About the Battery  
This camera uses the rechargeable battery DB-100, a dedicated  
lithium-ion battery supplied with the camera. The rechargeable  
battery needs to be charged before use. The battery is not charged at  
the time of purchase.  
Number of shots you can take ----------------------------------------------------  
Approximate number of shots you can take on a single charge: Approx. 310  
* When [LCD Auto Dim] (G P.94) is set to [On].  
• Based on CIPA standard. (Temperature: 23 degrees Celsius, picture display on,  
30 seconds between shots, changing the zoom setting from telephoto to wide-  
angle or wide-angle to telephoto for each shot, 50% flash usage, turning the  
power off after each 10 shots)  
• You can take approximately 290 shots when [LCD Auto Dim] is set to [Off].  
• Set the camera to synchro-monitor mode to increase the number of shots you  
can take. (G P.38)  
• The number of shots is for reference only. If the camera is used for long periods  
of time for setting and playback, the shooting time (the number of shots)  
will decrease. If you intend to use the camera for a long period of time, we  
recommend carrying a spare battery.  
Caution---------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
• The battery may become very hot immediately after operation. Turn the camera  
off and leave it to cool down sufficiently before removing the battery.  
• Please remove the battery if you are not going to use the camera for a long  
period of time.  
• When using a lithium-ion battery, use only the specified rechargeable lithium-  
ion battery (DB-100). Do not use any other battery.  
19  
About the SD Memory Card (available in stores)  
You can store images you have taken either in the camera’s internal  
memory or on an SD memory card (available in stores). The internal  
memory capacity is approximately 88 MB.  
About Formatting -------------------------------------------------------------------  
Before using a memory card for the first time or after using a memory card in  
other devices, be sure to format it with this camera. (G P.93)  
Where images are recorded -------------------------------------------------------  
When no SD memory card is loaded, the camera records images to the internal  
memory; when an SD memory card is loaded, it records images to the SD  
memory card.  
Where images are played back from --------------------------------------------  
When no SD memory card is loaded, the camera plays back from the internal  
memory. When an SD memory card is loaded, it plays back from the SD memory  
card.  
Caution---------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
• If an SD memory card is loaded, the camera does not record to the internal  
memory, even if the card is full.  
• Take care not to get the contacts of the card dirty.  
Write-protecting your images ----------------------------------------------------  
Move the write-protection switch on the SD memory card  
to LOCK to prevent your still images from being accidentally  
erased or the card from being formatted.  
Note that you cannot shoot images on a locked card because  
no data can be recorded to the card. Unlock the card before  
shooting.  
Note-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
You can copy images recorded in the internal memory to the SD memory card.

the subject are rendered in white. An image with a loss of image tone cannot be  
edited later. It is recommended that you shoot another image by changing the  
composition or by setting the exposure level lower (–). (G P. 7 6 )

About the Electronic Level  
When [Level Setting] is turned on in the setup menu or by pressing  
and holding the DISP. button, the camera uses a level indicator  
and level sound to let you know whether the image is level during  
shooting. The level indicator is displayed during normal symbol display  
and histogram display.  
This is useful for keeping the image level when taking pictures of  
scenery or buildings. This is also very useful for taking pictures with the  
horizon visible.

indicator is not displayed.  
When the camera is held vertically:  
When shooting with the camera positioned vertically, the level function  
can be used to determine whether the image is vertically level (the level  
indicator appears in a different place).  
Caution---------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
• During grid guide display, no display, or when the picture display is turned off  
(G P.38), the level sound is emitted, but the level indicator is not displayed.  
When [Level Setting] is set to [Display+Sound], only the level sound is emitted.  
• The level function is not available if the camera is held upside down, when  
recording movies, and during interval shooting.  
• The level function becomes less accurate when the camera is moving or when  
shooting in an environment subject to moving, such as on a amusement ride.  
• No level sound is emitted when [Level Setting] is set to [Display+Sound] or  
[Sound] and [Volume Settings] is set to [ꢀꢀꢀ] (Mute). (G P.94)  
• Use this function as a reference to see if images are level when shooting  
images. The accuracy of the level when using the camera as a level cannot be  
guaranteed.  
41  
About the Histogram Display  
When Histogram is on, a histogram  
appears in the lower right corner on the  
picture display. A histogram is a graph  
indicating the number of pixels on the  
vertical axis and the brightness on the  
horizontal axis (from left to right, shadows  
(dark areas), midtones, and highlights  
(bright areas)).  
By using the histogram, you can determine the brightness of an image  
without being affected by the brightness around the picture display.  
This also helps you correct for areas that are overly bright or dark.  
If the histogram has only peaks on the  
right side, this picture is overexposed  
with too many pixels only for highlight  
sections.  
If the histogram has only peaks on the left  
side without anything else, this picture  
is underexposed with too many pixels  
only for shadow sections. Refer to this  
histogram when correcting the exposure.  
Note-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
• The histogram displayed on the picture display is for reference only.  
• After taking a picture, you can correct its brightness and contrast by making  
adjustments to the histogram. (G P. 8 6 )  
• Depending on the shooting conditions (use of the flash, dark surrounding light,  
etc.), the exposure level indicated in the histogram may not correspond to the  
brightness of the shot image.  
• Exposure compensation has its limitation. It does not necessarily achieve the  
best possible result.  
• A histogram with peaks in the center may not necessarily provide the best result  
to suit your particular requirements. For example, an adjustment is required if  
you want to underexpose or overexpose the image.  
• For information on how to correct the exposure compensation, see P.76.

Dynamic Range Double Shot Mode (Q )  
The "dynamic range" of a digital camera refers to  
the range of brightness that can be processed by  
the camera.  
When you set the mode dial to Q and shoot, the  
scene is reproduced with a smooth transition from  
the bright areas to the dark areas, allowing you to capture a more  
natural-looking image.  
Note-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
With dynamic range double shot, two consecutive pictures are taken with  
different exposures and then the areas with the appropriate exposure are  
combined together. This mode uses a longer shooting time than other modes,  
so be careful of camera shake when taking pictures. The J symbol is always  
displayed.

• [Multi] metering is recommended. (G P. 6 8 )  
• When shooting a fast-moving subject, the subject may be distorted in the  
recorded image.  
• Flicker from fluorescent lights may appear as horizontal bands. Fluorescent  
lighting may also affect colors and brightness.

Exposure Compensation  
Use exposure compensation to vary exposure from the value selected  
by the camera. Choose from values between –2 and +2; negative  
values produce darker pictures, positive values brighter pictures.  
Exposure compensation may be required in the following situations:  
For backlighting  
When the background is particularly bright, the subject will appear  
dark (underexposed). In this case, set the exposure level higher (+).  
When your subject is whitish  
The entire picture will turn out dark (underexposed). Set the exposure  
level higher (+).  
When your subject is darkish  
The entire picture will turn out bright (overexposed). Set the exposure  
level lower (–). The same happens when you take a photo of a subject  
in a spotlight.

ISO Setting  
ISO sensitivity indicates how sensitive film is to light. A greater value  
means higher sensitivity. High sensitivity is suitable for shooting  
an object in a dark place or a fast-moving object while minimizing  
blurring. When ISO setting is set to [Auto], the camera automatically  
changes the sensitivity according to the distance, brightness, zoom,  
macro settings, and picture quality/size. Choose settings other than  
[Auto] to fix ISO sensitivity at the selected value.

• If the flash is not used when ISO is set to [Auto], the camera will select an ISO  
sensitivity between 80 and the value selected for [Maximum ISO for ISO Auto].  
If the flash is set to [Auto], the flash will fire if optimal exposure can not be  
achieved at the sensitivity selected for [Maximum ISO for ISO Auto].  
• Images shot with a higher sensitivity may appear grainy.  
• When [Auto] is selected for ISO sensitivity, the ISO value displayed when the  
shutter release button is pressed halfway may in some instances (for example,  
when the flash is used) differ from the value selected when the shutter is

Cautions on Use  
Cautions on Use  
• This product was manufactured for use in the country in which it was  
purchased. The warranty is only valid in the country in which the camera was  
purchased.  
• Should the product fail or malfunction while you are abroad, the  
manufacturer assumes no responsibility for servicing the product locally or  
bearing the expenditure incurred therefore.  
• Be sure not to drop or apply any sudden force to the camera.  
• While you are carrying the camera, be careful not to hit it against other  
objects. Take special care to not hit the lens and picture display.  
• Firing the flash consecutively may heat the firing unit. Do not fire it  
consecutively more than necessary.  
• Do not touch the flash and keep foreign objects away from the firing unit.  
Doing so can cause burns and fires.  
• Do not fire the flash near eyes. It could cause visual impairment (particularly  
for infants).  
• Do not fire the flash near the driver of a vehicle to avoid causing accidents.  
• The battery may become hot after extended use. Touching the battery  
immediately after use could result in burns to your fingers.  
• If the picture display or panel is exposed to sunlight, they may become  
washed out and images may become hard to view.  
• The picture display and panel may contain some pixels that do not remain  
lit up continually in part or at all. Also, the brightness may become uneven  
because of the characteristics of LCDs. These are not failures.  
• Do not forcefully press the surface of the picture display.  
• In an environment where the temperature changes suddenly, condensation  
may occur in the camera, resulting in troubles such as fogging of the glass  
surface or malfunctions of the camera. If this occurs, place the camera in a  
bag to slow the temperature change as much as possible. Take it out of the  
bag after the temperature difference from the atmosphere has decreased  
to a fairly small amount. If condensation occurs, remove the battery and  
memory card, and wait until the moisture has dried before using the camera.  
• To avoid damaging the connectors, do not put any objects into the camera’s  
microphone or speaker holes.  
10  
• Do not get the camera wet. Do not operate the camera with wet hands. This  
can result in malfunction or an electrical shock.  
• Before taking any important pictures (such as at weddings, on trips abroad,  
etc.), test the camera to check operation and ensure proper functioning. We  
recommend that you keep this manual and spare battery on hand.  
129  
Conditions in which condensation may easily occur: -----------------------  
When the camera is moved to an environment where the temperature differs greatly.  
• In humid places.  
• In a room immediately after being heated, or when the camera is exposed  
directly to cooled air from an air-conditioner or another similar appliance.  
Care and Storage  
Care  
Please note that if fingerprints, dirt, etc. get onto the lens, picture quality will suffer.  
• When dust or dirt does get on the lens, do not touch it directly with your  
fingers, and either use a blower (available in stores) to blow it off, or a soft  
cloth to gently dust it off.  
• After use at the beach or around chemicals, wipe it off particularly carefully.  
• In the unlikely event that your camera fails to work properly, please consult  
your Ricoh Repair Center.  
• There are high voltage circuits in this camera. As this is dangerous, do not  
dismantle this camera under any circumstances.

your camera. This may cause a change in quality, paint to peel, etc.  
• As the surface of the picture display is easily scratched, do not rub hard  
objects against it.  
• Clean the surface of the picture display by wiping gently with a soft cloth  
containing a small amount of display cleaner (that does not contain organic  
solvents) sold in stores.  
Use and Storage  
• Please avoid using or storing your camera in the following kinds of places, as  
this may damage the camera.  
• In high heat and humidity, or where there is severe change in temperature  
or humidity.
