e USING THE FLASH3 AdvancedFeatures

e Forced Flash

Use this flash mode to photograph backlitscenes, such as a subject against a window orin the shade of a tree, or to obtain the correctcolors when you are shooting under lightingsuch as fluorescent tubes. In this mode, theflash fires in bright as well as dark conditions.

o Red-Eye Reduction

Use this mode to ensure that the subject's eyesappear natural when photographing people in low-light conditions.The flash fires a pre-flash just before the picture istaken and then fires again to take the actual picture.

◆ Red-Eye Effect◆When you use the flash to photograph people in low-light conditions, their eyes sometimes appear red in the picture. Thisis caused by the light of the flash reflecting off the inside of the eye. Use Red-Eye Reduction flash mode to effectivelyminimize the likelihood of the red-eye effect.Take the following measures also to make Red-Eye Reduction mode more effective:● Get the subjects to look at the camera. ● Get as close as possible to the subjects.

If any liquid at all leaks from the batteries, wipe the batterycompartment thoroughly and then load new batteries.If any battery fluid comes into contact with your hands orclothing, flush the area thoroughly with water. Note thatbattery fluid can cause loss of eyesight if it gets in youreyes. If this occurs, do not rub your eyes. Flush the fluid outwith clean water and contact your physician for treatment.

■ Disposing of BatteriesWhen disposing of batteries, do so in accordance with yourlocal waste disposal regulations.

■ Notes on Small Rechargeable Batteries (Ni-MHor Ni-Cd batteries)

● Always use the special battery charger to charge AA-sizeNi-MH or Ni-Cd batteries. Charge the batteries asdescribed in the instructions provided with the batterycharger.

● Do not use the battery charger to charge batteries otherthan those specified for use with the charger.

● Note that the batteries may feel warm immediately afterbeing charged.

● Ni-MH and Ni-Cd batteries are not charged at shipment.Be sure to charge the batteries before using them.

● The camera mechanism is such that it draws a minuteamount of current even when the camera is switched off.Take particular care not to leave Ni-MH or Ni-Cdbatteries in the camera for a long period of time as theycan become excessively discharged and no longer beusable even when charged.

Always use the AC-5V AC Power Adapter AC-5V (soldseparately) with the FinePix1400 ZOOM Digital Camera.The use of an AC power adapter other than the AC-5Vcould result in damage to your camera.● Ensure that you do not touch the contact areas on the

AC power adapter against any other metal object as thiscould cause a short circuit.

● Do not plug the AC power adapter into the DIGITALsocket as this could damage your camera.

● Do not plug in the AC power adapter while you areoperating the camera using batteries. Switch the cameraoff first.

● Do not load the batteries while you are operating thecamera using the AC power adapter. Switch the cameraoff first.

● If you disconnect the AC power adapter when there areno batteries in the camera, the date and time settings willbe lost and must be reset.

Notes on Using the AC Power Adapter

● Ni-MH and Ni-Cd batteries self-discharge even when notused. Always charge Ni-MH and Ni-Cd batteries beforeusing them. If the time for which a battery provides powershortens markedly when it has been correctly charged,this indicates that the battery has reached the end of itseffective life and should be replaced.

74

● AA-size alkaline, Ni-MH (nickel metal hydride), or Ni-Cdbatteries can be used with this camera.Do not use AA-size manganese or lithium batteries inyour FinePix1400 ZOOM because the heat generated bythe batteries could damage the camera or causemalfunctions.

● Because different brands of alkaline batteries havedifferent capacities, the life of some batteries (the lengthof time for which they can be used) may be considerablyshorter than that of the alkaline batteries supplied withthis camera.

● Do not use batteries that are leaking, deformed,discolored or exhibit any other obvious abnormality.

● Do not store batteries in very warm or moist locations.● Keep the batteries out of the reach of babies and small

children.● When loading the batteries in the camera, ensure that the

battery polarity (5 and 4) is as indicated on the camera.● Do not use new batteries together with used batteries. In

the case of rechargeable batteries, do not use chargedand discharged batteries together. Do not use batteriesof different types or brands together.

● If you do not intend to use the camera for a long period oftime, remove the batteries from the camera. (Note that ifthe camera is left with the batteries removed, the timeand date settings are cleared.)

● The batteries may feel warm immediately after beingused. Before removing the batteries, switch the cameraoff and wait until the batteries cool down.

● When replacing the batteries, always fit 4 new batteries.Here, 'new batteries' refers to either recently purchasedunused alkaline batteries, or Ni-Cd or Ni-MH (nickel metalhydride) batteries that have recently been fully rechargedtogether.

● Battery performance deteriorates at low temperatures(+10°C or below) and the time for which they can be usedshortens. This is particularly true of alkaline batteries. In coldconditions, put the batteries in your pocket or a similar placeto warm them before loading them into the camera. If youuse a body warmer to warm the batteries, ensure that theyare not in direct contact with the warmer.

Explanation of TermsAF/AE Lock: On this camera, pressing the shutter button down halfway locks the exposure settings (AF/AE

lock). If you want to change the composition of your shot after you set the exposure, you canget excellent results by using AF/AE lock before you compose your shot and take the picture.

Auto Power Off Function: If the camera is not used in any way for two minutes or more, the Auto Power Off functionswitches the camera off. This is to prevent battery depletion and to avoid wasting power whenthe camera is connected to the AC power adapter. Auto Power Off does not operate when theAuto Power Off function is disabled or a USB connection is used.

DPOF: Digital Print Order FormatDPOF is a format used for recording information on a storage media (image memory card, etc.)that allows you to specify which of the frames shot using a digital camera are printed and howmany prints are made of each image.

EV: A number that denotes exposure. The EV is determined by the brightness of the subject andsensitivity (speed) of the film or CCD. The number is larger for bright subjects and smaller fordark subjects. As the brightness of the subject changes, a digital camera maintains the amountof light hitting the CCD at a constant level by adjusting the aperture and shutter speed.When the amount of light striking the CCD doubles, the EV increases by 1. Likewise, when thelight is halved, the EV decreases by 1.

JPEG: Joint Photographics Experts GroupA file format used for compressing and saving color images. The compression ratio can beselected, but the higher the compression ratio, the poorer the quality of the expanded image.

White Balance: Regardless of the type of lighting, the human eye adapts so that a white object still looks white.On the other hand, devices such as digital still cameras register a white subject as white by firstadjusting their internal color balance to match the color of the ambient light around the subject.This adjustment process is referred to as matching the white balance. A function thatautomatically matches the white balance is called an auto white balance function.
