Cautions when Carrying and Using the Camera
•
Hot and humid places should be avoided. Particular care should be taken
regarding vehicles, which can become very hot inside.
• Ensure that the camera is not subjected to substantial vibrations, shocks,
or pressure as this may cause damage, malfunction, or a loss in waterproof

Histogram
A histogram shows the
brightness distribution of an
image. The horizontal axis
represents brightness (dark at
the left and bright at the right)
and the vertical axis
represents the number of
pixels.
The shape of the histogram

you whether the brightness and contrast are correct or not, and lets you
decide if you need to use EV compensation and take the picture again.
Understanding Brightness
If the brightness is correct, the graph peaks in the middle. If the image is
underexposed, the peak is on the left side, and if it is overexposed, the
peak is on the right side.

When the image is underexposed, the part to the left is cut off (dark
portions) and when the image is overexposed, the part to the right is cut
off (bright portions).
This camera has a function where overexposed areas are indicated as
blinking red and underexposed areas as blinking yellow.
Understanding Contrast
The graph peaks gradually for images in which contrast is balanced. The
graph peaks on both sides but sinks in the middle for images with a large
difference in contrast and low amounts of mid-level brightness.

•
Never remove the SD Memory Card while it is being formatted. This may
damage the card and make it unusable.
• The data on the SD Memory Card may be deleted in the following
circumstances. We do not accept any liability for data that is deleted. This
includes the following:
(1) When the SD Memory Card is mishandled by the user.
(2) When the SD Memory Card is exposed to static electricity or electrical
interference.
(3) When the SD Memory Card has not been used for a long time.
(4) When the SD Memory Card is ejected or the battery is removed while the
data on the card is being recorded or accessed.
• If it is not used for a long time, the data on the card may become unreadable.
Be sure to regularly make a backup of important data on a computer.
• Avoid using or storing the card where it may be exposed to static electricity or
electrical interference.
• Avoid using or storing the card in direct sunlight or where it may be exposed
to rapid changes in temperature or to condensation.
• When using an SD Memory Card with a slow recording speed, recording may
stop while you are taking movies even when there is adequate space in the
memory, or shooting and playback may take a long time.
• Be sure to format SD Memory Cards that are unused or have been used on
another camera. Refer to “Formatting the Memory” (p.230).

About the red-eye phenomenon
Taking pictures using the flash may cause the subject’s eyes to appear red in
the resulting picture. This phenomenon occurs when the light from the flash is
reflected in the subject’s eyes. It can be reduced by illuminating the area around
the subject or moving closer to the subject and zooming out to a wider angle.
Setting the flash mode to c (Auto + Red-eye) or d (Flash On + Red-eye) is also
an effective way of reducing red eyes.
If the subject’s eyes appear red despite such precautions, they can be corrected

• When you use a new Eye-Fi card, copy the install file of Eye-Fi
Manager stored on the card to your computer before you format the
card.
• Do not use an Eye-Fi card, or set [Eye-Fi] to P (Off) in a location where
wireless LAN devices are restricted or prohibited, such as on planes
(since images are transferred via wireless LAN).
• If you insert an older version Eye-Fi card in the camera, an error
message appears.
• Images are not transferred in the following cases:
- When available wireless LAN access points are not found.
- When the battery level is low (
(yellow) or
(red) is indicated).
• Voice recording sound files cannot be transferred.
• We recommend that you use an AC adapter (optional) when you
transfer a large number of images because this often requires long
transferring times.
• While images are being transferred, the Auto Power Off does not
function.
• If you transfer large-sized files, such as a movie, the temperature
inside the camera increases and the camera may be automatically
turned off to protect the circuit.
• To transfer images via wireless LAN, use of an access point, an
Internet environment, and configuration are required. For details, refer
to the Internet website (http://www.eye.fi).
• For details on how to use an Eye-Fi card, refer to the operating manual
supplied with the Eye-Fi card.
• If you have a problem with the Eye-Fi card, contact the manufacturer
of the card.
• The camera is equipped with a function that sets Eye-Fi
communication on or off, however, this does not guarantee availability
of all the functions on the Eye-Fi card.
• Use of the Eye-Fi card is permitted only in the country where you
purchased the card. Follow the laws of that country.

Warranty Policy
All PENTAX cameras purchased through authorized bona fide photographic
distribution channels are guaranteed against defects of material or workmanship
for a period of twelve months from date of purchase. Service will be rendered, and
defective parts will be replaced without cost to you within that period, provided the
equipment does not show evidence of impact, sand or liquid damage,
mishandling, tampering, battery or chemical corrosion, operation contrary to
operating instructions, or modification by an unauthorized repair shop. The
manufacturer or its authorized representatives shall not be liable for any repair or
alterations except those made with its written consent and shall not be liable for
damages from delay or loss of use or from other indirect or consequential
damages of any kind, whether caused by defective material or workmanship or
otherwise; and it is expressly agreed that the liability of the manufacturer or its
representatives under all guarantees or warranties, whether expressed or
implied, is strictly limited to the replacement of parts as hereinbefore provided. No
refunds will be made on repairs by non-authorized PENTAX service facilities.
Procedure During 12-month Warranty Period
Any PENTAX which proves defective during the 12-month warranty period should
be returned to the dealer from whom you purchased the equipment or to the
manufacturer. If there is no representative of the manufacturer in your country,
send the equipment to the manufacturer, with postage prepaid. In this case, it will
take a considerable length of time before the equipment can be returned to you
owing to the complicated customs procedures required. If the equipment is
covered by warranty, repairs will be made and parts replaced free of charge, and
the equipment will be returned to you upon completion of servicing. If the
equipment is not covered by warranty, regular charges of the manufacturer or of
its representatives will apply. Shipping charges are to be borne by the owner. If
your PENTAX was purchased outside of the country where you wish to have it
serviced during the warranty period, regular handling and servicing fees may be
charged by the manufacturer’s representatives in that country. Notwithstanding
this, your PENTAX returned to the manufacturer will be serviced free of charge
according to this procedure and warranty policy. In any case, however, shipping
charges and customs clearance fees to be borne by the sender. To prove the date
of your purchase when required, please keep the receipt or bills covering the
purchase of your equipment for at least a year. Before sending your equipment
for servicing, please make sure that you are sending it to the manufacturer’s
authorized representatives or their approved repair shops, unless you are
sending it directly to the manufacturer. Always obtain a quotation for the service
charge, and only after you accept the quoted service charge, instruct the service
station to proceed with the servicing.

Information for Users on Collection and Disposal of Old
Equipment and Used Batteries
1. In the European Union
These symbols on the products, packaging and/or
accompanying documents mean that used electrical and
electronic equipments and batteries should not be mixed with
general household waste.
Used electrical/electronic equipments and batteries must be
treated separately and in accordance with legislation that
requires proper treatment, recovery and recycling of these
products.
Following the implementation by member states, private
households within the EU states may return their used
electrical/electronic equipments and batteries to designated
collection facilities free of charge*.
In some countries your local retailer may also take back your
old product free of charge if you purchase a similar new one.
*Please contact your local authority for further details.
By disposing of this product correctly you will help ensure that
the waste undergoes the necessary treatment, recovery and
recycling and thus prevent potential negative effects on the
environment and human health which could otherwise arise
due to inappropriate waste handling.
2. In other countries outside the EU
These symbols are only valid in the European Union. If you
wish to discard these items, please contact your local
authorities or dealer and ask for the correct method of disposal.

For Switzerland: Used electrical/electronic equipment can be
returned free of charge to the dealer, even when you don’t
purchase a new product. Further collection facilities are listed
on the home page of www.swico.ch or www.sens.ch.
Note for the battery symbol (bottom two symbol examples):
This symbol might be used in combination with a designation
for the chemical element or compound in use. In this case you
have to comply with the requirement set by the Directive for the
chemicals involved.
