are excessively warm to the touch.  
Always replace all four batteries with four identical, new (or fully charged) ones.

Safety Information (cont.)  
Avoid leaving the camera in the sun or in a very warm location (on the beach, in a car,  
etc.) for prolonged periods of time.  
Do not wrap the camera in cloth or plastic while it is turned on (this may trap heat and  
moisture and damage the camera).  
Avoid using the camera in excessively cold (below 32°F/C) or excessively warm (above  
104°F/40°C) conditions.  
When you bring the ePhoto 1280 from a cold to a warm location, allow the camera to  
reach room temperature before you use it.  
Do not drop or bump the camera.  
CAUTION: Use only the optional Agfa ePhoto AC adapter with your camera. The use of any  
other adapter will void your warranty and may damage the camera.  
!!  
Turning the Camera On and Off  
The ePhoto 1280 can be turned on in two ways:  
To take pictures — Turn the Mode switch to REC.  
To view stored images — Turn the Mode switch to PLAY.

Turning the Camera On and Off (cont.)  
Automatic Power Down Feature  
Whenever the ePhoto 1280 is not connected to a computer, the camera powers down auto-  
matically after 60 seconds of inactivity. To turn the camera back on in REC mode, press the  
shutter button (this does not take a picture); in PLAY, turn the Mode switch to OFF and back  
to PLAY.  
Note: The automatic power down time can be changed in PhotoWise (see the .pdf file  
PhotoWise Tips or on-line help in PhotoWise for details).  
!
Taking Pictures  
Unlike conventional cameras, the ePhoto 1280 has no viewfinder. The image seen through  
the lens is shown on the color LCD screen. For best results, hold the camera as follows to  
frame and take pictures:  
switch and your thumb to the left of the zoom buttons. Use your index finger to press the

Taking Pictures (cont.)  
Note: To take pictures with the ePhoto 1280 you must have batteries installed and a remov-  
able memory card inserted. (If you have not already done so, see the Getting Started sheet  
in your package for instructions.)  
!
To take pictures:  
Turn the Mode switch to REC. The LCD screen briefly shows the Agfa logo and then the  
live” image seen through the lens.  
Swivel the lens and use the zoom buttons (+ to zoom in, – to zoom out) while framing your  
picture on the LCD screen.  
Note: If the lens swivels more than 45° toward the viewer, the image on the LCD screen is  
flipped upside down so it will appear rightside up.  
!
Hold the camera still and fully press the shutter button. The camera beeps and the LCD  
screen display freezes for a few seconds while the image is processed and stored.  
Note: Pressing the shutter button down halfway activates the camera’s automatic focus and  
light meter.  
!
The higher the resolution of the image is, or the more data there is to capture in the scene,  
the longer the image takes to process. When the LCD screen again shows the live image, the  
camera is ready for the next shot.

To download the images:  
Connect the camera to your computer.  
Turn the camera’s Mode switch to PLAY.  
Note: Whenever the ePhoto 1280 is connected to your computer, the LED next to the flash  
blinks. However, the camera’s LCD screen is blank because the camera can be controlled  
only from the computer.

PhotoGenie removes image artifacts (irregularities) such as those from JPEG compression,  
pixelation, jagged edges and posterization commonly found in digital images. This process  
enhances image quality, but increases download time and image file size.

Camera Care and Maintenance (cont.)  
To clean the camera lens or LCD screen, blow away any surface dust or dirt. Then breathe  
on the lens to form a mist and gently wipe it with a soft, lint-free cloth or lens cleaning  
tissue.  
To avoid scratching the lens, use a gentle, circular motion when wiping.  
If necessary, clean battery contacts with a dry cloth before installation.  
If condensation develops inside the camera, stop using it immediately. Leave the camera  
at room temperature for a few hours to allow the condensation to evaporate.
