LCD Panel
The liquid crystal panel of the monitor screen uses high-precision technology that
provides a pixel yield in excess of 99.99%. This means that some very small number
of pixels may not light or may remain lit at all times. This is due to the characteristics
of the liquid crystal panel, and does not indicate malfunction.

What is a digital camera?
A digital camera stores images on a memory card, so you can record and
delete images a countless number of times.
You can use the images you record in a variety of different ways.
Store images on your
computer.
Print images. Attach images to e-mail.
PlayDelete
Record
14 Quick Start Basics
Your CASIO camera is packed with a powerful selection of features and functions to
make recording of digital images easier, including the following three main functions.
What you can do with your CASIO camera
BEST SHOT
Simply select the sample scene you want and the
camera sets up automatically. Then all you need
do is press the shutter button for perfect images.
Anti Shake
The camera corrects automatically to minimize
image blur due to camera movement and high-
speed subject movement.
See page 39 for more information.
See page 52 for more information.
See page 37 for more information.
Face Detection
Point the camera at a person and it automatically
detects the person’s face for beautiful portraits
every time.
15 Quick Start Basics
Note that the battery of a newly purchased camera is not charged. Perform the steps
under “To charge the battery” to bring the battery to a full charge.
Your camera requires a special CASIO rechargeable lithium ion battery (NP-60) for
power. Never try to use any other type of battery.
1. Positioning the positive + and
negative - terminals of the battery
with those of the charger unit, load
the battery into the charger unit.
2. Plug the charger unit into a
household power outlet.
About 90 minutes are required to reach
full charge. The [CHARGE] lamp will go
out when charging is complete. Unplug
the power cord from the power outlet
and then remove the battery from the
charger.
First, charge the battery prior to use.

16 Quick Start Basics
Other Charging Precautions
Use the special charger (BC-60L) to charge the special lithium ion battery (NP-60).
Never use any other type of charger device. Attempting to use a different charger
can result in unexpected accident.
A battery that is still warm due to normal use may not charge fully. Give the battery
time to cool before charging it.
A battery discharges slightly even when it is not loaded in the camera. Because of
this, it is recommended that you charge the battery immediately before you need to
use it.
Charging the camera’s battery may cause interference with TV and radio reception.
If this happens, plug the charger into an outlet that is further away from the TV or
radio.
Actual charging time depends on current battery capacity and charging conditions.

For information about how to replace the memory
card, see page 130.
IMPORTANT!
Never insert anything besides a supported memory card (page 21) into the memory
card slot.
Should water or any foreign object ever get into the card slot, immediately turn off
the camera, remove the battery, and contact your retailer or nearest CASIO
authorized service center.
You need to format a new memory card before using it for the first time.
1. Turn on the camera and press [MENU].
2. Select the “Set Up” tab, select “Format” and then press [6].
3. Use [8] and [2] to select “Format” and then press [SET].
IMPORTANT!
Formatting a memory card that already has snapshots or other files on it, will delete
its contents. Normally you do not need to format a memory card again. However, if
storing to a card has slowed down or if you notice any other abnormality, re-format
the card.
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 or SDHC memory card, formatting on a computer can
result in non-conformity with the SD format, causing problems with compatibility,
operation, etc.
Before formatting a new Eye-Fi card to use it for the first time, copy the Eye-Fi

.Pixels
A digital camera image is a collection of small
dots called “pixels”. The more pixels there are
in an image, the more detail there will be.
However, you generally can do with fewer
pixels when printing an image (L size) through
a print service, attaching an image to e-mail,
when viewing the image on a computer, etc.
.About image sizes
The size of an image indicates how many pixels it contains, and is expressed as
horizontal pixelsxvertical pixels.

3. Use [4] and [6] to select an image size and then press [SET].
The initial factory default image size setting is “10M”.
Selecting “3:2” records images with an aspect ratio of 3:2, which matches the
standard aspect ratio of print paper.
The letters “HDTV” stand for “High Definition Television”. An HDTV screen has an
aspect ratio of 16:9, which makes them wider than the usual 4:3 aspect ratio of
television screens of the past. Your camera can record images that are compatible
with the aspect ratio an HDTV screen.

36 Snapshot Tutorial
NOTE
Take care so your fingers and the strap do not block the flash.
The desired effect may not be obtained when the subject is too far away or too
close.
Flash charging time (page 145) depends on operating conditions (battery
condition, ambient temperature, etc.).
Shooting with flash turned off when lighting is dim results in a slow shutter speed,
which can cause image blur due to camera movement. Under such conditions,
secure the camera with a tripod, etc.
With red eye reduction, the flash is fired automatically in accordance with
exposure. It does not fire in areas where lighting is bright.
The presence of outdoor sunlight, fluorescent lighting, or some other light source
can cause abnormal image colors.
Select “Flash Off” for the flash setting when shooting in areas where flash
photograph is prohibited.
Red-eye Reduction
Using the flash to shoot at night or in a dimly lit room can cause red spots inside the
eyes of people who are in the image. This is caused when the light from the flash
reflects off of the retina of the eye. When red-eye reduction is selected as the flash
mode, the camera fires a pre-flash to cause the irises in the eyes of any people in the
image to close, which reduces the chance of red eye.
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 (flash).
Red-eye reduction may not work very well if the subjects are located far away from
the camera.

49 Recording Movie Images and Audio
NOTE
Spending a long time using movie recording will cause the camera to become
slightly warm to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.
The camera also records audio. Note the following points when shooting a movie.
Take care that the microphone is not blocked by your fingers,
etc.
Good recording results are not possible when the camera is
too far away from what you are trying to record.
Operating camera buttons while shooting can cause button
noise to be picked up in the audio.
Shooting a very bright subject can cause a vertical band to
appear in the monitor screen image. This does not indicate
malfunction. The band will not be recorded in a snapshot, but will be recorded in
the case of a movie.
Use of certain types of memory cards increase the time it takes to record movies,
which can cause movie frames to be lost. This condition is indicated by » and Y
flashing on the monitor screen. To avoid loss of movie frames, use of a memory
card with a maximum transfer speed of at least 10MB per second is recommended
(page 131).
Only digital zoom can be used for zooming during movie recording. Since optical
zoom is not possible while recording a movie, zoom as required before pressing
the shutter button to start recording.
The effects of camera movement in an image become more pronounced when you
shoot close up or with a large zoom factor. Because of this, use of a tripod is
recommended under these conditions.

52 Using BEST SHOT
Using BEST SHOT
BEST SHOT provides you with a collection of sample “scenes” that show a variety of
different types of shooting conditions. When you need to change the setup of the
camera, simply find the scene that matches what you are trying to achieve, and the
camera sets up for it automatically. This helps to minimize the chance of ruined
images due to poor exposure and shutter speed settings.
1. In the REC mode, press [BS].
This will display a menu of BEST
SHOT scenes.
The initial default selection is
t (Auto).
2. Use [8], [2], [4], and [6] to
move the boundary to the
scene you want to select.
The scene menu has multiple
pages. Use [8] and [2] to
scroll between menu pages.
You can access information
about the currently selected
scene. See page 53 for details.
To return to normal snapshot recording, select Scene 1 t (Auto). Pressing
[MENU] while the scene selection screen or scene information screen is
displayed will cause the boundary to jump directly to t (Auto).

The settings of the scene you selected remain in effect until you select a
different scene.
To select a different BEST SHOT scene, repeat the above procedure from
step 1.
4. Press the shutter button.
NOTE
The BEST SHOT YouTube scene sets up the camera for recording movies that are
optimized for uploading to YouTube. Movies recorded with the YouTube scene are
stored in a special folder to make them easy to locate for uploading (page 105).
Maximum recording time while the YouTube scene is selected is 10 minutes.
.Using Scene Information Screen
To find out more about a scene, select it with the
boundary on the scene selection screen, and then press
the zoom button.
To return to the scene menu, press the zoom button
again.
To scroll between scenes, use [4] and [6].
To configure the camera with the settings for the
currently selected scene, press [SET]. To return to the
scene information screen for the currently selected BEST SHOT scene, press [BS].
54 Using BEST SHOT
.BEST SHOT Precautions
Some scenes like Night Scene and Fireworks result in a slow shutter speed setting.
Since a slow shutter speed increases the chance of digital noise in the image, the
camera automatically performs a digital noise reduction process when either of
these scenes is selected. This means that it will take a bit longer for the image to
be saved which is indicated by the back lamp flashing green. Do not perform any
key operation during that time. Also, it is a good idea to use a tripod to avoid image
blur due to camera movement when shooting at slow shutter speeds.
Your camera includes a sample scene that optimizes settings for auction site
images. Depending on your camera model, the sample scene is named either “For
eBay” or “Auction”. Images you record using the auction site sample scene are
stored in a special folder so you can easily find them on your computer (page 105).
High Sensitivity
The high sensitivity setting is disabled whenever the camera’s flash fires.
High sensitivity may not produce the desired results in very dark conditions.
When shooting with slow shutter speeds, use a tripod to protect against blurring
due to camera movement.
Under certain lighting conditions, the camera will perform an automatic noise
filtering operation to reduce digital noise in the image. This operation causes the
camera to take longer than normal to save the image and be ready for the next
shot.
BEST SHOT scene images were not shot using this camera.
Images shot using a BEST SHOT scene may not produce the results you expected
due to shooting conditions and other factors.
You can modify the camera settings that are made after you select a BEST SHOT
scene. Note, however, that the BEST SHOT settings revert to their defaults when
you select another BEST SHOT scene or turn off the camera.
