battery casings.
• To maximize the life of the battery,
turn the camera off as quickly as
possible when it is not being used.
• The number of available frames
will be lower in cold locations or
at low temperatures. Take along
a spare fully charged battery. You
can also increase the amount of
power produced by putting the
battery in your pocket or another
warm place to heat it and then
loading it into the camera just
before you take a picture.
• Do not leave the battery in hot
or extremely cold places.
■ Handling the Battery

used for a short time even after
repeated discharge-charge cycles,
it may have reached the end of its
service life.
CAUTION
Do not use the “Discharging
rechargeable batteries” function
when alkaline batteries being used.
• To charge Ni-MH batteries,
use the quick battery charger
(sold separately). Refer to the
instructions supplied with the
charger to make sure that the
charger is used correctly.
If any battery fluid comes
into contact with your hands
or clothing, flush the area
thoroughly with water. Note
that battery fluid can cause
loss of eyesight if it gets into
your eyes. If this occurs, do
not rub your eyes. Flush the
fluid out with clean water and
contact your physician for
treatment.
■ Disposing of Batteries
• When disposing of batteries, do
so in accordance with your local
waste disposal regulations.
• Make sure that the battery polarity
(E and F) is correct.
• Do not use new with used
batteries. Do not use charged and
discharged batteries together.
• Do not use different types or
brands of batteries at the same
time.
• If you do not intend to use the
camera for a long period of time,
remove the batteries from the
camera. Note if the camera is left
with the batteries removed, the
time and date settings are cleared.
• The batteries feel warm right after
being used. Before removing the
batteries, turn the camera off
and wait for the batteries to cool
down.
• Since batteries do not work well in
cold weather or locations, warm
the batteries by placing them
inside your garments before use.
Batteries do not work well when
cold. They will work again when
the temperature returns to normal.
• Soil (such as fingerprints) on
the battery terminals makes the
batteries charge less reducing the
number of images. Carefully wipe
the battery terminals with a soft
dry cloth before loading.

■ AC Power Adapter
Always use the AC Power Adapter
with the camera. The use of an AC
Power adapter other than FUJIFILM
AC Power Adapter can be damaged
to your digital camera.
For details on the AC power adapter,
refer to the OWNER’S MANUAL of
your camera.
• Use the AC power adapter for
indoor use only.
• Do not use the battery charger to
charge other batteries.
• Note that the batteries feel warm
after being charged.
■ Using the AA-size Ni-MH batteries
correctly
• Due to the way the camera is
constructed, a small amount of
current is used even when the
camera is turned off. Note in
particular that leaving Ni-MH
batteries in the camera for a long
period will overdischarge the
batteries and may render them
unusable even after recharging.
• Ni-MH batteries will self-discharge
even when not used, and the time
for which they can be used may
be shortened as a result.
• Ni-MH batteries will deteriorate
rapidly if overdischarged (e.g.
by discharging the batteries in a
flashlight). Use the “Discharging
rechargeable batteries” function
provided in the camera to
• Ni-MH batteries left unused in
storage for long periods can
become “deactivated”. Also,
repeatedly charging Ni-MH
batteries that are only partially
discharged can cause them
to suffer from the “memory
effect”. Ni-MH batteries that
are “deactivated” or affected by
“memory” suffer from the problem
of only providing power for a
short time after being charged. To
prevent this problem, discharge
and recharge them several times
using the camera’s “Discharging
rechargeable batteries” function.
Deactivation and memory are
specific to Ni-MH batteries and are
not in fact battery faults.
• Plug the connection cord plug
securely into the DC input
terminal.
• Turn off the FUJIFILM Digital
camera before disconnecting the
cord from the DC input terminal.
To disconnect, pull out the plug
gently. Do not pull on the cord.
• Do not use the AC power adapter
with any device other than your
camera.
• During use, the AC power adapter
will become hot to the touch. This
is normal.

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 93). 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 Memmoorryy CCaarrds
SanDisk SD and SDHC memory cards have been tested and approved for use in the camera. Use
a card with a class 4 write speed (4 MB/s) or better when shooting HD movies. 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
• SD memory cards can be locked, making it impossible to format the card or to record
or delete images. Before inserting an SD memory card, slide the write-protect switch to
the unlocked position.

Inserting a Memory Card
• miniSD or microSD 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.
Removing Memory Cards
After confirming that the camera
is off, press the card in and then
release it slowly. The card can now
be removed by hand.

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.
• Movie recording may be interrupted with some
types of SD 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.
C Caution
• 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.
• Format SD 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 101.
• 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.

B Tip
For Best Results
• The completed panorama can be viewed on the
camera (pg. 50).
For best results, move the camera in a small circle at
a steady speed, keeping the camera horizontal and
being careful only to pan in the direction shown by
the guides. If the desired results are not achieved, try
panning at a different speed.
C Caution
• Panoramas are created from multiple frames. The
camera may in some cases be unable to stitch the
frames together perfectly.
• The desired results may not be achieved with
moving subjects, subjects close to the camera,
unvarying subjects such as the sky or a field of grass,
subjects that are in constant motion, such as waves
and waterfalls, or subjects that undergo marked
changes in brightness. Panoramas may be blurred if
the subject is poorly lit.
Printing Panoramas
Depending on the page size and the size of the
panorama, panoramas may print with their edges
cropped out or with wide margins at the top and
bottom or at both sides.

listed below. If the camera is unable to focus using autofocus, use focus lock (pg. 33) to focus on another
subject at the same distance and then recompose the photograph.
• Very shiny subjects such as
mirrors or car bodies.
• Subjects positioned in front of or behind a high-
contrast object that is also in the focus frame
(for example, a subject photographed against a
backdrop of highly contrasting elements).
• Subjects positioned at some distance in front of or
behind an object that is also in the focus frame (for
example, a subject in a cage, where the both the
subject and the bars of the cage are in the focus
frame).
• Fast-moving subjects.
• Subjects dominated by regular geometric patterns,
such as the windows in an office building.
• Subjects that contain many fine details, such as a
field of flowers or other subjects that are small or
lack variation in brightness.
• Subjects photographed through a window or
other reflective object.
• Dark subjects and subjects that absorb rather than
reflect light, such as hair or fur.
• Insubstantial subjects, such as smoke or flame.
• Subjects that show little contrast with the
background (for example, subjects in clothing that
is the same color as the background).
Hybrid Autofocus
The camera’s hybrid autofocus system ensures fast focus, particularly when a bright, high-contrast subject is

K Using the Flash (Super Intelligent Flash)
When the flash is used, the camera’s Super Intelligent Flash system instantly analyzes the scene based
on such factors as the brightness of the subject, its position in the frame, and its distance from the
camera. Flash output and sensitivity are adjusted to ensure that the main subject is correctly exposed
while preserving the effects of ambient background lighting, even in dimly-lit indoor scenes. Use the
flash when lighting is poor, for example when shooting at night or indoors under low light.

Caring for the Camera
To ensure continued enjoyment of the product, observe the following precautions.
Sttoragee andd UUsse
■Condennsation
If the camera will not be used for an extended
period, remove the battery and memory card. Do
not store or use the camera in locations that are:
• exposed to rain, steam, or smoke
• very humid or extremely dusty
• exposed to direct sunlight or very high
temperatures, such as in a closed vehicle on a
sunny day
Sudden increases in temperature, such as occur
when entering a heated building on a cold day,
can cause condensation inside the camera. If
this occurs, turn the camera off and wait an hour
before turning it on again. If condensation forms
on the memory card, remove the card and wait
for the condensation to dissipate.
Cleaning
• extremely cold
Use a blower to remove dust from the lens and
monitor, then gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth.
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.
• subject to strong vibration
• exposed to strong magnetic fields, such as
near a broadcasting antenna, power line, radar
emitter, motor, transformer, or magnet
• in contact with volatile chemicals such as
pesticides
• next to rubber or vinyl products
■Wateerr aanndd SSaannd
Exposure to water and sand can also damage the
camera and its internal circuitry and mechanisms.
When using the camera at the beach or seaside,
avoid exposing the camera to water or sand. Do
not place the camera on a wet surface.
Traveling
Keep the camera in your carry-on baggage.
Checked baggage may suffer violent shocks that
could damage the camera.

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.
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.
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface): An interface standard for the transmission of images and sound
that adds audio input to the DVI interface used to connect computers to displays.
Motion JPEG: An AVI (Audio Video Interleave) format that stores sound and JPEG images in a single file. Motion
JPEG files can be played in Windows Media Player (requires DirectX 8.0 or later) or 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.
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.”

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.
