Getting Started Charging the battery Before using the camera for the first time, charge the lithium-ion battery. Place the battery into the included quick charger, and plug the charger into a standard 110- or 220-volt, 50-60 Hz electrical outlet. When taking the camera out of the box, the battery may be partially charged; a fully discharged battery may take four hours or more to charge completely. During charging, the LED on the charger will illuminate. When charging is complete, the LED will turn off. A blinking LED indicates a power or connection problem, such as the battery not being inserted properly. Inserting the charged battery The battery compartment is on the underside of the camera. Hold the camera upside down and slide the thumb-latch to one side to open the door. Insert the charged battery, hold the door fully closed, and slide the latch back to the locked position. Inserting the strap rings To prepare camera for use with a strap, install the included strap anchors. Insert an anchor into the strap point on the top of the camera beside the power button. Turn it 90 degrees to position it. Then place one of the included collars over the strap anchor and press down until it snaps into place. Repeat theses steps for the strap point on the side of the camera, below the port cover. Once strap anchors are installed, attach the strap using the split-rings. Inserting an SD card Open the port cover and insert a SD, SDHC, or SDXC card into the SD card slot. Close the port cover. For optimum performance, format an SD the first time it is use it in the camera (see Settings, page XX).

Powering on (and off) Briefly press the power button to turn the camera on. To power off, press the power button for 3 seconds, then release. Using the set-up assistant The first time the camera is turned on, there is a walk through to set-up the camera, where there is the selection of the language for the camera to use, select time zone, and set the date and time. The camera will then give a very brief overview of its most unique controls and features. Putting the camera to sleep/waking the camera When the camera is on, briefly press the power button to put the camera to sleep and conserve power. To wake the camera, briefly press the power button again.

Capture Mode Each time the camera is powered on, it will start up in Capture Mode. If there’s a compatible SD card in place, and the card is not full, the camera is ready to capture a Living Picture. Compose the shot by looking at the live view displayed on the screen. When ready to capture a picture, press the shutter button all the way down and release. To operate the camera in Capture Mode, use a combination of physical controls and on-screen controls. Physical controls Note that these are the default behaviors of the controls. Many can be customized in Settings (see page XX). • Powerbutton—whenthecameraisoff,abriefpressturnsiton;whenthecameraison,abriefpressputsthecameratosleeporwakesitup,alongpressturnsitoff• Lytrobutton—ahalfpressdisplaysdepthfeedbackfortheobjectatthecenteroftheframe;afullpressdisplaysalivedepthhistogramanddepthoverlay• Shutterbutton—ahalfpressengagesautoexposurelock(AEL);afullpressreleasestheshutter• Frontdial—setstheISO(inISOPriorityMode);setsShutterSpeed(inShutterSpeedPriorityModeandManualMode)• Zoomring—adjuststhefocallengthofthelens• Focusring—adjuststhefocusofthelens• Reardial—setstheEVcompensationinProgram,ISOPriority,andShutterSpeedPriorityModes;setstheISOinManualMode • AFbutton—activatesautofocuswhenpressed,locksautofocuswhilehelddown

The first time a picture is viewed, it will automatically be processed for refocusing. A small progress window will appear over the center of the picture during processing. When the progress window disappears — usually in just a second or two — the picture is ready to be refocused by tapping the screen.

Indicator of a Living Picture being processed Refocusing a Living Picture Once a picture has been processed, refocus it by just tapping the screen. The camera will re-center the focus as closely as possible to the spot tapped. Depending on the composition of the picture, some areas may fall outside the refocusable range — essentially the original depth of field that was in effect when the shot was taken. Refocus a Living Picture by tapping the touchscreen. Using grid view To sort through the Living Pictures on the SD card more quickly, select grid view. Tap the Grid View icon in the Menu Bar at the right-hand edge of the screen. The icon will illuminate, and a thumbnail grid of 12 pictures will replace the single-picture view.

Tap the Grid View icon to display 12 pictures at a time. Swipe the screen from left to right to view older pictures, or from right to left to view newer ones. When the 12 newest pictures are displayed, swiping from right to left will the return the camera to Capture Mode. If any of the thumbnails are tapped, the picture will expand to fill the screen, closing Grid View. Using the review exposure histogram To view an exposure histogram for each picture as it is displayed, tap the histogram icon in the Menu Bar. The icon will illuminate and the histogram will appear in the lower left-hand corner of the screen. To close the histogram, tap the icon again. Deleting a picture To delete the picture currently displayed, tap the Delete icon in the Menu Bar at the right-hand edge of the screen. A window will open with two options: OK or CANCEL. Tap OK to delete the picture.

Opening the Settings menu You can open the Settings menu by tapping the Settings icon in the Menu Bar. The Settings menu will display, closing Playback Mode. For details on each of the available Settings, see the Settings section beginning on page XX. To close the Settings menu, tap CAPTURE at the top left of the screen, or press the shutter button halfway. The camera will always return to Capture Mode when exiting Settings. To get back to Playback Mode, tap the Playback Mode icon in the Menu Bar again, press the Fn button, or swipe the screen from left to right.

Depth composition features The refocusable range The Living Pictures captured with the LYTRO ILLUM can be, just by tapping. This ability to refocus is remarkable, but it does have limits — what we call the refocusable range — for every picture. The refocusable range comprises all the points brought into relatively sharp focus after a picture is captured. The refocusable range is made up of two component ranges: the near refocusable range, which is closer to the camera, and the far refocusable range, which is further away. Each offers a spectrum of relative sharpness, depending on the depth who which the image is refocused. In the illustrations below, the brighter the shade of the blue or yellow band, the sharper objects at that distance will appear when refocused. The brightest band in each component range is its core — where objects will appear sharpest when refocusing. The refocusable range with the lens zoomed to a 50mm focal length (35mm equivalent) and the optical focus at approximately 42cm. Physical distances from the camera are shown in gray. The refocusable range varies widely, depending on the zoom and focus positions of the camera when a picture is captured. Depth Assist Bar The Depth Assist Bar appears as a column near the right edge of the screen. The orange and blue bands within the bar show where the current refocusable range

falls in terms of distances from the camera. The objects within that range are the ones that can be refocused on after the Living Picture is captured. Each of the colored bands represents one slice of the depth within the refocusable range, called Focus Steps. The brighter the color of a Focus Step, the sharper the objects at that distance will appear when it is refocused. In the Depth Assist Bar, the orange and blue bands, or Focus Steps, represent the refocusable range. The numbers indicate the physical distances from the camera. The distances are measured from the sensor plane symbol visible on the right side of the camera’s exterior. While the measurements are mostly accurate, they are not perfect. Think them as useful guide, there to give a good sense of where the refocusable range is located. Optical offset When looking at the live view, the shallow depth of field is due to the f/2.0 main lens. There is often much more in the refocusable range than what appears sharp in the live view. The optical offset plots the optical focus position used in the live view (and for autofocus) to the refocusable range — and can be adjusted to suit the style of Living Picture being captured. When the optical offset is at the default setting, objects at the core of the near refocusable range will appear sharply focused in the live view. This means that a Living Picture can be refocused on whatever looked sharp in the live view when it was taken, as well as on objects somewhat further away, since most of the refocusable range will fall beyond that point.

The default optical offset, with the focus position used for the live view and for autofocus set at the core of the near refocusable range Depending on the style of photography and the subjects being shot, it may be advantageous to relocate the optical offset position. As an example, when shooting landscapes, set the optical offset to the core of the far refocusable range. Then, when composing a shot by focusing on a distant object, most of the refocusable range would be available for closer objects. An adjusted optical offset position that might be used for landscape photography.

To adjust the optical offset, add the Optical Offset icon to the Menu Bar (see Rearrange Menu, page XX) then tap it. The Menu Bar will be hidden, and a depth scale will be displayed. Bands in shades of blue represent the near refocusable range, and bands in shades of orange represent the far refocusable range. The current optical offset position is indicated by a white band (the default position is -4). Rotate the front dial to relocate the optical offset closer or further away in the refocusable range. To close the depth scale, unhide the Menu Bar by swiping left from the right edge of the screen. The optical offset will remain at the new setting until it is changed using these same steps. Spot Depth Feedback Spot Depth Feedback allows to check the distance of the object at the center of the live view. Press the Lytro button halfway to activate it. A light blue band will appear on the Depth Assist Bar, representing the distance of the object from the camera. It is then easy to see if the object falls within the focusable range, indicated by the orange and blue Focus Steps. Activating Spot Depth Feedback does not affect the focus of the camera. Depth Histogram and Depth Overlay The LYTRO ILLUM offers live, interactive depth analysis in the form of the Depth Histogram and Depth Overlay. Both provide feedback on where subjects fall relative to the refocusable range. To activate them, fully press the Lytro button. The Depth Histogram consists of bands extending out to the right of a depth scale. Bands in shades of blue represent the near refocusable range, and bands in shades of orange represent the far refocusable range. The more there is available to refocus on at a given depth, the further the band beside it will extend to the right. Glancing at the histogram can tell if you have a substantial subject within the refocusable range. To maximize the impact of refocusing, it is ideal to have a significant histogram wave in both the near refocusable range and the far refocusable range. Waves outside of the refocusable range correspond to objects in the background or foreground that can not be refocused. The Depth Overlay provides the same kind of information as the Depth Histogram, but displays it as an overlay on objects in the live view. Objects that fall within the near refocusable range are edged with blue. Objects that fall within the far refocusable are edged with orange. Instantly see whether there is enough subject matter in each of the ranges to provide good refocusing possibilities.

Evaluate a potential shot using the Depth Overlay. Objects in the near refocusable range are edged in blue; those in the far refocusable range are edged in orange. Focus bracketing Like the more familiar exposure bracketing, focus bracketing causes the camera to take a series of pictures each time the shutter button is pressed. But instead of varying the exposure between each picture, the camera varies the focus. That means the refocusable range is shifting, too, so there is a better chance of capturing a picture with great possibilities for refocusing. The change in focus between each picture is expressed in Focus Steps. Choose the number of Focus Steps, from 1 to 10, between each picture. One can choose 3 or 5 pictures.

The refocusable range as captured with focus bracketing set to 3 pictures and 1 Focus Step (FS). To use focus bracketing, add it to the Menu Bar (see Rearrange Menu, page XX). Then activate it and set the number of pictures that will be taken and the number of Focus Steps between each picture. For help setting those parameters, see Applying focus bracketing, on page XX.

Settings You can open the Settings menu from either Capture or Playback Mode by tapping the Settings icon in the Menu Bar. The Settings menu will fill the screen, replacing whatever was displayed. Swipe the touchscreen to scroll up or down through the menu. To close the Settings menu, tap CAPTURE at the top left of the screen, or press the shutter button halfway. The camera will always return to Capture Mode when exiting Settings. To return to Playback Mode, tap the Playback Mode icon in the Menu Bar again, press the Fn button, or swipe the screen from left to right. Format SD card For best performance, format your SD card when first using it in the camera, and again after using it in any other device. Please note that formatting the card will erase any data stored on it. To begin, tap FORMAT SD CARD in the Settings menu. A window will open with two options: FORMAT or CANCEL. To continue with formatting, tap FORMAT. When formatting is complete, tap DONE to return to the Settings menu. Brightness Adjust the brightness of the screen by tapping BRIGHTNESS in the Settings menu and dragging the slider. Or slide the AUTO-BRIGHTNESS selector to the ON position, and the camera will automatically adjust the brightness to the lighting conditions. Sounds Tap SOUNDS in the Settings menu, and by dragging the slider, adjust the volume of the sounds produced by the camera. Turn off either all sounds or just the touch sounds by sliding the appropriate selector to the OFF position. Exposure simulation The live view can be set to simulate the exposure that will result if a Living Picture is captured using the current settings. To activate exposure simulation, open the Settings menu, look for EXPOSURE SIMULATION, and slide the selector to the AUTO position.  Clipping warning When clipping warning is turned on, pulsing stripes will indicate any areas of the Live View that will be overexposed if a Living Picture is captured using the

current settings. To activate clipping warning, open the Settings menu, look for CLIPPING WARNING, and slide the selector to the ON position. Instant preview Set the duration of the instant preview from 1 to 15 seconds or turn instant preview off. Open the Settings menu, and tap INSTANT PREVIEW. Swipe up to see additional duration options. Tap on a selection to set the duration. A half press of the shutter button dismisses the preview and immediately restores the live view. File format You can select which file format the camera records in, Lytro RAW or Lytro XRAW. Tap FILE FORMAT in the Settings menu, then tap on your selection. Lytro RAW files contain the raw light field picture data and can only be viewed on the camera or on a computer running a copy of Lytro Desktop that has been paired with the camera. Lytro XRAW files contain the raw light field picture data as well as the pairing data required to properly process the light field. Lytro XRAW can viewed using any copy of Lytro Desktop, but is a much larger file. iOS Connect To connect your iOS device to the LYTRO ILLUM over Wi-Fi, open the Settings menu and tap iOS CONNECT. Set ACCESS POINT to ON. On your iOS device, go to Settings, Wi-Fi. Make sure Wi-Fi is activated. Under CHOOSE A NETWORK, tap OTHER. Enter the network name as displayed on the camera (be sure to use uppercase and lowercase letters exactly as shown). Select WPA security, and enter the password as displayed on the camera. If the iOS device is within range, it should connect to the camera’s network. Long exposure noise reduction Activate this feature to reduce noise in Living Pictures taken with long exposure times. Look for LONG EXPOSURE NOISE REDUCTION in the Settings menu and slide the selector to the ON position. Then, whenever a long exposure time is selected (either manually or automatically), the camera will take a second picture using the same settings, but with the shutter closed — recording only noise. Because the noise recorded in the two pictures will be identical, the camera can use the second picture to identify the noise and suppress it in the picture.
