BATTERY  
This camera uses a 3-volt lithium KODAK K123LA (or equivalent) Battery that supplies  
power for all camera operations.  
Low-Battery Indicator  
It’s time to replace the battery when—  
• the battery symbol (32) “blinks” on the LCD panel (15).  
all indicators on the LCD panel disappear and the shutter button (12) cannot be released.  
Battery Tips:  
• Keep spare batteries with you at all times. Lithium batteries perform consistently  
until they suddenly die.  
• Read and follow all warnings and instructions supplied by the battery manufacturer.  
• Keep batteries away from children.  
• Do not attempt to disassemble, recharge or short circuit the battery, or subject it to high  
temperature or fire.  
• Store batteries in their original packaging prior to use.  
SETTING THE DATE OR TIME  
With this camera, you can record the date (month/day/year, day/month/year or  
year/month/day) or time (hour/minute) of each exposure directly onto the film. The  
information appears on the back of your prints when processed. It features a clock  
(24-hour time display) and automatic calendar that includes leap years.  
1. Press the date-menu button (1) to select the desired data type for date or time settings  
or select dashes for no databack information.  
2. Press the date-select button (17) in succession to select the “blinking” month, day, or  
year (d) or hour or minute (e).  
3. Press the date-enter button (16) to change the data.  
4. Press the date-select button to complete the setting.

LOADING THE FILM  
1. Turn the film-door latch (8) to the “open” position.  
2. Insert the film cassette completely into the film chamber . Do not force the film  
cassette into the film chamber.  
3. Close the film door (25) to start the auto-film advance. The LCD panel (15) shows  
the number of exposures (b).  
NOTE: After you close the safety-interlock film door, you cannot open the film  
door until the film is completely rewound into the film cassette.  
TAKING PICTURES  
You can take Classic (C), HDTV (H), and Panoramic (P) pictures on the same film  
cassette. Your photo-processing cost will be based on the format sizes(s) that  
you use to expose the film (see table on page 5).  
1. Turn the on/off dial (22),  
2. Move the print-size selector (14), to the desired format (C, H, or P).  
3. Look through the viewfinder eyepiece (21) and place the auto-focus circle (g) on  
the subject. For a sharp picture, stand at least 2 ft (0.60 m) from your subject.  
When your subject is closer than 2.6 ft (0.8 m) with the lens in the 30 mm position,  
or closer than 5 ft (1.5 m) with the lens in the 60 mm position, compose your  
picture using the close framing guide (f) in the viewfinder  
counterclockwise to the ON position.  
4. Press the shutter button (12),

to take the picture.  
the wide-mode position after approximately 3 minutes.  
Using the Focus Lock  
This camera automatically focuses on whatever is within the auto-focus circle of the  
viewfinder eyepiece. To get a sharp photograph, make sure the auto-focus circle is on  
your main subject. If you want to take a picture with the subject positioned outside of the  
auto-focus circle, use the focus lock as follows:  
1. Place the auto-focus circle (g) on the subject that you want focused in the picture.  
2. Partially depress and hold the shutter button (12) to lock the focus position.  
3. While still partially depressing the shutter button, move the camera until your  
subject is where you want it within the viewfinder eyepiece (21).  
4. Press the shutter button completely down to take the picture.

Using the Self-Timer  
You can include yourself in pictures by using the self-timer feature.  
1. Use a tripod (tripod socket [24]) or place the camera on another firm support.  
2. Turn the on/off dial (22),  
3. Press the self-timer/red-eye-reduction button (18) twice to move to the self-timer  
position. Make sure the self-timer indicator (30) appears on the LCD panel (15).  
counterclockwise to the ON position.  
4. Press the shutter button (12). The self-timer lamp (4) “blinks” approximately  
10 seconds before the picture is taken.  
NOTE: If you want to stop the self-timer operation before the picture is taken, turn  
the camera off.  
Tips for Better Pictures  
• Hold the camera steady when taking pictures  
• Move close enough to your subject so it fills the viewfinder but not closer than  
2 ft (0.60 m).  
Take pictures at the subject’s level. Kneel down to take pictures of children and pets.  
• Hold your camera vertically to capture tall, narrow subjects, such as a waterfall,  
skyscraper, or single person.  
• Add interest to your picture by framing it with a tree branch, window, or even the  
rails of a fence.  
• Keep the sun behind you for best subject illumination.

TAKING FLASH PICTURES  
In dim light, such as indoors or outdoors in heavy shade or on dark overcast days, you  
need flash. Your camera features automatic flash that fires when you need it. It also  
provides automatic daylight fill flash under certain bright-light conditions where  
shadows may exist. When you partially depress the shutter button (12) and the flash-  
indicator lamp (20) glows red, the flash is fully charged and ready for picture-taking  
(see table below for other Flash-Lamp Signals and page 8 for the recommended  
Flash-to-Subject Distance).

Using the Red-Eye Reduction  
Some people’s eyes (and some pets’) can reflect flash with a red glow. To minimize  
red eyes in flash or fill-flash pictures, use the red-eye reduction.  
1. Turn the on/off dial (22),  
counterclockwise to the ON position.  
2. Press the self-timer/red-eye-reduction button (18) once to move to the red-eye-  
reduction position. Make sure the red-eye-reduction indicator (27) appears on the  
LCD panel (15).  
3. Have your subject look directly at the red-eye-reduction lamp (4).  
4. Press the shutter button (12) to take the picture.  
5. To exit from the red-eye-reduction mode, press the self-timer/red-eye-reduction  
button twice or turn the camera off.  
13  
 
Using Infinity Focus, Flash Off, Fill Flash, and Nighttime View  
Infinity Focus—To capture sharp, distant scenery, use the infinity-focus mode.  
Flash Off—When you do not want to use the flash, especially indoors where flash is  
prohibited, such as in theaters and museums, or in dim lighting situations, use flash  
off. Use a tripod (tripod socket [24]) or place the camera on another firm support.  
Fill Flash—Bright light indoors or outdoors from backlit subjects can create dark  
shadows (especially on faces) in high-contrast scenes. Use fill flash to lighten these  
shadows.  
Nighttime ViewTo lighten your subject in front of a night scene, use the nighttime-  
view mode.  
1. Turn the on/off dial (22),  
2. Press the flash-mode button (19) to select infinity focus (31), flash off (36),  
fill flash (33), or nighttime view (34).  
counterclockwise to the ON position.  
3. Press the shutter button (12) to take the picture.  
4. Press the flash-mode button to return to the auto-flash/start position (35).

Flash Tips  
• Turn on room lights and have the subject face the lights to minimize red eyes in pictures.  
• Stand at an angle to shiny surfaces like windows or mirrors to avoid flash reflection  
and bright spots in your pictures.  
• Keep your fingers and other objects away from the picture-taking lens, flash, and  
meter-cell window to avoid dark or light pictures.  
UNLOADING THE FILM  
When the film is fully rewound, the film cassette symbol and 0 (c) blink on the LCD  
panel (15). Do not remove the film from the camera until the film is FULLY  
rewound. When you remove the film cassette from the camera, the cassette symbol  
and E (a) blink.  
Using the Rewind Button  
If you don’t want to take pictures on the entire film cassette, you can automatically  
rewind the film by pressing the rewind button (9). Once you’ve used this feature,  
you cannot reload the same film cassette into the camera.
