Inserting the Batteries  
The camera takes two AA alkaline (LR6) batteries (supplied) or two AA rechargeable Ni-MH batteries  
(sold separately). Insert the batteries in the camera as described below.  
Open the battery-chamber cover.  
Close the battery-chamber cover.  
1
3
ANote  
Be sure the camera is  
off before opening the  
battery-chamber cover.  
C Cautions  
• Do not open the battery-  
chamber cover when  
the camera is on. Failure to observe this  
precaution could result in damage to image  
files or memory cards.  
C Cautions  
• Insert the batteries in the correct orientation.  
Never use batteries with  
Batteryy caassiinngg  
peeling or damaged casing  
or mix old and new batteries,  
batteries with different charge  
levels, or batteries of different  
types. Failure to observe these precautions  
could result in the batteries leaking or  
overheating.  
Never use manganese or Ni-Cd. Replace AA alkaline  
batteries with batteries of the same make and  
grade as those supplied with the camera.  
If the battery-chamber cover can not be latched easily,  
confirm the battery orientation first. Do not use  
excessive force to latch it.  
• Do not use excessive force when handling the  
battery-chamber cover.  
Insert the batteries.  
2
Insert the batteries in the  
orientation shown by the  
E” and “F” marks inside  
the battery chamber.  
4
Inserting a Memory Card  
Although the camera can store pictures in internal memory, SD memory cards (sold separately) can  
be used to store additional pictures.  
When no memory card is inserted, dappears in the monitor and internal memory is used for recording  
and playback. Note that because camera malfunction could cause internal memory to become  
corrupted, the pictures in internal memory should periodically be transferred to a computer and  
saved on the computer hard disk or on removable media such as CDs or DVDs. The pictures in  
internal memory can also be copied to a memory card (see page 65). To prevent internal memory  
from becoming full, be sure to delete pictures when they are no longer needed.  
When a memory card is inserted as described below, the card will be used for recording and playback.  
Compatiibbllee MMeemmoorryy CCaarrddss  
SanDisk SD and SDHC memory cards have been tested and approved for use in the camera. A  
complete list of approved memory cards is available at http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_  
cameras/index.html. Operation is not guaranteed with other cards. The camera can not be used with  
MultiMediaCard (MMC) or xD-Picture cards.  
C Caution  
Memory cards can be locked, making it impossible to format the card or to record  
or delete images. Before inserting a memory card, slide the write-protect switch to  
the unlocked position.

Be sure card is in correct  
orientation; do not insert  
at an angle or use force.

Inserting a Memory Card  
Removing Memory Cards  
Be sure the camera is off before opening the  
battery-chamber cover. Press the card in and then  
release it slowly. The card can now be removed by  
hand.  
C Cautions  
• The memory card may spring out if you remove  
your finger immediately after pushing the card in.  
• Memory cards may be warm to the touch after  
being removed from the camera. This is normal  
and does not indicate a malfunction.  
7
Inserting a Memory Card  
C Cautions  
• Format 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 page 73.  
• 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.  
• Do not use miniSD or microSD adapters that expose the back of the card. Failure to observe  
this precaution may cause damage or malfunction. Adapters that are larger or smaller than  
the standard dimensions of an SD 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 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.  
• Do not affix labels to memory cards. Peeling labels can cause camera malfunction.  
• Movie recording may be interrupted with some types of memory card.  
• 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.

Autofocus  
Although the camera boasts a high-precision autofocus system, it may be unable to focus on the subjects  
listed below. If the camera is unable to focus using autofocus, use focus lock (pg. 19) to focus on another  
subject at the same distance and then recompose the photograph.  
• Very shiny subjects such as mirrors or car bodies.  
• Fast-moving subjects.  
• Subjects photographed through a window or other reflective object.  
• Dark subjects and subjects that absorb rather than reflect light, such as hair or fur.  
• Insubstantial subjects, such as smoke or flame.  
• Subjects that show little contrast with the background (for example, subjects in clothing that is the same  
color as the background).  
• Subjects positioned in front of or behind a high-contrast object that is also in the focus frame (for example, a  
subject photographed against a backdrop of highly contrasting elements).

Viewing Pictures on a Computer  
C Cautions  
Disconnecting the Camera  
• Use only memory cards that have been formatted  
in the camera and contain pictures taken with  
the camera. If a memory card containing a large  
number of images is inserted, there may be a delay  
before FinePixViewer starts and FinePixViewer may  
be unable to import or save images. Use a memory  
card reader to transfer pictures.  
• Make sure the indicator lamp is out before turning  
the camera off, disconnecting the USB cable or  
pulling the memory card out. Failure to observe this  
precaution could result in loss of data or damage to  
internal memory or the memory card.  
• 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  
FinePixViewer in the same way as on a standalone  
computer.  
After confirming that the indicator lamp is out,  
follow the on-screen instructions to turn the camera  
off and disconnect the USB cable.  
Uninstalling FinePixViewer  
Only uninstall FinePixViewer before reinstalling  
the software or when it is no longer required.  
After quitting FinePixViewer 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  
Vista) or “Add/Remove Programs” (other versions  
of Windows) to uninstall FinePixViewer. Under  
Windows, one or more confirmation dialogs may be  
displayed; read the contents carefully before clicking  
OK.

phone company or Internet service provider when  
using services that require an Internet connection.

Glossary  
Digital zoom: Unlike optical zoom, digital zoom does not increase the amount of visible detail. Instead, details  
visible using optical zoom are simply enlarged, producing a slightly “grainy” image.  
Discharge: The capacity of rechargeable Ni-MH batteries will drop if they are repeatedly charged without first being  
fully discharged. Full capacity can be restored by repeatedly discharging the batteries using the  
option in the camera setup menu and recharging them using a battery charger (sold separately).  
l
DISCHARGE  
DPOF (Digital Print Order Format): A standard that allows pictures to be printed from “print orders”  
stored in internal memory or on a memory card. The information in the order includes the pictures to  
be printed and the number of copies of each picture.  
EV (Exposure Value): The exposure value is determined by the sensitivity of the image sensor and the amount  
of light that enters the camera while the image sensor is exposed. Each time the amount of light doubles, EV  
increases by one; each time the amount of light is halved, EV decreases by one. The amount of light entering  
the camera can be controlled by adjusting aperture and shutter speed.  
Exif Print: A standard that allows information stored with pictures to be used for optimal color reproduction  
during printing.  
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group): A compressed file format for color images. The higher the compression  
rate, the greater the loss of information and more noticeable drop in quality when the picture is displayed.  
Motion JPEG: An AVI (Audio Video Interleave) format that stores images and sound in a single file, with the images  
recorded in JPEG format. Motion JPEG files can be played in QuickTime 3.0 or later.  
Smear: A phenomenon specific to CCDs which causes white streaks to appear when very bright light sources,  
such as the sun or reflected sunlight, appear in the frame.  
WAV (Waveform Audio Format): A standard Windows audio file format. WAV files have the extension “*.WAV” and  
may be compressed or uncompressed. The camera uses uncompressed WAV. WAV files can be played using  
Windows Media Player or QuickTime 3.0 or later.  
White balance: The human brain automatically adapts to changes in the color of light, with the result that objects  
that appear white under one light source still appear white when the color of the light source changes. Digital  
cameras can mimic this adjustment by processing images according to the color of the light source. This  
process is known as “white balance.”  
88  
Internal Memory/Memory Card Capacity  
The following table shows the recording time or number of pictures available at different image  
qualities. All figures are approximate; file size varies with the scene recorded, producing wide  
variations in the number of files that can be stored. The number of exposures or length remaining  
may not diminish at an even rate.

Notices  
• Specifications subject to change without notice. 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  
electricity, or line noise).  
• Due to the type of lens used, some distortion may occur at the periphery of images. This is normal.

Caring for the Camera  
To ensure continued enjoyment of the product, observe the following precautions.  
Sttooraagee anndd Use  
Conddeennssaattiioonn  
If the camera will not be used for an extended  
period, remove the batteries 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  
temperatures, such as in a closed vehicle on a  
sunny day  
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  
before turning it on again. If condensation forms  
on the memory card, remove the card and wait  
for the condensation to dissipate.  
Cleaning  
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  
paper 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.  
• extremely cold  
• subject to strong vibration  
• exposed to strong magnetic fields, such as  
near a broadcasting antenna, power line, radar  
emitter, motor, transformer, or magnet  
• in contact with volatile chemicals such as  
pesticides  
• next to rubber or vinyl products  
Watteerr 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.
