Using the Histogram
Number of pixels→

A histogram shows thebrightness distribution of animage. The horizontal axis
represents brightness (dark at
the left and bright at the right)
and the vertical axis represents
the number of pixels.
The shape of the histogram(Dark)←Brightness→ (Bright)
before and after shooting tells
you whether the brightness andcontrast are correct or not, and lets you decide if you need to adjust the
exposure and take a picture again.
Setting the Exposure (EV Compensation) 1p.108

26

Understanding Brightness
If the brightness is correct, the graph peaks in the middle. If the image is
too dark, the peak is on the left side, and if it is too bright, the peak is on
the right side.
Dark image

Correct image

Bright image

When the image is too dark, the part to the left is cut off (dark portions)and when the image is too bright, the part to the right is cut off (bright
portions).
Understanding Contrast
The graph peaks gradually for images in which contrast is balanced. The
graph peaks on both sides but sinks in the middle for images with a large
difference in contrast and low amounts of mid-level brightness.

The charging indicator lights while the battery is charging and turns off
when charging is finished.

4

Remove the battery from the battery charger whencharging is finished.

31• Do not use the supplied battery charger (D-BC92) to charge batteries
other than the rechargeable lithium-ion battery D-LI92, as the battery
charger may overheat or be damaged.
• The battery has reached the end of its service life when it starts to run
down soon after being charged. Replace it with a new battery.
• If the battery is inserted correctly but the charging indicator fails tolight, the battery may be faulty. Replace it with a new battery.

1
Getting Started

The time required to fully charge the battery is about 120 minutes (max.).
(The charging time may vary depending on the ambient temperature andcharging conditions.) The appropriate ambient temperature for charging
the battery is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).

Installing the Battery
Use the rechargeable lithium-ion battery D-LI92 that is provided with thecamera. Charge the battery before using it in the camera for the firsttime.

Be sure to read “About the Battery Charger and the AC Adapter” (p.2)
before using the AC adapter.
• Be sure to read the operation manual accompanying the AC adapter
kit K-AC92 before using the adapter.

Installing the SD Memory Card

• Be sure to use this camera to format (initialize) an SD Memory
Card that is unused or has been used on other cameras or digital
devices. Refer to “Formatting an SD Memory Card” (p.188) for
instructions on formatting.
• When you intend to use a brand-new Eye-Fi card for the first time,
copy the Eye-Fi Manager installation file to your computer before
formatting the card.
• Make sure that the camera is turned off before inserting or removing
the SD Memory Card.

1
Getting Started

This camera uses either an SD Memory Card or an SDHC Memory Card.
(Both cards are referred to as SD Memory Cards hereafter.) Captured
images and sound files are saved on the SD Memory Card when a cardis inserted in the camera. They are saved in the built-in memory when acard is not inserted (p.41).

• The still picture storage capacity varies depending on the capacity of
the SD Memory Card and the selected number of recorded pixels andquality level (p.40).
• The self-timer lamp blinks while the SD Memory Card is being
accessed (data is being recorded or read).

Backing Up Data
The camera may not be able to access data in the built-in memory in the caseof a malfunction. Use a computer or other device to back up important data inanother location.

1
Getting Started• The SD Memory Card is equipped with a writeprotect switch. Setting the switch to LOCK
prevents new data from being recorded on thecard, the stored data from being deleted, andthe card from being formatted by the camera or
Write-protect
computer.
r appears on the display when the card is
switchwrite-protected.
• Care should be taken when removing the SD Memory Card immediately afterusing the camera, as the card may be hot.
• Keep the card cover closed and do not remove or turn the camera off while
the data is being played back or saved to the card, or the camera is connected
to a computer with the USB cable, as this may cause the data to be lost or thecard to be damaged.
• Do not bend the SD Memory Card or subject it to violent impact. Keep it awayfrom water and store away from high temperature.
• Do not remove the SD Memory Card during formatting as this may damage
the card and render it unusable.
• The data on the SD Memory Card may be deleted in the following
circumstances. We do not accept any liability for data that is deleted(1) when the SD Memory Card is mishandled by the user.
(2) when the SD Memory Card is exposed to static electricity or electricalinterference.
(3) when the SD Memory Card has not been used for a long time.
(4) when the SD Memory Card is ejected or the battery is removed while thedata on the card is being recorded or accessed.
• If it is not used for a long time, the data on the card may become unreadable.
Be sure to regularly make a backup of important data on a computer.
• Avoid using or storing the card where it may be exposed to static electricity orelectrical interference.
• Avoid using or storing the card in direct sunlight or where it may be exposed
to rapid changes in temperature or to condensation.
• When using an SD Memory Card with a slow recording speed, recording may
stop while you are taking movies even when there is adequate space in thememory, or shooting and playback may take a long time.
• Be sure to format SD Memory Cards that are unused or have been used onanother camera. Refer to “Formatting an SD Memory Card” (p.188).

About the red-eye phenomenon
Taking pictures using the flash may cause the subject’s eyes to appear red in
the resulting picture. This phenomenon occurs when the light from the flash isreflected in the subject’s eyes. It can be reduced by illuminating the area aroundthe subject or moving closer to the subject and zooming out to a wider angle.
Setting the flash mode to c or d is also an effective way of reducing red eyes.
If the subject’s eyes appear red despite such precautions, they can be correctedby the red-eye compensation function (p.166).
