Insert the batteries in the camera as described below. 1 Open the battery-chamber cover. A Note Be sure the camera is off before opening the battery-chamber cover. C Cautions Do not open the battery- chamber cover when the camera is on. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to image files or memory cards. Do not use excessive force when handling the battery-chamber cover. 2 Insert the batteries. Insert the batteries in the orientation shown by the “E” and “F” marks inside the battery chamber. 3 Close the battery-chamber cover. C Cautions Insert the batteries in the correct orientation. Never use batteries with peeling or damaged casing or mix old and new batteries, batteries with different charge levels, or batteries of different types. Failure to observe these precautions could result in the batteries leaking or overheating. Never use manganese or Ni-Cd. Replace AA alkaline batteries with batteries of the same make and grade as those supplied with the camera. If the battery-chamber cover can not be latched easily, confirm the battery orientation first. Do not use excessive force to latch it. Battery casing Battery casing First Steps 5 Inserting a Memory Card Although the camera can store pictures in internal memory, SD memory cards (sold separately) can be used to store additional pictures. When no memory card is inserted , d appears in the monitor and internal memory is used for recording and playback. Note that because camera malfunction could cause internal memory to become corrupted, the pictures in internal memory should periodically be transferred to a computer and saved on the computer hard disk or on removable media such as CDs or DVDs. The pictures in internal memory can also be copied to a memory card (see page 70). To prevent internal memory from becoming full, be sure to delete pictures when they are no longer needed. When a memory card is inserted as described below, the card will be used for recording and playback. ■ Compatible Memory Cards SanDisk SD and SDHC memory cards have been tested and approved for use in the camera. Use a card with a class 4 write speed (4 MB/s) or better when shooting HD movies. A complete list of approved memory cards is available at http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_cameras/index.html. Operation is not guaranteed with other cards. The camera can not be used with MultiMediaCard (MMC) or xD-Picture cards. C Caution Memory cards can be locked, making it impossible to format the card or to record or delete images. Before inserting a memory ca rd, slide the write-protect switch to the unlocked position. Write-protect switch 6 Inserting a Memory Card ■ Inserting a Memory Card 1 Turn the camera off, and open the battery-chamber cover. 2 Insert the memory card firmly until you hear (feel) a click. Holding the memory card in the orientation shown below, slide it all the way in. CLICK Be sure card is in correct orientation; do not insert at an angle or use force. If the memory card is not inserted correctly, d will appear in the monitor and images will be recorded to internal memory. 3 Close the battery-chamber cover. First Steps 7 Inserting a Memory Card Removing Memory Cards Be sure the camera is off before opening the battery-chamber cover. Press the card in and then release it slowly. The card can now be removed by hand. C Cautions The memory card may spring out if you remove your finger immediately after pushing the card in. Memory cards may be warm to the touch after being removed from the camera. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction. 8 Inserting a Memory Card C Cautions F o rmat memory cards before first use, and be sure to reformat all memory cards after using them in a computer or other device. For more information on formatting memory cards, see page 76. Memory cards are small and can be swallowed; keep out of reach of children. If a child swallows a memory card, seek medical assistance immediately. Do not turn the camera off or remove the memory card while the memory card is being formatted or data are being recorded to or deleted from the card. Failure to observe this precaution could damage the card. miniSD or microSD adapters that are larger or smaller than the standard dimensions of an SD card may not eject normally; if the card does not eject, take the camera to an authorized service representative. Do not forcibly remove the card. Do not affix labels to memory cards. Peeling labels can cause camera malfunction. Movie recording may be interrupted with some types of memory card. The data in internal memory may be erased or corrupted when the camera is repaired. Please note that the repairer will be able to view pictures in internal memory. Formatting a memory card or internal memory in the camera creates a folder in which pictures are stored. Do not rename or delete this folder or use a computer or other device to edit, delete, or rename image files. Always use the camera to delete pictures from memory cards and internal memory; before editing or renaming files, copy them to a computer and edit or rename the copies, not the originals.

Instead, details visible using optical zoom are simply enlarged, producing a slightly “grainy” image. Discharge : The capacity of rechargeable Ni-MH batteries will drop if they are repeatedly charged without first being fully discharged. Full capacity can be restored by repeatedly discharging the batteries using the l DISCHARGE option in the camera setup menu and recharging them using a battery charger (sold separately). DPOF (Digital Print Order Format): A standard that allows pictures to be printed from “print orders” stored in internal memory or on a memory card. Th e information in the order includes the pictures to be printed and the number of copies of each picture. EV (Exposure Value): The exposure value is determined by the sensitivity of the image sensor and the amount of light that enters the camera while the image sensor is exposed. Each time the amount of light doubles, EV increases by one; each time the amount of light is halved, EV decreases by one. The amount of light entering the camera can be controlled by adjusting aperture and shutter speed. Exif Print : A standard that allows information stored with pictures to be used for optimal color reproduction during printing. JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group): A compressed file format for color images. The higher the compression rate, the greater the loss of information and more noticeable drop in quality when the picture is displayed. Motion JPEG: An AVI (Audio Video Interleave) format that stores images and sound in a single file, with the images recorded in JPEG format. Motion JPEG files can be played in QuickTime 3.0 or later. Smear: A phenomenon specific to CCDs which causes white streaks to appear when very bright light sources, such as the sun or reflected sunlight, appear in the frame. WAV (Waveform Audio Format): A standard Windows audio file format. WAV files have the extension “*.WAV” and may be compressed or uncompressed. The camera uses uncompressed WAV. WAV files can be played using Windows Media Player or QuickTime 3.0 or later. White balance : The human brain automatically adapts to changes in the color of light, with the result that objects that appear white under one light source still appear white when the color of the light source changes. Digital cameras can mimic this adjustment by processing images according to the color of the light source. This process is known as “white balance.” 94 Internal Memory/Memory Card Capacity The following table shows the recording time or number of pictures available at different image qualities. All figures are approximate; file size varies with the scene recorded, producing wide variations in the number of files that can be stored. The number of exposures or length remaining may not diminish at an even rate. You can take a few pictures for trial without a memory card. ■ FinePix AX290/AX280/AX260/AX250/AV190/AV180/AV160/AV150 Still Pictures (FINE) Movies i y 3:2 r16:9 7 n m16:9 m p )1280* !* 9* Internal memory Internal memory (approx. 24 MB)(approx. 24 MB) 3 3 4 6 15 22 23 96 5 s 19 s 41 s 1 GB1 GB 130 150 180 270 580 850 920 3650 4 min. 13 min. 28 min. 2 GB2 GB 270 310 370 540 1170 1710 1850 7310 8 min. 27 min. 57 min. 4 GB4 GB 550 630 750 1090 2350 3430 3700 14620 17 min. 54 min. 114 min. 8 GB8 GB 1110 1270 1500 2180 4700 6870 7400 29250 35 min. 108 min. 228 min. 16 GB16 GB 2220 2550 3010 4370 9410 13740 14800 58520 70 min. 216 min. 456 min. * Individual movies cannot exceed 2GB in size, regardless of capacity of memory card. 95 Appendix Internal Memory/Memory Card Capacity ■ FinePix AX240/AX230/AX210/AX200/AV140/AV130/AV110/AV100 Still Pictures (FINE) Movies y ! 3:2 g16:9 0 n m16:9 m p )1280* !* 9* Internal memory Internal memory (approx. 9 MB)(approx. 9 MB) 1112588 3 6 3 s 6 s 1 4 s 1 GB1 GB 160 180 210 360 580 850 920 3650 7 min. 13 min. 28 min. 2 GB2 GB 320 360 430 730 1170 1710 1850 7310 14 min. 27 min. 57 min. 4 GB4 GB 650 730 860 1470 2350 3430 3700 14620 29 min. 54 min. 114 min. 8 GB8 GB 1300 1460 1730 2940 4700 6870 7400 29250 58 min. 108 min. 228 min. 16 GB16 GB 2610 2920 3460 5880 9410 13740 14800 58520 117 min. 216 min. 456 min. * Individual movies cannot exceed 2GB in size, regardless of capacity of memory card. 96 System Model Fin ePix AX290/AX280/AX260/AX250/AV190/ AV180/AV160/AV150 FinePix AX240/AX230/AX210/AX200/AV140/ AV130/AV110/AV100 Effective pixels 14 million 12.2 million CCD 1/2.3 -in., square-pixel CCD with primary color filter Storage media Internal memory Approx. 24 MB SD/SDHC memory cards (see page 5) Internal memory Approx. 9 MB SD/SDHC memory cards (see page 5) File system Compliant with Design Rule for Camera File System (DCF), Exif 2.2, and Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) File format Still pictures : Exif 2.2 JPEG (compressed) Movies: Motion JPEG AVI Image size (pixels) i 4,288 × 3,216 y 3:2 4,288 × 2,864 y 4,000 × 3,000 !3:2 4,000 × 2,666 r16:9 4,288 × 2,416 7 3,072 × 2,304 g16:9 4,000 × 2,248 0 2,816 × 2,112 n 2,048 × 1,536 m16:9 1,920 × 1,080 n 2,048 × 1,536 m16:9 1,920 × 1,080 m 1,600 × 1,200 p 640 × 480 m 1,600 × 1,200 p 640 × 480 Lens Focal length FinePix AX290/AX280/AX260/AX250/AX240/AX230/AX210/AX200 Fujinon 5 × optical zoom lens, F3.6 (wide angle) - F5.9 (telephoto) f=5.0 mm-25.0 mm (35-mm format equivalent: 28 mm-140 mm) FinePix AV190/AV180/AV160/AV150/AV140/AV130/AV110/AV100 Fujinon 3 × optical zoom lens, F2.9 (wide angle) - F5.2 (telephoto) f=5.7 mm-17.1 mm (35-mm format equivalent: 32 mm-96 mm) Specifications 97 Appendix Specifications System
