Connecting or disconnecting the AC power adapter while
the camera is switched on temporarily interrupts the
power supply to the camera, so that images or movies
being shot at the time are not recorded. Failing to switch
the camera off first can also result in damage to the
SmartMedia or malfunctions during PC connection.
Charging times increase at low temperatures.
If the self-timer lamp flashes during charging, a charging
error has occurred and the battery cannot be charged. If
this occurs, see P.122.
Check that the camera is switched off. Plug the
AC power adapter connector into the DC IN 5V
socket on the camera and then plug the adapter
itself into the main power outlet.
The self-timer lamp lights red and battery
charging begins. When charging is completed,
the self-timer lamp switches off.
A fully discharged battery takes roughly 5 hours
to fully recharge (at an ambient temperature of
+21°C to +25°C (+70°F to +77°F)).
When you first switch the camera on, the date is
cleared. Press the “MENU/OK” button to set the
date and time.
In “U” mode, the lens cover opens and the
lens extends. Take care not to press on
these precision components as this could
result in a fault or a “¨ ”
message being displayed on the LCD
monitor. Take care also not to leave
fingermarks on the lens as this will degrade
the picture quality.

camera emits a short double-beep and focuses on your
subject (the viewfinder lamp (green) changes from
blinking to steady). At that point, the AF frame on the
screen becomes smaller and the camera sets the
shutter speed and aperture.

When you take a picture, the viewfinder lamp lights
orange (camera not ready) before switching back to
green to indicate that the camera is again ready for

In some conditions it may be difficult to see your
subject clearly on the LCD monitor (Such as in
sunny weather outdoors or when you are shooting
dimly lit scenes). In such situations, use the
viewfinder to take the shot.
The image shown on the LCD monitor before you
take the shot may differ in its brightness, color, etc.
from the image actually recorded. If necessary, play
back the recorded image to check it (➡P.32).
Using the viewfinder or LCD monitor, frame your
shot so that the subject fills the entire AF (Auto
Focus) frame.

If the camera does not emit a short double-beep and “V”
appears on the screen, the camera cannot focus.
When you press the shutter button down halfway, the image
on the screen freezes temporarily. However, this image is not

If “V” is displayed on the screen (e.g. the shot is too dark
for the camera to focus), try standing about 2 m (6.6 ft.) from
your subject to take the picture.

outside this range, charging takes longer because
the performance of the NP-60 is impaired.
If the time for which the NP-60 provides power shortens
markedly, this indicates that the NP-60 has reached the
end of its effective life and should be replaced.
To avoid damaging the battery or shortening its
life, observe the following:
h Do not drop the battery or otherwise subject it to
strong impacts.
h Do not immerse the battery in water.
Notes on storage
h When carrying the NP-
60, install it in a digital
Lithium-ion Battery Pack NP-60 is both compact and
capable of storing large quantities of power. However, if
It is stored for long periods while charged, the
performance of the battery can be impaired.
h If the battery will not be used for some time, run the
battery flat before storing it.
To ensure that you obtain optimum battery
performance, observe the following:

Battery
(NP-60)
h When storing the NP-60,
h Always keep the battery terminals clean.
h Store the battery in a cool, dry place. Storing the
battery for long periods in a hot location can shorten
the battery life.
Soft case
place it inside the special
soft case provided.
h Always remove the battery from the camera or battery
charger when it is not being used.
h Place the battery pack inside the soft case and store
in a cool place.
I Battery Features
If you use the battery for a long period, the camera
body and the battery itself will become warm. This is
normal and is not a malfunction. Use the AC power
adapter supplied with the camera if you are taking
pictures or viewing images for a long period of time.
h The NP-60 gradually loses its charge even when not
used. Use a NP-60 that has been charged recently (in
the last day or two) to take pictures.
✽The battery should be stored in a dry location with an
ambient temperature between +15°C and +25°C
(+59°F and +77°F).
h To maximize the life of the NP-60, switch the camera
off as quickly as possible when it is not being used.
h The number of available shots will be lower in cold
locations or at low temperatures. Take along a spare
fully charged NP-60.
You can also increase the amount of power produced
by putting the NP-60 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.

I Handling the Battery
To avoid injury or damage, observe the following:
Operating temperature 0°C to +40°C (+32°F to +104°F)
h The NP-60 does not need to be fully discharged or
exhausted flat before being charged.
h Do not allow the metal portions of the battery to touch
other metal objects.
h Do not bring the battery close to a flame or throw it
into a fire.
h Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the battery.

DPOF:
Motion JPEG:
WAVE:
Digital Print Order Format
A type of AVI (Audio Video Interleave) file format
that handles images and sound as a single file.
Images in the file are recorded in JPEG format.
Motion JPEG can be played back by QuickTime 3.0
or later.
A standard format used on Windows systems for
saving audio data. WAVE files have the “.WAV” file
extension and the data can be saved in either
compressed or uncompressed format. This camera
use PCM recording.
DPOF is a format used for recording information on
a storage media (image memory card, etc.) that
allows you to specify which of the frames shot using
a digital camera are printed and how many prints
are made of each image.
WAVE files can be played back on a personal
computer using the following software:
Windows : MediaPlayer
PC Card:
EV:
A generic term for cards that meet the PC Card
Standard.
A number that denotes Exposure Value. The EV is
determined by the brightness of the subject and
sensitivity (speed) of the film or CCD. The number
is larger for bright subjects and smaller for dark
subjects. As the brightness of the subject changes,
a digital camera maintains the amount of light
hitting the CCD at a constant level by adjusting the
aperture and shutter speed.
Macintosh: QuickTime Player
✽ QuickTime 3.0 or later
PC Card Standard:
A standard for PC cards determined by the
PCMCIA.
White Balance:
Whatever the kind of the light, the human eye
adapts to it so that a white object still looks white.
On the other hand, devices such as digital cameras
see a white subject as white by first adjusting the
color balance to suit the color of the ambient light
around the subject. This adjustment is called
matching the white balance. A function that
automatically matches the white balance is called
an Automatic White Balance function.
PCMCIA:
Personal Computer Memory Card International
Association (US).
When the amount of light striking the CCD doubles,
the EV increases by 1. Likewise, when the light is
halved, the EV decreases by 1.
VGA/QVGA:
Graphics standards for PCs. Images are displayed
at 640 × 480 and 320 × 240 pixels respectively.
JPEG:
Joint Photographics Experts Group
A file format used for compressing and saving color
images. The compression ratio can be selected, but
the higher the compression ratio, the poorer the
quality of the expanded image.
