Wide-angle zoom lens can capture wideangle pictures The camera comes with a wide-angle optical zoom (3.0×) lens for a wide shooting range of between 28 mm and 85 mm*. Add the optional wide conversion lens to extend the shooting range to 22 mm* for even wider angle shooting. *Equivalent to that on a 35mm camera Antiblur function minimizes blurring (P.63) Turn on the antiblur function to raise the ISO setting and minimize blurring when shooting. Built-in flash with a maximum range of 10 m (P.39) The built-in flash has a maximum range of 10 m when used in wide-angle mode and 6.5 m when used in telephoto mode. This enables you to take a wider variety of pictures. You can also attach an external flash. Power your camera in one of three ways (P.20) You can power the camera using the optional rechargeable battery, AA alkaline or nickel-hydrogen batteries, or the optional AC adapter for convenient shooting anytime, anywhere. L7360874_En_00_0_bookfile.book Page 3 Friday, October 13, 2006 12:56 PM Large LCD monitor and optical viewfinder Depending on the subject and shooting conditions, you can use either the 2.5-inch LCD monitor or the real optical viewfinder to compose your shots. Taken pictures can be viewed on the large, bright LCD monitor. ADJ. (Adjust) button enables easier camera operations (P.56) The ADJ. button simplifies the camera setting procedures. It allows you to make adjustments with minimum steps for settings, such as the exposure compensation and white balance. You can also assign a function as required. Take close-up shots 1 cm (5 mm from the very front of the camera) away (P.38) The unsurpassed macro shooting function allows you to capture details from a very close distance at only approximately 1 cm (5 mm from the very front of the camera). Skew correction mode helps straighten skewed images (P.40) In skew correction mode, a rectangular object shot at an angle can be straightened to look as if it were shot squarely. With the simple touch of a button, you can straighten skewed images of objects such as a message board, a display panel, or a name card. High sensitivity mode for shooting in dimly lit places (P.40) The high sensitivity mode enables shooting in dark places. The LCD monitor becomes brighter, making it easier to compose the shot. L7360874_En_00_0_bookfile.book Page 4 Friday, October 13, 2006 12:56 PM Direct printing without the use of a computer (P.98) A Direct Print-compatible printer can be connected to the camera with the USB cable to directly transfer images to the printer. This allows for easy printing without using a computer. You can also print reports and camera memos. Camera memos enable easy sorting, searching and management of images Load memo items preset with a computer and add them to shot still images. There are two types of camera memos: text and voice memos. For details about camera memos, refer to the “Software User Guide” (PDF file P.24). Bluetooth® function for wireless connectivity (P.154) The integrated Bluetooth® function allows you to wirelessly send still images to a Bluetooth®-enabled computer and wirelessly print still images on a Bluetooth®enabled printer. Shoot with GPS information (P.180) You can connect the camera to a Bluetooth®-enabled GPS receiver or external GPS module and shoot still images with latitude/longitude, position and distance information.

Note --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you are using the camera for the first time, read this section. 20 • If you have already used this camera, make sure it is turned off before inserting or removing the battery. • For information on how to turn the camera off, see P.29. About the Battery Rechargeable Battery DB-43 (optional) This is a lithium-ion battery. It is economical because you can recharge it using the battery charger and use it over and over again. The battery lasts a long time, so it is convenient when traveling. Note --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The following types of batteries can also be used. • AA Alkaline Batteries (available in stores) You can obtain them anywhere, so they are convenient for travel. However, in a low-temperature environment the number of shots you can take will decrease. Warm the batteries before use. It is recommended that you use the rechargeable battery when using the camera for a long time. • Nickel-Hydrogen Batteries (available in stores) These batteries are economical because you can recharge and use them over and over again. Please use a battery recharger available in stores. L7360874_En_00_0_bookfile.book Page 21 Friday, October 13, 2006 12:56 PM Number of shots you can take --------------------------------------------------------------• Approximate number of shots you can take on a single charge Battery Type Rechargeable Battery (DB-43) Number of Shots (Normal Mode) approx. 400 Caution----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------• The nickel-hydrogen batteries available in stores are not factory-charged. Charge them before use. • When using nickel-hydrogen batteries, use only those batteries that have been charged together. Do not mix different types of batteries. • The nickel-hydrogen batteries may be inert and consequently may not supply power immediately after they are purchased or when left unused for more than a month. In such a case, recharge the batteries two or three times before use. The batteries selfdischarge with time even if the camera is not used, so recharge them before use. • The life of an AA alkaline battery depends on the brand and the storage time from the date of production. In addition, the life of an AA alkaline battery becomes shorter at low temperatures. • Other batteries, such as manganese dry cell and Ni-Cd, cannot be used. • The battery may become very hot immediately after operation. Turn the camera off and leave it to cool down sufficiently before removing the battery. • Please remove the batteries if you are not going to use the camera for a long period of time. • Use of the rechargeable battery (DB-43) is recommended when using the Bluetooth® function or wireless LAN function (only for Caplio 500SE-W). • If you want to use a lithium-ion battery, use the rechargeable battery (DB-43) made exclusively for this camera. Do not use a rechargeable battery other than that specified by Ricoh. If you are using the camera for the first time, read this section. AA Alkaline Batteries (available in stores) approx. 80 • Based on CIPA standard (Temperature: 23 degrees Celsius, LCD monitor on, 30 seconds between shots, changing the zoom setting from telephoto to wide-angle or wide-angle to telephoto for each shot, 50% flash usage, turning the power off after each 10 shots). • Set the camera to synchro-monitor mode to increase the number of shots you can take. (GP.54) • The number of shots is for reference only. If the camera is used for long periods of time for setting and playback, the shooting time (the number of shots) will decrease. 21 L7360874_En_00_0_bookfile.book Page 22 Friday, October 13, 2006 12:56 PM SD Memory Card (available in stores) If you are using the camera for the first time, read this section. 22 You can store still images you have taken either in the camera’s internal memory or on an SD memory card (available in stores). The internal memory capacity is 26 MB. To record a lot of still images, movies or sounds at high resolutions, use a high-capacity SD memory card. Where images are recorded------------------------------------------------------------------When no SD memory card is loaded, the camera records images to the internal memory; when an SD memory card is loaded, it records images to the SD memory card. When no SD memory card is loaded When an SD memory card is loaded Records to the internal memory Records to the SD memory card Caution----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------• If an SD memory card is loaded, the camera will not record to the internal memory, even if the card is full. • Take care not to get the contacts of the card dirty. Write-protecting your images ---------------------------------------------------------------Move the write-protection switch on the SD memory card to LOCK to prevent your still images from being accidentally erased or the card from being formatted. If you unlock the card (by returning the switch to its original position), it is once again possible to erase images and format the card. It is recommended to move the write-protection switch to LOCK when you have some important data recorded. Note that you cannot shoot images on a locked card because no data can be recorded to the card. Unlock the card before shooting.
