CONNECTING TO EXTERNAL EQUIPMENT

•Camera aperture (F) values are based on the widest optical zoom (1X). Using telephoto can cause slight lens darkness. Adjust the aperture and ISO sensitivity settings of the external flash unit and the camera as required when using optical zoom.

•When using a zoom flash, set the coverage angle of the flash for a focal distance of 40mm or less.

•The optical axis of the lens may not match that of the external flash unit, even if the lens is pointed straight forward. If this happens, try expanding the coverage angle (decreasing the guide number) of the flash unit.

•ISO sensitivity values for a digital camera are slightly different from those for silver oxide film. Because of this, you may have to make adjustments of the ISO setting of your external flash unit to obtain the desired results.

Connecting to a Computer

The CD-ROM disc that comes bundled with your camera includes special software (Photo Loader) that makes transfer of images from the camera to a computer quick and easy. The following types of computer connections are supported.

■Windows

USB port connection

Serial port (RS-232C) connection

■Macintosh

USB port connection

•Photo Loader does not run on the Apple Macintosh. You can, however, use the USB cable to connect the camera to a Macintosh and upload images manually.
