23

Working Distance

The focus range of thecamera is 0.6 m (2 ft.) to

(infinity).

When the subject is closerthan 0.6m (2 ft.), theshutter will not release.(The green lamp blinks.)When the subject isextremely close to thecamera, the subject will beout of focus although theshutter releases.

The viewfinder's pictureframe is the area that can beshot of subjects at (infinity).However, the picture area willmove lower in the viewfinderas you get closer to thesubject. At 0.6 m (2 ft.), theshaded area is the actualavailable image area. In thiscase, the subject should bepositioned below the close-upcorrection marks.

USING THE FOCUS LOCK To Avoid Taking Out-of-focus Pictures

When the main subject isnot within the autofocusmark, use the focus lock.

Autofocus mark

The autofocus mark must bepositioned on the subject inorder to focus on it. In theleft case, the camera willfocus on the tree in thebackground and the subjectswill be out of focus.

1.Position the autofocusmark on yoursubject and press theshutter release buttonhalfway.

USING THE FLASH MODESThis camera has five flash modes. Select the flash modeaccording to your shooting conditions and needs.

How to change the flashmode

Press the button, the flashmode will change in the ordershown on the right.

Mode FunctionAutomatically fires in low-light and backlightconditions. (p. 32)Can significantly reduce the phenomenon of red-eye (when a subject's eyes appear red). (p. 33)

The flash does not fire. (p. 34)

Fires regardless of available light. (p. 35)

When you want to light the subject in the foregroundwith a night-scene in the background. (p. 36)

Notes:All other modes except AUTO-S mode will return to the AUTOmode when the lens barrier isclosed. When the camera isset to the AUTO-S mode, it willreturn to AUTO-S when thelens barrier is closed and re-opened.In the AUTO, AUTO-S Flash,and modes, the flashstrength is automaticallycontrolled to prevent picturesfrom being overexposed evenwhen the subjects are close.

31

AUTO (Auto Flash)In the Auto Flash mode, the flash will fire automatically in low-light and backlight conditions.

Make sure

The orange lamp in the upperright of the viewfinder lightswhen the shutter release buttonis depressed halfway. This indi-cates the flash is fully charged.

32

Flash Working Range Notes:• While the flash is still charging

and the flash indicator (orange)is blinking, the shutter will notrelease. It takes about 4seconds after the film isadvanced to recharge theflash. (at normal temperaturewith a new battery)

• In some situations such aswhen the subject is too small,occasionally the flash may notfire automatically, even inbacklight. (This is more likelyto occur with telephoto.) If thisoccurs, use the FILL-IN mode.

AUTO-S (Red-Eye Reducing Flash)Significantly reduces the phenomenon of "red-eye" (when a subject's eyes appear red).In the Auto-S Flash mode, the camera will emit a series of low-power pre-flashssbefore the regular flash. This makes the subjects' pupils contract, significantly reducingred-eye. Except for the pre-flashes, this mode is the same as the Auto Flash mode.

Note:Red-eye reduction may notbe effective with someindividuals or if:1. The subject doesn't face

the flash.2. The subject is too far from

the camera.IMPORTANT: Be sure to hold the camera still until the shutterreleases.

33

OFF (Flash Override)When you don't want the flash to fire.

In the Flash-OFF mode, theflash does not fire even inlow-light conditions. Use thismode in situations whereflash photography is notdesired or is prohibited.

34

Note:Since a slow shutter speed (down to4 seconds) is automatically selectedin low-light situations, the use of atripod is recommended to preventblurred pictures caused by shakingthe camera in this type of situation.

FILL-IN (Forced Activation)When you want to fire the flash every shot.

In the FILL-IN Flash mode,the flash fires regardless ofavailable light. This mode canbe used to brighten up asubject's shaded face, forexample.

35

NIGHT SCENEWhen you want both the subject in theforeground and the night-scene in thebackground to be properly exposed.

Use the Night-Scene Flash mode to properly light the subject in the foreground while leavingthe background naturally lit.

36

Note:Since a slow shutter speed (down to 4 seconds) is automatically selected in low-light situations, the use of a tripod isrecommended to prevent blurred pictures caused by shaking the camera.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

46

Q: How long will the battery last?A: If you use 24-exposure rolls of film and use

the flash on half of all your pictures, a new 3V lithium battery (DL123A/CR123A) will lastfor 12 or more rolls of film. If you do not usethe flash and zoom very often, the batterywill last much longer.

Q: How should I clean the lens?A: Wipe the lens gently with a soft, clean cloth

that has been moistened with a smallamount of lens cleaning fluid.

Q: Can I use film that is not DX-coded?A: Yes, but only ISO 100 film.Q: When does the camera measure and set

the exposure?A: When the shutter release button is

depressed halfway, the camera measures

both the exposure and focus and locks themas long as the shutter release buttonremains halfway depressed.

Q: Why did my camera make a loud noise andretract the lens right after I replaced thebattery?

A: Because you replaced the battery while thelens barrier was open. Be sure to close itbefore replacing the battery.

Q: The flash gets hot.A: If the flash is used continuously, it may

become hot. If this happens, stop using thecamera for a while.

Q: There's a click if I press the zoom lever afterrolling up the film.

A: It's just the sound of the gears changing,and is quite normal.
