LOADING THE BATTERY  
Use the following lithium battery.  
(One) 3V lithium battery. CR2/DL CR2 or equivalent.  
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).  
Open the battery cover in the arrow direction as  
shown in the figure.  
Fig. 3  
Insert the batteries straight as shown in the  
indications so that they are not at a slant, then close  
the battery cover.

when an exposure closer than approximately 1.5m is  
taken.  
As the area visible through the finder and the area  
actually exposed will differ with near-distance  
exposures (owing to the positions of the finder and  
the exposure lens being different), correcting the  
visible range through the finder with the near-  
distance correction mark provides a useful yardstick  
for the area actually exposed.

Even if you forget how many frames were exposed  
on a cartridge that was removed in mid-roll, just  
re-load the cartridge.  
The camera will  
automatically set the remaining number of  
unexposed frames and display that number on the  
Liquid Crystal Display.  
Cautions Concerning the Mid-roll Change Function  
When a cartridge that has been removed in mid-roll ( j is  
displayed) is re-loaded into the camera, if “ B ” blinks in the  
film counter, re-load 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 mid-roll change function, the  
cartridge will be set to exposed k and can no longer be  
used.  
28  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
A cartridge removed in mid-roll k from a camera which does  
not have the Mid-Roll Change function cannot be used even  
if loaded into this camera.  
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.  
The mid-way replacement of cartridges is only guaranteed  
with [ENDEAVOR/FOTONEX] cameras equipped with the  
MRC function manufactured by Fuji Film. There are cases  
where normal operations are not possible when cartridges  
containing frames exposed by MRC cameras manufactured  
by other companies are used.

3. ADVANCED TECHNIQUES  
SELECTING THE EXPOSURE MODE  
Your camera has six exposure modes so that you  
can enjoy photography in response to various  
subjects. These modes are:  
Fig. 44  
(
) Multi program flash mode  
(b) Red-eye reduction flash mode  
( c ) Back light compensation flash mode  
(d ) Flash off mode  
(e ) Landscape mode  
(
) Night portrait (slow sync) mode  
Each time you press in the Mode button, mode signs  
will appear in the LCD in the order of ( ), (b),  
(c), (d), (e), ( ). The finally displayed mode will  
be selected.  
No display : Multi program flash mode  
Fig. 45  
Used during normal exposures  
The amount of flash released will be automatically  
adjusted in accordance with the brightness, distance  
and magnification of the subject.  
The flash lamp does not fire for bright long-  
distance scenes.  
Refer to page 40 for further details on the Multi  
Program flash.

b : Red-eye reduction flash mode  
Fig. 46  
Reduces red-eye  
The flash lamp will fire briefly five times (pre-flash),  
then fire the sixth time for taking your picture.  
The AF lamp sign in the viewfinder eyepiece stays  
on from pre-flash to exposure. Do not move the  
camera while the AF lamp is on.  
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.  
qHave the person being photographed look  
directly at the camera lens.  
wTake pictures by approaching as close as  
possible to the subject.  
31  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
c : Fill-in flash mode  
Fig. 47  
Used when photographing from windows, in the  
shade of trees and for other backlit exposures.  
Takes flash exposures even in bright locations.  
d : Flash Off mode  
Fig. 48  
Use when taking pictures using interior light or for  
taking distant subjects which the flash lamp light  
cannot reach, such as in a theater or stadium.  
The flash lamp will not flash.  
When taking a picture in dim light in the Fill-in  
flash mode, a tripod should be used to avoid  
camera shake.  
32  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
e : Landscape mode  
Fig. 49  
This is used for taking clear landscape pictures or  
photographing remote (night) scenes through  
glass.  
Set the focus in the distance. The flash will not  
operate.  
This feature will be canceled after every exposure.  
When taking pictures in dim light in the landscape  
mode, a tripod should be used to avoid camera  
shake.  
: Night portrait (slow sync) mode  
Fig. 50  
This is used for taking photographs of people at  
night  
The camera will enter the slow-shutter red-eye  
reduction mode (flash emitted after five pre-flashes)  
to enable the clear exposure of both night scenes  
and human subjects.  
33  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
This feature will be canceled after every exposure.  
As a slow shutter speed is used with the night  
portrait mode, ensure that a tripod is used to  
prevent camera-shake. It is also important that  
the subject remains motionless during the  
exposure.  
The daylight flash mode, the Fill-in flash mode,  
and landscape mode and the night portrait (slow  
shutter) mode will be canceled when the power is  
switched off.  
To enable the continual use of the landscape  
mode and night scene portrait mode, press the  
Exposure mode button for two or more  
consecutive seconds when selecting the mode  
until the mark changes from being illuminated to  
blinking. The mode will then remain in place after  
exposure to enable continual use. This feature  
will be canceled automatically when the power is  
switched off.

Subsequent self-timer exposures will be taken at  
intervals of between three to six seconds when two  
or three consecutive self-timer exposures have been  
set.  
Do not press the shutter release button while  
standing in front of the camera. This may cause a  
focusing error or underexposure.  
If you want to cancel the self-timer mode, press  
the r button again to extinguish the sign r in  
Liquid Crystal Display.  
The self-timer mode will be automatically  
canceled after the exposure has been taken and  
when the power is switched off.

such a case.  
Fit the remote controller holder to the camera strap  
for your easy handling.

The battery life is about three years (tested  
according to standard test conditions). If the  
remote controller no longer operates, contact your  
local retailer where you purchased your camera or  
our service center. A replacement battery will be  
available at cost.

MULTI PROGRAM FLASH  
A word on multi program flash  
A new function which allows the camera judging the  
photographing conditions and automatically adjusting the  
quantity of light emitted by the flash according to three different  
data (the brightness of the subject, the distance, and the focal  
length of the lens). The flash always fires automatically unless  
otherwise 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
Cautions Concerning the Mid-roll Change  
Function  
Fig. 60  
When colse-up pictures are taken in a dim place with  
an ordinary flash, it fires in 100% light quantity. As  
the result, the subject is blurred in white. The multi  
program flash reduces the light quantity down to  
12.5% of the ordinary quantity (maximum),  
preventing pictures blurred in white.

Portrait photography at high brightness  
Fig. 61  
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  
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.  
G
Photography against the sun  
Fig. 62  
When a person standing by a window or subject with  
backlight is photographed, the subject becomes a  
shade and an under-exposure may result. In this  
case also, the multi program flash automatically  
provides the optimum light quantity 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).  
c 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.  
v Do not put the camera in a closed car for a long time.  
b 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.  
n 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.  
m The operating temperature range of the camera is from –10°C to +40°C.
