EN-5
Notes on Battery Usage
When you use the battery, carefully read and strictly observe the Safety Instructions
and the notes described below:
Use only the specified battery (3.7V).
Avoid extremely cold environments as low temperatures can shorten the battery life and
reduce camera performance.
When you are using a new rechargeable battery or a rechargeable battery that has not
been used for an extended period of time (the battery that passed the expiry date is an
exception), it may affect the number of images that can be captured. Therefore, to
maximize its performance and lifetime, we recommend that you fully charge the battery
and discharge it for at least one complete cycle before use.
The battery may feel warm after a long period of continuous use of the camera or the
flash. This is normal and not a malfunction.
The camera may feel warm after a long period of continuous use. This is normal and not
a malfunction.
If the battery is not to be used for a long period of time, remove it from the camera to
prevent leakage or corrosion.
If the battery is not to be used for a long period of time, store it after no battery power is
left. If the battery is stored for a long time in a fully charged state, its performance may be
impaired.
Always keep the battery terminals clean.
There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the recycle instructions.
We recommend charging the battery for 8 hours before the camera’s first use.

Anti shake button
The anti-shake function works according to the luminance of the target object. This func-
tion uses special image data processing for getting high sensitivity of CCD. High sensitiv-
ity can use higher shutter speed compared with normal mode, so it reduces influence of
hand shaking. Press the anti-shake button before pressing the shutter button.

EN-23
Recording a Subject onto an Existing Background Image
Pre-Shot helps you get the background you want, even if you need to ask someone
else to record the image for you. Basically, Pre-Shot is a two-step process.
Higher resolution and higher quality images provide finer detail but cause the images’
file size to be larger.
To change image resolution or image quality, perform these steps below:
Step 1: You compose the background you want and press the shutter button, which causes
a semi-transparent image of the background to remain on the monitor screen.
Step 2: Ask someone else to record a shot of you against your original background, telling
him/her to compose the image by using the semi-transparent monitor screen image
as a guide. Camera stores the image produced by step 2 only.
Step 3: Depending on how the image is actually composed in step 2, its background may not
be exactly the same as the one you composed in step 1.
1. Slide the mode switch to [ ].
a. Press the MENU button.
b. Select [Function] with the f button.
c. Select [Capture Mode] with the c / d buttons, and press the SET button.
d. Select [Pre-Shot] with the c / d buttons, and press the SET button.
e. Press the MENU button to exit from the menu screen.
2. Compose the background you want on the monitor screen, and then press the shutter
button to temporarily record it as a reference image.
This operation causes a semi-transparent image of the background to appear on the
monitor screen, but the displayed image is not actually saved in camera memory.
3. Now you can stand in front of the background and ask someone else to snap your
picture, using the semi-transparent background on the monitor screen as a composition
guide.
4. After composing the final image (using the semi-transparent background as a guide), the
person with camera should press the shutter button to record.
Note that the semi-transparent background image you temporarily record in step 2 is for
composition purposes only. The final image contains only what is in front of camera
when the shutter button is pressed in step 4.
F
reeze the background on
t
he monitor screen.
Only the second image
is recorded.
Record the image, using
the background on the
monitor screen as a guide.
