General Precautions
Be sure to observe the follo ing important precautions henever us-
ing the QV-30.
All references in this manual to “this camera” and “the camera” refer
to the CASIO QV-30 Digital Camera.
• Never try to take pictures or use the built-in display hile operating
a motor vehicle or hile alking. Doing so creates the danger of
serious accident.
• Never try to open the case of the camera or attempt your o n re-
pairs. High-voltage internal components create the risk of electrical
shock hen exposed. Al ays leave maintenance and repair ork
up to authorized CASIO service providers.
• Keep the camera a ay from ater and other liquids, and never let it
get et. Moisture creates the danger of fire and electrical shock.
Never use the camera outdoors in the rain or sno , at the seashore
or beach, in the bathroom, etc.
• Should foreign matter or ater ever get into the unit, immediately
turn po er off, unplug the AC adaptor from the po er outlet, and

How to avoid hand movement…
Any hand movement hen you press the shutter button can causes
blurring of the recorded image. Note the follo ing points on avoiding
hand movement.
• Make sure there is no excessive movement of the image of the ob-
ject on the LCD.
• Use a tripod henever possible hen recording images in dim light-
ing. The camera automatically adjusts shutter speed in accordance
ith the brightness of the object hose image is being recorded.
Shutter speed is quite slo for dimly lit objects, increasing the pos-
sibility of blurring caused by hand movement.
Fluorescent Lighting
Fluorescent lighting actually flickers at a frequency that cannot be
detected by the human eye. When using the camera indoors under
such lighting, you may experience some brightness or color problems
ith recorded images. The actual extent of the problems depends on
hat cycle of the fluorescent light’s flicker is occurring hen the
camera’s shutter actually releases. For best results, use a commer-
cially available video lights.
Infrared Light
Infrared light generated by a flash or other source can create image
color problems, such as red areas being recorded as green. Such
color problems ill sho up in the LCD hile you are composing the
image.
23
Recording Images
Shooting Images Outdoors
Strong direct or reflected sunlight can cause recorded images to take
on a greenish tinge. This is due to the characteristics of the camera’s
optical pickup and it does not indicate malfunction of the camera. One
ay you can try to minimize this problem is to set the aperture to [●]
(F8).
Changing the Lens Orientation
The lens of the camera is built into a lens body that is designed to
rotate. This means you can change the angle of the lens ithout mov-
ing the rest of the camera.
