IMPORTANT!

•The snapshot image or movie that you select as the

startup image is stored in a special memory location

called “startup image memory”. Only one image can

be stored in startup image memory at one time.

Selecting a new startup image overwrites anything

that is already stored in startup image memory.

Because of this, if you want to return to a previous

startup image, you need to have a separate copy of

that image in the camera’s standard image memory.

Note that you cannot delete an image from startup

image memory. You can only replace it with another

image.

Configuring Power Down Image Settings

With the Power Down Image feature, you can configure the

camera so a specific image stored in camera image

memory appears whenever you turn off power. You can

specify a snapshot or a movie as the power down image.

■To configure power down image settings

Use the USB cable to connect the camera to

your computer (page 135).

Move the image data that you want to use for

the power down image to the top (root)

directory of the camera’s built-in Flash

memory.

•The file name extension will not be displayed if your

computer is configured to hide file name extensions.

Example: CIMG0001

•If your power down image is stored on a memory

card, be sure to copy the image to built-in memory

before removing the memory card from the camera.

OTHER SETTINGS

120

IMPORTANT!

•Only a snapshot (JPEG) or movie (AVI) file can be

used as the power down image.

•Note that the Power Down Image feature works only

with images recorded with this camera. The Power

Down Image feature may not operate properly when

another type of image is specified as the power down

image.

•Formatting the camera’s Flash memory deletes the

power down image.

•When both a still image and a movie are present for

the power down image, only the movie is used.

•Note that a power down image display operation

cannot be interrupted once it starts. Because of this,

you should select a relatively short movie when using

a movie file as the power down image.

Change the name of the file to one of the

following.

Snapshot Image: ENDING.JPG

Movie Image: ENDING.AVI

•Input the following file name only (without file name

extension) if your computer is configured to hide file

name extensions.

File Name: ENDING

•Your camera is now configured to display a power

down image. The power down image will appear any

time you press the power button to turn off the

camera. The power down image appears regardless

of whether or not your camera has a memory card

loaded in it.

Formatting Built-in Memory

Formatting built-in memory deletes any data stored in it.

IMPORTANT!

•Note that data deleted by a format operation cannot

be recovered. Check to make sure you do not need

any of the data in memory before you format it.

•Formatting built-in memory deletes all files, including

files in the FAVORITE folder (page 112), protected

files (page 105), Best Shot user setups (page 75),

the startup image (page 118), and the power down

image (page 119).

Check to make sure there is no memory card

loaded in the camera.

USING A MEMORY CARD

129

USING A MEMORY CARD

You can expand the storage

capabilities of your camera by using

a commercially available memory

card (SD memory card or

MultiMediaCard). You can also

copy files from built-in flash

memory to a memory card and from

a memory card to flash memory.

•Normally, files are stored in built-in flash memory. When

you insert a memory card, however, the camera

automatically stores files to the card.

•Note that you cannot save files to built-in memory while a

memory card is installed in the camera.

IMPORTANT!

•Make sure you turn off the camera before inserting or

removing a memory card.

•Be sure to orient the card correctly when inserting it.

Never try to force a memory card into the slot when

you feel resistance.

•See the instructions that come with the memory card

for information about how to use it.

•Certain types of cards can slow down processing

speeds.

•SD memory cards have a write protect switch, which

you can use to protect against accidental deletion of

image data. Note, however, if you write protect an

SD memory card, you must remove write protection

whenever you want to record to it, format it, or delete

any of its files.

USING A MEMORY CARD

131

Formatting a Memory Card

Formatting a memory card deletes any data already stored

on it.

IMPORTANT!

•Be sure to use the camera to format a memory card.

Formatting a memory card on a computer and then

using it in the camera can slow down data

processing by the camera. In the case of an SD card,

formatting on a computer can result in non-

conformity with the SD format, causing problems with

compatibility, operation, etc.

•Note that data deleted by a memory card format

operation cannot be recovered. Check to make sure

you do not need any of the data on the memory card

before you format it.

•Formatting a memory card that contains files deletes

all the files, even those that are protected (page

105).

IMPORTANT!

•Never insert any other object besides a memory card

into the camera’s card slot. Doing so creates the risk

of damage to the camera and card.

•Should water or any foreign object ever get into the

card slot, immediately turn off the camera, remove

the batteries, and contact your dealer or nearest

CASIO authorized service center.

•Never remove a card from the camera while the

operation lamp is flashing. Doing so can cause the

file save operation to fail, and even damage the

memory card.

USING A MEMORY CARD

132

Memory Card Precautions

•Use only an SD memory card or a MultiMediaCard with

this camera. Proper operation is not guaranteed when

any other type of card is used.

•Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other

phenomena can cause data to become corrupted or even

lost. Always make sure that you always back up important

data on other media (MO disc, computer hard disk, etc.).

•If a memory card starts to behave abnormally, you can

restore normal operation by reformatting it. However, we

recommend that you always take along more than one

memory card whenever using the camera far away from

the home or office.

•We recommend that you format a memory card before

using it for the first time after purchasing it, or whenever

the card you are using seems to be the cause of

abnormal images.

•Before starting a format operation, check to make sure

that the batteries are fully charged. Power interruption

during the format operation can result in improper

formatting, and even damage the memory card and make

it unusable.

Using a Memory Card to Transfer Images

to a Computer

The procedures in this section describe how to transfer

images from the camera to your computer using a memory

card.

Using a Computer with a Built-in SD Memory Card Slot

Insert the SD memory card directly into the slot.

Using a Computer with a Built-in PC Card Slot

Use a commercially available PC card adapter (for an SD

memory card/MMC). For full details, see the user

documentation that comes with the PC card adapter and

your computer.

Using a Commercially Available SD Memory Card

Reader/Writer

See the user documentation that comes with the SD

memory card reader/writer for details about how to use it.

Using a Commercially Available PC Card Reader/Writer

and PC Card Adapter (for SD Memory Cards and

MMCs)

See the user documentation that comes with the PC card

reader/writer and PC card adapter (for an SD memory card/

MMC) for details about how to use them.

Memory Data

Images recorded with this camera and other data are

stored in memory using DCF (Design rule for Camera File

System) protocol. DCF protocol is designed to make it

easier to exchange image and other data between digital

cameras and other devices.

DCF Protocol

DCF devices (digital cameras, printers, etc.) can exchange

images with each other. DCF protocol defines camera

format for image file data and the directory structure for file

memory, so images can be viewed using another

manufacturer’s DCF camera or printed on a DCF printer.

Image Files Supported by the Camera

•Image files recorded with the CASIO QV-R40 Digital

Camera

•DCF protocol image files

Certain DCF functions may not be supported. When

displaying an image recorded on another camera model, it

may take a long time for the image to appear on the

display.

Built-in Memory and Memory Card

Precautions

•Note that the folder named “DCIM” is the parent (top)

folder of all the files in memory. When transferring

memory contents to a hard disk, CD-R, MO disk, or other

external storage, treat all the contents inside a DCIM

folder as a set and always keep them together. You can

change the name of the DCIM folder on your computer.

Changing the name to a date is a good way to keep track

of multiple DCIM folders. However, if you even want to

copy the folders back to the camera’s file memory, be

sure you change the name of the DCIM folder back to

“DCIM” first. The camera does not recognize any folder

name other than DCIM.

•We also strongly recommend that after transferring data

from file memory to other external storage that you

reformat the camera’s file memory and delete its contents

before using it to store more files. Remember that

formatting memory deletes all of its contents. Check to

make sure that you no longer need any of the files in

memory before you format it.

Creating an album

In the PLAY mode,

press [] ( ).

Use [] and [] to select “Create”, and then

press [SET].

•This starts creation of the album, and causes the

message “Busy....Please wait...” to appear on the

monitor screen.

•The PLAY mode screen reappears after creation of

the album is complete.

USING THE CAMERA WITH A COMPUTER

The album feature of the camera creates files that make it

possible for you to view images on your computer in a

photo album layout. You can also use the applications

contained on the CD-ROM that comes bundled with the

camera to automate image transfer and to retouch images.

Using the Album Feature

The album feature creates an HTML photo album layout

that displays your images. You can use the HTML layout to

post your images on a Web page, or for printing the

images.

•You can use the Web browser shown below to view or

print the contents of an album. Note that to view a movie

on a computer running Windows 2000 or 98, you need to

install DirectX.

Microsoft Internet Explorer Ver 5.5 or later

•Creating an album causes a file folder named

“ALBUM”, which contains a file named “INDEX.HTM”

plus other files to be created in camera memory or

on the memory card.

IMPORTANT!

•Never open the battery compartment cover or

remove the memory card from the camera while an

album is being created. Doing so not only runs the

risk of certain album files being skipped, it can also

result in image data and other data in memory being

corrupted.

•If memory becomes full while an album is being

created, the message “Memory Full” appears on the

monitor screen and album creation is terminated.

•Album creation will not be performed properly if the

batteries go dead while album creation is in

progress.

•You can also configure the camera to create albums

automatically (page 151). However, performing the

above procedure creates an album regardless of

whether automatic album creation is turned on or off.

Selecting an Album Layout

You can select from among 10 different display layouts for

an album.

In the PLAY mode, press [] ( ).

Use [] and [] to select “Layout”.

Use [] and [] to select the layout you want.

•Changing the layout causes the layout sample on the

right side of the screen to change.

IMPORTANT!

Installing the Software from the CD-ROM

About the bundled CD-ROM

The CD-ROM that comes bundled with the camera

contains the applications described below. Installation of

these applications is optional, and you should install only

the ones you want to use.

USB Driver for Mass Storage (for Windows)

This is the software that makes it possible for the camera

to “talk” to your personal computer over a USB connection.

If you are using Windows XP, do not install the USB driver

from the CD-ROM. With these operating systems, you will

be able to perform USB communication simply by

This application loads image data saved in JPEG and AVI

format from a digital camera to your computer.

Photohands (for Windows)

This application is for retouching and printing image files.

Saving an Album

•To save an album, copy the “DCIM” folder from camera

memory or the memory card to your computer’s hard disk,

a CD-R, an MO disk, or some other storage medium.

Note that copying only the “ALBUM” folder, does not copy

image data and other necessary files.

•After copying the “DCIM” folder, do not change or delete

any of the files inside of it. Adding new images or deleting

existing images may lead to abnormal album display.

•If you plan to use a memory card again after saving its

album, first delete all of its files or format it before loading

it into the camera.

•When you have “WEB” selected for the “Use” setting, the

album shows only the smaller image files stored in the

“ALBUM” folder. Such images can be uploaded to the

Internet more quickly.

Power Supply

•Use only the special HR-3UA rechargeable nickel-metal hydride batteries to

power this camera. Use of any other type of battery is not supported.

•This camera does not have separate batteries for the clock. The date and

time settings of the camera are cleared whenever power is totally cut off

(from both the batteries and AC adaptor). Be sure to reconfigure these

settings after power is interrupted (page 47).

LCD Panel

•The LCD panel is a product of the latest LCD manufacturing technology that

provides a pixel yield of 99.99%. This means that less than 0.01% of the

total pixels are defective (they do not turn on or always remain turned on).

Lens

•You may sometimes notice some distortion in certain types of images, such

as a slight bend in lines that should be straight. This is due to the

characteristics of lens, and does not indicate malfunction of the camera.
