First Steps
4
Inserting the Batteries
The camera takes two AA alkaline (LR6) batteries (supplied) or two AA rechargeable Ni-MH batteries
(sold separately). Insert the batteries in the camera as described below.
1
Open the battery-chamber cover.
A Note
Be sure the camera is
off before opening the
battery-chamber cover.
C Cautions
Do not open the battery-
chamber cover when
the camera is on. Failure to observe this
precaution could result in damage to image
files or memory cards.
Do not use excessive force when handling the
battery-chamber cover.
2
Insert the batteries.
Insert the batteries in the
orientation shown by the
E” and “F” marks inside
the battery chamber.
3
Close the battery-chamber cover.
C Cautions
Insert the batteries in the correct orientation.
Never use batteries with
peeling or damaged casing
or mix old and new batteries,
batteries with different charge
levels, or batteries of different
types. Failure to observe these precautions
could result in the batteries leaking or
overheating.
Never use manganese or Ni-Cd. Replace AA alkaline
batteries with batteries of the same make and
grade as those supplied with the camera.
If the battery-chamber cover can not be latched easily,
confirm the battery orientation first. Do not use
excessive force to latch it.

First Steps
5
Inserting a Memory Card
Although the camera can store pictures in internal memory, SD memory cards (sold separately) can
be used to store additional pictures.
When no memory card is inserted, d appears in the monitor and internal memory is used for recording
and playback. Note that because camera malfunction could cause internal memory to become
corrupted, the pictures in internal memory should periodically be transferred to a computer and
saved on the computer hard disk or on removable media such as CDs or DVDs. The pictures in
internal memory can also be copied to a memory card (see page 65). To prevent internal memory
from becoming full, be sure to delete pictures when they are no longer needed.
When a memory card is inserted as described below, the card will be used for recording and playback.
Compatible Memory Cards
Compatible Memory Cards
SanDisk SD and SDHC memory cards have been tested and approved for use in the camera. A
complete list of approved memory cards is available at http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_
cameras/index.html. Operation is not guaranteed with other cards. The camera can not be used with
MultiMediaCard (MMC) or xD-Picture cards.
C Caution
Memory cards can be locked, making it impossible to format the card or to record
or delete images. Before inserting a memory card, slide the write-protect switch to
the unlocked position.

First Steps
7
Inserting a Memory Card
Removing Memory Cards
Be sure the camera is off before opening the
battery-chamber cover. Press the card in and then
release it slowly. The card can now be removed by
hand.
C Cautions
The memory card may spring out if you remove
your finger immediately after pushing the card in.
Memory cards may be warm to the touch after
being removed from the camera. This is normal
and does not indicate a malfunction.
8
Inserting a Memory Card
C Cautions
• Fo
rmat memory cards before first use, and be sure to reformat all memory cards after using them in a
computer or other device. For more information on formatting memory cards, see page 73.
Memory cards are small and can be swallowed; keep out of reach of children. If a child swallows a memory
card, seek medical assistance immediately.
Do not use miniSD or microSD adapters that expose the back of the card. Failure to observe
this precaution may cause damage or malfunction. Adapters that are larger or smaller than
the standard dimensions of an SD card may not eject normally; if the card does not eject,
take the camera to an authorized service representative. Do not forcibly remove the card.
Do not turn the camera off or remove the memory card while the memory card is being formatted or data are
being recorded to or deleted from the card. Failure to observe this precaution could damage the card.
Do not affix labels to memory cards. Peeling labels can cause camera malfunction.
Movie recording may be interrupted with some types of memory card.
The data in internal memory may be erased or corrupted when the camera is repaired. Please note that the
repairer will be able to view pictures in internal memory.
Formatting a memory card or internal memory in the camera creates a folder in which pictures are stored.
Do not rename or delete this folder or use a computer or other device to edit, delete, or rename image
files. Always use the camera to delete pictures from memory cards and internal memory; before editing or
renaming files, copy them to a computer and edit or rename the copies, not the originals.

pictures saved to a network server using
FinePixViewer in the same way as on a standalone
computer.
The user bears all applicable fees charged by the
phone company or Internet service provider when
using services that require an Internet connection.
Disconnecting the Camera
After confirming that the indicator lamp is out,
follow the on-screen instructions to turn the camera
off and disconnect the USB cable.

Appendix
Glossary
Digital zoom: Unlike optical zoom, digital zoom does not increase the amount of visible detail. Instead, details
visible using optical zoom are simply enlarged, producing a slightly “grainy” image.
Discharge:
The capacity of rechargeable Ni-MH batteries will drop if they are repeatedly charged without first being
fully discharged. Full capacity can be restored by repeatedly discharging the batteries using the
l
DISCHARGE
option in the camera setup menu and recharging them using a battery charger (sold separately).
DPOF (Digital Print Order Format): A standard that allows pictures to be printed from “print orders”
stored in internal memory or on a memory card. The information in the order includes the pictures to
be printed and the number of copies of each picture.
EV (Exposure Value): The exposure value is determined by the sensitivity of the image sensor and the amount
of light that enters the camera while the image sensor is exposed. Each time the amount of light doubles, EV
increases by one; each time the amount of light is halved, EV decreases by one. The amount of light entering
the camera can be controlled by adjusting aperture and shutter speed.
Exif Print: A standard that allows information stored with pictures to be used for optimal color reproduction
during printing.
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group): A compressed file format for color images. The higher the compression
rate, the greater the loss of information and more noticeable drop in quality when the picture is displayed.
Motion JPEG: An AVI (Audio Video Interleave) format that stores images and sound in a single file, with the images
recorded in JPEG format. Motion JPEG files can be played in QuickTime 3.0 or later.
Smear: A phenomenon specific to CCDs which causes white streaks to appear when very bright light sources,
such as the sun or reflected sunlight, appear in the frame.
WAV (Waveform Audio Format): A standard Windows audio file format. WAV files have the extension “*.WAV” and
may be compressed or uncompressed. The camera uses uncompressed WAV. WAV files can be played using
Windows Media Player or QuickTime 3.0 or later.
White balance: The human brain automatically adapts to changes in the color of light, with the result that objects
that appear white under one light source still appear white when the color of the light source changes. Digital
cameras can mimic this adjustment by processing images according to the color of the light source. This
process is known as “white balance.”
89
Appendix
Internal Memory/Memory Card Capacity
The following table shows the recording time or number of pictures available at different image
qualities. All figures are approximate; file size varies with the scene recorded, producing wide
variations in the number of files that can be stored. The number of exposures or length remaining
may not diminish at an even rate.

Notices
Specifications subject to change without notice. FUJIFILM shall not be held liable for damages resulting from
errors in this manual.
Although the monitor is manufactured using advanced high-precision technology, small bright points and
anomalous colors (particularly in the vicinity of text) may appear. This is normal for this type of monitor and
does not indicate a malfunction; images recorded with the camera are unaffected.
Digital cameras may malfunction when exposed to strong radio interference (e.g., electric fields, static
electricity, or line noise).
Due to the type of lens used, some distortion may occur at the periphery of images. This is normal.

Any remaining stains can be removed by wiping
gently with a piece of FUJIFILM lens-cleaning
paper to which a small amount of lens-cleaning
fluid has been applied. Care should be taken to
avoid scratching the lens or monitor. The camera
body can be cleaned with a soft, dry cloth.
Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile
chemicals.
