ADVANCEDPHOTOSYSTEMFEATURESAVAILABLE
WITH THIS CAMERA
Double exposure protection (DEP)
• You don’t need to worry about accidentally
re-exposing your film. Your camera reads
the Film Status Indicator (FSI) on the film
cassette to prevent re-exposure.
Picture quality information exchange
(PQix)
• Your camera features magnetic
information exchange that records
information about lighting conditions and
exposure on the film cassette to assist
the photofinishing lab with color
correction and exposure adjustments,
providing you with the best possible
results.
Triple format selection
• You can take three different size
pictures: Classic (C), Group/HDTV (H),
and Panoramic (P) pictures from the
same film cassette. The viewfinder frame
changes to match each format selection.
Date and time imprinting/titling
• You can choose to have date and time
information printed on the front and back
of your prints or on the back only.
• With this camera, you can also choose a
title from the Title-select list and a
language (five options) before taking the
picture. The selected title will be printed on
the back of your photograph. (See your
photofinisher for a full description of
available services.)
