exposure in low-light conditions.  
All the combinations of the camera’s shutter speed and lens aperture that result in  
the same exposure.  
Focal length  
The distance from the middle of the lens to its focal point (in millimeters). Longer  
focal lengths result in narrower angles of view and the subject is magnied. Shorter  
focal lengths result in wider angles of view.  
EV Compensation  
This feature allows you to quickly adjust the exposure value measured by the  
camera, in limited increments, to improve the exposure of your photos. Set the EV  
compensation to -1.0 EV to adjust the value one step darker and 1.0 EV to one step  
brighter.  
H.264/MPEG-4  
A high-compression video format established by international standard  
organizations ISO-IEC and ITU-T and developed by the Joint Video Team (JVT). This  
codec is capable of providing good video quality at low bit rates.  
Exif (Exchangeable Image File Format)  
A specication to dene an image le format for digital cameras created by the  
Japan Electronic Industries Development Association (JEIDA).  
Image sensor  
The physical part of a digital camera that contains a photosite for each pixel in  
the image. Each photosite records the brightness of the light that strikes it during  
an exposure. Common sensor types are CCD (Charge-coupled Device) and CMOS  
(Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor).

Glossary  
ISO sensitivity  
MJPEG (Motion JPEG)  
The sensitivity of the camera to light, based on the equivalent lm speed used in  
a lm camera. At higher ISO sensitivity settings, the camera uses a higher shutter  
speed, which can reduce blur caused by camera shake and low light. However,  
images with high sensitivity are more susceptible to noise.  
A video format which is compressed as a JPEG image.  
Noise  
Misinterpreted pixels in a digital image that may appear as misplaced or random,  
bright pixels. Noise usually occurs when photos are shot with a high sensitivity or  
when a sensitivity is automatically set in a dark place.  
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)  
A lossy method of compression for digital images. JPEG images are compressed to  
reduce their overall le size with minimal deterioration of the image resolution.  
Optical zoom  
This is a general zoom which can enlarge images with a lens and does not degrade  
the quality of images.  
LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)  
A visual display commonly used in consumer electronics. This display needs a  
separate backlight, such as CCFL or LED, to reproduce colors.  
Quality  
An expression of the rate of compression used in a digital image. Higher quality  
images have a lower rate of compression, which usually results in a larger le size.  
Macro  
This feature allows you to capture close-up photos of very small objects. When  
using the macro feature, the camera can maintain a sharp focus on small objects at  
a near life-size ratio (1:1).  
Resolution  
The number of pixels present in a digital image. High resolution images contain  
more pixels and typically show more detail than low resolution images.  
Metering  
The metering refers to the way in which the camera measures the quantity of light  
to set the exposure.

Glossary  
Shutter speed  
Shutter speed refers to the amount of time it takes to open and close the shutter,  
and it is an important factor in the brightness of a photo, as it controls the amount  
of light which passes through the aperture before it reaches the image sensor. A  
fast shutter speed allows less time to let light in and the photo becomes darker and  
more easily freezes subjects in motion.  
Vignetting  
A reduction of an image’s brightness or saturation at the periphery (outer edges)  
compared to the center of the image. Vignetting can draw interest to subjects  
positioned in the center of an image.  
White balance (color balance)  
An adjustment of the intensities of colors (typically the primary colors red, green,  
and blue), in an image. The goal of adjusting the white balance, or color balance, is  
to correctly render the colors in an image.
