The camera takes about a second to focus when you press the shutter button half way down. After the camera has focused, be sure to push the shutter button all the way down until you hear the shutter click, indicating the photo has been taken. • Avoid having the sun directly overhead or behind your subject. The best photos are taken with the sun to your back or side. If the sun is behind your subject, use the Fill Flash setting, see “Using the Flash” on page 19. • Keep the subject within the flash range, 2 feet to 8 feet (.6m to 2.5m), if there is low light. • Avoid taking flash photos in front of reflective objects like mirrors or glass to prevent hot spots in your photos. • Clean the lens and LCD screens occasionally with a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use cleaning solutions or chemically treated tissues. • Although the HP PhotoSmart 215 digital camera has an electronic Auto Focus system, some conditions may cause the camera to focus improperly. Some examples are in the following table. www.hp.com/photosmart 15 Subject Examples Black or very dark objects Dark clothing Objects that have no distinct or consistent form Fountains, waterfalls, waves, smoke, flame, fireworks, a subject in mist or fog Glossy and reflective surfaces Glass, mirrors, automobiles Multiple or flickering light sources Neon signs, fluorescent lamps, television images, sun rays through trees Rapidly moving objects Baseballs, hummingbirds, race cars Non-solid objects Wire netting or fencing, latticework Conditions involving low-light Sunsets, candlelight To take a photo of these types of subjects, focus on something near your subject and press the shutter button half way down. When the green light appears, reaim your camera at your intended subject and press the shutter button all the way down. You can also try a different angle or change the lighting on your subject. 16 hp photosmart 215 digital camera user’s guide Chapter 3: Adjusting the Camera Settings The HP PhotoSmart 215 digital camera has default settings that take great photos in most indoor and outdoor locations. To adjust the camera settings, use the Capture menu on the image LCD. Changing the Photo Quality Adjusting the photo quality setting changes the quality of the photo and determines how many photos can be stored on the CompactFlash memory card. To store the most photos, set the photo quality to basic. You can use different photo quality settings for different photos on the same memory card. The current photo quality setting is indicated by an icon on the status LCD. Basic The most memory-efficient photo quality setting. Use this setting for photos you plan to send via email, place on the Internet, use for screen savers or wallpaper, or print up to 3x5 inches (7.6x12.7mm). Fine Produces high-quality photos and requires less memory than Super Fine. Use this setting for photos you plan to store on your disk or in a database, or print up to 5x7 inch (12.7x17.8mm) prints. This is the default setting. Super Fine Produces the highest-quality photos and uses the most memory per picture. Use this setting for taking photos you plan to enlarge. www.hp.com/photosmart 17 Note: Because photo quality affects the number of photos that can be stored on a memory card, the number of available photos changes as you change the photo quality.

Once a photo is taken, it is stored on the memory card until you delete it or the card is formatted. Use only CompactFlash Association (CFA) certified type I memory cards with the HP PhotoSmart 215 digital camera. These cards are manufactured by several vendors and are available in a variety of capacities. Hewlett-Packard does not support the use of non-certified memory cards. For information on supported CompactFlash memory cards, go to the HP PhotoSmart Web site, www.hp.com/photosmart, and click “Technical Support”. To purchase a new CompactFlash memory card, go to www.hpshopping.com (selected countries/ regions) or your local computer store. Installing and Removing Memory Cards Before you install a new CompactFlash memory card, make sure it is compatible with the HP PhotoSmart 215 digital camera. www.hp.com/photosmart 37 To remove a memory card: Caution: Before you remove a memory card from the camera, turn the camera off and wait for the status LCD to go blank. If the camera is saving a photo, wait until the photo has been saved before removing the CompactFlash memory card. 1. Attach the clip on the wrist strap to the memory card.

Determining if a Memory Card is Full A CompactFlash memory card is full when the camera’s status LCD indicates there are zero photos available to be taken and the CompactFlash memory card icon blinks. The photo quality setting determines the number of photos the memory card can hold. To increase the amount of photos you can store on the memory card, reduce the photo quality setting. See “Changing the Photo Quality” on page 17. www.hp.com/photosmart 39 Formatting a Memory Card Most CompactFlash memory cards are already formatted when you buy them. However, if you buy a memory card that has not been formatted, you need to format it before you can use it in the camera. If you insert a new, formatted card in the camera and it doesn’t work, try re-formatting it—it may have been formatted improperly. Also re-format cards that you previously used in a different camera, to optimize them for use with the HP PhotoSmart 215 digital camera.
