4.1 Attaching the wrist strap and the sticker
A wrist strap is supplied with the camera. Attach the wrist strap as follows.
1. Insert the thin end of the wrist strap through the eye (14 in figure 1).
2. Make a loop with the string of the wrist strap which has been inserted through
the eye (14).
3. Thread the other end of the wrist strap through the loop made in point 2.
A transparent sticker with brief instructions is also supplied with the camera. Attach
the sticker as follows.
1. Find the sticker printed in the language you prefer. The sticker is printed in a
number of different languages.
2. Fold open the camera’s LCD screen.
3. Remove the back from the sticker to expose the sticky side.
4. Stick the sticker under switch 18 (see figure 1), i.e. in the space on the
housing which is covered when the LCD screen is folded closed. Do not stick
the sticker over the switch.
Note: Be careful. The sticker cannot be removed at a later date. Any
attempt to remove it may damage the housing.
4.2 Inserting an optional Compact Flash card
A Compact Flash card is supplied with some models. See the contents of the
packaging printed on the box to see whether a Compact Flash card is included with
your camera. You can also purchase these cards separately to increase the number
of recordings that the camera can save.
1. Hold the camera with the lens of the camera facing forwards (see figure 3).
2. Insert the CF card into the camera with the top of the card facing to the left.
3. Press the card firmly into place. The card must not protrude from the camera.
Do not use excessive force to insert the card into the camera.
If you save recordings (without the CF card) in the camera’s internal memory and
insert a CF card into the camera after that, the recordings in the internal memory will
no longer be visible. Remove the CF card from the camera to view the recordings in
the internal memory. It is not recommended to use the internal memory if you have a
CF card, because the internal memory is deleted if the batteries are replaced or
become empty.
Note: External card reader: use the camera, not the card reader, to format the
card. The camera cannot process the FAT32 or NTFS formats.
Note: Make a back-up of your photographs before using Windows Explorer in
Windows XP. This program may alter your photographs and this cannot
be undone.
Note: After taking a photograph, wait at least 5 seconds before opening the
battery compartment. If the camera is still writing data to the card when
the batteries are removed, all the photographs on the card may be
deleted.
Note: Keep the CF card where it is free of dust. Dust and sand can enter the
holes in the card’s connection point and damage the camera or the card.

Note: Only use non-rechargeable alkaline batteries or NiMH 1600 mA, or
higher, rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries do not work
correctly in this camera.
Note: Digital cameras use a lot of power. The batteries will last
approximately one hour if the LCD screen is used. They may not last
as long if video is recorded continuously. The life span of the batteries
also depends on the make and type of batteries and the make and
capacity of the CF card. Use Duracell Ultra batteries or rechargeable
NiMH batteries for a longer life span. Turning off the LCD screen will
also make the batteries last longer.
Note: Recordings saved in the internal 8 MB memory will be deleted when
the batteries are replaced or become empty. Use a CF card or transfer
the recordings to your computer before replacing the batteries or
before they become empty.
The battery condition is shown on the LCD screen (10, figure 2) as follows.
The batteries are full.
The battery capacity is low. Only a few more photographs can be
taken.
The batteries are empty.

not be sharp when the macro setting is selected. Select the macro setting as follows.
Macro setting
1. Direct the camera towards the object that you wish to photograph.
2. Rotate the lens ring anticlockwise. You will feel two clicks, one when it exits
the normal setting and one when the macro setting is reached. The arrow on
the lens ring will now be pointing at the flower symbol.
Normal setting
1. Direct the camera towards the object that you wish to photograph.

4.7 Making recordings
4.7.1 The first photograph
Comment: To save the batteries, the camera will turn off automatically when it
has not been used for 1 minute.
See figure 1.
1. Turn the camera on (see chapter 4.4).
2. Fold the LCD screen open.
3. You can turn on the LCD screen using the LCD switch (18) or you can use
the viewfinder (6).
4. Turn the menu off if it is visible. You cannot take photographs if the menu is
visible.
5. If you use the viewfinder, hold it in front of you 20 to 40 cm from your eyes.
The viewfinder has been designed to be used this way because there is no
space for your face close to the camera.
6. Focus the object to be photographed. If necessary, use the macro setting
(see chapter 4.6.5).
7. Hold the camera still.
8. Press the exposure button (1). The photograph will now be taken. The image
on the LCD screen will disappear for a short period of time and the LED
indicator (above the video button) will be lit.
9. Wait until the camera is ready. The camera is ready to take another
photograph when a noise is heard and the LED is turned off.
Note: Keep the glass of the lens clean. Use a cotton bud to clean the lens.
If necessary, use special cleaning liquid for camera lenses. Do not
use a different cleaning product.
Note: All the recordings in the camera’s internal memory are deleted when
the batteries are replaced or when they become empty. Transfer the
photographs to your computer before replacing the batteries or use a
CF card. A CF card saves recordings even without batteries.
Tip: The quality of the photograph depends on the surrounding light. More
light will result in a better picture.
Tip: The number of photographs that can be taken depends on the
number of details of the object to be photographed. The specifications
are an approximation.
Tip: The image viewed through the viewfinder may be slightly different to
what is recorded through the lens. You can use the LCD screen for
greater accuracy.

the quality to ‘Low’. If the CF card is full, it can be removed and
recordings can then be saved in the internal memory.
4.7.2 Taking photographs using the automatic exposure function
Also see figures 1 and 2. You can take a photograph of yourself using the automatic
exposure function. The camera has a built-in mirror on the front (4, figure 1) which is
used to see approximately what will be photographed. Another use for this mirror is
to make a recording in poor lighting without affecting the sharpness.
1. Place the camera on the stand.
2. Turn the camera on (see chapter 4.4).
3. Direct the camera at the subject to be photographed. If necessary, use the
LCD screen.
4. Select the automatic exposure function using the menu button. This is
symbol 6 in figure 2.
5. Press the exposure button (button 1, figure 1). The LED will start to flash
slowly. The LED will flash more quickly just before the photograph is taken. A
signal will be heard. The photograph has been taken when the LED is no
longer lit.
6. Exit the menu to turn off the automatic exposure function.
4.7.3 Recording video clips
See figure 1. Carry out the following to record a video clip.
1. Turn the camera on (see chapter 4.4).
2. Turn the menu off if it is visible. You cannot record a video clip if the menu is
visible.
3. Direct the camera at the subject. If necessary, use the LCD screen.
4. Press the video button (button 8, figure 1). The camera will now start
recording. The LED above the video button will flash. The counter for the
elapsed time will be visible on the LCD screen.
5. Press the video button to stop recording. A sound will be heard and the
recording will be stopped.
Tip: The quality of the video recording depends on the surrounding light.
More light will result in a better image.
Tip: The maximum duration of a video recording depends on the camera’s
memory. An approximation is given in table 9.
Tip: The result will be better if you move the camera slowly or hold it still
whilst recording. Quick movements may lead to jerky images,
because the video clip is recorded at 10 images per second, which is
less than the standard 25 images per second.
Tip: The batteries will last longer if you turn off the LCD screen and use
the viewfinder.
Comment: The camera makes a new video clip each time a video recording is
started. These clips can be edited together to make a film at a later
date using the software supplied with the camera. Many short clips
are more difficult to edit than less, but longer clips.

provided.
3. Wait a couple of seconds. The computer will detect the camera and the LCD
screen will be turned on.

6. Search for ‘Removable Disk’ and open it. A folder entitled ‘DCIM’ will be
visible. If not, find a second ‘Removable Disk’ and open it.
7. Double-click on the ‘DCIM’ folder. A folder entitled ‘100media’ will be visible.
If you have taken a large number of recordings, these will be saved in
different folders, such as 100media, 101media, 102media, etc.
8. Double-click on the ‘100media’ folder. The files will now be visible.
9. Copy all the files to a suitable location on your hard disk (for example C:\My

Note: If you wish to enlarge photographs from the camera to a resolution of
3.3 Mpix, use the method described in chapters 7.1.2 and 7.1.3. The
method described above only produces a maximum resolution of 2
Mpix.
7.2 Ulead Photo Express 4
You can use this application to solve problems with the pictures, such as the red-eye
effect, coloured photographs, photographs which are too bright or too dark, remove
undesirable objects from the background, etc. You can also use this application to
design calendars and cards.
Follow the instructions given below:
1. Copy your photographs to your hard disk as described in chapter 7.1.2 or
7.1.6.
2. Click on ‘Start – Programs – Ulead Photo Express 4.0 SE – Ulead Photo
Express 4.0 SE’. Figure 12 will appear. You will be in the ‘Browse’ mode.

6. Click on ‘Edit’ at the top of the window and select an option. The most
common options are included here.
7. Click on ‘Save’ after editing the photograph to save the finished result.
See this program’s instruction manual and Help function for more information.
Note: The photographs are saved in JPEG format to save space. JPEG
reduces the size of the file by removing small details from the
photograph. If you wish to edit the photographs during different
sessions, use a different file format to JPEG (for example, TIFF) to
prevent the loss of quality as a result of constant loading and saving in
the JPEG format.
Note: Since editing cannot be undone, it is recommended to make a copy of
the photographs and to only edit the copies. You can then always return
to the original photographs. It is strongly recommended to make a back-
up on a CD-ROM using a CD-writer for protection against computer
faults.
7.3 Ulead Photo Explorer 7
You can use Ulead Photo Explorer 7.0 to easily download photographs onto your
computer. A short description of how to use Photo Explorer is given below. For a

Note: The program has the option to publish the photographs on the Internet (if
you have a connection to the Internet). This is useful if you wish to show
your photographs to friends. Remember that anybody will then be able to
see your photographs and the company that administers the site has the
right to use your photographs in advertisements. This is also often the
case with other photograph sharing websites and is partly the reason
that they are free. Read the conditions for use first. Photograph share
sites such as www.pbase.com and www.photo.net do not use your
photographs for advertisements or other uses.
