LCD Panel  
The liquid crystal panel of the monitor screen uses high-precision technology that  
provides a pixel yield in excess of 99.99%. This means that some very small number  
of pixels may not light or may remain lit at all times. This is due to the characteristics  
of the liquid crystal panel, and does not indicate malfunction.  
Take test shots  
Before shooting your final image, shoot a test shot to ensure that the camera is  
recording correctly.

IMPORTANT!  
• A battery that has not been used for a long time, or ambient temperature extremes  
can cause charging to take longer than normal. If charging takes longer than about  
five hours, a timer will terminate it automatically, even if the battery is not fully  
charged. This is indicated by the back lamp flashing red. If the battery has not been  
used for a very long time, charging may be terminated automatically and the back  
lamp may start flashing red after only about 60 minutes. In either case, disconnect  
the USB cable from the camera and then reconnect it to resume charging.  
• Pressing [p] (Power) while the USB-AC adaptor is connected to the camera will  
turn on the camera with power being supplied by the battery. Because of this,

error message may appear on your computer. If this happens, disconnect and then  
reconnect the USB cable.  
• A battery that has not been used for a long time, certain types of computers, and  
connection conditions can cause charging to take more than approximately five  
hours, which will trigger a timer that terminates charging automatically, even if the  
battery is not fully charged. If this happens, disconnect and then reconnect the  
USB cable to restart charging. To complete charging faster, use of the included  
USB-AC adaptor is recommended.  
• If the battery has not been used for a very long time, charging may terminate  
automatically and the back lamp may start flashing red or go out after only about  
60 minutes. In either case, use of the USB-AC adaptor that comes with the camera  
is recommended.  
• If you turn on the camera while charging over a USB connection to a computer is in  
progress, the camera will establish a USB connection with the computer. Though  
charging normally should continue at this time, certain types of computers or  
connection environments may stop charging if supply power is low. This will be  
indicated by the camera’s back lamp lighting green.  
• Charging is not performed while the connected computer is in the hibernate mode.

Snapshot Shooting Precautions  
Operation  
• If unwanted light is shining onto the lens, shade the lens with your hand when  
shooting an image.  
Monitor Screen when Shooting Snapshots  
• Subject brightness conditions can cause monitor screen response to slow and can  
cause digital noise in the monitor screen image.  
• The image that appears on the monitor screen is for image composition. The actual  
image will be recorded in accordance with the currently selected recording mode  
(page 39).  
Quick Start Basics

Shooting Indoors under Fluorescent Lighting  
• Minute flickering of fluorescent lighting can affect the brightness or color of an  
image.  
Other Precautions  
• The slower the shutter speed, the greater the possibility that noticeable noise will  
be generated in an image. Because of this, the camera automatically performs a  
noise reduction at slow shutter speeds. The noise reduction process causes it to  
take longer to record images at lower shutter speeds. The shutter speeds for which  
noise reduction is performed depend on the camera setup and shooting conditions.  
• A noise reduction process is performed when ISO sensitivity is set to a high value.  
This can cause the camera to take relatively longer to be ready to shoot again after  
you press the shutter button. Do not perform any operation while the image  
recording operation is in progress.  
• Due to the characteristics of the imaging element used by the camera, very fast  
moving objects in an image may appear distorted.  
. Auto Focus Restrictions  
• Any of the following can make proper focus impossible.  
– Solid color wall or other very low contrast subject  
– Strongly back lit subject  
– Very shiny subject  
– Blinds or other subject with a repeating horizontal pattern  
– Multiple subjects at varying distances from the camera  
– Subject in a dark location  
– Camera movement while shooting  
– Fast-moving subject  
– Subjects outside the focus range of the camera  
• If you cannot focus properly, try using focus lock (page 67).

Minimizing the Effects of Camera Movement during Movie Recording  
You can configure the camera to minimize the effects of camera movement during  
Full HD and HD movie recording. Note, however, that this does not prevent image  
blur due to subject movement.  
High Speed Movie Recording Precautions  
• When shooting a high speed movie, shoot in a well-lit environment.  
• When recording a high speed movie, light source flicker can cause horizontal  
bands to appear in the image. This does not indicate malfunction of the camera.  
Recording Images

IMPORTANT!  
• Spending a long time using movie recording will cause the camera to become  
slightly warm to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction. The  
camera may automatically adjust its monitor screen brightness in order to reduce  
heat generation.  
• The camera also records audio along with Full HD and HD  
movies. Note the following points when shooting a movie.  
– Take care that the microphone is not blocked by your  
fingers, etc.  
– Good audio recording results are not possible when the  
camera is too far away from what you are trying to  
record.  
Microphone  
• Shooting movies for long periods in areas where  
temperature is relatively high can cause digital noise (dots of light) to appear in the  
movie image. A rise in the camera’s internal temperature also may force movie  
recording to stop automatically. If this happens, stop recording and allow the  
camera to cool down, which should cause normal operation to resume.  
• Using the camera’s built-in memory or certain types of memory cards can slow  
down processing speed. Whenever possible use an Ultra High-Speed Type  
memory card. Note, however, that not all operations can be guaranteed even if an  
Ultra High-Speed Type memory card is used. Certain movie quality settings can  
result in too much time being required to record data, which can result in breaks in  
the image and/or audio during playback. If this happens, the movie icon will turn  
yellow on the monitor screen.  
NOTE  
• Except for High Speed Movie, zoom operations are supported during movie  
recording (page 44). Zoom is disabled during high speed movie recording. If you  
b
want to use zoom, perform the zoom operation before you touch “ ” (Movie) to  
start recording.  
• SR Zoom (page 44) is disabled during movie recording.  
• The effects of camera movement in an image become more pronounced when you  
shoot close up or with a large zoom factor. Because of this, stabilizing the camera  
by placing it on a level surface, etc. is recommended.  
• During High Speed Movie recording, focus is fixed at the position where it was  
when recording started. To focus an image, half-press the shutter button for Auto  
b
Focus before you touch “ ” (Movie) to start recording.

With High Speed Best Selection, the camera automatically shoots a series of images,  
and selects the best one based on facial image blur, and facial expression (whether  
the subject is smiling or blinking).  
1. In the REC mode, touch “b” (BEST SHOT).  
2. Touch “HS Best Selection” scene.  
3. Press the shutter button to shoot.

NOTE  
• With this BEST SHOT scene, the LED light setting automatically becomes off.  
• Shooting with this BEST SHOT scene makes the shooting range narrower than  
normal.  
• If one or more of the faces are blurred in all of the images that are shot, they will be  
blurred in the final image as well.  
• The following conditions may make it impossible for the camera to determine if the  
subject is blinking or smiling. This may result in a final image in which the subject is  
blinking or not smiling.  
– Faces that are partially or completely darkened by shadows, etc.  
– Hair that is hiding or near the eyes  
– Eye glasses  
– Small faces  
– Faces that are not looking directly at the camera  
• Shooting a large group of people will cause processing of the image after shooting  
to take longer.  
Shooting a Panorama Image (Slide Panorama)  
With Slide Panorama, you move the camera to compose and record multiple images,  
which are then combined to a panorama. This feature lets you shoot a panorama  
which is dramatically greater than the physical capabilities of the lens.  
• The final panorama image can be one of the two sizes shown below.  
x
Slide Direction is Right or Left: Maximum 11520 1080 pixels  
x
Slide Direction is Up or Down: Maximum 1920 7296 pixels  
• Zoom operations are not supporting during Slide Panorama shooting. The zoom  
setting is fixed at full wide angle.  
• You can shoot a panorama image for approximately 360 degrees horizontally, or  
approximately 180 degrees vertically.

image internally when the slide cursor reached  
the other end of the movement range.  
• Image composing also will start automatically if  
you stop moving the camera during panorama  
Slide cursor  
shooting. After you stop moving the camera, the message “Busy... Please  
wait...” appears as the camera processes the image. Wait until this message  
disappears before using the camera. Image shooting is disabled while the  
message is displayed.

NOTE  
• The following conditions are not compatible with Slide Panorama shooting.  
– Subject whose brightness is very different from that of its surroundings due to  
artificial light, sunlight, etc.  
– Rivers, waves, waterfalls, or other subject with constantly changing patterns  
– Sky, beach, or other subject with continuous patterns  
– Camera too close to the main subject  
– Moving subject

• Slide Panorama may stop part way through in the following cases.  
– Subject or camera movement  
– Camera movement that is too fast or too slow  
• Shooting a Slide Panorama image after half-pressing the shutter button to perform  
Auto Focus may not produce the desired results if there are considerable  
differences in the brightness, color, and/or focus of the individual images. If this  
happens, try changing the focus position by focusing on a different subject, etc.  
• Since a Slide Panorama image is created by joining multiple images together, there  
may be some roughness at the point where two images are joined.  
• Shooting under a flickering light source (such as fluorescent lighting) may result in  
uneven brightness and/or coloring in the final Slide Panorama image.  
• The exposure and white balance when shooting Slide Panorama images are fixed  
at the levels measured when you half-press the shutter button at the beginning of  
the operation.  
• With this BEST SHOT scene, the LED light setting automatically becomes off.

. Pixels and image size  
A digital camera image is a collection of small  
dots called “pixels”. The more pixels there are  
in an image, the more detail there will be.  
However, you generally can do with fewer  
pixels when printing an image (L size)  
through a print service, attaching an image to  
e-mail, when viewing the image on a  
computer, etc.  
Pixel  
The size of an image indicates how many  
x
pixels it contains, and is expressed as horizontal pixels vertical pixels.  
Example:  
Image size  
12M  
pixels  
x
4000 3000 (Approximately 12 million pixels)  
x
2560 1920 (Approximately 5 million pixels)

• Note that larger images have more pixels, so they take up more memory space.  
• For information about image size and number of images that can be stored, see  
page 131.  
• For information about movie image size, see page 47.

value is best for dark-color subjects and  
for shooting outdoors on a clear day.  
Increases the EV value. A higher EV  
value is best for light-colored subjects  
and backlit subjects.  
2. Touch “OK”.  
This applies the exposure compensation value. The exposure compensation  
value you set remains in effect until you change it or turn off the camera (which  
causes it to revert to “0.0”).

Viewing and Storing Images on a Computer  
You can connect the camera to your computer in order to view and store images  
(snapshot and movie files).  
Never use your computer to modify, delete, move, or rename any image files  
that are in the camera’s built-in memory or on its memory card.  
Doing so can cause problems with the camera’s image management data, which  
will make it impossible to play back images on the camera and can drastically alter  
remaining memory capacity. Whenever you want to modify, delete, move, or  
rename an image, do so only on images that are stored on your computer.  
IMPORTANT!  
• Never unplug the USB cable, or operate the camera while viewing or storing  
images. Doing so can cause data to become corrupted.  
NOTE  
• You also can use your computer’s card slot (if it has one) or a commercially  
available card reader to access image files directly from the camera’s memory  
card. For details, see the user documentation that comes with your computer.  
. To connect the camera to your computer and save files  
1. Turn off the camera and then  
[USB] port  
use the micro USB cable that  
USB  
comes with the camera to  
connect it to your computer.  
• For details about connecting to  
the camera and precautions  
when connecting, see page 23.  
Micro USB cable

Connecting the Camera to Your Computer and Saving Files  
Never use your computer to modify, delete, move, or rename any image files  
that are in the camera’s built-in memory or on its memory card.  
Doing so can cause problems with the camera’s image management data, which  
will make it impossible to play back images on the camera and can drastically alter  
remaining memory capacity. Whenever you want to modify, delete, move, or  
rename an image, do so only on images that are stored on your computer.  
IMPORTANT!  
• Never unplug the USB cable, or operate the camera while viewing or storing  
images. Doing so can cause data to become corrupted.

Files and Folders  
The camera creates a file each time you shoot a snapshot, record a movie, or  
perform any other operation that stores data. Files are grouped by storing them in  
folders. Each file and folder has its own unique name.  
• For details about how folders are organized in memory, see “Memory Folder  
Structure” (page 102).  
Name and Maximum Number Allowed  
Example  
File  
Each folder can contain up to 9999 files named 26th file name:  
CIMG0001 through CIMG9999. The extension  
CIMG0026.JPG  
on the file name depends on the file type.  
Extension  
Serial number (4 digits)  
Folders  
Folders are named from 100CASIO to  
100th folder name:  
999CASIO.  
100CASIO  
There can be up to 900 folders in memory.  
Serial number (3 digits)  
• You can view folder and file names on your computer. For details about how file  
names are displayed on the camera’s monitor screen, see page 10.  
• The total number of folders and files allowed depends on the image size and  
quality, and capacity of the memory card being used for storage.

This camera may not be able to display an image, even if it is DCF-compliant. When  
displaying an image recorded on another camera, it may take a long time for the  
image to appear on this camera’s monitor screen.  
. Built-in Memory and Memory Card Data Handling Precautions  
• Whenever copying memory contents to your computer, you should copy the DCIM  
folder and all of its contents. A good way to keep track of multiple DCIM folders it to  
change their names to dates or something similar after you copy them to your  
computer. If you later decided to return a DCIM folder to the camera, however, be  
sure to change its name back to DCIM. The camera is designed to recognize only a  
root file with the name DCIM. Note the camera also will not be able to recognize the  
folders inside the DCIM folder unless they have the names they originally had  
when you copied them from the camera to your computer.  
• Folders and files must be stored in accordance with the “Memory Folder Structure”  
shown on page 102 in order for the camera to be able to recognize them correctly.

Precautions During Use  
. Data Error Precautions  
Your digital camera is manufactured using precision digital components. Any of the  
following creates the risk of corruption of data in camera memory.  
– Removing the battery or memory card while the camera is performing some  
operation  
– Removing the battery or memory card while the back lamp is flashing green after  
turning off the camera  
– Disconnecting the USB cable while communication is in progress  
– Shooting with a battery that quickly goes low right after it is charged  
• Shooting with a battery that quickly goes low right after it is charged can also  
cause camera malfunction. Replace the battery with a new one immediately.  
– Other abnormal operations  
Any of the above conditions can cause an error message to appear on the monitor  
screen (page 130). Perform the action indicated by the message that appears.  
. Operating Environment  
• Operating Temperature Requirements: 0 to 40°C (32 to 104°F)  
• Operating Humidity: 10 to 85% (non condensation)  
• Do not place the camera in any of the following locations.  
– In an area exposed to direct sunlight, or large amounts of moisture, dust, or sand  
– Near heating or cooling devices, or in other areas subjected to extreme changes  
in temperature or humidity  
– Inside of a motor vehicle on a hot day, or in an area subjected to strong vibration  
. Condensation  
Sudden and extreme temperature changes, such as when the camera is moved from  
the outdoors on a cold winter day into a warm room, can cause water droplets called  
“condensation” to form on the interior and the exterior of the camera, which creates  
the risk of malfunction. To prevent condensation from forming seal the camera in a  
plastic bag before changing locations. Then leave the bag sealed to allow the air  
inside to naturally change to the same temperature as the air in the new location.  
After that, remove the camera from the bag and open the battery cover for a few  
hours.

. Lens  
• Never apply too much force when cleaning the surface of the lens. Doing so can  
scratch the lens surface and cause malfunction.  
• You may sometimes notice some distortion in certain types of images, such as a  
slight bend in lines that should be straight. This is due to the characteristics of  
lenses, and does not indicate malfunction of the camera.  
. Caring for your camera  
• Never touch the lens with your fingers. Finger smudges, dirt, and other foreign  
matter on the lens can interfere with proper operation of the camera. Use a blower  
or other means to keep the lens and flash window free of dirt and dust, and wipe  
gently with a soft, dry cloth.  
• To clean the camera, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.

memory card. The original data remains on the card. Note that responsibility for the  
data on a memory card lies with you. The following procedures are recommended  
whenever you discard a memory card or the camera, or if you transfer ownership to  
another party.  
• When discarding a memory card, either physically destroy the memory card or use  
commercially available data delete software to completely delete the data on the  
memory card.  
• When transferring ownership of a memory card to another party, use commercially  
available data deletion software to completely delete the data on it.  
• Use the format function (page 109) to completely delete the data in built-in memory

Power Supply  
Charging  
. If the camera’s back lamp starts flashing red...  
If the back lamp starts flashing red during charging, it means that further charging is  
not possible for one of the reasons below. Perform the actions described below to  
correct the problem and then try charging again.  
Ambient temperature or the temperature of the battery is abnormally high  
or low  
Unplug the USB cable from the camera and wait for a while until the camera is within  
the temperature range of 15°C to 35°C (59°F to 95°F), and then try charging again.  
Safety timer activated  
A battery that has not been used for a long time, certain types of computers, and  
connection conditions can cause charging to take longer than normal. If charging  
takes longer than about five hours, a safety timer will terminate it automatically, even  
if the battery is not fully charged. If the battery has not been used for a very long time,  
charging may terminate automatically after only about 60 minutes.  
1) Using a battery that has not been used for a long time.  
Disconnect and then reconnect the USB cable to resume charging.  
2) Insufficient power supply when connected to computer  
The camera can be charged only via a USB 2.0 standard USB port. Connect  
directly to a USB port what supplies a current of 500mA.  
For details about the power supply capacity of a computer’s USB port, contact the  
manufacturer of the computer. Though disconnecting and then reconnecting the USB  
cable will resume charging, you may need to do so repeatedly if the power supply  
capacity of the computer is low.  
If problems persist after you perform the above steps or if the battery fails to  
charge after 5 hours, it could mean that the battery is faulty. Contact your nearest  
CASIO authorized service center.

Battery Precautions  
. Precautions during Use  
• Operation provided by a battery under cold conditions is always less than operation  
under normal temperatures. This is due to the characteristics of the battery, not the  
camera.  
• Charge the battery in an area where the temperature is within the range of 15°C to  
35°C (59°F to 95°F). Outside this temperature range charging can take longer than  
normal or even fail.  
• Do not tear or remove the battery outer label.  
• If a battery provides only very limited operation following a full charge, it probably  
means the battery has reached the end of its service life. Replace the battery with a  
new one.  
. Storage Precautions  
• Storing the battery for a long time while it is charged can cause deterioration of  
battery characteristics. If you do not plan to use a battery for some time, fully use  
up its charge before storing it.  
• Always remove the battery from the camera when you are not using it. A battery left  
in the camera can discharge and go dead, which will require some time to charge  
when you need to use the camera.  
• Store batteries in a cool, dry place (20°C (68°F) or lower).  
• To prevent over discharging of an unused battery, fully charge it, and then load it in  
the camera and fully use up the charge about once every six months.  
Using the Camera in another Country  
. Precautions during Use  
• The bundled USB-AC adaptor is designed for operation with any power supply in  
the range of 100V to 240V AC, 50/60Hz. Note, however, that the shape of the  
power plug depends on each country or geographic area. Before taking the camera  
and USB-AC adaptor along on a trip, check with travel agent about the power  
supply requirements in your destination(s).  
• Do not connect the USB-AC adaptor to a power supply through a voltage converter  
or similar device. Doing so can lead to malfunction.  
. Extra Batteries  
• Taking along extra fully charged batteries (NP-150) is recommended while on a trip  
in order to avoid not being able to shoot images due to the battery going dead.

Using a Memory Card  
See page 27 for information about supported memory cards and how to load a  
memory card.  
. Using a Memory Card  
• If a memory card starts to behave abnormally during image playback, you can  
restore normal operation by reformatting it (page 109). However, it is  
recommended that you always take along multiple memory cards whenever using  
the camera far away from the home or office.  
• As you record data to and delete data from a memory card a number of times, it  
loses its ability to retain data. Because of this, periodic re-formatting of a memory  
card is recommended.  
• Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause data to  
become corrupted or even lost. Make sure that you always back up important data  
on other media (CD-R, CD-RW, hard disk, etc.).  
. Memory Card Handling Precautions  
Certain types of memory cards can slow down processing speed. Whenever possible  
use an Ultra High-Speed Type memory card. Note, however, that not all operations  
can be guaranteed even if an Ultra High-Speed Type memory card is used. Certain  
movie quality settings can result in too much time being required to record data,  
which can result in breaks in the image and/or audio during playback. If this happens,  
the movie icon will turn yellow on the monitor screen.
