This is useful when you worry about camera shake even if  
attaching the camera on a tripod.  
A picture is taken after the self-timer lamp changes  
from lit to blinking (only blinks with the 2-second self-  
timer).  
MEMO  
• To stop the self-timer, once it has started running, press  
DISP/BACK.  
• Any of the following cancels the self-timer setting:  
- Completing the shooting  
- Changing the Shooting mode setting  
- Setting the camera to Playback mode  
- Turning the camera off  
• Take care not to stand in front of the lens when pressing  
the shutter button as this can prevent the correct focus  
or brightness (exposure) from being achieved.  
A countdown appears on the  
LCD monitor indicating the  
time remaining until the  
picture is taken.

MEMO  
The following steps differ depending on the  
PC’s operating system (Windows 2000/XP/  
Vista case)  
When your PC recognizes the camera automatically,  
FinePixViewer S automatically starts up and the Load  
photos window appears. Follow the instructions provided  
on screen to save the images. To proceed without saving  
the images, click the [Menu] button.  
• You can only see images saved on a PC. Save images  
on a PC.

CAUTION  
Proceed to “Using FinePixViewer” (p.100).  
When there are many images stored on a Memory Card,  
it takes a while to display on the screen of your PC. Also,  
it may take a while to import images or you may be unable  
to save images. In this case, use an Image Memory Card  
Reader.  
CAUTION (Mac OS X)  
If FinePixViewer does not start up automatically, the  
software may not be installed correctly. Set your PC again  
after disconnecting the camera and restart.  
CAUTION (Mac OS X)  
Note on disconnecting the camera  
• Close all files in the camera, and make sure the camera  
is not exchanging data.  
• The camera and PC may be exchanging data even  
when [Copying] disappears from your PC screen,  
especially in the case of copying large data amounts.  
Do not disconnect the USB cable (included),  
immediately after this message has disappeared.  
Always check that the indicator lamp is off first before  
disconnecting.

Using Your Camera Correctly  
Read this information and the “Safety Notes” (“Notes  
and Cautions”), to make sure you use your camera  
correctly.  
Z When the Camera is Not Used or is stored Periods  
of Time  
If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period of  
time, remove the battery and the Memory Card.  
Z Places to Avoid  
Do not store or use the camera in the following types of  
locations:  
• In the rain or in very humid, dirty, or dusty places  
• In direct sunlight or in places subject to extreme  
temperature rises, such as in a closed car in summer  
• Extremely cold places  
• Places with strong vibration  
• Places with smoke or steam  
• Places subject to strong electric magnetic fields (such  
as near broadcasting tower, power lines, radar, motors,  
transformers, magnets, etc.)  
Z Cleaning Your Camera  
• Use a blower brush to remove any dust on the lens or  
LCD monitor, and then gently wipe the camera with a  
soft, dry cloth. If any soil remains, apply a small amount  
of lens cleaning liquid to a piece of FUJIFILM lens  
cleaning paper and wipe gently.  
• Do not scratch hard objects against the lens or LCD  
monitor.  
• Clean the body of the camera with a soft, dry cloth. Do  
not use volatile substances or cleaning products these  
items can cause damage.  
• In contact with chemicals such as pesticides  
• Next to rubber or vinyl products  
Z Using the Camera When Traveling  
When traveling overseas, do not place your camera in the  
check-in baggage. Baggage can be subjected to violent  
shocks, and the camera may be damaged inside or  
outside.  
Z Damaged by Water or Sand  
FinePix J10 / FinePix J12 can be damaged on the inside  
and outside by water and sand. When you are at the  
beach or close to water, make sure that the camera is not  
damaged by water or sand. Take care not to place the  
camera on a wet surface.  
Z Damaged by Condensation  
If the camera is carried from a cold location into a warm  
place, water droplets (condensation) may form on the  
inside of the camera or on the lens. When this occurs, turn  
the camera off and wait an hour before using the camera.  
Condensation may also form on the Memory Card. In this  
event, remove the Memory Card and wait a short time.  
105  
Notes on the xD-Picture Card™, the SD Memory Card and the Internal Memory  
Z Handling Memory Card  
Z Internal Memory  
• When inserting the Memory Card into the camera, hold  
the Memory Card straight as you push it in.  
• Never remove the Memory Card or turn the camera off  
during data recording or erasing (Memory Card  
formatting) as this could be damaged to the Memory  
Card.  
• Images held in the camera’s internal memory may be  
corrupted or erased due to problems such as camera  
faults. Save your important data to another media (i.e.,  
DVD-R, CD-R, CD-RW, hard disk, etc.).  
• Data stored in the camera’s internal memory cannot be  
guaranteed in the event that the camera is submitted for  
repairs.  
• The use of xD-Picture Cards is recommended with  
FinePix J10 / FinePix J12.  
• When the camera is repaired, any data stored in the  
camera’s internal memory is subject to checking by the  
repairer.  
The recording quality cannot be guaranteed when xD-  
Picture Cards other than those manufactured by  
FUJIFILM are used.  
• The Memory Card may feel warm when it is removed  
from the camera after taking pictures. This is normal.  
• Do not put labels on the Memory Card. Peeling labels  
can cause the camera not to work properly.  
Z Using Memory Card or Internal Memory with a PC  
• When taking pictures using a Memory Card or internal  
memory that has been used on a PC, reformat the  
Memory Card using your camera.  
• When formatting, a directory (folder) is created. Image  
data is then recorded in this directory.  
• Do not change or delete the directory (folder) or file  
names on the Memory Card or internal memory  
because this will make it impossible to use the Memory  
Card or internal memory in your camera.  
• Always use the camera to erase image data.  
• To edit image data, copy or transfer the image data to  
the PC and edit the copied or transferred data.  
MEMO Type M and H of xD-Picture Card  
• Type M  
There are two types of Memory Card: standard type and  
Type M (containing “M” in the model number, such as  
DPC-M2GB).  
FinePix J10 / FinePix J12 is compatible with Type M.  
• Type H  
Type H and M share the same compatibility.  
• Usable USB drive  
Type H cannot be used with xD-Picture Card USB  
drive DPC-UD1, while Type M can.

If you shoot using the xD-Picture Cards with model numbers containing “M” such as DPC-M2GB, movie recording time may be  
reduced if you repeatedly record and erase (frame erase) image files. In such a case, erase all frames or format the xD-Picture Card  
before use. Back up important frames (files) onto your PC or another media.  
These specifications are subject to change without notice. FUJIFILM shall not be held liable for damages resulting from  
errors in this Owner’s Manual.  
The LCD monitor on your digital camera is manufactured using advanced high-precision technology. Even so, small bright  
points and anomalous colors (particularly around text) may appear on the monitor. These are normal display characteristics  
and do not indicate a fault with the monitor. This phenomenon will not appear on the recorded image.  
The operation error may be caused in a digital camera by the strong radio interference (i. e. electric fields, static electricity,  
line noise, etc.).

Due to the nature of the lens, the edges of images may appear distorted. This is normal.

Explanation of Terms  
EV  
A number denotes Exposure Value. The EV is determined by the brightness of the subject and sensitivity (speed) of the film  
or CCD. The number is larger for bright subjects and smaller for dark subjects. As the brightness of the subject changes, a  
digital camera maintains the amount of light hitting the CCD at a constant level by adjusting the aperture and shutter speed.  
When the amount of light striking the CCD doubles, the EV increases by 1. Likewise, when the light is halved, the EV decreases  
by 1.  
Frame rate (fps)  
The frame rate refers to the number of images (frames) that are photographed or played back per second. For example, when  
10 frames are continuously photographed in a 1-second interval, the frame rate is expressed as 10 fps.  
For reference, TV images are displayed at 30 fps (NTSC).  
JPEG  
Joint Photographic Experts Group  
A file format used for compressing and saving color images. The higher the compression rate, the greater the loss of quality in  
the decompressed (restored) image.  
Motion JPEG  
A type of AVI (Audio Video Interleave) file format that handles images and sound as a single file. Images in the file are recorded  
in JPEG format. Motion JPEG can be played back by QuickTime 3.0 or later.  
Smear  
A phenomenon specific to CCDs whereby white streaks appear on the image when there is a very strong light source, such as  
the sun or reflected sunlight, in the photography screen.  
White Balance  
Whatever the kind of the light, the human eye adapts to it so that a white object still looks white. On the other hand, devices  
such as digital cameras see a white subject as white by first adjusting the color balance to suit the color of the ambient light  
around the subject. This adjustment is called matching the white balance.  
Exif Print Format is a newly revised digital camera file format that contains a variety of shooting information for optimal printing.

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.  
• Dispose of used battery promptly.  
• Do not drop the battery or otherwise subject it to  
strong impacts.  
• Do not expose the battery to water.  
• Always keep the battery terminals clean.  
• Do not store batteries in hot places. Also, if you use  
the battery for a long period, the camera body and  
the battery itself will become warm. This is normal.  
Use the AC power adapter if you are taking pictures  
or viewing images for a long period of time.  
Using the AA-size Ni-MH batteries correctly  
• Ni-MH batteries left unused in storage for long  
periods can become “deactivated”. Also, repeatedly  
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 problem 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.  
Be sure to read this notes before using  
Power Supply and Battery  
* Confirm your battery type before reading the  
following descriptions.

Battery Features  
Do not use the “Discharging  
rechargeable batteries” function when  
alkaline batteries being used.  
This icon indicates that personal  
injury or material damage can result  
if the information is ignored.  
• 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.  
• 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 produced 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.  
If you are using a heating pad, take care not to  
place the battery directly against the pad. The  
camera may not operate if you use a depleted  
battery in cold conditions.  
Charging the Battery  
• You can charge the battery using the battery  
charger (included).  
• The battery can be charged at ambient  
temperatures between 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 between +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 Battery does not  
need to be fully discharged or exhausted flat before  
being charged.  
• 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.  
Battery Life  
At normal temperatures, the battery 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.

than those provided with the camera.  
Circular icons with a diagonal bar tell you that the  
action indicated is prohibited (“Prohibited”).  
Filled circles with an exclamation mark tell you an  
action that must be performed (“Required”).  
Because Memory Cards are small, they can be  
swallowed by children. Be sure to store Memory  
Cards out of the reach of small children. If a child  
swallows a Memory Card, seek medical attention or  
call an emergency number.  
Due to the way the camera is constructed, 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  
overdischarge the batteries and may render them  
unusable even after recharging.  
WARNING  
If a problem arises, turn the camera off, remove  
the battery, disconnect and unplug the AC  
power adapter.
