Wireless Transfer and Printing
Using the camera’s built-in IEEE 802.11b/g wireless transmitter, you can:
• Transmit pictures to a computer for storage and editing ( 00–00)
• Save pictures directly to the computer hard disk as they are taken ( 00)
• Print pictures on a printer connected to a wireless network ( 00)
To prevent the camera from turning off unexpectedly during transmission, use the
supplied AC adapter.
Connecting to a Wireless Network
Wireless transfer and printing requires a wireless local-area network (LAN) compatible with the IEEE 802.11b/g standard. The network can consist of the camera in
peer-to-peer communication with a single computer equipped with a wireless LAN
adapter (ad-hoc mode) or of a camera connected to a wireless network via a wireless LAN access point (infrastructure mode).

Wireless Transfer and Printing
Wireless transfer is available with computers running Windows XP Home Edition/
Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1 or later (Service Pack 2 or later recommended) or Mac OS X version 10.3 or later. To configure the camera for use with
the wireless network, you will also need the Wireless Camera Setup Utility, which is
installed with Picture Project; see the Quick Start Guide and the PictureProject Reference Manual (on CD) for installation instructions.

Best Shot Selector (BSS)
BSS is recommended for situations in which inadvertent camera movement can

Option

Camera takes shots while shutter-release button is pressed, to a maximum
of ten. These images are then compared and sharpest picture (picture
On
with highest level of detail) is saved. Flash turns off automatically and
focus, exposure, and white balance for all photos are determined by first
picture in each series.
Selecting this option displays sub-menu shown at
right. Choose from:
• Highlight BSS: picture with smallest area of overexposure is selected.
• Shadow BSS: picture with smallest area of underexposure is selected.
Exposure
• Histogram BSS: of pictures with least under- and over-exposure, camBSS
era chooses picture with overall exposure closest to optimum.
Camera takes five shots each time shutter-release button is pressed, but
only picture that best meets selected criterion is saved. Flash turns off
automatically and focus and white balance for all photos are determined
by first picture in each series. Recommended for high-contrast subjects,
when it is difficult to set exposure correctly.
At settings other than Off, the current BSS setting appears in the display (
6–7).
The current ISO sensitivity is displayed in the monitor at settings other than Auto
( 6–7). If Auto is selected, an ISO icon will be displayed when sensitivity is raised
above ISO 50 equivalent.
79
The Shooting Menu
ISO Sensitivity
ISO sensitivity is a measure of how quickly the camera reacts to light. The higher
the sensitivity, the less light needed to make an exposure. Much as film with a high
ISO rating tends to produce “grainy” images, high sensitivities may however be associated with “noise”—randomly spaced, brightly colored pixels concentrated in
dark parts of the image. Choose from values between ISO 50 and 400 equivalent.
Auto is equivalent to ISO 50 under normal conditions; when lighting is poor and
the flash is off, the camera compensates by raising ISO sensitivity to a maximum of
ISO 200 equivalent.
