 If you press the shutter button after selecting the flash, the first

flash fires to check the shooting condition (Flash range and Power
ratio of flash). Do not move the camera until the second flash
fires.
 Using the flash frequently will reduce the life of the battery.
 Under normal operating conditions the re-charging time for the
flash is usually within 5 seconds. If the battery is weak, the charging time will be longer.
 The camera flash does not operate in the [Movie] and some
Scene modes.
 Take photographs within the flash range.
 The image quality is not guaranteed if the subject is too close or
highly reflective.
 When taking an image in poorly lit conditions with the flash, there
may be a white speck in the captured image. The speck is caused
by the flash light reflecting off atmospheric dust.
 If flash doesn’t pop up, can not use the flash.

The colour of the light changes to blue when the colour temperature
goes up, but it changes to red when the colour temperature goes
down. The change in the colour of the light is indicated in kelvins (K)
and is called the colour temperature. This camera allows the user
to set the white balance settings to shoot with natural colours in the

Ŷ Smart face detection
The camera registers the frequently
detected faces of up to 17 people. Focus
and exposure for the registered faces are
adjusted automatically in order of priority.
The order of priority for the registered
faces can be checked in graphs. However,
the smart face detection function is available
only when inserting an external memory card.
- When a registered face is not detected:
operates the same as with the face
detection function.
- When a registered face is detected:
a priority level is indicated on the
detected face.
- When more than two registered faces
are detected: order of priority is indicated
on the detected faces.

Ɣ A maximum of 3 people can be registered in a scene.
Ɣ If the camera doesn’t recognise a registered face, it detects the face regardless of the priority.
Ɣ Even though a face is not registered, a face detection graph may appear if
the face detection ratio is good.
Ɣ Categorizing pictures is available in the playback mode according to the
priority of faces (p. 73).
Ɣ Even though a face is recognised, it may not be categorized in the Smart
Album according to the priority.
Ɣ Faces can be registered manually in the playback mode (p. 87).

 Self Portrait
When taking pictures of yourself, the area of your face is automatically
detected so that you can take self pictures more easily and quickly.
1. For self-¿lming, set the camera lens
towards the face of the object.
It automatically detects the face of the
object, and emits a guiding sound.
2. Start ¿lming by pressing the shutter
button.

Ɣ The same person can be recognised as a different person and vice
versa depending on glasses, brightness, extreme change of pose or
facial expressions.
Ɣ If you register a new face when 17 faces are already registered, the
17th face with the lowest priority is switched with the newly added
face.

 When locating the face in the center of the screen, it repeatedly
emits a faster sound unlike the sounds that are emitted when
the face is not in the center.
 The guiding sound can be set using the sound setting menu.

detecting the face of the subject although
you don’t press the shutter button. If you

smiley face of your subject helps detecting
the smile face of the subject.

If the eyes of the subject are closed when the
shutter button is pressed, the camera takes
2 continuous shots and then the images are
saved. The camera takes only one picture if
the eyes of the subject are open when the
Shutter button is pressed.
 Detecting the smiling face or the blinking eyes may not be available if any of the following situations occurs:
- If the subject is wearing sunglasses.
- When the subject is not facing directly to the camera.
- If the environmental light is too bright or too dark to detect the
face of the subject.
- When the camera is far from the subject. (Orange colored

 This unit contains precision electronic components. Do not
use or store this unit in the following locations.
- Areas exposed to severe changes in temperature and humidity.
- Areas exposed to dust and dirt.
- Areas exposed to direct sunlight or the inside of a vehicle in hot
weather.
- Environments where there is high magnetism or excessive vibration.
- Areas with high explosives or highly flammable materials.
 Do not leave this camera in places subject to dust, chemicals
(like naphthalene and mothballs), high temperature and high
humidity. Keep this camera with silica gel in a hermetically
sealed box when not planning to use the camera for a long
period of time.
 Sand can be particularly troublesome to cameras.
- Do not let sand get inside the camera when using it on beaches,
coastal dunes, or other areas where there is lots of sand.
- Doing so may result in failure or may permanently render the
camera unusable.
 Handling the camera
- Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations.
- Protect the large size LCD monitor from an impact. When this
camera is not used, keep it in the camera case.
- Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.
- This camera is not waterproof.
To avoid dangerous electrical shocks, never hold or operate the
camera with wet hands.
- If you use this camera in wet places, such as beach or pool, do
not let water or sand get inside the camera. Doing so may result
in failure or may permanently damage the unit.

094

Important notes
 Extremes in temperature may cause problems.
- If the camera is transferred from a cold to a warm and humid
environment, condensation can form on the delicate electronic
circuitry. If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait for at least
1 hour until all moisture is dispersed. Moisture built up can also
occur on the memory card. If this happens, turn off the
camera and remove the memory card. Wait until the moisture
has dispersed.
 Caution on Using the Lens
- If the lens is subjected to direct sunlight, it could result in the
discoloration and deterioration of the image sensor.
- Take care not to get fingerprints or foreign substances on the
surface of the lens.
 If the digital camera is not used for a long period, an electric
discharge can occur. It is a good idea to remove the battery
and the memory card if you do not intend using the camera
for an extended period of time.
 If the camera is exposed to an electronic interference, it will
turn itself off to protect the memory card.

 Camera Maintenance
- Use a soft brush (available from photo stores) to gently clean the
lens and LCD assemblies. If this does not work, lens-cleaning
paper with lens cleaning fluid can be used.
Clean the camera body with a soft cloth. Do not allow this
camera to come into contact with solvent materials such as
benzol, insecticide, thinners etc. This may damage the body shell
of the camera and also affect its performance. Rough handling
can damage the LCD monitor. Take care to avoid
damage and keep the camera in its protective carry case at all
times when not in use.
 Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the camera.
 Under certain conditions, static electricity can cause the flash
unit to fire. This is not harmful to the camera and is not a
malfunction.
 When images are uploaded or downloaded, the data transfer
may be affected by static electricity. In this case, disconnect
and re-connect the USB cable before trying the transfer again.
 Before an important event or going on a trip, you should
check the camera condition.
- Take a picture for testing the camera condition and prepare extra battery.
- Samsung cannot be held responsible for camera malfunctions.
 If the digital camera is not used for a long period, the date and
time may adopt the default settings by automatical battery
discharged. In this case, reset the date and time correctly before
the recording.
