Quick Start Basics

Your CASIO camera is packed with a powerful selection of features and functions to make recording of digital images easier, including the following main functions:

Premium Auto

Select Premium Auto recording and the camera automatically determines whether you are shooting a subject or scenery, and other conditions. Premium Auto delivers higher image quality than standard Auto. → See page 24 for more information.

Make-up Function

The Make-up Function smoothes the skin texture of the subject and softens facial shadows caused by harsh sunlight for better looking portraits. →See page 38 for more information.

BEST SHOT

Simply select the sample scene you want and the camera sets up automatically. Then all you need to do is press the shutter button for perfect images. See page 46 for more information.

First, charge the battery prior to use.

Note that the battery of a newly purchased camera is not charged. Perform the steps below to load the battery into the camera and charge it.

  • Your camera requires a special CASIO rechargeable lithium ion battery (NP-80) for power. Never try to use any other type of battery.

To load the battery

  1. Open the battery cover.
  2. Load the battery.
  3. Close the battery cover.

Charge the Battery

You can use either of the two following methods to charge the camera's battery:

  • USB-AC adaptor
  • USB connection to a computer

Troubleshooting and error codes

Problem Possible Cause and Recommended Action
The subject is out of focus in the recorded image. The image may not be focused properly. When composing the image, make sure the subject is located inside the focus frame.
The flash does not fire.
  1. If (Flash Off) is selected as the flash mode, change to another mode (page 35).
  2. If the battery is dead, charge it (page 14).
  3. If a BEST SHOT scene that uses (Flash Off) is selected, change to a different flash mode (page 35) or select a different BEST SHOT scene (page 46).
The red (Flash Off) icon is displayed on the monitor screen and the flash does not fire. The flash unit may be malfunctioning. Contact a CASIO authorized service center or your original retailer. Note that though the flash will not fire, you still can use the camera for non-flash shots.
Camera powers down during Self-timer countdown. The battery may be dead. Charge the battery (page 14).
The monitor screen image is out of focus.
  1. You may be using Manual Focus and have not focused the image. Focus the image (page 53).
  2. You may be using (Macro) for scenery or portraits. Use Auto Focus for scenery and portrait shots (page 52).
  3. You may be trying to use Auto Focus or (Infinity) when shooting a close-up shot. Use the (Macro) for close ups (page 52).
There is a vertical line in the monitor screen image. Shooting a very brightly lit subject can cause a vertical band to appear in the monitor screen image. This is a CCD phenomenon known as “vertical smear”, and does not indicate malfunction of the camera. Note that vertical smear is not recorded with the image in the case of a snapshot, but it is recorded in the case of a movie.
There is digital noise in images.
  1. Sensitivity may have been increased automatically for a dark subject, which increases the chance of digital noise. Use a light or some other means to illuminate the subject.
  2. You may be attempting to shoot in a dark location with (Flash Off) selected, which can increase digital noise and make images appear coarse. In this case, turn on flash (page 35) or use lights for illumination.
  3. Shooting with a high ISO sensitivity setting or with the Lighting feature can cause an increase in digital noise. Use a light or some other means to illuminate the subject.
