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 68). 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. 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 card, slide the write-protect switch to the unlocked position.

89 Glossary

Digital zoom: Unlike optical zoom, digital zoom does not increase the amount of visible detail. Instead, details visible using optical zoom are simply enlarged, producing a slightly “grainy” image. 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. The 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

Appendix 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.” 90 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.
