M SCENE RECOGNITION

The camera automatically analyzes the composi-

tion and selects the appropriate scene mode ac-

cording to the subject and shooting conditions

(P14).

• Focus and exposure are determined by the first frame

in each series. The flash turns off automatically; the

previously-selected flash mode is restored when the

shooting mode is changed.

• Frame rate varies with shutter speed, shooting condi-

tions, and the number of pictures in each burst.

• The number of pictures that can be taken in a single

burst varies with the scene and camera settings. The

number of pictures that can be recorded depends on

the memory available.

BAUTO

Choose for crisp, clear snapshots. This mode is

recommended in most situations.

• If the self-timer is used when L and N are selected,

only one picture will be taken when the shutter but-

ton is pressed.

• At a setting of J, white lines may appear in bright

areas of the image; these can be avoided by choosing

K mode.

frames together perfectly.

• The desired results may not be achieved with mov-

ing subjects, subjects close to the camera, unvarying

subjects such as the sky or a field of grass, subjects

that are in constant motion, such as waves and wa-

terfalls, or subjects that undergo marked changes in

brightness. Panoramas may be blurred if the subject

is poorly lit.

Intelligent Face Detection

Intelligent Face Detection allows the camera to automatically detect human faces and set focus and

exposure for a face anywhere in the frame for shots that emphasize portrait subjects. Choose for

group portraits (in horizontal or vertical orientations) to prevent the camera from focusing on the back-

ground.

3Cautions

Turn Intelligent Face Detection on.

• If no face is detected when the shutter button is

pressed halfway (P101), the camera will focus

on the subject at the center of the display and

red-eye will not be removed.

To use Intelligent Face Detection, press MENU/

OK to display the shooting menu and select

ON for b FACE DETECTION (P69).

• If the subject moves as the shutter button is

pressed, their face may not be in the area indi-

cated by the green border when the picture is

taken. If the number of faces is large, additional

time may be required for processing.

• If a face is detected, it

will be indicated by a

green border.

• If there is more than

one face in the frame,

the camera will select

the face closest to the

center; other faces are

indicated by white

borders.

reflective object.

• Dark subjects and subjects that absorb rather than

reflect light, such as hair or fur.

• Insubstantial subjects, such as smoke or flame.

• Subjects that show little contrast with the back-

ground (for example, subjects in clothing that is the

same color as the background).

• Subjects positioned in front of or behind a high-

contrast object that is also in the focus frame (for

example, a subject photographed against a back-

drop of highly contrasting elements).

FMacro and Super Macro Modes (Close-ups)

For close-ups, press the selector left (F) to choose from the macro options shown below.

Choose from F(macro mode),

G(super macro mode), or

OFF (macro mode off)

When macro mode is in effect, the camera focuses on subjects near the center of the frame. Use the

zoom control to compose pictures. In super macro mode, optical zoom can not be adjusted and the

flash can not be used.

1Notes

• Use of a tripod is recommended to prevent blur caused by camera shake.

• Flash compensation may be required when using the flash (P76).

• Using the flash at close range may cast a lens shadow. Zoom a little or have more distance from the subject.

NUsing the Flash (Intelligent Flash)

When the flash is used, the camera’s Intelligent Flash system instantly analyzes the scene based on

such factors as the brightness of the subject, its position in the frame, and its distance from the camera.

Flash output and sensitivity are adjusted to ensure that the main subject is correctly exposed while

preserving the effects of ambient background lighting, even in dimly-lit indoor scenes. Use the flash

when lighting is poor, for example when shooting at night or indoors under low light.

Raise the flash.

Press the flash pop-up button to raise the flash.

Turning the Flash Off

Lower the flash where flash photography is prohibited or to capture natural lighting

under dim light. At slow shutter speeds, kwill be displayed to warn that pictures

may be blurred; use of a tripod is recommended.

Choose a flash mode.

Press the selector right (N). The flash mode changes each time the selector

is pressed.

3Caution

The flash may fire several times with each shot. Do not move the camera until shooting is com-

plete.

1Note

The peripheral part of an image may be dark when using the flash.

Red-Eye Removal

When Intelligent Face Detection is active (P30), and ON is selected for B RED EYE REMOVAL in

the setup menu (P81), red-eye removal is available in K, L, and M.

Red-eye removal minimizes “red-eye” caused when light from the flash is reflected from the subject’s

retinas as shown in the illustration at right.

J Using the Self-Timer

The self-timer lamp on the front of the camera will blink

immediately before the picture is taken. If the two-second

timer is selected, the self-timer lamp will blink as the timer

counts down.

Intelligent Face Detection

Because it ensures that the faces of portrait subjects will be in focus, Intelligent Face Detection (P30) is recom-

mended when using the self-timer for group portraits or self-portraits. To use the self-timer with Intelligent Face

Detection, select S10 SEC or R2 SEC in the self-timer menu and then press the shutter button all the way

down to start the timer. The camera will detect faces while the timer is counting down and adjust focus and ex-

posure immediately before the shutter is released. Be careful not to move until the picture has been recorded.

mode is selected, or the camera is turned off.

After quitting the software and disconnect-

ing the camera, open the control panel and

use “Programs and Features” (Windows 8/

Windows 7/Windows Vista) or “Add or Remove

Programs” (Windows XP) to uninstall MyFinePix

Studio.

Turn the camera off and connect a USB cable

(available from third-party suppliers) as shown,

Viewing Pictures on a Computer

For more information on using the software, start

the application and select the appropriate option

from the Help menu.

3 Cautions

• If a memory card containing a large number of images

is inserted, there may be a delay before the software

starts and you may be unable to import or save im-

ages. Use a memory card reader to transfer pictures.

• Make sure that the computer does not display a mes-

sage stating that copying is in progress and that the

indicator lamp is out before turning the camera off or

disconnecting the USB cable (if the number of imag-

es copied is very large, the indicator lamp may remain

lit after the message has cleared from the computer

display). Failure to observe this precaution could re-

sult in loss of data or damage to the memory card.

• Disconnect the camera before inserting or removing

memory cards.

• In some cases, it may not be possible to access pic-

tures saved to a network server using the software in

the same way as on a standalone computer.

• The user bears all applicable fees charged by the

phone company or Internet service provider when

using services that require an Internet connection.

Caring for the Camera

To ensure continued enjoyment of the product, observe the following precautions.

Storraggee aanndd UUssee

■ Condensation

If the camera will not be used for an extended pe-

riod, remove the battery and memory card. Do

not store or use the camera in locations that are:

• exposed to rain, steam, or smoke

• very humid or extremely dusty

• exposed to direct sunlight or very high tempera-

tures, such as in a closed vehicle on a sunny day

• extremely cold

Sudden increases in temperature, such as occur

when entering a heated building on a cold day,

can cause condensation inside the camera. If this

occurs, turn the camera off and wait an hour be-

fore turning it on again. If condensation forms on

the memory card, remove the card and wait for

the condensation to dissipate.

Clleeaniing

• subject to strong vibration

Use a blower to remove dust from the lens and

monitor, then gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth.

Any remaining stains can be removed by wiping

gently with a piece of FUJIFILM lens-cleaning pa-

per to which a small amount of lens-cleaning fluid

has been applied. Care should be taken to avoid

scratching the lens or monitor. The camera body

can be cleaned with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use

alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.

• exposed to strong magnetic fields, such as near

a broadcasting antenna, power line, radar emit-

ter, motor, transformer, or magnet

• in contact with volatile chemicals such as pesti-

cides

• next to rubber or vinyl products

■ Wateerr aanndd SSandd

Exposure to water and sand can also damage the

camera and its internal circuitry and mechanisms.

When using the camera at the beach or seaside,

avoid exposing the camera to water or sand. Do

not place the camera on a wet surface.

Traveeling

Keep the camera in your carry-on baggage.

Checked baggage may suffer violent shocks that

could damage the camera.

Notices

• Specifications subject to change without notice. FUJIFILM shall not be held liable for damages resulting from

errors in this manual.

• Although the monitor is manufactured using advanced high-precision technology, small bright points and

anomalous colors (particularly in the vicinity of text) may appear. This is normal for this type of monitor and

does not indicate a malfunction; images recorded with the camera are unaffected.

• Digital cameras may malfunction when exposed to strong radio interference (e.g., electric fields, static electric-

ity, or line noise).

• Due to the type of lens used, some distortion may occur at the periphery of images. This is normal.
