Precautions
General Precautions
Be sure to observe the following important precautions
whenever using the EX-Z750.
All references in this manual to “camera” refer to the
CASIO EX-Z750 Digital Camera.
Never try to take pictures or use the built-in display while
operating a motor vehicle or while walking. Doing so
creates the risk of serious accident.
Never try to open the case of the camera or attempt your
own repairs. High-voltage internal components create the
risk of electric shock when exposed. Always leave
maintenance and repair work up to a CASIO authorized
service center.
Never look at the sun or any other bright light through the
camera’s viewfinder. Doing so can damage your eyesight.
Keep the small parts and accessories of this camera out
of the reach of small children. If swallowed accidentally,
contact your physician immediately.
Never fire the flash in the direction of a person operating
a motor vehicle. Doing so can interfere with the driver’s
vision and create the risk of accident.
Never fire the flash while it is too close to the subject’s
eyes. Intense light from the flash can cause eye damage
if it is fired too close to the eyes. This is especially true
with young children. When using the flash, the camera
should be at least one meter (3.3´) from the eyes of the
subject.
Keep the camera away from water and other liquids, and
never let it get wet. Moisture creates the risk of fire and
electric shock. Never use the camera outdoors in the rain
or snow, at the seashore or beach, in the bathroom, etc.
Should foreign matter or water ever get into the camera,
immediately turn it off. Next, remove the camera’s battery
and/or unplug the AC adaptor power cord from the power
outlet, and contact your dealer or nearest CASIO
authorized service center. Using the camera under these
conditions creates the risk of fire and electric shock.
Should you ever notice smoke or a strange odor coming
out of the camera, immediately turn it off. Next, taking
care you do not burn your fingers, remove the camera’s
battery and/or unplug the AC adaptor power cord from the
power outlet, and contact your dealer or nearest CASIO
authorized service center. Using the camera under these
conditions creates the risk of fire and electric shock. After
making sure there is no more smoke coming from the
camera, take it to your nearest CASIO authorized service
center for repair. Never attempt your own maintenance.
Never use the AC adaptor to power any other device
besides this camera. Never use any other AC adaptor
besides the one that comes with this camera.
INTRODUCTION
14
Never cover the AC adaptor with a quilt, blanket, or other
cover while it is in use, and do not use it near a heater.
At least once a year, unplug the AC adaptor power cord
from the power outlet and clean the area around the
prongs of the plug. Dust build up around the prongs can
create the risk of fire.
If the camera’s case should ever become cracked due to
dropping it or otherwise subjecting it to rough treatment,
immediately turn it off. Next, remove the camera’s battery
and/or unplug the AC adaptor power cord from the power
outlet, and contact your dealer or nearest CASIO
authorized service center.
Never use the camera inside of an aircraft or in any other
area where its use is prohibited. Doing so creates the risk
of accident.
Physical damage and malfunction of this camera can
cause the data stored in its memory to be deleted. Always
keep backup copies of data by transferring them to
personal computer memory.
Never open the battery cover, disconnect the AC adaptor
from the camera, or unplug the AC adaptor from the wall
socket while an image is being recorded. Doing so will not
only make storage of the current image impossible, it can
also corrupt other image data already stored in file
memory.
Test for proper operation before using the
camera!
Before using the camera to record important images, make
sure you first record a number of test images and check the
results to ensure that the camera is configured correctly
and operating properly.
INTRODUCTION
15
Data Error Precautions
Your digital camera is manufactured using precision
digital components. Any of the following creates the risk
of corruption of data in file memory.
Removing the battery or memory card, or setting the
camera onto the USB cradle while the camera is
performing a record or memory access operation
Removing the battery, removing the memory card, or
placing the camera onto the USB cradle while the
green operation lamp is still flashing after you turn off
the camera
Disconnecting the USB cable, removing the camera
from the USB cradle, or disconnecting the AC adaptor
from the USB cradle while a data communication
operation is being performed
Low battery power
Other abnormal operations
Any of the above conditions can cause an error message to
appear on the monitor screen (page 243). Follow the
instructions provided by the message to eliminate the
cause of the error.
Operating conditions
This camera is designed for use in temperatures ranging
from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).
Do not use or keep the camera in the following areas.
In areas subject to direct sunlight
In areas subject to high humidity or dust
Near air conditioners, heaters, or other areas subject
to temperature extremes
Inside of a closed vehicle, especially one parked in the
sun
In areas subject to strong vibration
INTRODUCTION
16
Condensation
When you bring the camera indoors on a cold day or
otherwise expose it to a sudden change of temperature,
there is the possibility that condensation can form on the
exterior or on interior components. Condensation can
cause malfunction of the camera, so you should avoid
exposing it to conditions that might cause condensation.
To keep condensation from forming, place the camera
into a plastic bag before moving it into a location that is
much warmer or colder than your current location. Leave
it in the plastic bag until the air inside the bag has a
chance to reach the same temperature as the new
location. If condensation does form, remove the battery
from the camera and leave the battery cover open for a
few hours.
Power Supply
Use only the special NP-40 rechargeable lithium ion
battery to power this camera. Use of any other type of
battery is not supported.
This camera does not have a separate battery for the
clock. The date and time settings of the camera are
cleared whenever power is totally cut off (from both the
battery and USB cradle). Be sure to reconfigure these
settings after power is interrupted (page 169).
INTRODUCTION
17
Lens
Never apply too much force when cleaning the surface of
the lens. Doing so can scratch the lens surface and cause
malfunction.
Fingerprints, dust, or any other soiling of the lens can
interfere with proper image recording. Never touch the
lens with your fingers. You can remove dust particles
from the lens surface by using a lens blower to blow them
off. Next, wipe the surface of the lens with a soft lens
cloth.
You may sometimes notice some distortion in certain
types of images, such as a slight bend in lines that should
be straight. This is due to the characteristics of lens, and
does not indicate malfunction of the camera.
Other
The camera may become slightly warm during use. This
does not indicate malfunction.
If the exterior of the camera needs cleaning, wipe it with a
soft, dry cloth.

If the camera does not work normally
This can mean there is a problem with how the battery is
loaded. Perform the following steps.
1.
Remove the battery from the camera and
check the battery contacts for dirt. If the
contacts are dirty, wipe them clean with a dry
cloth.
2.
Check to make sure that the AC adaptors
power cord is connected securely to the

GETTING READY
38
The above values are based on a new battery starting
from a full charge. Repeated charging shortens battery
life.
Battery life is greatly affected by how much you use flash,
zoom and auto focus, and how long you leave power
turned on. Recording time and the number of images you
can record are also affected by the monitor screen
brightness setting (Normal or Bright) (page 166).
Tips to Make the Battery Last Longer
If you do not need the flash while recording, select
(flash off) for the flash mode. See page 64 for more
information.
Enable the Auto Power Off and the Sleep features (page
45) to protect against wasting battery power when you
forget to turn off the camera.
You can also conserve battery power by using [DISP] to
turn off the monitor screen.
Using Manual Focus (page 80) or Pan Focus (page 79)
during movie recording extends battery life.
The Normal monitor brightness setting allows battery
power to last longer than the Bright setting (page 166).

using the battery for the first time.
NOTE
The term battery in this manual refers to the CASIO
NP-40 Rechargeable Lithium Ion Battery.
Use only the USB cradle (CA-26) that comes with the
camera or the optionally available charger (BC-30L)
to charge the special NP-40 rechargeable lithium ion
battery. Never use any other charging device.
GETTING READY
41
PRECAUTIONS DURING USE
The battery is designed for use with this CASIO digital
camera only.
Use only the USB cradle that comes with the camera or
the specified optional charger to charge the battery.
Never use any other type of charger for charging.
Use of a battery in cold environments shortens the
operating time you can expect on a full charge. Charge
the battery in a location where the temperature is in the
range of 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F). Charging
outside this temperature range can cause charging to
take longer than normal or even cause charging to fail.
Very limited operation following a full charge indicates
that the battery has reached the end of its service life.
Replace the battery with a new one.
Never wipe the battery with thinner, benzene, alcohol,
or other volatile agents or chemically treated rags.
Doing so can cause deformation of the battery and lead
to malfunction.
Should you ever notice any of the following conditions
while using, charging, or storing a battery, immediately
remove it from the camera or charger, and keep it away
from open flame:
Fluid leaking
Emission of a strange odor
Heat emission
Battery discoloration
Battery deformation
Any other battery abnormality
If the battery does not achieve full charge after the
normal charging time has passed, stop charging.
Continued charging creates the risk of overheating, fire,
and explosion.
Battery fluid can damage your eyes. Should battery
fluid get into your eyes accidentally, immediately rinse
them with clean tap water and then consult a physician.
Be sure to read page 34 of this Users Guide and the
instructions that come with the optional charger before
using or charging the battery.
If the battery is to be used by young children, make
sure that a responsible adult makes them aware of the
precautions and proper handling instructions and make
sure that they handle the battery correctly.
Should fluid from the battery accidentally get onto
clothing or your skin, immediately rinse it off with clean
tap water. Prolonged contact with battery fluid can
cause skin irritation.
GETTING READY
42
USB Cradle and AC Adaptor Precautions
Never use an electrical outlet whose voltage
is outside the rating marked on the AC
adaptor. Doing so can create the risk of fire or
electric shock. Use only the AC adaptor
bundled with this camera.
Do not allow the AC adaptor cord to become
cut or damaged, do not place heavy objects
on it, and keep it away from heat. A damaged
power cord creates the risk of fire and electric
shock.
Never try to modify the AC adaptor cord, or
subject it to severe bending, twisting, or
pulling. Doing so creates the risk of fire and
electric shock.
Never touch the AC adaptor while your hands
are wet. Doing so creates the risk of electric
shock.
Do not overload extension cords or wall
outlets. Doing so creates the risk of fire and
electric shock.
Should the cord of the AC adaptor become
damaged (exposed internal wiring), contact
your dealer or nearest CASIO authorized
service center. A damaged AC adaptor cord
creates the risk of fire or electric shock.
Caution!
BATTERY STORAGE PRECAUTIONS
Make sure you remove the battery from the camera
when you do not plan to use it for a long time. A battery
left in the camera discharges very small amounts of
power even when power is turned off, which can lead to
a dead battery or the need for longer charging before
the next use.
Store the battery in a cool, dry place (20°C (68 °F) or
lower).
USING THE BATTERY
See page 34 of this manual or the instructions that
come with the optional charger for information about

BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
This section describes the basic procedure for recording an
image.
Recording an Image
Specifying the Recording Mode
Your CASIO digital camera has eight recording modes,
each of which is described below. Before recording an
image, use the mode dial to select the recording mode that
suits the type of image you are trying to record.
Snapshot mode
BEST SHOT mode
Manual Exposure mode
Voice Recording mode
Past Movie mode
Short Movie mode
MOVIE BEST SHOT mode
Movie mode
Mode dial
(Snapshot mode)
Use this mode to record still images. This is the mode you
should normally use for image recording.
(BEST SHOT mode)
This mode makes camera setup as easy as selecting the
applicable sample scene. Select one of the BEST SHOT
scenes and the camera automatically configures itself
with the setup for that scene (page 93).
(Manual Exposure mode)
This mode gives you total control over aperture and
shutter speed settings (page 87).
(Voice Recording mode)
Use this mode to record audio only (page 115).
(Past Movie mode)
Pressing the shutter button starts recording from five
seconds prior to the point the button is pressed. Use this
mode when you want to make sure you do not miss fast-
moving action (page 108).
(Short Movie mode)
Each press of the shutter button in this mode records a
short movie that starts before the button is pressed and
ends after the button is pressed (page 106).
BASIC IMAGE RECORDING

Horizontal
Hold the camera
still in both
hands, with your
arms firmly
against your
sides.
Vertical
When holding
the camera
vertically, make
sure that the
flash is above
the lens. Hold
the camera still
with both hands.
Aiming the Camera
Use both hands to hold the camera still when shooting an
image. Holding the camera with one hand increases the
chance of movement, which can blur your images.
(MOVIE BEST SHOT mode)
This mode makes camera setup as easy as selecting the
applicable sample scene. Select one of the MOVIE BEST
SHOT scenes and the camera automatically configures
itself with the setup for that scene (page 110).
(Movie mode)
Use this mode for general movie recording (page 105).
NOTE
The icon of the currently
selected recording mode
(like for the Snapshot
mode) is displayed on the
monitor screen.

IMPORTANT!
Make sure your fingers and the strap do not block
the flash, microphone, AF assist light/self-timer lamp
or lens.
NOTE
Moving the camera as you press the shutter button
or while the Auto Focus operation is being performed
(when you press the shutter button half way) can
cause blurring of the image. Press the shutter button
carefully, taking care to avoid camera movement.
This is especially important when available lighting is
low, which slows down the shutter speed.
Recording an Image
Your camera automatically adjusts shutter speed in
accordance with the brightness of the subject. Images you
record are stored in the camera’s built-in memory, or to a
memory card if you have one loaded in the camera.
When an optionally available SD memory card or
MultiMediaCard (MMC) is loaded in the camera, images
are stored on the card (page 177).
After purchasing a memory card, be sure to load it into
the camera and format it before trying to use it (page
175).

*2 The size of the opening (aperture) that allows light
passing through the lens to reach the CCD. A larger
aperture value indicates a smaller opening for light to
pass through.
5.
After making sure that the
image is focused properly,
press the shutter button the
rest of the way down to

IMPORTANT!
When the “REC” tab’s “Quick Shutter” setting is
turned on (page 76), the camera immediately records
the image without waiting for Auto Focus to be
performed when you press the shutter release all the
way down without pausing. This helps to ensure that
you are able to capture exactly the moment you
want.
About AF Assist Light
The AF assist light/self-timer lamp operates automatically
to assist the Auto Focus operation whenever you are
shooting where lighting is dim.
AF assist light/self-timer lamp
You can turn the AF assist light on or off. It is
recommended that you turn off the AF assist light when
recording images of nearby people, etc.

B
BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
58
IMPORTANT!
Do not look directly at the AF assist light/self-timer
lamp or point it directly at the subject’s eyes.
Recording Precautions
Never open the battery cover or place the camera onto
the USB cradle while the green operation lamp is
flashing. Doing so not only causes the current image to
be lost, it can also corrupt images already stored in file
memory and even lead to malfunction of the camera.
Never remove the memory card while an image is being
recorded to the memory card.
Fluorescent lighting actually flickers at a frequency that
cannot be detected by the human eye. When using the
camera indoors under such lighting, you may experience
some brightness or color problems with recorded images.
When “Auto” is selected for the ISO sensitivity setting
(page 125), the camera automatically adjusts its
sensitivity in accordance with the brightness of the
subject. This can cause some digital noise (graininess) to
appear in images of relatively dark subjects.
When recording a dimly lit subject while “Auto” is selected
for the ISO sensitivity setting (page 125), the camera
increases sensitivity and uses a faster shutter speed.
Because of this, you need to guard against camera
movement if you have flash turned off (page 64).
Bright light shining on the lens can cause images to
appear “washed out”. This tends to happen when
recording images outdoors in bright sunlight. To protect
against this, use your free hand to shade the lens from
the light.
B
BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
59
About Auto Focus
Proper focus may be difficult or even impossible when
shooting the following types of subjects.
Solid color walls or subjects with little contrast
Strongly backlit subjects
Very shiny objects
Venetian blinds or other horizontally repeating patterns
Multiple subjects that are varying distances from the
camera
Subjects in poorly lit areas
Moving subjects
Subjects outside the shooting range of the camera
Note that a green operation lamp and focus frame do not
necessarily guarantee that the resulting image will be in
focus.
If Auto Focus does not produce the results you want for
some reason, try using focus lock (page 82) or manual
focus (page 80).
About the REC Modes Monitor Screen
The image shown on the monitor screen in a REC mode
is a simplified image for composing purposes. The actual
image is recorded in accordance with the image quality
setting currently selected on your camera. The image
saved in file memory has much better resolution and
detail than the REC modes monitor screen image.
Certain levels of subject brightness can cause the
response of the REC modes monitor screen to slow
down, which causes some digital noise (graininess) in the
monitor screen image.
Very bright light inside of an image can cause a vertical
band to appear in the monitor screen image. This is a
CCD phenomenon known as “vertical smear”, and does
not indicate malfunction of the camera. Note that vertical
smear is not recorded with the image in the case of a
snapshot, but it is recorded in the case of a movie (page
103).
BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
60
Using the Optical Viewfinder
You can conserve battery power by turning off the
camera’s monitor screen (page 30) and using the optical
viewfinder to compose images. The optical viewfinder also
comes in handy when shooting in areas where the monitor
screen is difficult to view because available lighting is dim,
etc.
IMPORTANT!
The visible area framed by the viewfinder shows the
image that would be recorded at a distance of about
one meter (3.3˝). When recording a subject that is
closer to you than one meter, the recorded image will
be lower than what you can see inside the viewfinder
area.
Area visible in
the viewfinder
Area recorded at
distances less than
one meter (3.3˝)

Since the monitor screen shows exactly what will be
recorded, always use it for composing images in the
Macro and Manual Focus modes.

Using Zoom
Your camera is equipped with two types of zoom: optical
zoom and digital zoom. Normally, the camera automatically
switches over to digital zoom after you reach the maximum
limit for optical zoom. You can, however, configure the
camera to disable digital zoom, if you want.
Optical Zoom
The optical zoom range is 1X to 3X.
1.
In a REC mode, move the
zoom controller left or
right to zoom.
Moving the zoom
controller as far as it
goes in either direction
will zoom at high speed.
Zoom controller
Move the zoom controller in this direction:
(Wide Angle)
(Telephoto)
To do this:
Zoom out
Zoom in

2.
Compose the image, and then press the
shutter button.
NOTE
The optical zoom factor also affects the lens
aperture.
Use of a tripod is recommended to protect against
hand movement when using the telephoto setting
(zoom in).
Whenever you perform an optical zoom operation
while recording with the Macro mode or manual
focus, a value will appear on the monitor screen to
tell you the focusing range (pages 78, 80).
Optical zoom is disabled during movie recording.
Digital zoom only is available. Make sure you select
the optical zoom setting you want to use before you
press the shutter button to start movie recording
(page 103).
B
BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
62
Digital Zoom
Digital zoom digitally enlarges the part of the image at the
center of the image screen. The range of digital zoom is 3X
to 24X (in combination with optical zoom).
IMPORTANT!
When you perform a digital zoom operation, the
camera manipulates the image data to enlarge the
center of the image. Unlike optical zoom, an image
enlarged with digital zoom appears coarser than the
original.
To record an image using digital zoom
1.
In a REC mode, hold
the zoom controller
towards (telephoto)
/ side.
This causes the zoom
indicator to appear on the
display.
2.
When the zoom pointer reaches the optical/
digital zoom switch over point, it will stop.
The above shows what the zoom indicator looks like
when digital zoom is turned on (page 63). The digital
zoom range is not displayed when digital zoom is
turned off.

IMPORTANT!
The flash unit of this camera fires a number of times
when you record an image. The initial flashes are
pre-flashes, which the camera uses to obtain
information that it uses for exposure settings. The
final flash is for recording. Make sure that you keep
the camera still until the shutter releases.
Using the flash while “Auto” is selected for the ISO
Sensitivity setting increases sensitivity, which can
cause large amounts of digital noise to appear in the
image. You can reduce digital noise by using a lower
ISO Sensitivity setting. Note, however, that this also
has the effect of shortening the flash range (the
range that is covered by the light from the flash)
(page 125).
Flash On
Select (Flash On) as the flash mode when backlighting
causes your subject to appear dark, even though there is
enough light to keep the flash from firing automatically.
This will cause the flash to fire and illuminate your subject
whenever you press the shutter button (daylight synchro
flash).
About Red-eye Reduction
Using the flash to record at night or in a dimly lit room can
cause red spots inside the eyes of people who are in the
image. This happens because the light from the flash
reflects off of the retina of the eye.
IMPORTANT!
Note the following important points when using red-
eye reduction.
Red-eye reduction does not work unless the people
in the image are looking directly at the camera during
the pre-flash. Before pressing the shutter button, call
out to the subjects so they all look at the camera
while the pre-flash operation is performed.
Red-eye reduction may not work very well if the
subjects are located far away from the camera.

Using Flash Assist
Recording a subject that is outside the flash range can
cause the subject to appear dark in the resulting image,
because not enough of the flash reaches the subject. When
this happens, you can use flash assist to correct the
brightness of the recorded subject, so it appears as if the
flash illumination was sufficient.
4.
Use [] and [] to select Auto, and then
press [SET].
Selecting “Off” disables flash assist.
IMPORTANT!
Flash assist may not produce the desired result for
some types of subjects.
Flash assist may have little effect on your image if
you changed any of the following settings when you
recorded it.
Flash intensity (page 66)
Exposure compensation (EV shift) (page 83)
ISO sensitivity (page 125)
Contrast (page 128)
Using flash assist can cause an increase of digital
noise in recorded images.
BASIC IMAGE RECORDING

Flash Precautions
Take care that your fingers
do not block the flash when
you hold the camera.
Covering the flash with your
finger can greatly reduce its
effectiveness.
You may not be able to achieve the desired results using
the flash if the subject is too close or too far away.
The flash takes anywhere from a few seconds to as long
as 10 seconds to attain full charge after being fired. The
actual time required depends on the battery level,
temperature, and other conditions.
The flash does not fire in the modes listed below. The
(Flash Off) icon on the monitor screen indicates that flash
is turned off.
Movie mode, Short Movie mode, Past Movie mode,
MOVIE BEST SHOT mode
The flash unit may not be able to charge when camera
battery power is low. If this happens, the flash will not fire
properly and you will not be able to obtain the desired
exposure. Be sure to charge the camera’s battery as soon
as possible when power goes low.
Flash
When the flash is turned off ( ), mount the camera on a
tripod to record images in an area where available lighting
is dim. Recording images under dim lighting without the
flash can cause digital noise, which makes images
appear coarse.
When red-eye reduction ( ) is selected, flash intensity
is adjusted automatically in accordance with the
exposure. The flash may not fire at all when the subject is
brightly lit.
Using flash in combination with another light source
(daylight, fluorescent light, etc.) can result in abnormal
image colors.

Specifying Image Size
“Image size” is the size of the image, expressed as the
number of vertical and horizontal pixels. A “pixel” is one of
the many tiny dots that make up the image. More pixels
provide finer detail when an image is printed, but a higher
pixel count also causes the image’s file size to be larger.
You can select an image size to suit your needs for greater
detail or smaller file size.
Note that this setting is valid for snapshots only. For
information about movie image size, see page 104.

Specifying Image Quality
Compressing an image before storage can cause a
deterioration of its quality. The more an image is
compressed, the greater the loss of quality. The image
quality setting specifies the compression ratio to be used
when an image is stored in memory. You can select an
image quality setting to suit your needs for higher quality or
smaller file size.
Note that this setting is valid for snapshots only. For
information about movie image quality, see page 104.

OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS
IMPORTANT!
You may not be able to achieve the brightness you
want when recording an image that is very dark or
very bright. If this happens, use the M mode (manual
exposure) to adjust the aperture or shutter speed
manually.
Using slow shutter speeds can cause digital noise
(graininess) to appear in the image. Because of this,
the camera automatically performs a digital noise
reduction process whenever the shutter speed is 1/8
second or slower. The slower the shutter speed, the
greater the possibility that digital noise will be
generated in an image. Because of the time required
for noise reduction, it takes longer to record images
at slower shutter speeds. Do not perform any key
operation while image recording is being performed,
which is indicated when the green operation lamp is
flashing.
At shutter speeds slower than 1/8 second, the
brightness of the recorded image may not be the
same as the brightness of the image that appears on
the monitor screen.
Using a Continuous Shutter Mode

Using the Histogram
You can use [DISP] to display a histogram on the monitor
screen. The histogram lets you check exposure conditions
as you record images (page 30). You can also display the
histogram of a recorded image in the PLAY mode.
Histogram
A histogram is a graph that represents the lightness of an
image in terms of the number of pixels. The vertical axis
indicates the number of pixels, while the horizontal axis
indicates lightness. You can use the histogram to
determine whether an image includes the shadowing (left
side), mid tones (center), and highlighting (right) required
to bring out sufficient image detail. If the histogram
appears too lopsided for some reason, you can use EV
shift (exposure compensation) to move it left or right in
order to achieve better balance. Optimum exposure can
be achieved by correcting exposure so the graph is as
close to the center as possible.
118
OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS
An RGB histogram that shows the distribution of R (red),
G (green), and B (blue) components is also displayed.
This histogram can be used to determine whether there is
too much or too little of each of the color components in
an image.
NOTE
You can use key customization (page 120) to
configure the camera to perform exposure
compensation whenever you press [] or [] while in
a REC mode. If you do this, you can adjust exposure
compensation while viewing the on-screen histogram
(page 83).
When the histogram is too far
to the left, it means that there
are too many dark pixels.
This type of histogram results
when the overall image is
dark. A histogram that is too
far to the left may result in
“black out” of the dark areas
of an image.
When the histogram is too far
to the right, it means that
there are too many light
pixels.
This type of histogram results
when the overall image is
light. A histogram that is too
far to the right may result in
“white out” of the light areas of
an image.
A centered histogram
indicates that there is good
distribution of light pixels and
dark pixels. This type of
histogram results when the
overall image is at optimal
lightness.
119
OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS
IMPORTANT!
Note that the above histograms are shown for
illustrative purposes only. You may not be able to
achieve exactly the same shapes for particular
subjects.
A centered histogram does not necessarily
guarantee optimum exposure. The recorded image
may be over-exposed or under-exposed, even
though its histogram is centered.
You may not be able to achieve an optimum
histogram configuration due to the limitations of EV
shift.
Use of the flash as well as certain shooting
conditions can cause the histogram to indicate
exposure that is different from the actual exposure of
the image when it was recorded.
The RGB (color component) histogram is displayed
for snapshots only. In the following modes, only the
luminance distribution histogram appears on the
monitor screen.

OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS
Specifying ISO Sensitivity
You can change the ISO sensitivity setting for better
images in places where lighting is dim or when you are
using faster shutter speeds.
ISO sensitivity is expressed in terms of values that
originally indicated the sensitivity to light for photographic
film. A larger value indicates higher sensitivity, which is
better for recording when available lighting is dim.

IMPORTANT!
Under certain conditions, a high shutter speed in
combination with a high ISO sensitivity setting can
cause digital noise (graininess), which makes an
image appear rough. For clean, good-quality images,
use the lowest ISO sensitivity setting possible.
Using a high ISO sensitivity setting along with the
flash to shoot a nearby subject may result in
improper illumination of the subject.
“Auto” ISO sensitivity always is used in the following
cases, regardless of the current ISO sensitivity
setting.
Movie mode, Short Movie mode, Past Movie mode,
MOVIE BEST SHOT mode

Selecting the Metering Mode
The metering mode determines what part of the subject is
metered for exposure. You can use the following procedure
to change the camera’s metering mode.
1.
In a REC mode, press [MENU].
2.
Select the Quality tab, select Metering,
and then press [].
3.
Use [] and [] to select the setting you
want, and then press [SET].
Multi (Multi pattern)
Multi (Multi pattern) metering divides the
image into sections and measures the
light in each section for a balanced
exposure reading. The camera
automatically determines shooting
conditions according to the measured
lighting pattern, and makes exposure
settings accordingly. This type of
metering provides error-free exposure
settings for a wide range of shooting
conditions.
Center Weighted
Center weighted metering measures
light concentrating on the center of the
focus area. Use this metering method
when you want to exert some control
over exposure, without leaving settings
totally up to the camera.
Spot
Spot metering takes readings at a very
small area. Use this metering method
when you want exposure to be set
according to the brightness of a
particular subject, without it being
affected by surrounding conditions.
IMPORTANT!
When “Multi” is selected as the metering mode,
certain procedures cause the metering mode setting
to change automatically as described below.
Changing the exposure compensation setting (page
83) to a value other than 0.0 changes the metering
mode setting to “Center Weighted.” The metering
mode changes back to “Multi” when you return the
exposure compensation setting to 0.0.

FILE MANAGEMENT
The file management capabilities of the camera make it
easy to keep track of images. You can protect files against
deletion and store the files you want in the cameras built-in
memory.
Folders
Your camera automatically creates folders in its built-in
flash memory or on the memory card.
Memory Folders and Files
An image you record is automatically stored in a folder,
whose name is a serial number. You can have up to 900
folders in memory at the same time. Folder names are
generated as shown below.
Example: Name of the 100th folder.
Each folder can hold files numbered up to 9,999.
Trying to store the 10,000th file in a folder causes the next
serially numbered folder to be created. File names are
generated as shown below.
Example: Name of the 26th file
Extension
CIMG0026.JPG
Serial number (4 digits)
The folder and file names described here appear when
you view folders and files on a computer. See page 29 for
information about how the camera displays folder and file
names.
The actual number of files you will be able to store on a
memory card depends on image size and quality, card

USING A MEMORY CARD
You can expand the storage
capabilities of your camera by using
a commercially available memory
card (SD memory card or
MultiMediaCard). You can also
copy files from built-in flash
memory to a memory card and from
a memory card to flash memory.
Normally, files are stored in built-in flash memory. When
you insert a memory card, however, the camera
automatically stores files to the card.
Note that you cannot save files to built-in memory while a
memory card is installed in the camera.
IMPORTANT!
Use only an SD memory card or a MultiMediaCard
with this camera. Proper operation is not guaranteed
when any other type of card is used.
See the instructions that come with the memory card
for information about how to use it.
Certain types of cards can slow down processing
speeds. If you are using a slow memory card, you
may not be able to record a movie using the HQ
image quality setting. Because of this, you should
use a high-speed type SD memory card whenever
possible.
Certain types of memory cards take longer to record
data, which can cause movie frames to be dropped.
and

SD memory cards have a write protect switch, which
you can use to protect against accidental deletion of
image data. Note, however, if you write protect an
SD memory card, you must remove write protection
whenever you want to record to it, format it, or delete
any of its files.
Electrostatic charge, digital noise, and other
phenomena can cause data to become corrupted or

To replace the memory card
1.
Press the memory card
into the camera and
then release it. This will
cause the card to come
part way out of the
camera.
2.
Pull the memory card out of the slot.
3.

IMPORTANT!
Never insert any other object besides a memory card
into the cameras card slot. Doing so creates the risk
of damage to the camera and card.
Should water or any foreign object ever get into the
card slot, immediately turn off the camera, remove
the battery, and contact your dealer or nearest
CASIO authorized service center.
Never remove a card from the camera while the
green operation lamp is flashing. Doing so can cause
the file save operation to fail, and even damage the
memory card.
Formatting a Memory Card
Formatting a memory card deletes any data already stored
on it.
IMPORTANT!
Be sure to use the camera to format a memory card.
Formatting a memory card on a computer and then
using it in the camera can slow down data
processing by the camera. In the case of an SD card,
formatting on a computer can result in non-
conformity with the SD format, causing problems with
compatibility, operation, etc.
Note that data deleted by a memory card format
operation cannot be recovered. Check to make sure
you do not need any of the data on the memory card
before you format it.
Formatting a memory card that contains files deletes
all the files, even those that are protected (page
161).
USING A MEMORY CARD

4.
Use [] and [] to select Format, and then
press [SET]. Entering the PLAY mode after
formatting the memory card will cause the
message There are no files. to appear.
To exit the format operation without formatting,
select Cancel.
Memory Card Precautions
If a memory card starts to behave abnormally, you can
restore normal operation by reformatting it. However, we
recommend that you always take along more than one
memory card whenever using the camera far away from
the home or office.
We recommend that you format a memory card before
using it for the first time after purchasing it, or whenever
the card you are using seems to be the cause of
abnormal images.
As you record data to and delete data from an SD
memory card a number of times, it loses its ability to
retain data. Because of this, periodic re-formatting of an
SD memory card is recommended.
Before starting a format operation, check to make sure
that the battery is fully charged. Power interruption during
the format operation can result in improper formatting,
and even damage the memory card and make it
unusable.

PRINTING IMAGES
A digital camera provides you with a variety of different
ways to print the images it records. The three main printing
methods are described below. Use the method that best
suits your needs.
Professional Print Service
The camera’s DPOF feature lets you specify which images
you want to print and how many copies of each you want.
For more information, see “DPOF” (page 185).
NOTE
Certain print service providers may not support
DPOF or may support different printing protocols. In
this case, use the protocol supported by your print
service to specify the images you want to have
printed.
Printing Directly on a Printer Equipped with
a Card Slot, or a Printer that Supports USB
DIRECT-PRINT or PictBridge
After using the camera’s DPOF feature to specify the
images you want to print and how many copies of each
should be printed, you can plug the memory card into a
printer equipped with a card slot, or connect the camera to
a PictBridge or USB DIRECT-PRINT printer for printing.
For more information, see “DPOF” (page 185) and “Using
PictBridge or USB DIRECT-PRINT” (page 188).
PRINTING IMAGES
185
DPOF
The letters “DPOF” stand for “Digital Print
Order Format”, which is a format for
recording on a memory card or other medium
which digital camera images should be
printed and how many copies of the image
should be printed. Then you can print on a
DPOF-compatible printer or at a professional
print service in accordance with the file name
and number of copies settings recorded on
the card.
With this camera, you can select images by viewing them
on the monitor screen without needing to remember file
names, their locations in memory, etc.

a Windows Computer” (pages 194, 212).
Macintosh Users
The camera comes bundled with Photo Loader for the
Macintosh, which can be installed for image transfer and
management, but not for printing. Use commercially
available software for printing with a Macintosh. For more
information, see “Using the Camera with a Macintosh
Computer” (pages 202, 227).

IMPORTANT!
DPOF settings are not cleared automatically after
printing is complete. This means that if you perform
another printing operation without clearing DPOF
settings, printing will be performed in accordance
with the last settings you configured. If you want to
prevent this from happening, perform the procedure
under To configure print settings for all images
(page 187) and change the number of copies to 00.
After that, you can configure new DPOF settings as
required.
If you take a memory card to a professional print
service, be sure to tell them that it includes DPOF
settings for the images to be printed and the number
of copies. If you dont, the printing service may print
all images without regard to your DPOF settings, or
date printing may not be performed.
Note that some professional print services do not
support DPOF printing. Check with your service
before ordering prints.
Some printers may have settings that disable date
stamp and/or DPOF printing. See the user
documentation that comes with your printer for
details about how to enable these features.
Using PictBridge or USB DIRECT-PRINT
You can connect the camera
directly to a printer that supports
PictBridge or USB DIRECT-PRINT,
and perform image selection and
printing using the camera monitor
screen and controls. DPOF support
(page 185) also lets you specify
which images you want to print and
how many copies of each should be
printed.

Memory Data
Images recorded with this camera and other data are
stored in memory using DCF (Design rule for Camera File
system) protocol. DCF protocol is designed to make it
easier to exchange image and other data between digital
cameras and other devices.
DCF Protocol
DCF devices (digital cameras, printers, etc.) can exchange
images with each other. DCF protocol defines a format for
image file data and the folder structure for file memory, so
images can be viewed using another manufacturers DCF
camera or printed on a DCF printer.

Built-in Memory and Memory Card
Precautions
Note that the folder named DCIM is the parent (top)
folder of all the files in memory. When transferring
memory contents to a hard disk, CD-R, MO disk, or other
external storage, treat all the contents inside a DCIM
folder as a set and always keep them together. You can
change the name of the DCIM folder on your computer.
Changing the name to a date is a good way to keep track
of multiple DCIM folders. However, if you even want to
copy the folders back to the cameras file memory, be
sure you change the name of the DCIM folder back to
DCIM first. The camera does not recognize any folder
name other than DCIM.
Memory Folders and files must be stored in accordance
with the Memory Folder Structure shown on page 209 in
order for the camera to be able to recognize them
correctly.

This is a CCD phenomenon known as “vertical
smear”, and does not indicate malfunction of the
camera. Note that vertical smear is not recorded
with the image in the case of a snapshot, but it is
recorded in the case of a movie.
