CAUTIONS
ꢀ Do not place this camera in damp or dusty locations. This may cause a fire or an electrical shock.
ꢀ Do not place this camera in a location affected by oil fumes or steam, such as near a cooking stove or humidifier.
This may cause a fire or an electrical shock.
ꢀ Exposure to high temperatures may adversely affect the camera case and internal components and may cause a
fire.
ꢀ Do not cover or wrap the camera or the AC power adapter with a cloth or quilt. This may cause heat to build up and
distort the case and cause a fire. Always use the camera and its accessories in well-ventilated locations
ꢀ Handle the camera carefully and do not bump the camera into any hard object. Handling the camera roughly may
cause a malfunction.
E
ꢀ Do not move the camera while it is switched on. (If you are using the AC power adapter, unplug the adapter from the
AC power outlet after you have switched off the camera.) Ensure that any connector cords or cables to other de-
vices are disconnected before moving the camera. Failure to do so may damage the cords or cables and cause a
fire or an electrical shock.
ꢀ When leaving the camera unused for long periods, such as during a vacation, always unplug the camera from the
power source (batteries or AC power adapter) for safety. (if you are using the AC power adapter, unplug the adapter
from the AC power outlet after you have disconnected the camera.) Failure to do so could result in a fire.
ꢀ Do not use batteries other than those specified for use with your camera. The use of unsuitable batteries may result
in the batteries splitting or leaking and causing a fire, injury, or soiling of the battery compartment.
ꢀ When fitting batteries into the camera, check the polarity markings on the battery (- and +) to ensure that you insert
the battery correctly. Incorrect battery polarity may result in the batteries splitting or leaking and causing a fire,
injury, or soiling of the battery compartment.
ꢀ
Remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for an extended period of time. The batteries may leak and
cause a fire, injury or soiling of the battery compartment. If the batteries leak, clean and wipe the battery compart-
ment carefully and install new batteries. Wash your hands carefully if you touch the battery fluid.

WHITE BALANCE
When the brightness of the light changes, our eyes adapt so that the white object remains white.

looks brighter or darker. This is called EV compensation.
This camera offers EV compensation across a range of [±1.8]EV in 1/3EV steps.
