Care to be Taken During Handling
Do not clean the product with organic solvents such as thinner or alcohol benzene.
Places of high temperature and humidity should be avoided. Particular care should
be taken regarding vehicles, which can become very hot inside.
Storing the camera where pesticides and chemicals are handled should be avoided.
Remove from case and store in a well-ventilated place to prevent the camera from
becoming moldy during storage.
Do not use the camera where it may come in contact with rain, water or any other liq-
uid, because the camera is not weather, water, or liquid resistant. Should the camera
get wet from rain, splashing water, or any other liquid, wipe it off immediately with a
dry soft cloth.
Ensure that the camera is not subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks or pressure.
Place the camera on a cushion for protection when the camera is subjected to the
vibrations of a motorbike, car, or ship, etc.
The liquid crystal display will become black at temperatures of approximately 60°C
(140°F) but will return to normal when normal temperatures are returned to.
The response speed of the liquid crystal display becomes slow at low temperatures.
This is due to the properties of the liquid crystal and is not a fault.
Remove dust from the lens and viewfinder using a blower or clean off dust using a lens brush.
Periodic checks are recommended every 1 to 2 years in order to maintain high-performance.
When the camera has not been used for a long time, confirm that it is still working
properly, particularly prior to taking important pictures (such as at a wedding or dur-
ing travelling). Pentax is not responsible for consequential damages (costs incurred
as a result of taking pictures, loss of benefits that were to be obtained through taking
pictures) arising from failure of this product.
If the camera is subjected to rapid temperature changes, condensation may form on
the inside and outside of the camera. Therefore put the camera in a bag or plastic
bag, and take the camera out when the difference in temperature has subsided.
The temperature range in which the camera can be used is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to
104°F).
Avoid contact with garbage, dirt, sand, dust, water, toxic gases, salt, etc. as this may
cause damage to the camera. If rain or drops of water get onto the camera, please
wipe dry.
Please refer to “Precautions When Using a CF Card” (p.15) regarding the
CompactFlash (CF) card.
Be sure to use the D-LI2 rechargeable lithium ion battery provided for this camera. If
you use any other battery the camera may be damaged or malfunction.
To users of this camera
There is a possibility that recorded data may be erased or that the camera may not
function correctly when used in surroundings such as installations generating strong
electromagnetic radiation or magnetic fields.
The liquid crystal panel used in the LCD display is manufactured using extremely
high precision technology. Although the level of functioning pixels is 99.99% or bet-
ter, you should be aware that 0.01% or fewer of the pixels may not illuminate or may
illuminate when they should not. However, this has no effect on the recorded image.

Precautions When Using a CF Card
Make sure that the camera is turned off before opening the CF card cover.
Care should be taken if you remove the CF card immediately after using the
camera, as the card may be hot.
Do not open the CF card cover or turn the camera off while data is being
recorded on the card or transferred to another device as this may cause the
data to be lost or the card to be damaged.
Do not bend the CF card or subject it to violent impact. Keep it away from water
and store away from high temperature.
Be sure to format unused CF cards or CF cards that have been used on another
camera. Refer to “Formatting” (p.112) for instructions on formatting.
Never open the CF card cover during formatting as this may cause the card to
be damaged and become unusable.
Data recorded on a CF card with the Optio 430RS/330RS cannot be played back
accurately on the Optio 430/330/230. Similarly, data recorded with the Optio 230
cannot be played back accurately on the Optio 430RS/330RS.
The data on the CF card may be erased in the following circumstances. Pentax
does not accept any liability for data that is erased
when the CF card is mishandled by the user.
when the CF card is exposed to static electricity or electrical interference.
when the card has not been used for a long time.
when the card is ejected, the AC adapter is disconnected or the battery is
removed while the data on the card is being accessed (when the status lamp
and flash lamp are blinking green and red).
The CF card has a limited service life. If it is not used for a long time, the data
on the card may become unreadable. Be sure to make a backup of important
data on a PC.
Avoid using or storing the card where it may be exposed to static electricity or
electrical interference.
Avoid using or storing the card in direct sunlight or where it may be exposed to
rapid changes in temperature or to condensation.
Installing or removing the CF Card
Captured images are recorded on the CompactFlash (CF) card.
Make sure that the camera is turned off before inserting or remov-
ing the CF card (optional). When no card is inserted, the images
are recorded in the camera’s built-in memory (11MB).
Installing the Card
zOpen the CF card cover.
xOrient the card with the surface of the card having the
symbol facing towards the lens and with the
pin-connector edge of the card towards the slot and
insert fully.
cClose the CF card cover.
Removing the Card

Viewing images on a PC
You only need to install the USB driver the first time. After that,
you can view recorded images and edit them on the PC just by
connecting the camera to the PC with the USB cable and
downloading the images. Or you can remove the CF card from
the camera and transfer the data to your PC using a card
reader. If you use a laptop computer, you can transfer the
image data by fitting the CF card into the card adapter and
inserting the card adapter into the card slot.
Viewing Images with Windows PC p.87
Viewing Images with Macintosh p.102
Printing images by a printing service
Prints of images recorded on the CF card can be ordered in
the same way as with conventional photographs by taking the
CF card to a store that performs printing.
The number of prints can be specified and dates can be includ-
ed in the prints if DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) is set before
taking the CF card to a store that performs DPOF printing.
Setting the Printing Service p.84
How to Use the CF Card
When the CF card is inserted into the camera, images taken
are recorded on the card. You can view the images recorded
on the card on the camera itself, transfer them to your PC and
print them out.
Viewing images on the camera
One of the advantages of a digital camera is that it enables
you to view your pictures immediately after you have taken
them. You can check the composition and brightness and take
the picture again if you are not satisfied.

Taking Pictures
Viewing 3D pictures by the parallel method and cross
method
As our eyes are positioned about 6~7cm apart, there is a very
slight deviation between what we see with our right eye and what
we see with our left eye. The difference is processed by our brain
to produce a three-dimensional image. This principle is applied to
taking and viewing 3D pictures.
3D pictures can be viewed by the parallel method where the left
and right lines of vision are virtually parallel, as when looking at a
distant scene, or the cross method where the left and right lines of
vision are crossed, as when you cross your eyes. A certain
amount of practice may be necessary to view 3D pictures without
using the viewer.
How to Assemble the 3D Image Viewer
Assemble the 3D image viewer supplied with the camera as
shown below.
The image of the first picture is dis-
played to the left half screen of the
LCD monitor, and the right half
screen is for taking the second pic-
ture.
mMove the camera to the right without changing your
stance.
,Take the second picture while watching the capture
guide.
Hold the camera so that the subject is in the center of the
right half screen, and press the shutter release button.
.Press the Playback/OK button.
The first and second images are
displayed to the left and right
screens respectively.
To cancel the 3D Image mode, change the 3D Image mode to
another Capture mode.
A clear three-dimensional effect will not be achieved if the two
images are taken in widely different positions (heights) or are
not straight. When taking a person, you are recommended to
ask your model to stay as still as possible and to take the sec-
ond picture as quickly as you can. It is easier to take the pic-
tures if you use a tripod or appropriate base.
As a guide, the camera should be moved about 1/40 of the dis-
tance between the camera and the subject. For example, if the
subject is 3m away, the distance the camera should be moved
will be 3m ÷40=7.5cm.
However, as the way people see three-dimensional images dif-
fers from person to person, there is no need to be too con-
cerned. Refer to the table below for a simple guide to how far to
move the camera.
Distance to subject 0.1 m 0.3 m 0.5 m 1 m 3 m 5m
Camera movement 0.5 cm 1 cm 1.5 cm 2.5 cm 7.5 cm 13 cm

Example of a 3D pictureHow to view 3D pictures using the 3D image viewer
Print out the pictures so that they are about 11cm or 12cm wide
and place the divider of the 3D image viewer in the middle of the
two.
Transfer the images with a PC or Macintosh p.87 or p.102
As the distance between the left and right eyes differs from person
to person, some people may have difficulty obtaining a three-
dimensional effect even when looking at prints that are the same
size. It may be especially difficult if the pictures are very large or
very small. Try different sizes until the right effect is achieved.
Never look at the sun through the 3D image viewer.
Do not leave the 3D image viewer where it is exposed to
direct sunlight as this may lead to fire.

WARRANTY POLICY
All Pentax cameras purchased through authorized bona fide photographic
distribution channels are guaranteed against defects of material or workman-
ship for a period of twelve months from date of purchase. Service will be ren-
dered, and defective parts will be replaced without cost to you within that
period, provided the equipment does not show evidence of impact, sand or
liquid damage, mishandling, tampering, battery or chemical corrosion, opera-
tion contrary to operating instructions, or modification by an unauthorized
repair shop. The manufacturer or its authorized representatives shall not be
liable for any repair or alterations except those made with its written consent
and shall not be liable for damages from delay or loss of use or from other
indirect or consequential damages of any kind, whether caused by defective
material or workmanship or otherwise; and it is expressly agreed that the lia-
bility of the manufacturer or its representatives under all guarantees or war-
ranties, whether expressed or implied, is strictly limited to the replacement of
parts as hereinbefore provided. No refunds will be made on repairs by non-
authorized Pentax service facilities.
Procedure During 12-month Warranty Period
Any Pentax which proves defective during the 12-month warranty period
should be returned to the dealer from whom you purchased the equipment or
to the manufacturer. If there is no representatives of the manufacturer in your
country, send the equipment to the manufacturer, with postage prepaid. In
this case, it will take a considerable length of time before the equipment can
be returned to you owing to the complicated customs procedures required. If
the equipment is covered by warranty, repairs will be made and parts
replaced free of charge, and the equipment will be returned to you upon com-
pletion of servicing. If the equipment is not covered by warranty, regular
charges of the manufacturer or of its representatives will apply. Shipping
charges are to be borne by the owner. If your Pentax was purchased outside
of the country where you wish to have it serviced during the warranty period,
regular handling and servicing fees may be charged by the manufacturer’s
representatives in that country. Notwithstanding this, your Pentax returned to
the manufacturer will be serviced free of charge according to this procedure
and warranty policy. In any case, however, shipping charges and customs
clearance fees to be borne by the sender. To prove the date of your purchase
when required, please keep the receipt or bills covering the purchase of your
equipment for at least a year. Before sending your equipment for servicing,
please make sure that you are sending it to the manufacturer’s authorized
representatives or their approved repair shops, unless you are sending it
directly to the manufacturer. Always obtain a quotation for the service charge,
and only after you accept the quoted service charge, instruct the service sta-
tion to proceed with the servicing.
This warranty policy does not affect the customer’s statutory rights.
The local warranty policies available from Pentax distributors in some
countries can supersede this warranty policy. Therefore, we recommend
that you review the warranty card supplied with your product at the time
of purchase, or contact the PENTAX distributor in your country for more
information and to receive a copy of the warranty policy.
