1) The SyncFocus is powered by two AAA batteries (not included). Insert batteries into the compartment (G), using the polarity marks inside for reference. A power meter in the
lower left corner of the display indicates battery condition.
2) Insert an SD card into slot (K) if greater storage is desired. The card will click into place. You may use SD cards (not MMC cards) up to 2 GB capacity.
Note: If the card you insert was previously used in other devices, format it before taking photos. Press the Enter button (D) to enter Play mode, then press the MENU button (B). Press the
Minus key (D) once to select “Format”, then press Enter. Note the warning that this will erase all files – make sure you have backed up any files you wanted to keep. Press
the Plus key (D) to select “OK”, then press Enter to format the card.
3) Raise the LCD display (E), and press the ON/OFF button (A) briefly. The camera will automatically turn itself off after two minutes of inactivity (this can be changed using the
“Auto Off” option in the Setup menu).
4) The Date/Time imprint feature is turned on by default. To set the date, press the MENU button. Find “Clock Set” using the Minus key and press Enter. Now set the Year, Month,
Date, Hour and Minute (in order from left to right), using the Plus/Minus keys to make changes, and the Right key to move to the next item. Once date & time are set, press
the Enter button. Use “Date Stamp” to set your preference (month first, year first or off). Press Enter then Exit menu to return to the preview display. Reset the date/time if
you replace batteries.
5) Hold the camera steady with both hands and press the SNAP button (L) to take a still photo. When using a tripod, you can help avoid the effects of camera shake by plugging the
supplied remote shutter release cable into the jack next to the SD card slot rather than SNAP to take photos.
6) To shoot a video, press the Right key (D) three times until the red movie camera icon appears at the top right corner of the display (see “LCD Preview Display Icons”-#10). You
can then start shooting the video at any time by pressing the SNAP button. To stop recording the video, press the SNAP button again. By default, videos are recorded as a 15
second loop (“instant replay”). To change this, press Menu-the first item is “Resolution”. Press Enter, then select “Video Size”. Use the Plus/Minus buttons to select a different
video resolution and frame rate combination (which determines loop length-8, 15, 30 or 60 seconds). You also have the option to select a “Norm” video setting if you prefer to
shoot standard video clips, instead of loops that re-record (refresh) automatically.
