LCD Panel  
The liquid crystal panel of the monitor screen uses high-precision technology that  
provides a pixel yield of 99.99%. This means that some very small number of pixels  
may not light or may remain lit at all times. This is due to the characteristics of the  
liquid crystal panel, and does not indicate malfunction.

Before shooting your final image, shoot a test shot to ensure that the camera is  
recording correctly.

Quality  
The Quality sets the quality (compression) at which the  
image is captured. The quality determines the amount of  
compression applied to your images. Fine quality would  
give you the best images with sharper details and less compression. However, the  
higher the quality, the more memory space is required in your memory card.  
EV Compensation  
Images can be captured with the overall scene  
intentionally made brighter or darker. These settings are  
used when a suitable brightness (exposure) cannot  
otherwise be obtained in circumstances where the  
difference in brightness between the subject and the  
background (the contrast) is large, or when the subject  
that you wish to capture is very small within the scene.  
Available for still images only.  
• To adjust EV settings, press the 4 or 6 keys to increase/decrease the value. As  
you adjust the settings, the LCD monitor synchronously displays the image  
applying the EV settings. Press the OK button to save and apply changes.

“condensation” to form on the interior and the exterior of the camera, which creates  
the risk of malfunction. To prevent condensation from forming seal the camera in a  
plastic bag before changing locations. Then leave the bag sealed to allow the air  
inside to naturally change to the same temperature as the air in the new location.  
After that, remove the camera from the bag and open the battery cover for a few  
hours.  
. Lens  
• Never apply too much force when cleaning the surface of the lens. Doing so can  
scratch the lens surface and cause malfunction.  
• You may sometimes notice some distortion in certain types of images, such as a  
slight bend in lines that should be straight. This is due to the characteristics of  
lenses, and does not indicate malfunction of the camera.

. Caring for your camera  
• Never touch the lens or flash window with your fingers. Finger smudges, dirt, and  
other foreign matter on the lens or flash window can interfere with proper operation  
of the camera. Use a blower or other means to keep the lens and flash window free  
of dirt and dust, and wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth.  
• To clean the camera, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.  
. Old Rechargeable Battery Handling Precautions  
• Insulate the positive and negative terminals with tape, etc.  
• Do not peel the covering off of the battery.  
• Do not try to take the battery apart.  
. USB-AC adaptor Handling Precautions  
-
0 Never plug the power cord into an outlet whose voltage rating is different from  
that marked on the power cord. Doing so creates the risk of fire, malfunction,  
and electric shock.  
0 Take care to protect the power cord against damage and breaking. Never place  
heavy objects onto the power cord, or expose it to intense heat. Doing so can  
damage the power cord, creating the risk of fire and electric shock.  
0 Never try to modify the power cord, or subject it to severe bending, twisting, or  
pulling. Doing so creates the risk of fire, malfunction, and electric shock.  
0 Never plug in or unplug the power cord while your hands are wet. Doing so  
creates the risk of electric shock.  
0 Do not plug the power cord into an outlet or extension cord that is shared by  
other devices. Doing so creates the risk of fire, malfunction, and electric shock.  
0 Should the power cord ever become damaged (to the point that internal wires  
are exposed or cut), immediately contact your original retailer or a CASIO  
authorized service center to request repair. Continued use of a damaged power  
cord creates the risk of fire, malfunction, and electric shock.  
• The USB-AC adaptor becomes slightly warm during charging. This is normal and  
does not indicate malfunction.  
• Unplug the power cord from the power outlet when you are not using the USB-AC  
adaptor.  
• Never use detergent to clean the power cord (especially the plug).  
• Never cover the USB-AC adaptor with a blanket, etc. Doing so creates the risk of  
fire.

Charging Precautions  
. If the camera’s back lamp starts flashing green at high speed...  
• Ambient temperature or the temperature of the battery may be either too high or  
too low. Disconnect the USB cable and wait until temperature is within the  
allowable charging range before trying again.  
• Battery contacts may be dirty. Wipe them with a dry cloth.  
• Try connecting to a different computer USB port. Depending on the setup of your  
computer, you may not be able to charge the camera’s battery over a USB  
connection.  
If problems continue to occur after you perform the above steps, it could mean that  
the battery is faulty. Contact your nearest CASIO authorized service center.  
Battery Precautions  
. Precautions during Use  
• Operation provided by a battery under cold conditions is always less than operation  
under normal temperatures. This is due to the characteristics of the battery, not the  
camera.  
• Charge the battery in an area where the temperature is within the range of 5°C to  
35°C (41°F to 95°F). Outside this temperature range charging can take longer than  
normal or even fail.  
• Do not tear or remove the battery outer label.  
• If a battery provides only very limited operation following a full charge, it probably  
means the battery has reached the end of its service life. Replace the battery with a  
new one.  
. Storage Precautions  
• Storing the battery for a long time while it is charged can cause deterioration of  
battery characteristics. If you do not plan to use a battery for some time, fully use  
up its charge before storing it.  
• Always remove the battery from the camera when you are not using it. A battery left  
in the camera can discharge and go dead, which will require some time to charge  
when you need to use the camera.  
• Store batteries in a cool, dry place (20°C (68°F) or lower).  
• To prevent over discharging of an unused battery, fully charge it, and then load it in  
the camera and fully use up the charge about once every six months.

Using the Camera in another Country  
. Precautions during Use  
• The bundled USB-AC adaptor is designed for operation with any power supply in  
the range of 100V to 240V AC, 50/60Hz. Note, however, that the shape of the  
power cord plug depends on each country or geographic area. Before taking the  
camera and USB-AC adaptor along on a trip, check with travel agent about the  
power supply requirements in your destination(s).  
• Do not connect the USB-AC adaptor to a power supply through a voltage converter  
or similar device. Doing so can lead to malfunction.  
. Extra Batteries  
• Taking along extra fully charged batteries (NP-80) is recommended while on a trip  
in order to avoid not being able to shoot images due to the battery going dead.  
Memory Card Precautions  
. Using a Memory Card  
Write enabled  
Write disabled  
• SD memory cards, SDHC memory cards, and SDXC  
memory cards have a write protect switch. Use the  
switch when you need to guard against accidentally  
deleting data. Note, however, if you write protect an  
SD memory card you must then turn write protection  
off whenever you want to record to it, format it, or  
delete any of its images.  
• If a memory card starts to behave abnormally during image playback, you can  
restore normal operation by reformatting it (page 64). However, it is recommended  
that you always take along multiple memory cards whenever using the camera far  
away from the home or office.  
• As you record data to and delete data from a memory card a number of times, it  
loses its ability to retain data. Because of this, periodic re-formatting of a memory  
card is recommended.  
• Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause data to  
become corrupted or even lost. Make sure that you always back up important data  
on other media (CD-R, CD-RW, hard disk, etc.).

79  
. Discarding or Transferring Ownership of a Memory Card or the  
Camera  
The format and delete functions of the camera do not actually delete files from the  
memory card. The original data remains on the card. Note that responsibility for the  
data on a memory card lies with you. The following procedures are recommended  
whenever you discard a memory card or the camera, or if you transfer ownership to  
another party.  
• When discarding a memory card, either physically destroy the memory card or use  
commercially available data delete software to completely delete the data on the  
memory card.  
• When transferring ownership of a memory card to another party, use commercially  
available data deletion software to completely delete the data on it.  
• Use the format function (page 65) to completely delete the data in built-in memory  
before discarding or transferring ownership of the camera.  
About Folder and File Names  
Your camera automatically creates specific directory of folders in the internal memory  
cards to organize captured images and videos.  
File Naming  
File names begin with “CIMG” and followed by a 4-digit number that increases in  
sequence. File numbering starts from 0001 when a new folder is created.  
If the highest folder number is 999 and the highest file number exceeds 9999, the  
camera will display the warning message “Folder cannot be created”. When this  
happens, try one of the following ways:  
. About DCF  
The following operations are supported for DCF-compliant images. Note, however,  
that CASIO makes no performance guarantees concerning these operations.  
• Transferring this camera’s DCF-compliant images to another manufacturer’s  
camera and view them.  
• Printing this camera’s DCF-compliant images on another manufacturer’s printer.  
• Transferring another camera’s DCF-compliant images to this camera and view  
them.

. Supported Image Files  
• Image files shot with this camera  
• DCF-compliant image files  
This camera may not be able to display an image, even if it is DCF-compliant. When  
displaying an image recorded on another camera, it may take a long time for the  
image to appear on this camera’s monitor screen.  
. Built-in Memory and Memory Card Data Handling Precautions  
• Whenever copying memory contents to your computer, you should copy the DCIM  
folder and all of its contents. A good way to keep track of multiple DCIM copies of  
the DCIM folders it to change its name to a date or something similar after you copy  
it to your computer. If you later decided to return the folder to the camera, however,  
be sure to change its name back to DCIM. The camera is designed to recognize  
only a root file with the name DCIM. Note the camera also will not be able to  
recognize the folders inside the DCIM folder unless they have the names they  
originally had when you copied them from the camera to your computer.  
• Folders and files must be stored in accordance with the “Memory Folder Structure”  
shown on page 81 in order for the camera to be able to recognize them correctly.  
• You also can use a computer card adapter or a memory card reader/writer to  
access camera files directly from the camera’s memory card.  
• A Subject Image File (CIMG  
Subject Image File on your computer and transfer it back to the camera. Doing so  
can cause abnormal camera operation.

****  
NOTE  
• Do not change the folder and file names in the memory card using your computer.  
It may be unable to playback the data using the camera.

Approximate Battery Life  
All of the values provided below represent the approximate amount of time under  
normal temperature (23°C (73°F)) before the camera turns off. These values are not  
guaranteed. Low temperatures shorten battery life.  
Number of Shots (CIPA) (Operating Time)*1  
Continuous Playback (Snapshots)*2  
180 shots  
4 hours  
Approximate continuous movie recording time*3  
1 hour 20 minutes  
• Battery: NP-80 (Rated Capacity: 700 mAh)  
• Recording Medium: 1GB SD memory card (PRO HIGH SPEED (Panasonic  
Corporation))  
• Measurement Conditions  
*1 Approximate number of shots (CIPA) (Operating Time)  
In accordance with CIPA (Camera and Imaging Products Association) standards  
Normal temperature (23°C (73°F)), monitor on, zoom operation between full wide and  
full telephoto every 30 seconds, during which two images are shot with flash; power  
turned off and back on every time 10 images are shot.  
*2 Approximate playback time  
Standard temperature (23°C (73°F)), one-image scroll approximately every 10 seconds  
*3 Approximate time for a repeated cycle of 10 minutes recording followed by deletion of  
the recorded file.  
• The above values are based a new battery, starting from a full charge. Repeated
