SETTING THE DA TE AND TIME
The date and time feature enables you to record the date in a
choice of four formats: (month/day/year , day/month/year,
year/month/day) or time (day/hour/minute) directly onto the film. It
features a quartz clock and automatic calendar through the year
2019, including leap years. With the camera held horizontally , the
data is recorded onto the lower right portion of the picture; in the
vertical format with the shutter release up, imprinting occurs on
the lower left portion but positioned horizontally on the picture.
Date and Time Imprinting
Press the Mode Button (b) , located on the film door (20) , to select
the desired data type; then take the picture. Following the
exposure, the Print Indicator (a) blinks in the data panel for
approximately two-to-three seconds to confirm imprinting.
NOTE: The imprinted data may be difficult to read if the subject
area over which it is superimposed is bright or non-uniform. If the
data panel is consistently dim, replace the date-back battery (see
Replacing the Date-Back Battery).
NOTE: If you want to stop the self-timer operation before
the picture is taken, repress the self-timer button or turn
the camera off.

mode.

appears on the LCD Panel (3) .
3. Press the Shutter Button (1) to take the picture.
NOTE: The camera automatically returns to the auto-
flash/start position after you take the picture.
Tips for Better Pictures
• Keep your pictures simple. Move close enough to your
subject so it fills the viewfinder but not closer
than 0.8 m.
• T ake pictures at the subject’s level. Kneel down to
take pictures of children and pets.
• Hold your camera vertically to capture tall, narrow
subjects, such as waterfall, skyscraper , or single
person.
• Add interest to your picture by framing it with a tree
branch, a window , or even the rails of a fence.
• Keep the sun behind you. This provides best subject
illumination.
3. Press the Shutter Button (1) to take the picture.
4. To cancel the red-eye-reduction feature, turn the
camera off or press the mode-selection button to
return to the auto-flash/start position.
NOTE: When you take flash pictures using this
feature, the camera fires a short flash before the
picture is taken. The subject’s eye pupil closes
partially to reduce the red-eye effect.
Using the Fill Flash and Flash Off
Fill Flash
— Bright light indoors or outdoors from
backlit subjects can create dark shadows (especially
on faces) in high-contrast scenes. Use fill flash to
lighten these shadows.
Flash Off
— When you do not want to use the
flash, especially indoors where flash is prohibited,
such as in theaters and museums, or in dim lighting
situations, use flash off. Use a tripod (tripod
socket [19] ) or place the camera on another firm
support.
1. Press the On/Off Button (2) to turn the camera ON.
2. Press the Mode-Selection Button (4) to select fill
flash (29) or flash off (30) . Make sure the correct
indicator for the selected mode appears on the LCD
Panel (3) .
3. Press the Shutter Button (1) to take the picture.
NOTE: The camera automatically returns to the auto-
flash/start position after you take the picture.
Flash Tips
• T urn on room lights and have the subject face the
lights to minimize red eyes in pictures.
• Stand at an angle to shiny surfaces like windows or
mirrors to avoid flash reflection and bright spots in
your pictures.
• Keep your fingers and other objects away from the
picture-taking lens, flash, and auto-focus windows
to avoid dark or light pictures.
4. Press the shutter button completely down to take
the picture.
Flash-to-Subject Distance
ISO Film Speed Flash-to-Subject Distance
100 0.8 to 3.7 m
200 0.8 to 4.0 m
400 1.0 to 5.6 m
1000 1.6 to 8.9 m
Using the Red-Eye Reduction
Some people’s eyes (and some pets’) can reflect flash
with a red glow . T o minimize red eye in flash or fill-
flash pictures, use the red-eye-reduction feature.
1. Press the On/Off Button (2) to turn the camera ON.
2. Press the Mode-Selection Button (4) once to move
to the red-eye-reduction position. Make sure the
Red-Eye-Reduction Indicator (32) appears on the
LCD Panel (3) .

film, you can automatically rewind the film by pressing
