However, the duration for using batteries varies inaccordance with the battery manufacturer or the photographic conditions.When the camera is not used, turn off the camera power.Do not recharge the non rechargeable batteries. It may cause an explosion.Please remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for long periods.Batteries can lose power over time and are prone to leaking if kept inside the camera.We recommend high capacity ALKALINE batteries as manganese batteries cannotdeliver sufficient power.Low temperatures (below 0 ) can affect the performance of the batteries and youmay experience reduced battery life.Batteries will usually recover at normal temperatures.Do not use old and new batteries at the same time.During extended use of the camera, the camera body may become warm. This is perfectly normal.Always turn off the power before taking the AC adapter out of the mains supply.As with all mains powered devices, safety is important. Ensure that neither the cameranor adapter comes into contact with water or metallic materials.Please ensure that you use an AC adapter (3.3V 2.0A) with the correct specificationfor the camera. Failure to do so may affect your warranty.INFORMATIONDANGERIf you have access to a mains supply, using an ACAdapter (3.3V 2.0A) allows the camera to be used forlong periods of time.Plug the adapter into the connection point (DC IN 3.3V) on the camera.Remove the batteries from the camera when using anAC adapter.Using the AC power adapter (3.3V 2.0A)

17Instructions on how to use the memory cardBe sure to format the memory card (see p. 59) if you are using a newly purchased memoryfor the first time, if it contains data that the camera cannot recognize, or if it contains imagescaptured with a different camera.Turn off the camera power whenever the memory card is being inserted or removed.Repeated use of the memory card will eventually reduce the memory card’s performance.Should this be the case, you will need to purchase a new memory card. Wear and tear on the memory card is not covered by the Samsung warranty.The memory card is an electronic precision device. Do not bend, drop or subject the memory card to any heavy impact.Do not store the memory card in an environment with strong electronic or magnetic fields,e.g. near loud speakers or TV receivers.Please do not use or store in an environment where there are extremes in temperature.Do not allow the memory card to become dirty or to come into contact with any liquid. Should this happen, clean the memory card with a soft cloth.Please keep the memory card in its case when not in use.During and after periods of extended use, you may notice that the memory card is warm. This is perfectly normal.Do not use a memory card that is used in another digital camera or memory card reader.Do not use a memory card formatted by another digital camera or memory card reader.Maintenance of the memory cardIf the memory card is subjected to any of the following, the recorded data may becomecorrupted :- When the memory card is used incorrectly.- If the power is switched off or the memory card is removed while recording, deleting(formatting) or reading.Samsung cannot be held responsible for lost data.It is advisable to copy important data onto other media as back-up e.g. floppy disks, harddisks, CD etc.If there is insufficient memory available :If you press the shutter button for the shot, a [CARDFULL !] message will appear and the camera will not operate. To optimize the amount ofmemory in the camera, replace the memory card or delete unnecessary images stored onthe memory.Preserving the memory card data
18Precautions on Using the Memory Stick DuoIf you open the battery chamber cover when the camera power is turned on, thepower will turn off automatically.Don t remove the memory card when the Auto focus lamp(Green) is blinking as thismay cause damage to data in the memory card.INFORMATION[ SD(Secure Digital) memory card ]Write protectswitchLabelCard pinsRecorded image size Super fine Fine Normal2272x17042048x1536 1600x12001024x768640x480The camera can use SD Memory Cards, MMC (Multi Media Card), and Memory Stick Duo.Please consult the enclosed manual for using the MMC and Memory Stick Duo.The SD memory card has a write protectswitch that prevents image files from beingdeleted or formatted.By sliding the switch to the bottom of the SDmemory card, the data will be protected.

25Things to Watch Out for When Taking PicturesPressing the shutter button down half way Lightly press the shutter button to confirm focus and flash battery charge. (See page 20)Press the shutter button all way down to take the picture.The available recording time may vary depending on shooting conditions and camerasettings.When the Flash Off or Slow synchro mode is selected in a low lighting condition, the camerashake warning indicator ( ) may appear on the LCD monitor. In this case, use a tripod,support the camera on a solid surface or change the flash mode to flash shot mode.Backlight compensated shots : When taking an outdoor shot, avoid facing the sun, as theimage may be dark because of the strong backlight. In backlight conditions, please use Fill-in flash(p.28), Spotmetering(p.37) or Exposure compensation(p.30).Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.As there can be some differences between what is seen through the Viewfinder and theresulting image when taken at a range closer than 1.5m, it is recommended that you use theLCD monitor to compose these shots.Using the LCD monitor extensively will drain the batteries. We recommend turning off the LCD monitor and using the optical viewfinder as often aspossible in order to extend battery life.Under certain conditions the auto focus system may not perform as expected.When photographing a subject that has little contrast.- If the subject is highly reflective or shiny.- If the subject is moving at high speed.- When there is strong reflected light, or when the background is very bright.- When the subject matter has only horizontal lines or the subject is very narrow (such as a stick or flagpole).- When the surroundings are dark.
