Exposure will be calculated based on an average of light in each image area divided into multiple regions. However, the calculation will be biased towards the centre of the image area. This is suitable for general use.

Only the rectangular area in the centre of the LCD monitor will be metered for light. This is suitable when the subject in the centre is exposed correctly, regardless of the back lighting.

Exposure will be calculated based on an average of the available light in the image area. However, the calculation will be biased towards the centre of the image area. This is suitable for taking a picture of small objects like fl owers or insects.



If the subject is not the centre of the focus area, do not use the spot metering as this may result in an exposure error. In this circumstance, it is better to use exposure compensation.

Description

Take one picture only.

Images will be taken continuously until the

button is released.

This takes 6 shots per second for up to 5 seconds, when the shutter is pressed and held down. After completing the continuous shooting, images are saved automatically. The maximum number of shots is 30 and the image size is fi xed as VGA.

Take three pictures in a series in different exposures: standard exposure (0.0EV), short exposure (-1/3EV) and over exposure (+1/3EV).



High resolution and picture quality increases fi le saving time, which increases stand-by time.

If the [Continuous], [Motion Capture] or [AEB] sub menu is selected, the fl ash will be off automatically.



If less than 30 pictures are available in the memory, the motion capture is not available.

It is best to use a tripod for the AEB shooting as the time to save each image fi le is longer and blurring caused by camera shake may occur.

ISO sensitivity. However, the image may be saturated in high luminance. The higher the ISO value, the higher the camera’s sensitivity to light and therefore the greater its capacity to take pictures in dark conditions. However, the noise level in the image will increase as the ISO value increases, making the image appear coarse.



Sand can be particularly troublesome to cameras.

– Do not let sand get inside the camera when using it on beaches, coastal dunes, or other areas where there is lots of sand.

– Doing so may result in failure or may permanently render the camera unusable.



Handling the camera

– Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations.

– Protect the large size LCD monitor from an impact. When this camera is not used, keep it in the camera case.

– Avoid obstructing the lens or the fl ash when you capture an image.

– This camera is not waterproof. To avoid dangerous electrical shocks, never hold or operate the camera with wet hands.

– If you use this camera in wet places, such as beach or pool, do not let water or sand get inside the camera. Doing so may result in failure or may permanently damage the unit.



Extremes in temperature may cause problems.

– If the camera is transferred from a cold to a warm and humid environment, condensation can form on the delicate electronic circuitry.

If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait for at least 1 hour until all moisture is dispersed. Moisture built up can also occur on the memory card. If this happens, turn off the camera and remove the memory card. Wait until the moisture has dispersed before replacing the card in the camera.



Caution on Using the Lens

– If the lens is subjected to direct sunlight, it could result in the discoloration and deterioration of the image sensor.

– Take care not to get fi ngerprints or foreign substances on the surface of the lens.



If the digital camera is not used for a long period, an electric discharge can occur. It is a good idea to remove the battery and the memory card if you do not intend using the camera for an extended period of time.



If the camera is exposed to electronic interference, it will turn itself off to protect the memory card.



When images are uploaded or downloaded, the data transfer may be affected by static electricity. In this case, disconnect and re-connect the USB cable before trying the transfer again.



Before an important event or going on a trip, you should check the camera condition.

Before converting a multimedia fi le, check whether it plays back correctly on the Windows Media Player.



The converted fi les are saved as *.sdc fi le type that can be played back on the Windows Media Player.



The Samsung Converter doesn’t cover every kind of codec.

If a multimedia fi le can’t play back on the Windows Media

Player, install a multicodec (We recommend Full version of latest K-Lite Codec). Install the Samsung Converter again after installing the multi-codec.



You can select destination folder of each converted fi le. When the folder is not selected, the converted fi les are saved on a folder where the source fi le is.



If you convert several fi les at the same time, the computer may be running slow because of the CPU capacity. In this case, add the fi les in the program one by one.




Computer specifi cation, installed code and programs are the main causes of converting error. When a converting error happens, please check the following.

– Any codecs compatible with the fi les were not installed or installed incorrectly. In this case, fi nd a compatible codec and install it. If you do not fi nd any compatible codecs, install a multi-codec.

– If you installed various multi-codecs on your computer, it may cause converting problems. In this case, remove all codecs and install a proper multi-codec.

– Install the latest Windows Media Player.

– Visit device (PC, Graphic card, Sound card) manufacturer web-site and upgrade them with the latest version.



Some kinds of multimedia fi les are not converted. If the converted media fi les are damaged, they may not play back on the camera. Unusual type of fi les may not be converted. The sound and scenes may not synchronise.



The expected fi le sizes after converting a media fi le may vary.

It depends on the computer system you use.



If there is no font that is compatible with the script fi le on your

PC, the script is shown as ‘



‘.



Transferring the converted fi le to a removable disk is time consuming. The duration depends on the fi le size.



Do not use the PMP mode while driving. It may be hazardous.



A fi le that does not support fast search on the Windows Media

Player can’t select converting range and divide fi le size.
