1. PRELIMINARY STEPS
ATTACHING THE STRAP
Pass the smaller loop end of the strap through the
camera’s strap lug.
Fig. 1
Next, pass the longer loop end of the strap through
the smaller loop, and pull the longer loop end.
Fig. 2
✻ When using a commercial strap, check the
strength and other properties of the strap.
Because straps for cellular telephones, PHS, etc.
are for light devices, be especially careful when
using them.

LOADING THE BATTERY
Use the following lithium battery.
# CR123A/DL123A 3V (one)
✻ One lithium battery has enough power for taking
approximately 300 shots (Based on our test
conditions).
✻ If many rolls of film are used, when travelling, for
example, it is desirable to take spare batteries
(particular in areas where it may be difficult to
obtain batteries).

✻ Do not load the cartridge before inserting the
battery.

Cautions Concerning the Mid-roll Change Function
✻ When a cartridge that has been removed in mid-roll ( j is
displayed) is reloaded into the camera, if “ B ” blinks in the
film counter, reload the cartridge once more, avoiding the
following locations.
• Anywhere near a drier, fan, vacuum cleaner, etc., which
has a rotating motor.
• Near an active TV or personal computer display.
✻ If a cartridge is removed in mid-roll j and then loaded into a
camera which does not have the MRC function, the cartridge
will be set to exposed k and can no longer be used.
✻ A cartridge removed in mid-roll k from a camera which does
not have the MRC function cannot be used even if loaded
into this camera.
28

✻ If a cartridge is removed in mid-roll j and sent to the
processor, all frames on the entire roll will be developed.
Expose all frames on the roll before sending the cartridge to
the processor for development.
✻ Mid-Roll change of cartridge is guaranteed only among our
FOTONEX/ENDEAVOR series and nexia series of cameras
with MRC functions. If a cartridge exposed with another
make of camera with an MRC function is used, operation may
not be normal.

About red-eye
When a person is photographed with flash in dim
light, the eyes will sometimes turn out red. This is
because the light from the flash lamp is reflected
back into the lens from the back (retina) of the
person’s eyes.
In addition to using the red-eye reduction mode,
observance of the following is effective in reducing
red-eye.
• Have the person being photographed look
directly at the camera lens.
• Take pictures by approaching as close as
possible to the subject.

✻ This feature will be canceled after every exposure.
✻ As a slow shutter speed is used with the night

subject remains motionless during the exposure.
✻ The fill-in flash mode, the flash off flash mode,

When the shutter release is depressed, the camera
focuses on the subject in the AF frame and the self-
timer starts. The self-timer lamp (or multi-operation
button’s guide lamp) will begin to blink approximately
7 seconds after being illuminated, and the shutter
will be released approximately 3 seconds after that.
Subsequent self-timer exposures will be taken at
intervals of between 3 to 6 seconds when 2 or 3
consecutive self-timer exposures have been set.

MULTI PROGRAM FLASH
A word on multi program flash
A new function which allows the camera photographing
conditions and automatically adjusting the quantity of light
emitted by the flash by analyzing the brightness of the subject,
the distance, and the focal length of the lens.
The flash always fires automatically unless the subject is bright
or too far. This programmed flash allows anyone to take clean
pictures simply.
Some practical examples are introduced to explain the effects.

G
Close-up photography in a room or night scene
Fig. 71
When close-up pictures are taken in a dim place with
an ordinary flash, it fires in 100%. As a result, the
subject is blurred in white. The multi program flash
reduces the light quantity down to 12.5%, preventing
pictures to be blurred in white.
G
Portrait photography at high brightness
Fig. 72
When a person is photographed in bright daylight,
his (her) face is likely to be spotted with the shades
of hair and nose. Even in such a case, the multi
program flash automatically fires to reduce the
shades. It seems unnecessary to use the flash in a
bright place. However, you will understand the effect
by comparing a picture taken with the flash used and
a picture taken without using the flash.

Photography against the sun
Fig. 73
When photographing a person who is backlit or
standing by a window, the subject appears as a
shadow. As a result, the features will be too dark to
distinguish. In this case also, the multi-program
flash automatically provides the correct amount of
light so that you can take beautiful pictures.
CAMERA CARE AND CAUTIONS
z Your camera is a precision instrument which requires careful
handling. Do not expose it to shock, liquid, or drop it on the
floor.
q If you use the camera at the seaside or in light rain, be
careful not to get it wet. Also be careful not to put the
camera in places where it will be easily exposed to sand.
w Dropping the camera on the floor or striking it against
hard objects sometimes causes trouble even though it
may be in the camera case. Also do not put the camera
in places where it is exposed to vibrations (such as the
trunk of a car).
x If you are not using your camera for a long time, keep it
where it will be safe from heat, moisture, dust, and harmful
gases (such as naphthalene which is used in drawers).
47
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
c Since this camera is computer-controlled, it almost never operates
erroneously. If erroneous operation should occur, remove and then
reload the battery.
v This advanced photo system magnetically records the information on
the film. Therefore, do not expose film cartridges or a film cartridge
loaded camera to strong magnetic fields.
b Do not put the camera in a closed car for a long time.
n It is recommended that undeveloped film and cameras containing film
are carried as hand luggage when using aircraft. If included in
checked-in baggage, X-ray inspections may cause overprinting or
other effects.
m Remove soil and dust from the lens, the AF window and the finder
with an air blower and by wiping lightly with a piece of soft cloth. If
that is not enough, wipe off gently with Lens Cleaning Paper,
moistened slightly with Lens Cleaning Liquid. Do not use organic
solvents such as alcohol and benzene.
, The operating temperature range of the camera is from –10°C to
+40°C.
. Since the performance of the battery will drop in cold district, warm
the battery by placing it inside your garments, etc. before use. The
performance of a battery whose performance has temporarily
dropped can be recovered by returning the battery to normal
temperature.
