Softkeys

Your camera has three “softkeys.” A softkey is a button whose function changes according to what is displayed above it. For example, in the Capture mode, the following screen can be displayed:

In this case, pressing the left softkey enters the Capture Preferences. When presented with a different screen display, pressing this softkey may perform an entirely different function.

Mode dial

The camera’s mode dial allows you to choose from four camera modes:

✔

Capture—the mode you’ll use to take beautiful digital pictures

✔

Review—this mode allows you to view, edit, and organize your pictures

✔

Connect—the mode you’ll use to connect your camera to your computer.

Once connected you can use Mounter, TWAIN, or KODAK DIGITAL

SCIENCE Picture Easy Software to move your pictures from your camera to your computer.

✔

Info—this mode displays information about your camera’s firmware.

You can change modes without turning your camera off.

Four-way controller

The four-way controller’s up, down, right, and left arrows allow you to move through the Camera’s menus and icons and to scroll through your pictures.

Flash

Your camera is equipped with a built-in flash that offers a red-eye reduction feature. The flash has an effective range of approximately 1.6 to 9.8 ft. (0.68 to 3 m). There are four Flash settings:

Auto— the flash fires automatically when you press the SHUTTER button and the camera determines that there is not enough light.

Red-eye— if the camera determines that there is not enough light, the flash fires once when you press the SHUTTER button to reduce the chance of red-eye and then flashes a second time, 600 milliseconds later, when the picture is taken.

2-4

Fill— the flash fires every time you press the SHUTTER button.

Use this setting when the lighting is poor or when your subject is lit from behind.

Off— the flash is turned off and will not fire. If you turn the flash off, the next time you turn the camera on, the camera defaults to the

Auto flash setting.

Exposure Compensation

The camera’s exposure can be adjusted from -2.0 to +2.0 exposure value (EV) in

0.5 EV increments while in Capture mode.

If your pictures are:

✔

correctly exposed

—maintain the AUTO default setting which will automatically choose the correct exposure for the lighting conditions.

✔

too dark— increase (+) the exposure compensation setting

✔

too light— decrease (-) the exposure compensation setting

Picture Type

The Picture Type icon changes to indicate the type of picture you are taking.

There are three picture types:

Still— a single still picture is taken. The Still picture type is the default; whenever you turn the camera on, Still pictures is the selected picture type.

Burst— a series of pictures are taken in quick succession.

Timelapse— a series of pictures are taken with a time delay between each picture. You can set the time delay through Capture

Preferences.

☞

Refer to Chapter 5, “Setting camera properties” for more information about each picture type and their preference settings.

2-5

Quality

You may set your camera to take pictures with a Good, Better, or Best Quality setting. The Quality setting indicates how much the picture is compressed to save space on the memory card.

A brief detour to discuss quality and resolution...

Keep in mind that with your DC220 and DC260 Cameras you’re generally going to get beautiful digital pictures. But based on two factors, resolution and

compression

, some pictures will be of a higher quality than others.

It’s basically quality versus quantity when it comes to pictures.

Instead of film, a digital camera places your pictures on a memory card. The pictures are made up of pixels. Stand really close to your TV—so close that your mother would yell at you if she saw you. Those little dots that make up the picture are pixels. It’s the more the merrier when it comes to pixels and the quality of your digital pictures. But everything has its price. The more pixels you have (or the better the resolution in other words) the more space you use on the camera memory card.

To save space, you can compress each picture. When a picture is compressed, some color and detail information is discarded. More compression means a lower quality picture. Less compression means a better quality picture.

Together, compression (or quality ) and resolution dictate how many pictures you can fit on your memory card.

✔

If the quality of your pictures is most important, use high quality (which results in little compression) and high resolution. You may want to do this if you will be printing your pictures on a high quality printer.

✔

If space on your memory card is most important, use a lower quality

(which results in more compression) and standard resolution. You may want to do this if you will be using your pictures in a Web page.

☞

Remember that Resolution and Quality are two different things. Resolution is the number of pixels in the picture. Quality is how much you compress them.

2-6

We now return to our Quality discussion....

You may switch freely between the three settings when taking pictures. The number of pictures the camera is able to store will vary accordingly. The Quality and Resolutions settings combine to dictate how many pictures you can store on your memory card. Higher Quality and Resolution settings mean you save more picture information, making for higher quality pictures, but use more space of your memory card.

The three Quality setting icons are:

Best— use this setting when image quality is very important for maximum picture quality, especially for larger sized or zoom prints.

Better— use this setting for general picture taking, good quality pictures, and to store a large number of pictures.

Good— use this setting to store the greatest number of pictures.

Self-Timer

Activating the Self-Timer option creates a 10-second delay between the time you press the SHUTTER button and when the picture is taken. This allows enough time for you to include yourself in the picture.

Close Up (DC220 only)

The camera offers a Close Up setting which allows you to focus as close as 8 in.

(20 cm).

☞

The viewfinder does not accurately display the subject in close up mode. To accurately capture the picture close up, the Preview option automatically starts when the CLOSE UP button is pressed.

2-7

Batteries

☞

This is a display icon only. You cannot select or change this icon.

The camera comes equipped with four AA batteries. You can use standard 1.5V alkaline, 1.7V lithium, rechargeable 1.2 NiMH, or rechargeable 1.2V NiCad batteries. NiMH tend to give the best overall performance of rechargeable batteries.

☞

Battery life will be reduced when Preview, Review, or Close-up Mode are in use.

The battery power icon changes automatically.

Full— batteries are fully charged.

Low— batteries need to be replaced.

Blinking— batteries are insufficient to run the camera and need to be replaced.

☞

Pictures stored in the card’s memory are not lost if the batteries are depleted.

Pictures Remaining

☞

This is a display icon only. You cannot select or change this icon.

The Pictures Remaining icon changes automatically to indicate the remaining number of pictures that can be stored at the current quality and resolution setting.

You may not select or change the Pictures Remaining icon.

☞

The Pictures Remaining number does not always change when a picture is taken if the picture content is easily compressed.

When the card’s memory is full, the Status Display indicates Full. You must delete existing pictures or change the memory card to take additional pictures.

For more information on how to delete pictures, refer to the “Deleting pictures” section on page 4-13.

2-8

Manual Mode

The DC260 Camera supports two advanced capture modes—the external flash mode and the long time mode. The DC220 Camera supports only the long time mode.

The two manual mode icons are:

External flash mode—

the DC260 camera’s built-in flash is disabled and the external flash sync is used to provide flash. You set the camera aperture setting (or f/stop). Choose from 1.8, 2.4, 4, 5.6,

8, 11, 16, or 22. The default value is 5.6 and provides an appropriate depth of field for many identification or portraiture applications.

Long time mode—

The camera’s flash is disabled as it is assumed that a long exposure time is necessary to obtain a proper exposure within the current ambient lighting environment. You set the exposure time between 0.5 and 4 seconds in 0.5 second increments.

Infrared Communication

In a camera to camera connection in the Review mode, two cameras can communicate with each other through an infrared connection. The Infrared

Communication icon appears and changes to indicate the state of the camera’s communication with its infrared partner camera.

The infrared communication icons are:

Initiating communication—

initiated.

Infrared communication has been

Blinking

Searching for communication partner—

looking for an infrared communication partner.

The camera is

Communicating—

The camera is communicating with its infrared partner. The alphanumeric display also indicates the number of pictures that have yet to be transmitted.

Blinking

Communication timed out—

A problem has occurred that has caused the communication to time out. The icon continues to blink until you respond to the LCD dialog or turn the camera off.

2-9

Removable memory card

The DC220 and DC260 cameras use a removable KODAK DIGITAL SCIENCE

Picture Card, also referred to as a CompactFlash or memory card, for storing your pictures. A memory card can be thought of as a roll of film. But unlike a roll of film, the picture data on the card can be erased and the card can be reused.

☞

The KODAK DIGITAL SCIENCE Picture Card is furnished with your camera. Additional removable memory cards can be obtained from a variety of sources. Visit http://www.kodak.com/go/accessories for ordering directly from Kodak, or visit the retail store where you purchased your camera. The memory cards can also be purchased at any computer store. Any standard CompactFlash card that is “CF” certified will function properly. A CF certified card will have the CF logo on its label.

The removable memory card contains no moving parts. It stores information in and maintains that data when removed from your camera. The memory card retains information until you either delete the data or re-format the card. Normal magnetic interference and airport x-rays will not harm the stored data.

Reformatting the memory card

In order to communicate with the camera and the PC, the removable memory card requires the same standard DOS format that is used by floppy diskettes. The

DC220 and DC260 offer you the format option if the camera doesn’t recognize the format of the card when it is inserted into the camera.

If you suspect that the card requires formatting and the camera does not automatically provide you the option, you can format the card by placing it into a

PCMCIA card adapter and placing the card adapter in your computer or in a card reader attached to a PC. (Refer to “Placing the memory card in your computer” on page 7-7 for more information.)

Follow the same procedures as you would for formatting a floppy diskette:

Double-click on the My Computer icon.

The My Computer window appears.

With the removable memory card inserted into your computer or card reader, highlight the icon representing the memory card.

Click the right mouse button and select FORMAT from the pop-up menu.

2-10

☞

Reformatting a removable memory card deletes all information on the card.

This deleted information cannot be recovered.

Removing the memory card

Although your camera can’t take pictures without the memory card, you may want to remove the card to use in another camera or to place in your computer.

To remove the memory card:

Open the memory card door.

Flip the memory card release button so it protrudes out from the side of the camera.

WARNING: Do not depress the release button if the red LED under the button is on or blinking. Ejecting the card while this LED is on may result in the loss of all data on the card.

Depress the release button to release the memory card from the camera.

Pull the memory card out of the camera.

☞

For a more detailed discussion of the memory card, the PCMCIA card, and the KODAK DIGITAL SCIENCE Picture Card Adapter, refer to “Placing the memory card in your computer” on page 7-7.

Power management

You can use batteries or an AC adapter to power your camera. Refer to the following subsections for information about battery and AC adapter use.

To conserve power usage, the camera has a sleep mode. After a specified period of inactivity, the camera enters sleep mode by turning the LCD off. You can set the amount of time before entering sleep mode through the Capture menu settings. Refer to setting the Sleep Timeout preference on page 3-10. After 10 minutes of inactivity, the camera turns itself off.

2-11

To reactivate your camera from the sleep mode:

✔

In the Review mode, press the DISPLAY button.

✔

In the Capture mode, use the ZOOM or SHUTTER as you normally would to take a picture.

Installing batteries

To install the batteries:

Open the battery door.

Slide the inside battery cover toward the back of the camera and then lift it away from the camera.

Insert the batteries as indicated on the battery cover.

Close and lock the inside battery cover and close the battery door.

WARNING: When using batteries, limit the continuous operation of the LCD for previewing pictures to less than 30 minutes. This is particularly true with Lithium batteries. Previewing pictures requires a significant electrical current, which over time could cause your batteries to heat up significantly. Should your camera become too hot inside, it is designed with protective circuitry to turn itself off. You should allow sufficient time for the camera to cool before turning it on again. Consider using an AC adapter when using preview mode for extended periods.

Always follow your battery manufacturer's directions fully.

2-12

☞

Remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for an extended period of time. This extends the battery life and prevents camera damage from battery leaks or corrosion. If the batteries are removed from the camera for more than a few days, the date and time will be deleted and must be reset.

Using the AC adapter

The AC adapter allows you to connect your camera to a standard electrical outlet.

This is especially useful when you are transferring pictures into your computer.

The adapter powers the camera, but does not charge the batteries.

WARNING: Only use the AC adapter designed for the DC220 or DC260. Use of any other adapter may void the warranty and can cause camera failure, fire, electric shock, or injury.

Insert the AC adapter into the AC power adapter connection on the side of your camera.

Connect the other end of the adapter into a power outlet.

Turn the camera on.

☞

The Battery icon does not appear on the Status

Display when an AC adapter is used.

Connecting your camera to your computer

A first step to using your digital pictures on your computer is to connect your camera to your computer. The camera can communicate with your computer using:

✔ an RS232 serial connection

✔ a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connection

✔ an infrared transceiver

☞

It is a good idea to use the AC Adapter when connecting to your computer to conserve battery power.

While in Connect mode the camera is controlled by the computer. Except for the

Mode dial, POWER, SHUTTER, and ZOOM buttons, all other camera buttons are disabled. The Ready light indicates when the camera is on.

Once software is installed and the camera is connected to a computer, you are ready to transfer the pictures. Refer to the appropriate chapters of this User’s

Guide, or the software’s quick setup guides, for more information on the software programs.

Entering the Connect mode

To enter the Connect mode:

Set the Mode dial to Connect.

6-1

Which connection?

Which connection should you use to transfer pictures between your camera and computer? That depends on which connections your computer supports. The following sections will help you determine the connections that your PC supports.

Open the serial port on the side of your camera.

Plug the other end of the USB cable into the camera’s serial port.

Turn on the camera.

Infrared transceiver

Infrared is invisible light that the camera uses to transfer pictures through the air without cables or wires. Like your television remote, the camera requires a clear line of sight between its infrared transceiver and the infrared port on the computer.

IrDA (Infrared Data Association) compliant devices use both a transmitting mode and a receiving mode which allows these devices to acknowledge the information was received, generate responses, and even automatically detect the presence of another infrared device.

6-5

IrDA 1.0 has the same maximum data transfer rate of the serial port, 115 Kb per second.

☞

Remember that infrared communication usually requires system resources that are used by the serial port. On most computers you will have to disable the serial port and enable the infrared port for infrared communication to work and reverse these settings if you wish to use your serial port again.

Card Adapter. You can then place the Adapter Card in a PCMCIA drive if your computer is so equipped or into a memory card reader.

PCMCIA is an acronym for Personal Computer Memory Card International

Association. Using a PCMCIA card eliminates the need to have your camera tethered to your PC and provides a fast picture data transfer rate.

7-7

☞

While using a PCMCIA card to access your pictures is generally faster than accessing the camera in the Connect mode, you lose some of the functionality you would have through the Mounter software. For example, when using MICROSOFT EXPLORER software and a PCMCIA card, you cannot extract and save audio from pictures that have attached sound. To access both a picture and its attached sound from the PCMCIA card, you must use KODAK TWAIN software or KODAK DIGITAL SCIENCE

Picture Easy Software 3.0.

Picture Card Adapter

The DC220 and DC260 use a removable memory card that complies with the

CompactFlash standard. Due to the size of the CompactFlash card, most

PCMCIA card readers do not accept the card as is, but require an adapter card. A

KODAK DIGITAL SCIENCE Picture Card Adapter is available for your memory card to adapt the 50-pin Picture Card for use with 68-pin PCMCIA-ATA compatible devices.

☞

✔

Cleaning the lens:

Blow gently on the lens to remove dust and dirt.

Moisten the lens by breathing lightly on it.

Wipe the lens gently with a soft, lint-free cloth or an untreated lenscleaning tissue.

☞

Do not use cleaning solutions unless they are designed specifically for camera lenses. Do not wipe the camera lens with chemically treated eyeglass lens tissue as it may scratch the lens.

9-1

Communicating with the computer

If your computer cannot communicate with the camera you may need to adjust the serial port speed setting. Adjust the settings using the Camera Properties

(Chapter 5), or follow the instructions on the Kodak Web site at

http://www.kodak.com

Monitor adjustment

To get the best view of your pictures, you should optimize your monitor display.

You can view the pictures on a monitor using 256 color and a 640 x 480 display setting, but these settings will not give a true representation of the pictures.

Double-click on the My Computer icon.

Double-click on the Control Panel icon.

Double-click on the Display icon and click on the Settings tab.

Make note of the settings for the Color Palette and Desktop areas.

From the Color Palette field, select the highest available setting {256, High

(16-bit), or True (24-bit or 32-bit) color} and click the OK button.

From the Desktop Area, select 800 x 600 pixels.

☞

Changing these values may cause your monitor display to be offset. Consult your monitor’s User’s Guide for information on repositioning the display.

☞

If changing your settings makes your display unusable, shutdown your PC, reboot in the Safe mode and reset the settings to those recorded in Step 4. To boot up in Safe mode, press the F5 key when “Starting WINDOWS 95...” appears on the monitor.

9-2

Printing

You may notice that the colors on your computer screen do not always match those in your documents or prints. This is because monitors and printers use different color systems.

You may be able to achieve more predictable results in your printed documents by:

✔ improving the quality of your paper. Copier paper may not offer the same results as coated paper or paper made especially for ink jet printers.

✔ adjusting your printer software settings.

✔ using fresh ink cartridges. Do not use ink cartridges beyond their life expectancy.

☞

If you need extreme precision in matching printed output to your computer screen, you may want to consider purchasing a calibration system. The aim of a calibration system is to match, as closely as possible, the printed image to the image on your computer screen. Please consult your local computer dealer for more information.

Remember these few tips when it comes time to print your document:

✔ color printing takes more time. Increased complexity in your document increases the printing and drying time.

✔ color printing is more memory intensive than black and white. If your computer gives you an insufficient memory message, you may need to close some applications, change some settings, or add additional memory.

✔ color prints may not photocopy as clearly as black and white. If you plan to photocopy documents, you may consider printing the document in gray scale. This setting is usually changed from the Print menu.

✔ resizing the picture to a smaller size or printing the picture on glossy paper may increase the quality of the print.

To improve the quality of your prints, you may want to print your pictures on

KODAK DIGITAL SCIENCE Inkjet Paper. InkJet Paper is made to work with most inkjet printers to give you clearer, crisper, and more detailed images on your prints.
