Loading the Batteries

Batteries are required to operate the digital camera. At first, load the batteries in the camera.

Z Compatible batteries

AA-size alkaline batteries (2) or AA-size Ni-MH rechargeable batteries (2) (sold separately)

1

Open the battery cover.

CAUTION

• Never use the following types of batteries, as they could cause serious problems such as battery fluid leakage or overheating:

Outer casing

1.Batteries with split or peeling outer casings

2.Combinations of different types of batteries or new and used batteries together

• Do not use manganese, Ni-Cd or lithium batteries.

• Use the same brand and grade AA-size alkaline batteries as those supplied with the camera.

CHECK

Check that the camera is turned off before opening the battery cover.

CAUTION

• Do not open the battery cover while the camera is on.

This could damage the Memory Card or ruin the image files on the Memory Card.

• Do not apply force to the battery cover.

2

Load the batteries correctly as indicated by the polarity icons.

CAUTION

Match the polarity icons (+ and ,) of the batteries to those on the inside of the battery cover.

3

Close the battery cover.

19

20

Loading the Batteries

Checking the battery charge

Turn the camera on and check the battery level indicator on the LCD monitor.

A There is ample battery charge. (Not displayed)

B There is insufficient charge left in the batteries. The batteries will soon run out. Have a new set of batteries ready. (Lit red)

C The batteries are depleted. The display will shortly go blank and the camera will stop working. Replace or recharge the batteries. (Blinking red)

CAUTION

• Soil, such as fingermarks on the poles of the batteries, can shorten time for which the batteries can be used.

• The time for which AA-size alkaline batteries (referred to hereafter simply as alkaline batteries) can be used varies depending on the brand. Some brands of alkaline batteries may stop providing power more quickly than those supplied with the camera. Note also that due to their nature, the time for which alkaline batteries can be used decreases in cold conditions (0°C to +10°C/+32°F to +50°F). For this reason, it is better to use AA-size Ni-

MH batteries.

• Due to the nature of the battery, the battery level indicator ( , or V) may appear early when the camera is used in cold locations. Try warming the battery in your pocket or a similar location before use.

• Depending on the battery type and the level of charge in the batteries, the camera may run out of power without first displaying a battery level warning. This is particularly likely to happen when batteries that have run out of charge once are re-used.

• Depending on the camera mode, the transition from

to V may occur more quickly.

• See p.118-119 for information on the batteries.

• When first purchased or if left unused for a long period, the amount of time which AA-size Ni-MH batteries can be used may be short. See p.119 for more information.

• Battery power consumption varies greatly depending on use. When you change to Playback mode from

Photography mode, may not occur, however,

V may suddenly blink red and the camera may stop operation.

Loading the Memory Card

Although you can store pictures in the camera’s internal memory, you can store many more images on the

Memory Card (sold separately). You can use the xD-

Picture Card and the SD Memory Card with the FinePix

A900, FinePix A825, FinePix A820, FinePix A800, and

FinePix A610. You can use the xD-Picture Card and the

SD Memory Card and the SDHC Memory Card with the

FinePix A920. In this Owner’s Manual, these cards are expressed as “Memory Card”.

SD Memory Cards/SDHC Memory Cards (The SDHC

Memory Card is only usable with FinePix A920.)

They are operation-checked at FUJIFILM Corporation.

d Setting the Flash (Intelligent Flash)

Flash photography is useful for taking pictures at night or indoor dark locations. Choose from 6 flash modes according to the type of shot. See p.55 for information on the available Photography modes.

MEMO

By calculating subject distance and brightness, the camera automatically adjusts the flash amount to suit shooting conditions. This maintains consistent balance of bright/dark areas across the image in low-light conditions

(dimly-lit room, etc). The Intelligent Flash feature guarantees consistent results when using the flash.

The flash setting changes each time you

press d(q).

MEMO

When pressing the shutter button down halfway, b appears on the LCD monitor before the flash fires.

[ AUTO FLASH] (not displayed)

Use this mode for ordinary photography.

The flash fires as required by the shooting conditions.

[b RED EYE REDUCTION]

This mode is suitable for shooting portraits in low-light conditions.

Use this mode to minimize red-eye (eyes appear in red in the finished photo).

On the FinePix A920/FinePix A900/FinePix

A825/FinePix A820/FinePix A800, you can set this mode as a shooting mode (p.48).

MEMO Red-eye effect

When using the flash to take a picture of people in lowlight conditions, eyes may sometimes appear red in the picture. This is caused by the light of the flash reflecting off the inside of the eye.

[d FORCED FLASH]

Use this mode in backlit scenes, or to get the correct colors when taking a picture under bright lighting.

In this mode, the flash fires in bright as well as dark conditions.

[C SUPPRESSED FLASH]

This mode is suitable for situations where the flash cannot be used.

Use a tripod to prevent camera shake when shooting in

Suppressed flash mode in the dark condition.

Any time, flash does not fire.

[c SLOW SYNCHRO],

[n RED EYE & SLOW]

This mode allows you to take pictures of people at night that clearly show both your subjects and the night time backdrop. To prevent camera shake, always use a tripod.

Using n synchronizes Red-eye reduction mode.

Using 8 selects slow shutter speeds of up to 3 seconds.

CAUTION

In bright scenes, overexposure may occur.

• The flash charging time may increase when the batteries are low on charge.

• When taking a picture using the flash, the image may disappear and go dark briefly due to flash charging. The indicator lamp blinks orange during charging.

• The flash fires several times (pre-flashes and the main flash). Do not move the camera until the picture is taken.

Z Places to Avoid

Do not store or use the camera in the following types of locations:

• In the rain or in very humid, dirty, or dusty places

• In direct sunlight or in places subject to extreme temperature rises, such as in a closed car in summer

• Extremely cold places

• Places with strong vibration

• Places with smoke or steam

• Places subject to strong electric magnetic fields (such as near broadcasting tower, power lines, radar, motors, transformers, magnets, etc.)

• In contact with chemicals such as pesticides

• Next to rubber or vinyl products

Z Damaged by Water or Sand


FinePix A800/FinePix A610 can be damaged on the inside and outside by water and sand. When you are at the beach or close to water, make sure that the camera is not damaged by water or sand. Take care not to place the camera on a wet surface.

Z Damaged by Condensation

If the camera is carried from a cold location into a warm place, water droplets (condensation) may form on the inside of the camera or on the lens. When this occurs, turn the camera off and wait an hour before using the camera.

Condensation may also form on the Memory Card. In this event, remove the Memory Card and wait a short time.

Z When the Camera is Not Used or is stored Periods of Time

If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period of time, remove the batteries and the Memory Card.

Z Cleaning Your Camera

• Use a blower brush to remove any dust on the lens or

LCD monitor, and then gently wipe the camera with a soft, dry cloth. If any soil remains, apply a small amount of lens cleaning liquid to a piece of FUJIFILM lens cleaning paper and wipe gently.

• Do not scratch hard objects against the lens or LCD monitor.

• Clean the body of the camera with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use volatile substances or cleaning products these items can cause damage.

Z Using the Camera When Traveling

When traveling overseas, do not place your camera in the check-in baggage. Baggage can be subjected to violent shocks, and the camera may be damaged inside or outside.

117

Power Supply and Batteries

118

Applicable Batteries

• In the camera, use AA-size alkaline or Ni-MH (nickelmetal hydride) rechargeable batteries.

Do not use AA-size manganese, nickel-cadmium (Ni-

Cd) or lithium batteries in your FinePix A920/FinePix


FinePix A610 because the heat created by the batteries could damage the camera or cause it not to work.

• The life of alkaline batteries varies between brands. The life of batteries you purchase may be shorter than those provided with the camera.

Notes on the Batteries

Incorrect use of the batteries could cause them to leak, become hot, ignite, or burst. Always observe the precautions given below.

• Do not heat the batteries or throw them into a fire.

• Do not carry or store batteries with metal objects such as necklaces or hairpins.

• Do not expose the batteries to water, and keep batteries from getting wet or stored in moist locations.

• Do not attempt to take apart or change the batteries, including battery casings.

• Do not subject the batteries to strong impacts.

• Do not use batteries that are leaking, deformed, discolored.

• Do not store batteries in warm or humid places.

• Keep the batteries out of reach of babies and small children.

• Make sure that the battery polarity (+ and ,) 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.

If any liquid at all leaks from the batteries, wipe the battery compartment thoroughly and then load new batteries.

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.

Using the AA-size Ni-MH batteries correctly

• As a power source in digital cameras, AA-size Ni-MH batteries (referred to hereafter as Ni-MH batteries) are superior to alkaline batteries in several ways, such as allowing more shots to be taken with the camera.

However, care must be taken with the way Ni-MH batteries are used if their original performance is to be maintained.

• 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. By repeating this cycle several times, the temporary reduction in performance caused by “memory” or “deactivation” can be remedied and the batteries can be restored to their original performance levels.

Deactivation and memory are specific to Ni-MH batteries and are not in fact battery faults. See p.120-

122 for the procedure for “Discharging rechargeable batteries”.

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.

• Do not use the battery charger to charge other batteries.

• Note that the batteries feel warm after being charged.

• 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 discharge the batteries.

• Ni-MH batteries have a limited service life. If a battery can only be used for a short time even after repeated discharge-charge cycles, it may have reached the end of its service life.

Z Disposing of Batteries

When disposing of batteries, do so in accordance with your local waste disposal regulations.

Continued Q

• Do not connect the AC power adapter to charge the AAsize Ni-MH (nickel-metal hydride) batteries. Use the optional charger to charge the Ni-MH batteries.

Discharging rechargeable batteries

The Discharging rechargeable batteries function can only be used with Ni-MH batteries.

The Discharging rechargeable batteries function should not be used with alkaline batteries as it will completely drain the battery charge.

Use the Discharging rechargeable batteries function in the following situations:

• When the batteries only last for a short time after being charged normally

• When the batteries have not been used for a long period

• When you purchase new Ni-MH batteries

Do not use the Discharging rechargeable batteries function while using the AC power adapter. In these situations, the Ni-MH batteries will not be discharged due to the external power supply.

Alkaline batteries

Battery Type

Ni-MH batteries 2500 mAh

Number of frames

Approx. 100 frames

Approx. 350 frames

According to the CIPA (Camera & Imaging Products Association) standard procedure for measuring digital still camera battery consumption (extract):

When using alkaline batteries, use the batteries supplied with the camera. You can use Ni-MH batteries also. The storage media should be xD-Picture Card.

Pictures should be taken at a temperature of +23°C (+73°F), with the LCD monitor turned on, the optical zoom moved from full wide-angle to full telephoto (or vice-versa) and back again to its original position every 30 seconds, the flash used at full power every second shot and the camera turned off and then on again once every 10 shots.

• Note: Because the number of available shots varies depending on the capacity of alkaline batteries or the level of charge in Ni-MH batteries, the figures shown here for the number of available shots using batteries are not guaranteed.

The number of available shots will also decline at low temperatures.

If you shoot using the xD-Picture Cards with model numbers containing “M” such as DPC-M2GB, movie recording time may be reduced if you repeatedly record and erase (frame erase) image files. In such a case, erase all frames or format the xD-Picture Card before use. Back up important frames (files) onto your PC or another media.

* These specifications are subject to change without notice. FUJIFILM shall not be held liable for damages resulting from errors in this Owner’s Manual.

* The LCD monitor on your digital camera is manufactured using advanced high-precision technology. Even so, small bright points and anomalous colors (particularly around text) may appear on the monitor. These are normal display characteristics and do not indicate a fault with the monitor. This phenomenon will not appear on the recorded image.

* The operation error may be caused in a digital camera by the strong radio interference (i. e. electric fields, static electricity, line noise, etc.).

* Due to the nature of the lens, the edges of images may appear distorted. This is normal.

Explanation of Terms

Deactivated batteries

Leaving an Ni-MH battery unused in storage for a long period may cause a rise in the level of substances that inhibit current flow inside the battery and result in a dormant battery. A battery in this state is referred to as deactivated.

Because current flow is inhibited in a deactivated Ni-MH battery, the battery’s original level of performance cannot be achieved.

EV

A number 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.

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.

Frame rate (fps)

The frame rate refers to the number of images (frames) that are photographed or played back per second. For example, when

10 frames are continuously photographed in a 1-second interval, the frame rate is expressed as 10 fps.

For reference, TV images are displayed at 30 fps (NTSC).

JPEG

Joint Photographic Experts Group

A file format used for compressing and saving color images. The higher the compression rate, the greater the loss of quality in the decompressed (restored) image.

Memory effect

If an Ni-MH battery is repeatedly charged without first being fully discharged, its performance may drop below its original level.

This is referred to as the “memory effect”.

Motion JPEG

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.

Smear

A phenomenon specific to CCDs whereby white streaks appear on the image when there is a very strong light source, such as the sun or reflected sunlight, in the photography screen.

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.

Exif Print Format is a newly revised digital camera file format that contains a variety of shooting information for optimal printing.
