Quick Start Basics

Blurred Background

This function analyzes a burst of consecutive images

and then blurs the background behind the main

subject. This creates an effect that really makes the

subject stand out, just like photographs taken with a

single-lens reflex camera.

Wide Shot

With this feature, a number of images are shot and

then combined to produce an image with a super-wide

angle of view that exceeds the widest angle of view

possible with the lens. Converted to 35 mm

equivalents, the focal distances available with this

feature enable shooting with approximate angles of

view of 14 mm and 18 mm.

High Speed Movie

Movies can be recorded at up to 1000 frames per

second. This makes it possible to clearly view

phenomena that are invisible to the human eye, in

slow motion.

FHD Movie Recording

You can record movies in high-quality FHD.

Quick Start Basics

. Returning the Monitor Screen to Its Normal Position

1. Holding the monitor screen at

point

, rotate the screen

downwards to the back of the

camera.

2. Push the monitor screen

downwards with your finger at

point

to slide the monitor

screen down as far as it will go.

Quick Start Basics

Your camera has a built-in stand. You can pull out

the stand and keep the camera stable on a tabletop

or other surface while the monitor screen is tilted

upwards 180 degrees. When using the camera on a

tabletop or other surface for landscape (horizontal)

orientation shots, you can adjust the vertical angle of

the camera somewhat by changing how far you pull

out the stand.

IMPORTANT!

• When using the camera on a tabletop or other

surface for portrait (vertical) orientation shots, pull

the stand out as much as possible so the camera

is stable. Pulling the stand out part way in this

case can cause the camera to become unstable

and fall over.

• Even when using the stand to adjust the vertical

angle of the camera while shooting with landscape (horizontal) orientation, take

care to extend the stand far enough to avoid camera instability, which can cause it

to fall over.

• Whenever using the stand, make sure that the location where you place the

camera is stable and relatively level.

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-130)

for power. Never try to use any other type of battery.

1. Open the battery cover.

Using the Stand

First, charge the battery prior to use.

direction indicated by the arrow as

you slide the battery into the

camera. Press the battery in until

the stopper secures it in place.

3. Close the battery cover.

To replace the battery

1. Open the battery cover and

remove the current battery.

2. Load a new battery.

Quick Start Basics

You can use either of the two following methods to charge the camera’s battery.

• USB-AC adaptor

• USB connection to a computer

. To charge with the USB-AC adaptor

The adaptor lets you charge the battery while it is loaded in the camera.

While the camera is turned off, connect in the sequence shown below (

Charging time: Approximately 240 minutes

IMPORTANT!

• A battery that has not been used for a long time, or ambient temperature extremes

can cause charging to take longer than normal. If charging takes longer than about

five hours, a timer will terminate it automatically, even if the battery is not fully

charged. This is indicated by the back lamp flashing red. If the battery has not been

used for a very long time, charging may be terminated automatically and the back

lamp may start flashing red after only about 60 minutes. In either case, disconnect

the USB cable from the camera and then reconnect it to resume charging.

• Make sure that you insert the cable connector into the [USB/AV] port until you feel

it click securely into place. Failure to insert the connector fully can result in poor

communication or malfunction.

• Note that even while the connector is fully inserted, you

still will be able to see the metal part of the connector as

shown in the illustration.

Quick Start Basics

IMPORTANT!

• The first time you connect the camera to your computer with the USB cable, an

error message may appear on your computer. If this happens, disconnect and then

reconnect the USB cable.

• A battery that has not been used for a long time, certain types of computers, and

connection conditions can cause charging to take more than approximately five

hours, which will trigger a timer that terminates charging automatically, even if the

battery is not fully charged. If this happens, disconnect and then reconnect the

USB cable to restart charging. To complete charging faster, use of the included

USB-AC adaptor is recommended.

• If the battery has not been used for a very long time, charging may terminate

automatically and the back lamp may start flashing red or go out after only about

60 minutes. In either case, use of the USB-AC adaptor that comes with the camera

is recommended.

• If you turn on the camera while charging over a USB connection to a computer is in

progress, the camera will establish a USB connection with the computer. Though

charging normally should continue at this time, certain types of computers or

connection environments may stop charging if supply power is low. This will be

indicated by the camera’s back lamp lighting green.

• Charging is not performed while the connected computer is in the hibernate mode.

• With the two charging methods described above, you can charge the camera’s

battery (NP-130) without removing it from the camera. You also can charge the

battery using an optionally available charger unit (BC-130L). Never use any other

type of charger device. Attempting to use a different charger can result in

unexpected accident.

• This model can be charged only via from USB 2.0 specification USB port only.

• USB charging devices and power supply devices are subject to fixed standards.

Use of an inferior device or a device that is not up to standard can cause

malfunction and/or failure of your camera.

• Operation is not guaranteed in the case of a computer built or modified by you.

Even in the case of a commercially available computer, certain USB port

specifications may make it impossible to charge via the USB cable.

• A battery that is still warm immediately after normal use may not charge fully. Give

the battery time to cool before charging it.

• A battery discharges slightly even when it is not loaded in the camera. Because of

this, it is recommended that you charge the battery immediately before you need to

use it.

• Charging the camera’s battery may cause interference with TV and radio reception.

If this happens, plug the USB-AC adaptor into an outlet that is further away from

the TV or radio.

• Actual charging time depends on current battery capacity and charging conditions.

• Do not use the USB-AC adaptor with any other device.

• Never use the power cord with another device.

Quick Start Basics

The first time you load a battery into the camera, a screen appears for configuring the

display language, date, and time settings. Failure to set the date and time correctly

will cause the wrong date and time data to be recorded with images.

IMPORTANT!

• A screen for language selection will not appear in step 2 of the procedure below if

you purchased a camera intended for the Japanese market. To change the display

language from Japanese in this case, use the procedure under “Specifying the

Display Language (Language)” (page 170). Note that a version of this manual in

the language you select may not be included with a camera intended for the

Japanese market.

• Camera models sold in certain geographic areas may not support display language

selection.

1. Press [ON/OFF] (Power) to turn on the

camera.

2. Use [8], [2], [4], and [6] to select the

language you want and then press

[SET].

3. Use [8] and [2] to select a date style and then press [SET].

Example: July 10, 2015

YY/MM/DD

* 15/7/10

DD/MM/YY

* 10/7/15

MM/DD/YY

* 7/10/15

4. Set the date and the time.

Use [4] and [6] to select the setting you want to

change and then use [8] and [2] to change it.

To switch between 12-hour and 24-hour format, select

“24h” and then use [8] and [2] to change the setting.

5. After setting the date and time, use [4] and [6]

to select “Apply” and then press [SET].

Configuring Basic Settings the First Time You Turn On the

Camera

If you make a mistake configuring display language, date, or time settings with the

above procedure, refer to the following pages for information about how to correct

the settings.

– Display language: page 170

– Date and time: page 169

[ON/OFF] (Power)

Quick Start Basics

NOTE

• Each country controls its local time offset and the use of summer time, and so they

are subject to change.

• Removing the battery from the camera too soon after configuring time and date

settings for the first time can cause the settings to be reset to their factory defaults.

Do not remove the battery for at least 24 hours after configuring settings.

Though the camera has built-in memory that can be used to store images and

movies, you probably will want to purchase a commercially available memory card for

greater capacity. The camera does not come with a memory card. Images recorded

while a memory card is loaded are saved to the memory card. When no memory card

is loaded, images are saved to built-in memory.

• For information about memory card capacities, see page 199.

– SD Memory Card

– SDHC Memory Card

– SDXC Memory Card

Use one of the above types of memory card.

• The above are supported memory card types as of September 2012.

• This camera supports use of SD memory cards of the following types and

capacities: SD memory cards up to 2GB, SDHC memory cards from 2GB up to

32GB, SDXC memory cards from 32GB up to 2TB. Note that the ability to use any

particular card with this camera, even if it satisfies the above capacity and type

requirements, is not guaranteed.

• This camera supports use of Eye-Fi cards and FlashAir cards.

. Memory Card Handling Precautions

Certain types of cards can slow down processing speeds, and even can make it

impossible to store High Quality movies correctly. Also, use of certain types of

memory cards slows down data transfer and increases the time it takes to record

movie data, which can result in movie frames being dropped. The Y indicator on the

monitor screen turns yellow to indicate that frames are being dropped. In order to

avoid problems such as these, use of an Ultra High Speed Type SD memory card is

recommended. Note, however that CASIO makes no guarantees about the operation

of any Ultra High Speed Type SD memory card used with this camera.

Snapshot Tutorial

IMPORTANT!

• Foreign matter on the flash window can react with the light of the flash, producing

some smoke and abnormal odor. Though this does not indicate malfunction, oil

from your fingers and other foreign matter when left on the flash window can

become difficult to clean off later. Because of this, you should make it a regular

habit to wipe the window clean regularly with a soft, dry cloth.

NOTE

• Take care so your fingers and the strap do not block the flash.

• The desired effect may not be obtained when the subject is too far away or too

close.

• Flash charging time (page 204) depends on operating conditions (battery

condition, ambient temperature, etc.).

• Shooting with flash turned off when lighting is dim results in a slow shutter speed,

which can cause image blur due to camera movement. Under such conditions,

secure the camera with a tripod, etc.

• With red eye reduction, the flash is fired automatically in accordance with

exposure. It does not fire in areas where lighting is bright.

• The presence of outdoor sunlight, fluorescent lighting, or some other light source

can cause abnormal image colors.

• Select ? (Flash Off) for the flash setting when shooting in areas where flash

photography is prohibited.

• The flash > (Auto Flash) and ¥ (Red Eye Reduction) flash modes are not

supported while A, S, or M is selected for the recording mode. If you want the flash

to fire, select < (Flash On) as the flash mode.

Red-eye Reduction

Using the flash to shoot at night or in a dimly lit room can cause red spots inside the

eyes of people who are in the image. This is caused when the light from the flash

reflects off of the retina of the eye. When red-eye reduction is selected as the flash

mode, the camera fires a pre-flash to cause the irises in the eyes of any people in the

image to close, which reduces the chance of red eye.

Note the following important points when using red-eye reduction.

• Red-eye reduction does not work unless the people in the image are looking

directly at the camera (flash).

• Red-eye reduction may not work very well if the subjects are located far away from

the camera.

Snapshot Tutorial

The metering mode determines what part of the subject is metered for exposure.

1. In the REC mode, press [SET].

2. Use [8] and [2] to select the (Metering) Control Panel option, and

Recording Movies

IMPORTANT!

• Spending a long time using movie recording will cause the camera to become

slightly warm to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

• Shooting movies for long periods in areas where temperature is relatively high can

cause digital noise (dots of light) to appear in the movie image. A rise in the

camera’s internal temperature also may force movie recording to stop

automatically. If this happens, stop recording and allow the camera to cool down,

which should cause normal operation to resume.

• Using the camera’s built-in memory or certain types of memory cards can slow

down processing speed. Whenever possible use an Ultra High-Speed Type

memory card. Note, however, that not all operations can be guaranteed even if an

Ultra High-Speed Type memory card is used. Certain movie quality settings can

result in too much time being required to record data, which can result in breaks in

the image and/or audio during playback. If this happens, the Y will turn yellow on

the monitor screen.

NOTE

• Zoom operations are supported during movie recording (page 57). Zoom is

disabled during high speed movie recording. To use zoom for high speed movie

recording, perform the zoom operation before you press [0] (Movie) to start

recording.

• Both Single SR Zoom (page 61) and Multi SR Zoom (page 62) are disabled during

movie recording.

• The effects of camera movement in an image become more pronounced when you

shoot close up or with a large zoom factor. Because of this, use of a tripod is

recommended under these conditions.

• Except for High Speed Movie, Continuous AF (page 109) is performed during

movie recording while “AF” (Auto Focus) or “Macro” is selected for the “Focus”

setting.

• Face Detection is disabled during normal FHD and STD, and high speed movie

recording. Face Detection is enabled when shooting movies with Premium Auto

PRO (FHD and STD).
