Connecting to a Power Source

There are two ways in which to provide the camera with power. You can use batteries or

alternatively, you can use an AC(100 ~ 250V) Adapter (DC 5V 2.0A).

We recommend using batteries for a digital camera (Within a year from the date of

manufacture). The batteries are listed below.

Non rechargeable batteries : AA type

CR-V3 type

: AA type

CR-V3 type

- Alkaline, Ni-Mn, Ni-Zn, Lithium

- Lithium

Rechargeable batteries

- Ni-MH, Ni-Cd (over 1000mAh)

INFORMATION

Important information about battery usage

It is easy to buy alkaline batteries. However, the duration for using batteries varies in

accordance with the battery manufacturer or the photographic conditions.

When the camera is not used, turn off the camera power.

Do not recharge the non rechargeable batteries. It may cause an explosion.

Please remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for long periods. Batteries can

lose power over time and are prone to leaking if kept inside the camera.

We recommend high capacity ALKALINE batteries as manganese batteries cannot

deliver sufficient power.

Low temperatures (below 0 ) can affect the performance of the batteries and you may

experience reduced battery life.

Batteries will usually recover at normal temperatures.

Do not use old and new batteries at the same time.

During extended use of the camera, the camera body may become warm.

This is perfectly normal.

Using the AC power adapter (5V 2.0A)

If you have access to a mains supply, using an AC

Adapter (5V 2.0A) allows the camera to be used for

long periods of time.

Plug the adapter into the connection point (DC IN 5V)

on the camera.

Remove the batteries from the camera when using an

AC adapter.

Connecting to a Power Source

DANGER

Always turn off the power before taking the AC adapter out of the mains supply.

As with all mains powered devices, safety is important. Ensure that neither the camera

nor adapter comes into contact with water or metallic materials.

Please ensure that you use an AC adapter (5V 2.0A) with the correct specification for the

camera. Failure to do so may affect your warranty.

: If the camera does not turn on after you have inserted batteries,

please check whether the batteries are inserted with the correct

polarity(+/-).

Instructions on how to use the memory card

Maintenance of the memory card

Be sure to format the memory card (see p. 81) if you are using a newly purchased memory

for the first time, if it contains data that the camera cannot recognize, or if it contains images

captured with a different camera.

Turn off the camera power whenever the memory card is being inserted or removed.

Repeated use of the memory card will eventually reduce the memory card’s performance.

Should this be the case, you will need to purchase a new memory card.

Wear and tear on the memory card is not covered by the Samsung warranty.

The memory card is an electronic precision device.

Do not bend, drop or subject the memory card to any heavy impact.

Do not allow the memory card to become dirty or to come into contact with any liquid.

Should this happen, clean the memory card with a soft cloth.

Please keep the memory card in its case when not in use.

During and after periods of extended use, you may notice that the memory card is warm.

This is perfectly normal.

Do not use a memory card that is used in another digital camera or memory card reader.

Do not use a memory card formatted by another digital camera or memory card reader.

Preserving the memory card data

If the memory card is subjected to any of the following, the recorded data may become

corrupted :

- When the memory card is used incorrectly.

- If the power is switched off or the memory card is removed while recording, deleting

(formatting) or reading.

Samsung cannot be held responsible for lost data.

It is advisable to copy important data onto other media as back-up e.g. floppy disks, hard

disks, CD etc.

If there is insufficient memory available : If you press the shutter button for the shot, a [CARD

FULL !] message will appear and the camera will not operate. To optimize the amount of

memory in the camera, replace the memory card or delete unnecessary images stored on

the memory.

settings.

When the Flash Off or Slow synchro mode is selected in a low lighting condition, the camera

shake warning indicator (

) may appear on the LCD monitor. In this case, use a tripod,

support the camera on a solid surface or change the flash mode to flash shot mode.

Backlight compensated shots: When taking an outdoor shot, avoid facing the sun, as the

image may be dark because of the strong backlight. To take a picture against the sun, please

use the [BACKLIGHT] in the scene shooting mode (see page 53), Fill-in flash (see page 33),

Spot metering (see page 50), or Exposure compensation (see page 43).

Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.

As there can be some differences between what is seen through the Viewfinder and the

resulting image when taken at a range closer than 1.5m, it is recommended that you use the

LCD monitor to compose these shots.

Using the LCD monitor extensively will drain the batteries.

We recommend turning off the LCD monitor and using the optical viewfinder as often as

possible in order to extend battery life.

Under certain conditions the auto focus system may not perform as expected.

- When photographing a subject that has little contrast.

- If the subject is highly reflective or shiny.

- If the subject is moving at high speed.

- When there is strong reflected light, or when the background is very bright.

- When the subject matter has only horizontal lines or the subject is very narrow (such as a

stick or flagpole).

TIFF format is an uncompressed image file format for an expert. If you take a picture with

the TIFF file format, the number of available shots is decreased and the time for recording

the image file will be longer because the TIFF file size is bigger than the JPG file format.

When the TIFF file is being recorded to the memory card, a [PLEASE WAIT!] message will

be displayed on the LCD monitor.

This file format complies with the DCF(Design rule for Camera File system).

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group): JPEG is the image compression standard

developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. This type of compression is most

commonly used for compressing photos and graphics because it can compress the files

efficiently without damaging the data.

Metering

If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change the metering method to take brighter

pictures.

Exposure will be calculated based on an

average of the available light in the image

Important notes

Be sure to observe the following precautions!

This unit contains precision electronic components. Do not use or store this unit in the

following locations.

- Areas exposed to severe changes in temperature and humidity.

- Areas exposed to dust and dirt.

- Areas exposed to direct sunlight or the inside of a vehicle in hot weather.

- Environments where there is high magnetism or excessive vibration.

- Areas with high explosives or highly flammable materials.

Do not let the unit come into contact with dust, vinyl goods, or chemicals, such as

insecticides, for an extended period of time.

Sand can be particularly troublesome to cameras.

- Do not let sand get inside the unit when using it on beaches, coastal dunes, or other areas

where there is lots of sand.

- Doing so may result in failure or may permanently render the unit unusable.

Extremes in temperature may cause problems.

- If the camera is transferred from a cold to a warm and humid environment, condensation

can form on the delicate electronic circuitry. If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait for at

least 1 hour until all moisture is dispersed. Moisture build up can also occur in the memory

card. If this happens, turn off the camera and remove the memory card. Wait until the

moisture has dispersed.

Caution on Using the Lens

- If the lens is subjected to direct sunlight, it could result in discoloration and deterioration of

the image sensor.

- Pay attention not to get fingerprints or foreign substances on the surface of the lens.

If the digital camera is not used for a long period, an electric discharge can occur.

It is a good idea to remove the batteries and the memory card if you do not intend using the

camera for an extended period of time.

Important notes

If the camera is exposed to an electronic interference, it will turn itself off to protect the

memory card.

Camera Maintenance

- Use a soft brush (available from photo stores) to gently clean the lens and LCD assemblies.

If this does not work, lens-cleaning paper with lens cleaning fluid can be used.

Clean the camera body with a soft cloth. Do not allow this camera to come into contact with

solvent materials such as benzol, insecticide, thinners etc. This may damage the body shell

of the camera and also affect its performance. Rough handling can damage the LCD

monitor. Take care to avoid damage and keep the camera in its protective carry case at all

times when not in use.

Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the camera.

Under certain conditions, static electricity can cause the flash unit to fire. This is not harmful to

the camera and is not a malfunction.

When images are uploaded or downloaded, the data transfer may be affected by static

electricity. In this case, disconnect and re-connect the USB cable before trying the transfer

again.
