wise subject it to strong impacts.  
• Do not expose the battery to wa-  
ter.  
Battery Life  
Power Supply and Battery  
At normal temperatures, the bat-  
tery can be used at least 300 times.  
If the time for which the battery  
provides power shortens markedly,  
this indicates that the battery has  
reached the end of its effective life  
and should be replaced.  
* Confirm your battery type before read-  
ing the following descriptions.

the battery charger (included).  
- The battery can be charged  
at ambient temperatures be-  
tween 0°C and +40°C (+32°F  
and +104°F). Refer to the Owner’s  
Manual for the time of charging  
battery.  
- You should charge the battery  
at an ambient temperature be-  
tween +10°C and +35°C (+50°F  
and +95°F). If you charge the  
battery at a temperature outside  
this range, charging takes longer  
because the performance of the  
battery is impaired.  
- You cannot charge the battery  
at temperatures of 0°C (+32°F) or  
below.  
• The Rechargeable Lithium-ion Bat-  
tery does not need to be fully dis-  
charged or exhausted flat before  
being charged.  
Notes on storage  
• If a battery is stored for long periods  
while charged, the performance of  
the battery can be impaired. If the  
battery will not be used for some  
time, run the battery out before  
storing it.  
• If you do not intend to use the  
camera for a long period of time,  
remove the battery from the cam-  
era.

Battery Features  
* For details on the batteries that  
you can use, refer to the Owner’s  
Manual of your camera.  
• The battery gradually loses its  
charge even when not used. Use  
a battery that has been charged  
recently (in the last day or two) to  
take pictures.  
Cautions for Using Battery  
• Do not heat the batteries or throw  
them into a fire.  
- Do not leave the battery in hot or  
extremely cold places.  
• To maximize the life of the battery,  
turn the camera off as quickly as  
possible when it is not being used.  
• The number of available frames will  
be lower in cold locations or at low  
temperatures. Take along a spare  
fully charged battery. You can also  
increase the amount of power pro-  
duced by putting the battery in  
your pocket or another warm place  
to heat it and then loading it into  
the camera just before you take a  
picture.  
• Do not carry or store batteries with  
metal objects such as necklaces or  
hairpins.  
• Do not expose the batteries to wa-  
ter, and keep batteries from getting  
wet or stored in moist locations.  
• Do not attempt to take apart or  
change the batteries, including  
battery casings.  
• Do not subject the batteries to  
strong impacts.  
• Do not use batteries that are leak-  
ing, deformed, discolored.  
Handling the Battery  
Cautions for Your Safety:  
• Do not carry or store battery with  
metal objects such as necklaces or  
hairpins.  
• Do not heat the battery or throw it  
into a fire.  
• Do not attempt to take apart or  
change the battery.  
• Do not recharge the battery with  
chargers other those specified.  
• The battery may feel warm after it  
has been charged or immediately  
after being used. This is perfectly  
normal.  
• Do not recharge a fully charged  
battery.  
vi  
For Your Safety  
• Do not store batteries in warm or  
humid places.  
• Keep the batteries out of reach of  
babies and small children.  
• Make sure that the battery polarity  
(C and D) is correct.  
• Do not use new with used batter-  
ies. Do not use charged and dis-  
charged batteries together.  
If any liquid at all leaks from  
the batteries, wipe the battery  
compartment thoroughly and  
then load new batteries.  
• Ni-MH batteries have  
a
limited  
CAUTION  
service life. If a battery can only  
be used for a short time even after  
repeated discharge-charge cycles,  
it may have reached the end of its  
service life.  
Do not use the “Discharging re-  
chargeable batteries” function when  
alkaline batteries being used.  
• To charge Ni-MH batteries, use the  
quick battery charger (sold sepa-  
rately). Refer to the instructions  
supplied with the charger to make  
sure that the charger is used cor-  
rectly.  
If any battery fluid comes into  
contact with your hands or  
clothing, flush the area thor-  
oughly with water. Note that  
battery fluid can cause loss  
of eyesight if it gets into your  
eyes. If this occurs, do not rub  
your eyes. Flush the fluid out  
with clean water and contact  
your physician for treatment.  
Disposing of Batteries  
• When disposing of batteries, do  
so in accordance with your local  
waste disposal regulations.  
• Do not use different types or  
brands of batteries at the same  
time.  
• Do not use the battery charger to  
charge other batteries.  
• Note that the batteries feel warm  
after being charged.  
Notes on both models (

• If you do not intend to use the  
camera for a long period of time,  
remove the batteries from the  
camera. Note if the camera is left  
with the batteries removed, the  
time and date settings are cleared.  
• The batteries feel warm right af-  
ter being used. Before removing  
the batteries, turn the camera off  
and wait for the batteries to cool  
down.  
• Since batteries do not work well in  
cold weather or locations, warm  
the batteries by placing them in-  
side your garments before use.  
Batteries do not work well when  
cold. They will work again when  
the temperature returns to normal.  
• Soil (such as fingerprints) on the  
battery terminals makes the bat-  
teries charge less reducing the  
number of images. Carefully wipe  
the battery terminals with a soft  
dry cloth before loading.  
AC Power Adapter  
Always use the AC Power Adapter  
with the camera. The use of an AC  
Power adapter other than FUJIFILM  
AC Power Adapter can be damaged  
to your digital camera.  
For details on the AC power adapter,  
refer to the Owner’s Manual of your  
camera.  
• Due to the way the camera is con-  
structed, a small amount of current  
is used even when the camera is  
turned off. Note in particular that  
leaving Ni-MH batteries in the  
camera for a long period will over-  
discharge the batteries and may  
render them unusable even after  
recharging.  
• Ni-MH batteries will self-discharge  
even when not used, and the time  
for which they can be used may be  
shortened as a result.  
• Ni-MH batteries will deteriorate  
rapidly if over-discharged (e.g.  
by discharging the batteries in a  
flashlight). Use the “Discharging re-  
chargeable batteries” function pro-  
vided in the camera to discharge  
the batteries.  
Using the AA-size Ni-MH batteries  
correctly  
• Ni-MH batteries left unused in  
storage for long periods can be-  
come “deactivated”. Also, repeat-  
edly charging Ni-MH batteries  
that are only partially discharged  
can cause them to suffer from the  
“memory effect”. Ni-MH batteries  
that are “deactivated” or affected  
by “memory” suffer from the prob-  
lem of only providing power for a  
short time after being charged. To  
prevent this problem, discharge  
and recharge them several times  
using the camera’s “Discharging  
rechargeable batteries” function.  
Deactivation and memory are spe-  
cific to Ni-MH batteries and are not  
in fact battery faults.  
• Use the AC power adapter for in-  
door use only.  
• Plug the connection cord plug se-  
curely into the DC input terminal.  
• Turn off the FUJIFILM Digital cam-  
era before disconnecting the cord  
from the DC input terminal. To dis-  
connect, pull out the plug gently.  
Do not pull on the cord.  
• Do not use the AC power adapter  
with any device other than your  
camera.  
• During use, the AC power adapter  
will become hot to the touch. This  
is normal.

dure for “Discharging rechargeable  
batteries”.

Inserting a Memory Card  
3 Cautions  
Do not turn the camera off or remove the memory card while the memory card is being formatted or data are being recorded to or  
deleted from the card. Failure to observe this precaution could damage the card.  
• Format SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards before first use, and be sure to reformat all memory cards after using  
them in a computer or other device. For more information on formatting memory cards, see “K FORMAT”  
(P93).  
• Memory cards are small and can be swallowed; keep out of reach of children. If a child swallows a memory card,  
seek medical assistance immediately.  
• miniSD or microSD adapters that are larger or smaller than the standard dimensions of an SD/SDHC/SDXC card  
may not eject normally; if the card does not eject, take the camera to an authorized service representative. Do  
not forcibly remove the card.  
• Do not affix labels to memory cards. Peeling labels can cause camera malfunction.  
• Movie recording may be interrupted with some types of SD/SDHC/SDXC memory card. Use a G card or  
better when shooting HD or high-speed movies.  
• The data in internal memory may be erased or corrupted when the camera is repaired. Please note that the  
repairer will be able to view pictures in internal memory.  
• Formatting a memory card or internal memory in the camera creates a folder in which pictures are stored. Do  
not rename or delete this folder or use a computer or other device to edit, delete, or rename image files. Always  
use the camera to delete pictures from memory cards and internal memory; before editing or renaming files,  
copy them to a computer and edit or rename the copies, not the originals.

N MOTION PANORAMA 360  
Shooting ends if the shutter button is pressed all the  
way down during shooting. No panorama will be re-  
corded if the shutter button is pressed before the cam-  
era has been panned through 120°.  
Follow an on-screen guide  
to take photos that will  
automatically be joined to  
form a panorama.  
3 Cautions  
• Panoramas are created from multiple frames. The  
camera may in some cases record a greater or lesser  
angle than selected or be unable to stitch the frames  
together perfectly. The last part of the panorama  
may not be recorded if shooting ends before the  
panorama is complete.  
• Shooting may be interrupted if the camera is panned  
too quickly or too slowly. Panning the camera in a  
direction other than that shown cancels shooting.  
• The desired results may not be achieved with mov-  
ing subjects, subjects close to the camera, unvarying  
subjects such as the sky or a field of grass, subjects  
that are in constant motion, such as waves and wa-  
terfalls, or subjects that undergo marked changes in  
brightness. Panoramas may be blurred if the subject  
is poorly lit.  
Rotate the zoom ring until the zoom indicator  
turns white.

For Best Results  
Program Shift  
For best results, move the camera in a small circle at  
a steady speed, keeping the camera horizontal and  
being careful only to pan in the direction shown by  
the guides. If the desired results are not achieved, try  
panning at a different speed.  
Rotate the command dial to choose the desired com-  
bination of shutter speed and aperture. The default  
values can be restored by raising the flash, rotating  
the mode dial to another setting, turning the cam-  
era off, or selecting playback mode. The flash must  
be off for Program shift to be available. Furthermore,  
an option other than AUTO must be selected for  
U DYNAMIC RANGE and N ISO.

When macro mode is in effect, the camera focuses on subjects near the center of the frame. Use the  
zoom ring to compose pictures. The following restrictions apply in super macro mode: the lens must  
be zoomed all the way out (at other zoom positions, o is displayed) and the flash can not be used.  
1Notes  
• Use of a tripod is recommended to prevent blur caused by camera shake.  
• Flash compensation may be required when using the flash (P 82).  
• Using the flash at close range may cast a lens shadow. Zoom a little or have more distance from the subject.  
33  
N Using the Flash (Super-Intelligent Flash)  
When the flash is used, the camera’s Super-Intelligent Flash system instantly analyzes the scene based  
on such factors as the brightness of the subject, its position in the frame, and its distance from the  
camera. Flash output and sensitivity are adjusted to ensure that the main subject is correctly exposed  
while preserving the effects of ambient background lighting, even in dimly-lit indoor scenes. Use the  
flash when lighting is poor, for example when shooting at night or indoors under low light.  
Raise the flash.  
Press the flash pop-up button to raise the flash.  
1
Turning the Flash Off  
Lower the flash where flash photography is prohibited or to capture natural lighting  
under dim light. At slow shutter speeds, k will be displayed to warn that pictures  
may be blurred; use of a tripod is recommended.

Red-Eye Removal  
When Intelligent Face Detection is active (P 48), and ON is selected for B RED EYE REMOVAL in  
the setup menu (P 96), red-eye removal is available in K, L, and M.

When Intelligent Face Detection (P 48) is on and  
the frame contains multiple subjects from the face  
recognition database, the camera displays the name  
of the subject that will be used to set focus and ex-  
posure (the subject shown by the green frame). If no  
name is entered, the camera will show “---”. Subjects  
identified using face recognition but not used to set  
focus and exposure are shown by orange frames,  
other subjects by white frames.  
3 Caution  
The camera may fail to identify subjects in the face  
recognition database if they are not facing the cam-  
era or are only partly in the frame, or if details of the  
subjects’ faces or expressions differ markedly from  
those in the database.

3 Cautions  
Disconnecting the Camera  
• If a memory card containing a large number of images  
is inserted, there may be a delay before the software  
starts and you may be unable to import or save im-  
ages. Use a memory card reader to transfer pictures.  
• Make sure that the computer does not display a mes-  
sage stating that copying is in progress and that the  
indicator lamp is out before turning the camera off or  
disconnecting the USB cable (if the number of imag-  
es copied is very large, the indicator lamp may remain  
lit after the message has cleared from the computer  
display). Failure to observe this precaution could re-  
sult in loss of data or damage to internal memory or  
the memory card.  
After confirming that the indicator lamp is out, follow  
the on-screen instructions to turn the camera off and  
disconnect the USB cable.  
Uninstalling the Supplied Software  
Only uninstall the supplied software when it is no lon-  
ger required or before beginning reinstallation. After  
quitting the software and disconnecting the camera,  
drag the “FinePixViewer” folder from “Applications”  
into the Trash and select Empty Trash in the Finder  
menu (Macintosh), or open the control panel and use  
“Programs and Features” (Windows 7/Windows Vista)  
or “Add or Remove Programs” (Windows XP) to unin-  
stall MyFinePix Studio. Under Windows, one or more  
confirmation dialogs may be displayed; read the con-  
tents carefully before clicking OK.  
• Disconnect the camera before inserting or removing  
memory cards.  
• In some cases, it may not be possible to access pictures  
saved to a network server using the supplied software  
in the same way as on a standalone computer.  
• The user bears all applicable fees charged by the  
phone company or Internet service provider when  
using services that require an Internet connection.

Caring for the Camera  
To ensure continued enjoyment of the product, observe the following precautions.  
Sttoragee andd UUsse  
Condeennssation  
If the camera will not be used for an extended pe-  
riod, remove the battery and memory card. Do  
not store or use the camera in locations that are:  
• exposed to rain, steam, or smoke  
• very humid or extremely dusty  
• exposed to direct sunlight or very high tempera-  
tures, such as in a closed vehicle on a sunny day  
• extremely cold  
Sudden increases in temperature, such as occur  
when entering a heated building on a cold day,  
can cause condensation inside the camera. If this  
occurs, turn the camera off and wait an hour be-  
fore turning it on again. If condensation forms on  
the memory card, remove the card and wait for  
the condensation to dissipate.  
Cleaning  
• subject to strong vibration  
Use a blower to remove dust from the lens and  
monitor, then gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth.  
Any remaining stains can be removed by wiping  
gently with a piece of FUJIFILM lens-cleaning pa-  
per to which a small amount of lens-cleaning fluid  
has been applied. Care should be taken to avoid  
scratching the lens or monitor. The camera body  
can be cleaned with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use  
alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.  
• exposed to strong magnetic fields, such as near  
a broadcasting antenna, power line, radar emit-  
ter, motor, transformer, or magnet  
• in contact with volatile chemicals such as pesti-  
cides  
• next to rubber or vinyl products  
Wateerr aanndd SSaannd  
Exposure to water and sand can also damage the  
camera and its internal circuitry and mechanisms.  
When using the camera at the beach or seaside,  
avoid exposing the camera to water or sand. Do  
not place the camera on a wet surface.  
Traveling  
Keep the camera in your carry-on baggage.  
Checked baggage may suffer violent shocks that  
could damage the camera.

Notices  
• Specifications subject to change without notice; for the latest information, visit http://www.fujifilm.com/products/  
digital_cameras/index.html. FUJIFILM shall not be held liable for damages resulting from errors in this manual.  
• Although the monitor is manufactured using advanced high-precision technology, small bright points and  
anomalous colors (particularly in the vicinity of text) may appear. This is normal for this type of monitor and  
does not indicate a malfunction; images recorded with the camera are unaffected.  
• Digital cameras may malfunction when exposed to strong radio interference (e.g., electric fields, static electric-  
ity, or line noise).  
• Due to the type of lens used, some distortion may occur at the periphery of images. This is normal.
