Frequently Asked Questions
How can I maximize is the battery life?
Actual battery life is variable depending on the operating hours of the monitor, operating frequen-
cy of the flash, type of battery and temperature of the operating environment. As battery power
consumption is particularly high when the monitor is on, it is recommended to turn the monitor
off whenever possible. You do not have to worry about battery life if you use the optional AC
adapter.
What do I do if the date saved with the pictured data is not correct?
The date is not set at the factory. You must set the date yourself before shooting images
(
Page 26). Note that the date and time settings are cleared when the camera is left for about
a dayr without batteries.
Can a filter or hood be attached to the camera?
No.
Can an external flash be attached to the camera?
No.
Why do the eyes look red when they are shot under flash light?
With any kind of compact camera, eyes tend to look red when the flash is used. This is because
the retinas reflect the flash light. The occurrence frequency of this phenomenon is variable
depending on individuals and the shooting conditions such as the surrounding light. In general,
this phenomenon tends to occur more frequently with bright-eyed people than with dark-eyed
people. The occurrence frequency can be reduced considerably by setting the flash mode to the
Red-Eye Reduction Flash mode (
Page 57).
