GETTING THE MOST OUT OF YOUR
CAMERA
Your dual camera can record video clips in Full High Definition*. It includes an
operation mode that lets even novice shutterbugs record and play back
without getting flustered, as well as software with which you can easily create
your original DVDs. In addition, it comes with the “Xacti Library” feature for
saving recorded data to hard disk and managing files without using a
computer.
High-quality images with “Full High
Definition*” (pages 50, 60 and 85)
Your camera can capture full high definition (full HD) 1920 Ă— 1080-pixel video
clips. Also, the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC standard is used for formatting video
files. You get both compact file size and high picture quality in one high-
performance camera.
* “Full High Definition” by SANYO Dual Camera signifies recording at a
resolution of 1920 pixels horizontally Ă—1080 pixels vertically.
English 18
Includes SIMPLE mode for quick-and-easy
operation (page 42)
Select from two recording/playback modes: the “SIMPLE mode” for users new
to the camera, and the “NORMAL mode” for full use of all the camera’s many
features and functions.
Example:
Image stabilizer for sharp pictures (pages 52
and 92)
Your camera can compensate for the camera shake that results in blurry
images when you try to capture a fast-moving subject or zoom in on a
subject. Image stabilizer functions for both video clip recording and still image
shots are on board.

GETTING THE MOST OUT OF YOUR CAMERA
Sharp face shots (pages 54 and 98)
Your camera is equipped with a face recognition feature which detects the
subject’s face even when slightly lit from behind or in dim surroundings and
automatically adjusts the focus and brightness to compensate. Now those
otherwise perfect photos that are marred by shadowed faces can be
minimized.
Xacti Library feature (page 149)
The Xacti Library feature feature allows you to save files recorded with your
camera to a large-capacity hard disk without using a computer and play them
back on your TV. No computer operation is involved. You can view full high-
definition images right on your TV screen.

Lots of accessories for optimal use of your
captured images (page 21, and page 4 in the
Xacti Software CD INSTRUCTION MANUAL)
Use the accessory cables to view images on a TV or computer. Or connect
the camera directly to a printer to make prints of your photos. And with the
software in the supplied CD-ROM (Xacti Software CD), you can create your
original DVDs and CDs.

How to use the remote control unit
The remote control unit can be used at an angle that is displaced 15 degrees
horizontally from the remote control sensor on the front of the camera, at a
distance of up to 7 meters (22.97 ft.). When operating the remote control unit,
remove any object that may obstruct the path between it and the remote
control sensor.
CAUTION
iIf the remote control unit is operated in sunlight or under inverter lighting,
the remote control receiving range may become shorter. This is a
characteristic of the infrared remote control unit and is not a defect. To
avoid this malfunction when operating the remote control unit, take care to
shield the remote control sensor from strong light.

PREPARING THE REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
Changing the remote control code
The remote control unit will also work with other Sanyo cameras that can be
operated by infrared remote control. When more than one camera is present,
it is recommended to change the remote control code to ensure that only the
intended camera operates when the remote control unit is used. The remote
control code is set to “RC CODE 1” at the time of purchase.
<Changing the remote control code from “RC CODE 1” to “RC
CODE 2”>
1 Aim the infrared emitter at the remote control sensor on the camera.
2 Simultaneously press the MENU button and the [ ] button for at
least 3 seconds.
3 Press a button on the remote control unit and check that the camera
is receiving correctly.
hThe remote control codes are retained even if the batteries in the
remote control unit or camera are replaced.
hIf the remote control codes for the remote control unit and the camera
and do not match, the remote control unit cannot be used to operate
the camera.

CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
CAUTION
Do not charge the battery pack immediately after the camera has been
in continuous use for a long time
iThe battery pack becomes hot when the camera is used continuously for a
long time. If you attempt to charge the battery pack in this state, the multi-
indicator may flash red and it may not be possible to charge the battery
pack. Wait until the battery pack has cooled down before attempting to
charge it.
Does the battery pack appear swollen?
iThe lithium-ion battery used in this camera may expand slightly when
stored in a hot environment or repeatedly used, but this is not a safety
hazard.
HINT
About the internal backup battery
iThis camera’s internal battery serves to maintain the date and time
settings, as well as the shooting settings. The backup battery will be fully
charged when the battery pack is kept in the camera continuously for about
2 days. In the fully charged state, the backup battery will maintain the
camera settings for about 7 days.
When not using the camera for a long time, remove the battery pack
iA small amount of power is still used even if the camera is turned off, and it
is therefore recommended that the battery pack be removed from the
camera if it is not going to be used for a long time. Note that when the
battery pack is removed for a long period, the time and date settings may
be cleared. Before using your camera again, be sure to confirm that the
camera settings are correct.
Recharging when connected to the USB terminal (page 6 in the Xacti
Software CD INSTRUCTION MANUAL)
iThe battery can be recharged while the camera is connected to a
computer.
iNote, however, that the time it takes to recharge will differ depending on
the camera’s operating condition.
iConnect the dedicated USB interface cable to the USB connector on your
computer. Do not connect it to the USB connector on the monitor or the
keyboard, or to the USB hub.
iIf the camera is not going to be used for an extended period of time, please
disconnect the dedicated USB interface cable from the camera.

Hints for taking pictures
Muting the operation sounds
i The audio guidance that sounds when you operate the camera can be
muted (page 124).
Where are the image and audio files saved?
i All the image and sound files are recorded on the card installed in the
camera.
Taking pictures in backlight conditions...
i When taking pictures with the light coming from behind the subject, due to
the characteristics of the lens, ghost patterns (flare phenomenon) may
appear in the captured image. In this situation, it is recommended that you
avoid taking pictures with the subject lit from behind.
While the image files are being recorded...
i While the multi-indicator is flashing red, the image files are being written to
the memory, during which time it is not possible to capture another image.
Another image can be captured after the flashing red indicator turns off.
However, even when the multi-indicator is flashing red, depending on the
camera’s internal memory remaining capacity, in some cases the next
image can be captured about 2 seconds after shooting.
