The number of shots s
hown here is an approximate guide to
the number of consecutive shots that can be taken based on
50% flash usage at normal temperatures. However, the
actual number of available shots will vary depending on the
ambient temperature when the camera is used and the
amount of charge in the battery. The number of availab
shots will be lower in cold conditions.

✽ The LCD monitor on your digital camera is manufactured
using advanced high-precision technology. Even so, small
bright points and anomalous colors (particularly around text)
may appear on the monitor. These are normal display
characteristics and do not indicate a fault with the monitor.
This phenomenon will not appear on the recorded image.
✽ The operation error may be caused in a digital camera by
le
the strong radio interference (i. e. electric fields, static
electricity, line noise, etc.).
✽ Due to the nature of the lens, the edges of photographed images
may appear distorted. This is normal and does not indicate a fault.
Explanation of Terms
AF/AE Lock:
On the FinePix M603, pressing the shutter button down half way locks the focus and exposure settings (AF
and AE lock). If you want to focus on a subject that is not centered in the frame or change the picture
composition after the exposure is set, you can obtain good results by changing the composition after the AF
and AE settings are locked.
Auto Power Save Function:
If the camera is not used in any way for 30 seconds, this function switches features such as the LCD
monitor off (Sleep mode) to prevent battery depletion and the waste of power when the AC power adapter is
connected. If the camera is then left unused for a further period, the Auto Power Save function switches the
camera off. This period can be set to 2 minutes or 5 minutes on this camera.
h The Auto Power Off function does not operate in PC mode, during automatic playback, or if it is disabled
during setup.
DPOF:
Digital Print Order Format
DPOF is a format used for recording information on a storage media (image memory card, etc.) that allows
you to specify which of the frames shot using a digital camera are printed and how many prints are made of
each image.
EV:
A number that denotes Exposure Value. The EV is determined by the brightness of the subject and sensitivity
(speed) of the film or CCD. The number is larger for bright subjects and smaller for dark subjects. As the
brightness of the subject changes, a digital camera maintains the amount of light hitting the CCD at a
constant level by adjusting the aperture and shutter speed.
When the amount of light striking the CCD doubles, the EV increases by 1. Likewise, when the light is halved,
the EV decreases by 1.

Frame rate (fps):
The frame rate is a unit used to indicate the number of images (frames) played back per second. This camera
shoots movie files at 10 consecutive frames per second, a rate that is expressed as 10 fps. By comparison,

TV images are played at 30 fps.

PC Card:

PC Card Standard:
A standard for PC cards determined by the PCMCIA.
PCMCIA:

Smear:
A phenomenon specific to CCDs whereby white streaks appear on the image when there is a very strong light
source, such as the sun or reflected sunlight, in the photography screen.
VGA/QVGA:
Graphics standards for PCs. Images are displayed at 640 × 480 and 320 × 240 pixels respectively.
WAVE:
A standard format used on Windows systems for saving audio data. WAVE files have the ".WAV" file
extension and the data can be saved in either compressed or uncompressed format. Uncompressed
recording is used on this camera.
WAVE files can be played back on a personal computer using the following software:
Windows
Macintosh: QuickTime Player
White Balance:
Whatever the kind of the light, the human eye adapts to it so that a white object still looks white. On the other
hand, devices such as digital cameras see a white subject as white by first adjusting the color balance to suit
the color of the ambient light around the subject. This adjustment is called matching the white balance. A
function that automatically matches the white balance is called an Automatic White Balance function.
Exif Print Format is a newly revised digital camera file format that contains a variety of shooting information
for optimal printing.
