Precautions
General Precautions
Be sure to observe the following important precautions whenever us-
ing the QV-700.
All references in this manual to “this camera” and “the camera” refer
to the CASIO QV-700 Digital Camera.
• Never try to take pictures or use the built-in display while operating
a motor vehicle or while walking. Doing so creates the danger of
serious accident.
• Never try to open the case of the camera or attempt your own re-
pairs. High-voltage internal components create the risk of electrical
shock when exposed. Always leave maintenance and repair work
up to authorized CASIO service providers.
• Keep the camera away from water and other li uids, and never let it
get wet. Moisture creates the danger of fire and electrical shock.
Never use the camera outdoors in the rain or snow, at the seashore
or beach, in the bathroom, etc.
• Should foreign matter or water ever get into the unit, immediately
turn power off, unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet, and
contact your dealer or nearest CASIO service provider. Using the
unit under these conditions creates the danger of fire and electrical
shock.
• Should you ever notice smoke or a strange odor coming out of the
unit, immediately turn power off and unplug the AC adaptor from the
power outlet. Using the unit under these conditions creates the dan-
ger of fire and electrical shock. After making sure there is no more
smoke coming from the unit, take it to your nearest CASIO service
provider for repair. Never attempt your own maintenance.
• If the unit’s case should ever become cracked due to dropping it or
otherwise subjecting it to rough treatment, immediately turn power
off, unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet, and contact your
nearest CASIO service provider.
Precautions LCD Digital Camera
6
• Never use the unit inside of an air craft or in any other areas where
its use is prohibited. Doing so can result in an accident.
• Physical damage and malfunction of this unit can cause the image
data stored in its memory to be deleted. Be sure to always keep
backup copies of data by transferring them to personal computer
memory.
• Never open the battery compartment cover, disconnect the AC
adaptor from the camera or unplug it from the wall socket while the
“WAIT” message is on the LCD. Doing so will not only make storage
of the current image impossible, it can also corrupt other image data
already stored in camera memory.
Data Errors
Any of the following conditions can result in corruption of data stored
on a memory card.
• Removal of camera batteries, disconnection of the AC adaptor, or
removal of the memory card while a record or data communication
operation is taking place
• Disconnection of the cable while a data communication operation is
taking place
• Other abnormal operation
7
Precautions
Memory card error message System error message
Perform the procedure on
page 96 of this Owner’s
Manual.
Take the camera to your
nearest authorized CASIO
Service Provider.
A data error causes camera operation to lock up and one of the mes-
sages shown below to appear on the monitor screen. When this hap-
pens, perform one of the procedures indicated below.
Battery Life Notes
• The battery life figures noted in the specifications of this Owner’s
Manual indicate the number of hours before battery failure under
normal operating temperatures (25°C). They do not guarantee that
batteries will perform for any amount of time.
• The actual number of hours of service provided by batteries varies
widely depending upon manufacturer, battery age, and tempera-
ture.
• Long term continued use of the camera can cause the low battery
indicator to appear sooner than expected. Be sure to turn off power
whenever the camera is not being used.
• Appearance of the low battery indicator means that batteries are
about to go dead. Be sure to replace all four batteries a fresh set of
new ones as soon as possible. Leaving dead batteries in the cam-
era creates the danger of leaking batter fluid and corruption of
stored image data.
LCD Digital Camera

Operating conditions
• This camera is designed for use in temperatures ranging from 0°C
to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).
• Do not use or keep the camera in the following areas.
— In areas subject to direct sunlight
— In areas subject to high humidity or dust
— Near air conditioners, heaters, or other areas subject to tem-
perature extremes
— Inside of a closed vehicle, especially one parked in the sun
— In areas subject to strong vibration
Condensation
• When you bring the camera indoors on a cold day or otherwise ex-
pose it to a sudden change of temperature, there is the possibility
that condensation can form on the exterior or on interior compo-
nents. Condensation can cause malfunction of the camera, so you
should avoid exposing it to conditions that might cause condensa-
tion.
• To keep condensation from forming, place the camera into a plastic
bag before moving it into a location that is much warmer or colder
than your current location. Leave it in the plastic bag until the air
inside the bag has a chance to reach the same temperature as the
new location. If condensation does form, remove the batteries from
the camera and leave the battery compartment cover open for a few
hours.

Memory Card Precautions
• Images cannot be recorded with this camera unless a memory card
is installed in it.
• Be sure to use only CASIO memory cards. Proper operation with
other memory cards is not guaranteed.
• Static electricity, electrical noise, and other electrical phenomena
can cause corruption or even total loss of the data stored on a
memory card. Because of this, you should always make backup
copies of important images on other media (magnetic optical disk,
floppy diskette, computer hard disk, etc.).
• Memory card problems can be corrected by reformatting the
memory card (page 18). Reformatting a memory card deletes all
images stored on the card, but you can use a computer to copy the
images you want to keep to the computer’s hard disk before
reformatting your card. If you plan to be recording images where
you do not have access to a computer, it is a good idea to take
along an extra memory card or two just in case you experience an
unexpected memory card problem.
Memory Card Folder Precautions
• The folders (directories) (page 20) are automatically created if the
card you are using does not already have similarly named folders
(page 68).
• Any folders (created on the memory card by a personal computer)
other than those shown on page 20 do not appear on the camera’s
display.
• You can store up to 250 images in a single folder. Any images
above this number (placed in the folder using a personal computer)
are not displayed by the camera.

• When calculating remaining memory capacity, the camera com-
pares the total capacity of the memory card with the number of im-
ages that can be stored in each folder. The value indicating the
number of images that still can be recorded is the lower of these two
values.
• Images in camera memory are assigned names that are generated
according to the following format:
<First 5 characters of folder name> + <3-digit number> + .CAM
The 3-digit number starts with 001 and is incremented for each ad-
ditional image. Deleting or moving images causes all following im-
ages to be renamed (renumbered) so there are never any breaks in
the se uential numbering.

Battery Handling Precautions
Incorrect use or handling of batteries can cause them to leak or burst
and seriously damage your camera. Be sure to note the following
important precautions to avoid problems with batteries.
• Use only LR6 (AM-3) type alkaline or
FR6 type lithium dry cell batteries
with this camera. Never mix old bat-
teries with new ones. Failure to do so
can result in bursting or leaking of
batteries, creating the danger of fire
or personal injury.
• Always make sure that the positive
[+] and negative [–] ends of the bat-
teries are facing correctly, as noted
by the markings on the camera itself.
Improper loading of batteries can re-
sult in bursting or leaking of batteries,
creating the danger of personal injury
or soiling of objects nearby.
Caution
• Remove batteries from the camera if you do not plan to use it for
more than two weeks.
• Never recharge batteries, never allow direct connection between
two ends of a battery, and never try to take batteries apart.
• Do not expose batteries to direct heat or dispose of them by burn-
ing. Doing so can create the danger of explosion.
• Never mix batteries of different types.
• Dead batteries are susceptible to leakage, which can cause serious
damage to your camera. Remove batteries from the camera as
soon as you notice they are dead.
• The batteries that power this camera normally become warm when
they lose power. This does not indicate malfunction.

Standard Battery Life
The battery life reference values given below indicate the amount of
time at standard temperature (25°C) until power automatically turns
off due to battery failure. They do not guarantee that batteries will
perform the amount of service indicated. Battery life is reduced by low
temperatures and continued use.
LR6(AM3) AA-size alkaline batteries
Approximately 160 minutes (Auto Play)
Approximately 550 images (continuous recording)
FR6 AA-size lithium batteries
Approximately 270 minutes (Auto Play)
Approximately 1,050 images (continuous recording)
“Continuous recording” is made without use of the camera’s flash.
Regardless of use of the camera’s flash, turning on and off the power
switch, as well as other operating conditions may affect the above
values.
Note
The above values are obtained based on Panasonic’s alkaline bat-
teries and Fujifilm’s lithium batteries.
They may vary if other manufacturer’s batteries are used. For your
reference, the values when the camera is operated with Duracell’s
batteries are shown below.

adaptor (AD-C620).
AC Adaptor precautions
• Never use an electrical outlet whose
voltage is outside the rating marked
on the camera. Doing so can create
the danger of fire or electrical shock.
Use only the optional AC adaptor
specified for this camera.
• Should the cord of the AC adaptor
become damaged (exposed internal
wiring or shorts), re uest a replace-
ment from an authorized CASIO
service provider. A damaged AC
adaptor cord creates the danger of
fire or electrical shock.

• Always be sure to use the AD-C620
AC adaptor only. Using any other AC
adaptor can cause damage to the
camera not covered by the warranty.
• When unplugging the AC adaptor
from the wall socket, be sure to
grasp the adaptor (not the cord).
• Avoid an undue bending, pulling,
and twisting of the AC adaptor's
cord, and never try to lengthen the
cord by splicing it with other wire.
• Be sure to switch power off before connecting or disconnecting the
adaptor.
• Always turn camera power off before disconnecting the AC adaptor,
even if the camera has batteries installed. If you don't, the camera
will turn off automatically when you disconnect the AC adaptor.
Even so, you run the risk of damaging the camera whenever you
disconnect the AC adaptor without first turning power off.
• The AC adaptor may become warm to the touch after extended pe-
riods of use. This is normal and is not cause for alarm.
• After use turn off the power switch of the camera and unplug adap-
tor from the AC outlet.

How to avoid hand movement…
Any hand movement when you press the shutter button can causes
blurring of the recorded image. Note the following points on avoiding
hand movement.
• Make sure there is no excessive movement of the image of the ob-
ject on the LCD.
Fluorescent Lighting
Fluorescent lighting actually flickers at a fre uency that cannot be
detected by the human eye. When using the camera indoors under
such lighting, you may experience some brightness or color problems
with recorded images.
Caution
Never open the battery compartment cover, disconnect the AC
adaptor from the camera or unplug it from the wall socket while the
“WAIT” message is on the LCD. Doing so will not only make storage
of the current image impossible, it can also corrupt other image data
already stored in camera memory.

Shooting Images Outdoors
Note that strong direct or reflected light can cause vertical lines in an
image. This is due to the characteristics of the camera’s charge-cou-
pled device (CCD), and it does not indicate malfunction of the cam-
era.
Shooting with the Flash
With the AUTO Flash Mode, the camera automatically fires the flash
whenever it detects that lighting is too low. Note that the monitor
screen image disappears and the charger lamp flashes to indicate
that the flash unit is recharging. See “Using the Flash” on page 41 for
full details on using the flash.
Important!
Do not fire the flash when it is located a very short distance from a
person, especially when it is pointed at the person’s face. Doing so
creates the danger of eye damage.
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 without mov-
ing the rest of the camera.
Rotates up to 90
°
towards the front Rotates up to 180
°

Recording Images
• Any images recorded while the lens body is rotated so the lens is
pointed from the back of the camera are stored as mirror images of
the image that appears in the LCD before the shutter button is
pressed.

NORMAL/MACRO Switch
The NORMAL/MACRO switch tells the camera
how much distance there will be between the
lens and the object whose image you are record-
ing. The following table describes the conditions
covered by each switch setting.
is shown on the monitor screen whenever the
macro position is in use.
Focus Range (MACRO)

The above figures indicate the distance from the lens protection filter
to the subject.
Resolution Modes
The camera has three resolution modes: FINE ( ), NORMAL ( ),
and ECONOMY ( ). The following shows the number of images that
can be recorded on a 2MB memory card in each mode.
• To determine the number of images that can be stored on a memory
card of a different capacity, multiply the capacities in the table by the
appropriate value. In the case of a 4MB memory card, for example,
multiply by 2.
• The actual number of images that can be recorded may differ some-
what from the values provided below, due to the amount of memory
re uired for storage of different types of images.

Exposure Adjustment
This camera features an program AE function that automatically
changes shutter speed and aperture in accordance with available
light. In addition, you can also manually adjust the exposure to com-
pensate for backlighting, indirect indoor lighting, dark backgrounds,
and other special conditions.
To manually adjust the exposure
. Set the function switch to the REC position.
2. Use [+] and [–] to perform exposure compensation and dis-
play a bar graph on the monitor screen.
• Pressing [+] makes the image on the LCD brighter. Use it to
adjust for dim indoor lighting and backlighting.
• Pressing [–] makes the image on the LCD darker. Use it to
adjust for bright sunlight.
• The bar graph turns red whenever the compensation value
is at its limit.
3. After adjusting the exposure, press the shutter button to
record the image.

Notes
• Exposure adjustment is generally expressed in terms of an expo-
sure adjustment value. The exposure adjustment value is always
set to zero whenever you turn on the camera.
• The exposure adjustment value is changed by 0.5EV with each
press of [+] or [–]. The range of the value is -2EV to +2EV.
• The exposure adjustment value automatically reverts to zero when-
ever the shutter button is pressed. You can manually reset the ex-
posure adjustment value by using [+] and [–] to change the value
back to zero, which is indicated when the bar graph disappears
from the monitor.
Important!
• When the exposure adjustment is too bright or too dark, you may
not be able to adjust within the range of -2EV to +2EV.
• The aperture setting of this camera switches automatically in ac-
cordance with available lighting when an image is recorded. The
switching operation causes the camera to emit a noise. This is nor-
mal and does not indicate malfunction.

Low Battery Indicator
A low battery indicator ( ) appears on the monitor screen when-
ever remaining battery capacity drops below a certain level. Appear-
ance of this indicator tells you that batteries are about to go dead and
need to be replaced with a full set of four new ones as soon as possi-
ble.
Note that the camera may automatically shut down at a somewhat
higher level of remaining battery capacity when a computer is con-
nected to its DIGITAL terminal for data communication. This is to pro-
tect against problems caused by sudden power outage during data
communications. Because of this, we strongly recommend that you
use the optionally available AC adaptor to power the camera when-
ever performing data communication with a personal computer.
• See page 22 for details on how to replace the batteries.

Memory Remaining Indicators
The message “REMAINING” indicates that you must change to a
different mode (resolution) in order to record more images. This mes-
sage appears in either of the two following cases.
• When you are recording in the FINE mode and remaining memory
capacity cannot accept any more FINE images but can accept addi-
tional NORMAL or ECONOMY images.
• When you are recording in the NORMAL mode and remaining
memory capacity cannot accept any more NORMAL images but
can accept additional ECONOMY images.
In either of the above cases, use button to change to a
lower resolution mode if you want to continue recording images.
Should the “MEMORY FULL” message appear, it means that you will
not be able to record any more images or use certain functions (such
as filters, mixing and titles) until you delete some images currently on
the memory card (page 75), convert some FINE images to NORMAL
or some NORMAL images to ECONOMY images (page 80), or re-
place the memory card with a different one (page 16).
• Note that the image capacity numbers provided in this Owner’s
manual are for reference purposes only. They do not guarantee that
you will be able to actually store the number of images indicated.
