General Precautions
Be sure to observe the following important precautions
whenever using the QV-R3/QV-R4.
All references in this manual to “this camera” and “the cam-
era” refer to the CASIO QV-R3/QV-R4 Digital Camera.
• Never try to take pictures or use the built-in display while
operating a motor vehicle or while walking. Doing so cre-
ates the danger of serious accident.
• Never try to open the case of the camera or attempt your
own repairs. High-voltage internal components create the
risk of electric shock when exposed. Always leave mainte-
nance and repair work up to CASIO service center.
• Never look at the sun or any other bright light through the
camera’s viewfinder. Doing so can damage your eyesight.
• Keep the small parts and accessories of this camera out of
the reach of small children. If swallowed accidentally, con-
tact your physician immediately.
• Never fire the flash in the direction of a person operating a
motor vehicle. Doing so can interfere with the driver’s vi-
sion and create the danger of accident.
• Never fire the flash while it is too close to the subject’s
eyes. Intense light from the flash can cause eye damage if
it is fired too close to the eyes, especially with young chil-
dren. When using the flash, the camera should be at least
one meter from the eyes of the subject.
• Easy Image Transfer
Transfer images to a computer simply by connecting the
camera with a USB cable.
• Bundled with Photo Loader and Photohands
Your camera comes bundled with the latest version of
Photo Loader, the popular application that automatically
loads images from your camera to your PC. Also included
is Photohands, an application that makes image retouch-
ing quick and easy.
• DCF Data Storage
DCF (Design rule for Camera File system) data storage
protocol provides image inter-compatibility between the
digital camera and printers.
• Digital Print Order Format (DPOF)
Images can be printed easily in the sequence you want
using a DPOF compatible printer. DPOF can also be used
when specifying images and quantities for printing by pro-
fessional print services.
• PRINT Image Matching
II
Compatible
Images include PRINT Image Matching
II
data (mode set-
ting and other camera setup information). A printer that
supports PRINT Image Matching
II
reads this data and ad-
justs the printed image accordingly, so your images come
out just the way you intended when you recorded them.
