[. . . ] Do not expose batteries to fire or high temperatures. Never try to recharge, short-circuit or open ordinary batteries. Do not mix batteries of different make or age. Follow the usual rules for the use of batteries. [. . . ] This is how it looks: Taking pictures This is what it`s for: In conjunction with the different resolution settings, variation of the compression level allows very precise tailoring of the desired picture quality to your specific requirements. Optimum quality is obtained by using the highest resolution/largest file size (1704 x 2272 pixels) with lowest compression (Fine). Depending on the capacity of your memory card, you may have to make some compromises ­ for example away from home ­ in order to capture a sufficient number of pictures. It is therefore advisable to add a mobile, battery-powered hard disk to your equipment so that you can easily load down your pictures. 41 Rollei Fototechnic GmbH, Salzdahlumer Strasse 196, D-38126 Braunschweig, Tel 0531-6800-0, Fax 0531-6800-243, eMail info@rollei. de Taking pictures This is how it works: Selecting pixel sharpness This is how it looks: Mode dial set to Camera icon This is what it`s for: A special mode of the camera allows the pixels provided by the CCD sensor to be saved with different sharpness characteristics (digital sharpening). This feature should, however, not be confounded with focusing of the lens. Press the MENU button on the camera back and use the four-way control to select either Hard, Normal or Soft under Image Sharpness. When the camera is switched off, it will automatically reset to Normal = unchanged saving of image data. In most cases it is advisable to save the image data unchanged, that is, neither digitally sharpened nor softened. Digital sharpening enhances the visual impression of sharpness by contour sharpening through numerical manipulation of pixel characteristics (for example, at the borders of bright and dark details). Digital softening is analogous However, since this overall technique will often enhance unwanted detail as well, such as skin blemishes in portraits, it is usually more convenient to sharpen or soften (very carefully) only later, using suitable PC image-processing software. 42 Rollei Fototechnic GmbH, Salzdahlumer Strasse 196, D-38126 Braunschweig, Tel 0531-6800-0, Fax 0531-6800-243, eMail info@rollei. de Mode dial set to Camera icon This is how it works: Selecting white balance This is how it looks: Taking pictures This is what it`s for: With its automatic white balance, the camera automatically adjusts to the color temperature of available light sources.

In Playback mode (with the mode dial set to the Playback icon), press the MENU button, then select Zoom using the four-way control. If you now press the Right arrow of the control, the details of the image will be displayed at 2x magnification. A magnifier icon and , , 2. 0x" will also appear on the screen. The image section displayed can now be shifted in all four directions with the aid of the four-way control. ( ) To go back to standard display, press the MENU button. The magnifier mode is ideal for checking image detail and focus. In portraits or group shots, it lets you check whether all of the people in the picture have their eyes open so that you may repeat the shot, if necessary. Other subjects may be checked for optimum focus. [. . . ] Should this be unsuccessful, please consult your dealer. Problem Automatic focusing impossible (green focus lamp blinking rapidly ­ approx. 8x per second) when shutter release is depressed halfway. Cause Are you trying to focus on a subject that is unsuitable for AF? [. . . ]
