The flash fires automatically as required by the photography conditions. The flash fires a pre-flash just before the picture is taken and then fires again to take the actual picture. Use this mode to photograph backlit scenes, such as a subject against a window or in the shade of a tree, or to obtain the correct colors when you are shooting under lighting such as fluorescent tubes. In this mode, the flash fires in bright as well as dark conditions. 3 ◆ Red-Eye Effect ◆ When you use the flash to photograph people in low-light conditions, their eyes sometimes appear red in the picture. This is caused by the light of the flash reflecting off the inside of the eye. Use Red-Eye Reduction flash to effectively minimize the likelihood of the red-eye effect. Take the following measures also to make Red-Eye Reduction more effective : ● Get the subjects to look at the camera. ● Get as close as possible to the subjects. 39 PHOTOGRAPHY MENU y FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY MENU 5 MACRO (CLOSE-UP) PHOTOGRAPHY Selecting Macro mode specifies the following camera settings: h The lens is fixed to the wide-angle zoom setting and only digital zooming is available. h Switching the camera off cancels Macro mode. u Suppressed Flash 40 ; Slow Synchro Use this mode for photography using indoor lighting, for shots taken through glass, and for photography in venues such as theaters or at indoor sporting events where the distance is too great for the flash to be effective.

In this event, remove the SmartMedia and wait a short time before using it again. ■ When the Camera is Unused for Long Periods If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period, of time remove the batteries and the SmartMedia card before storing the camera. ■ Cleaning Your Camera h Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens, LCD monitor screen or viewfinder as these surfaces, and then wipe lightly with a soft, dry cloth. If any soiling remains, apply a small amount of lens cleaning liquid to a piece of FUJIFILM lens cleaning paper and wipe gently. h Do not scratch hard objects against the lens, LCD monitor screen or viewfinder as these surfaces are easily damaged. h Clean the body of the camera with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use volatile substances such as thinners, benzine or insecticide, as these may react with camera body and cause deformation or remove the coating. ■ Using the Camera Overseas When travelling overseas, do not place your camera in the check-in baggage. Baggage handling at airports may subject baggage to violent shocks, and the camera may be damaged internally even when no external damage is visible. 77 Notes on the Power Supply Applicable Batteries h AA-size alkaline, Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride) can be used with this camera. Do not use AA-size manganese, lithium batteries in your FinePix2800 ZOOM because the heat generated by the batteries could damage the camera or cause malfunctions. h The operating lives of alkaline batteries vary between brands and the life of batteries you purchase may be shorter than the alkaline batteries provided with the camera. Notes on the Batteries 78 Incorrect use of the batteries could cause them to leak, become hot, ignite or burst. Always observe the precautions given below. h Do not heat the batteries or throw them into a fire. h Do not carry or store the batteries with metal objects such as necklaces or hairpins that could come into contact with the metal positive = and negative - poles of the battery. h Do not expose the batteries to fresh or sea water, and take particular care to keep the terminals dry. h Do not attempt to deform, disassemble or modify the batteries. h Do not attempt to peel off or cut the battery casing. h Do not drop, strike or otherwise subject the batteries to strong impacts. h Do not use the batteries that are leaking, deformed, discolored or exhibit any other obvious abnormality. h Do not store the batteries in very warm or moist locations. h Keep the batteries out of reach of infant and young children. h When loading the batteries into the camera, ensure that the battery polarity (= and - ) is as indicated on the camera. h Do not use new batteries together with used batteries. In the case of rechargeable batteries, do not use charged and discharged batteries together. Do not use batteries of different types or brands together. h If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period of time, remove the batteries from the camera. (Note that if the camera is left with the batteries removed, the time and date settings are cleared.) h The batteries may feel warm immediately after being used. Before removing the batteries, switch the camera off and wait until the batteries cool down. h When replacing the batteries, always fit 4 new batteries. Here, 'new batteries' refers to either recently purchased unused alkaline batteries, or Ni-MH (nickel metal hydride) batteries that have recently been fully recharged together. h In cold locations (at temperatures of +10°C/+50°F or below), battery performance deteriorates and the time for which they can be used shortens markedly. This is particularly true of alkaline batteries. In cold conditions, put the batteries in your pocket or a similar place to warm them before loading them into the camera. If you use a body warmer to warm the batteries, ensure that they are not in direct contact with the warmer. h Soil (such as fingerprints) on the battery terminals can markedly reduce the number of available shots. Carefully wipe the battery terminals clean with a soft dry cloth before loading the batteries. If any liquid at all leaks from the batteries, wipe the battery compartment thoroughly and then load new batteries. If any battery fluid comes into contact with your hands or clothing, flush the area thoroughly with water. Note that battery fluid can cause loss of eyesight if it gets into your eyes. If this occurs, do not rub your eyes. Flush the fluid out with clean water and contact your physician for treatment. ■ Disposing of Batteries When disposing of batteries, do so in accordance with your local waste disposal regulations. ■ Notes on Small Rechargeable Batteries (Ni-MH batteries) h Always use the special battery charger to charge AA-size Ni-MH batteries. Charge the batteries as described in the instructions provided with the battery charger. h Do not use the battery charger to charge batteries other than those specified for use with the charger. h Note that the batteries may feel warm immediately after being charged. h Ni-MH batteries are not charged at shipment. Be sure to charge the batteries before using them. h The camera mechanism is such that it draws a minute amount of current even when the camera is switched off. Take particular care not to leave Ni-MH batteries in the camera for a long period of time as they can become excessively discharged and may no longer be usable even when charged. h Ni-MH batteries self-discharge even when not used. Always charge Ni-MH batteries before using them. If the time for which a battery provides power shortens markedly when it has been correctly charged, this indicates that the battery has reached the end of its effective life and should be replaced. h Soiling (fingerprints, etc) on the terminals of Ni-MH batteries can greatly reduce the number of available shots. When this occurs, clean the terminals carefully with a soft dry cloth. Then use up the remaining charge in the batteries and recharge them. h Newly purchased batteries or batteries that have been left unused for an extended period may not be fully charged. (This is indicated by the immediate display of the battery low warning or a low number of available shots.) This is a normal characteristic of the batteries and does not indicate a fault. Repeatedly charging and using the batteries 3 or 4 times will restore them to a normal condition. h If you repeatedly charge a Ni-MH battery before it is fully discharged, it will suffer from the "memory effect"*, causing the battery low warning to appear while there is still ample charge remaining in the battery. To restore the batteries to their normal condition, use up all the charge in the batteries before recharging them. ✽ Memory effect: A phenomenon affecting the battery characteristics such that the apparent battery capacity decreases. 79 Notes on the Power Supply Notes on Using the AC Power Adapter Always use the AC-5VH/AC-5VHS AC Power Adapter with the FinePix2800 ZOOM Camera. The use of an AC power adapter other than the AC-5VH/ AC-5VHS could result in damage to your FinePix2800 ZOOM Digital Camera. h This AC power adapter is designed exclusively for indoor use. h Plug the connection cord plug securely into the DC input terminal of the FUJIFILM Digital camera. h Turn off the power switch of the FUJIFILM Digital camera before disconnecting the connection cord from the FUJIFILM Digital camera’s DC input terminal. To disconnect, take hold of the plug and pull it out (do not disconnect it by pulling on the cord). h Do not use this AC power adapter with any device except the specified device. h During use, this AC power adapter will become hot to touch, but this is normal. h Do not disassemble the AC power adapter. Doing so could be dangerous. h Do not use this device in a place with high temperature and high humidity. h Do not drop or subject this device to strong shocks. h This device may emit a humming noise, but this is normal. h If used near a radio, this device may cause static, so play the radio in a distant place. 80 Notes on the SmartMedia™ ■SmartMedia The SmartMedia card supplied with your FinePix2800 ZOOM camera is a new image recording medium developed especially for use in digital cameras. Each SmartMedia card contains a built-in semiconductor memory chip (NAND flash memory) which is used for storing digital image data. Because the data is stored electronically, the stored image data can be erased from the card and new data recorded. ■SmartMedia with IDs The SmartMedia ID is a SmartMedia that has an individually assigned identification number. SmartMedia ID cards can be used with devices that use ID numbers for copyright protection or other purposes. This camera accepts SmartMedia ID cards in the same way as conventional SmartMedia cards. ■Storing Data In the situations listed below, recorded data may be erased (destroyed). Please note that Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd. accepts no responsibility whatsoever for the loss (destruction) of recorded data. ✽ When the SmartMedia is used incorrectly by the owner or a third party ✽ When the SmartMedia is exposed to static electricity or electrical noise ✽ When the SmartMedia cover is opened or the SmartMedia removed, or when the camera is switched off during data recording, during data erasing/formatting, or during frame advance when images are being played back. Back up important data onto another medium. (MO disk, floppy disk, hard disk, etc.) ■Notes on Handling SmartMedia h Take care to hold the SmartMedia straight when you load it into your camera. h Never remove the SmartMedia or switch the camera off during data recording, during data erasing (SmartMedia formatting) or during frame advance when images are being played back. These actions could result in damage to the SmartMedia. h Use only the SmartMedia specified for use with the FinePix2800 ZOOM. The use of other SmartMedia could damage the camera. h SmartMedia are precision electronic devices. Do not bend, drop, or subject SmartMedia to excessive shocks. h Do not use or store SmartMedia in environments likely to be affected by strong static electricity or electrical noise. h Do not use or store SmartMedia in very hot, humid or corrosive environments. h Take care not to touch the SmartMedia’s contact area or allow the area to become soiled. Use a dry lint-free cloth to wipe away any soiling that does occur. h To avoid damage caused by static electricity, always use the special static-free case provided during transportation or storage, or keep the SmartMedia in a storage case if available. 81 Warning Displays Notes on the SmartMedia™ h Do not carry SmartMedia in locations such as a trouser pocket. This could subject the SmartMedia to excessive force when you sit down, thereby damaging the SmartMedia. h The SmartMedia may feel warm when it is removed from the camera after extended periods of picture taking or image viewing. This is normal and does not indicate a fault. h Inserting a SmartMedia that is charged with static electricity into your camera may result in a camera malfunction. If this occurs, switch the camera off and then on again. h Affix the label onto the designated area of the card. Do not use third-party labels as this can lead to problems when the card is inserted or removed. h When you attach the label, take care that it does not cover any of the write-protect area. ■Notes on Using SmartMedia with a PC 82 h If you intend to take photos using a SmartMedia that has been used on a PC, format the SmartMedia on your camera. h When you format a SmartMedia in the camera and then shoot and record images, a directory (folder) is automatically created. Image data is then recorded in this directory. h Do not change or delete the directory (folder) names or file names on the SmartMedia from your PC as this will make it impossible to use the SmartMedia in your camera. h Always use the camera to erase image data on a SmartMedia. h To edit image data, copy the image data to the PC’s hard disk and then edit the copied data. Be sure to use your PC’s disk eject function (right-click the removable disk icon in the “My Computer” window and then click “Eject”) when you eject a SmartMedia from the PC card reader or PC card adapter. When you are using a USB connection, you should also select and left-click the eject button for “USB disc/mass storage” in the taskbar. If you do not use the correct eject procedure, the SmartMedia may be damaged due to writebehind caching. ■Specifications Type Image memory card for digital cameras (SmartMedia) Operating voltage 3.3V Conditions for use Temperature: 0°C to +40°C (+32°F to +104°F) Humidity: 80% or less (no condensation) Dimensions 37 mm × 45 mm × 0.76 mm (1.45 in. × 1.77 in. × 0.03 in.)

EV: A number that denotes exposure. The EV is determined by the brightness of the subject and sensitivity (speed) of the film or CCD. The number is larger for bright subjects and smaller for dark subjects. As the brightness of the subject changes, a digital camera maintains the amount of light hitting the CCD at a constant level by adjusting the aperture and shutter speed. When the amount of light striking the CCD doubles, the EV increases by 1. Likewise, when the light is halved, the EV decreases by 1. JPEG: Joint Photographics Experts Group A file format used for compressing and saving color images. The compression ratio can be selected, but the higher the compression ratio, the poorer the quality of the expanded image. Motion JPEG: A type of AVI (Audio Video Interleave) file format that handles images and sound as a single file. Images in the file are recorded in JPEG format. Motion JPEG can be played back by QuickTime 3.0 or later. PC Card: A generic term for cards that meet the PC Card Standard. PC Card Standard: A standard for PC cards determined by the PCMCIA. PCMCIA: Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (US). White Balance: Whatever the kind of the light, the human eye adapts to it so that a white object still looks white. On the other hand, devices such as digital cameras see a white subject as white by first adjusting the color balance to suit the color of the ambient light around the subject. This adjustment is called matching the white balance. A function that automatically matches the white balance is called an Automatic White Balance function. 89 Specifications System h Model: Digital Camera FinePix2800 ZOOM h Number of effective pixels: 2.0 million pixels h CCD sensor 1/2.7-inch square pixel CCD with RGB Filter Number of total pixels: 2.1 million pixels h Number of recorded pixels 1600 × 1200 pixels / 1280 × 960 pixels / 640 × 480 pixels h File format Still image: JPEG (Exif Ver. 2.1), DPOF-compatible Movie: AVI format, Motion JPEG ✽Design rule for Camera File system Complian h Viewfinder 0.55 inch 110,000 pixels electronic viewfinder h Lens Fujinon 6× optical zoom lens F2.8/ F4.8/ F8.2 h Storage media SmartMedia (3.3V) h Focus distance f=6 – 36 mm (equivalent to 38 – 228 mm on a 35 mm camera) 90 h Exposure control 64 zones TTL metering, Program AE (exposure compensation available in Manual mode) h Sensitivity Equivalent to ISO 100 h White balance Auto (7 positions selectable in Manual mode) h Focal range Normal: Approx. 80 cm/ 2.6 ft. to infinity Macro: Approx. 10 cm – 80 cm/3.9 in. – 31.5 in. h Shutter speeds Variable-speed, 1/ 2 sec. to 1/ 1500 sec.
