CAUTIONS
Do not place this camera in a location affected by oil fumes or steam, such as
near a cooking stove or humidifier. This may cause a fire or an electrical shock.
Do not leave this camera in a location subject to extremely high
temperatures, such as in a sealed vehicle or in direct sunlight. Exposure
to high temperatures may adversely affect the camera case and internal
components and may cause a fire.
Do not cover or wrap the camera with a cloth or quilt. This may cause heat
to build up and distort the camera case and cause a fire. Always use the
camera and accessories in well-ventilated locations.
Handle the camera carefully and do not expose the camera to shock or
vibration. Handling the camera roughly may cause a malfunction.
Do not use batteries other than those specified for use with your camera.
Use of unsuitable batteries may result in the batteries splitting, or leaking
and may cause a fire, injury, or soiling of the battery compartment.
When placing the batteries into the camera, check the polarity markings
on the batteries ( - and + ) to ensure that the batteries are inserted
correctly. Incorrect battery polarity will result in camera inoperability and
may result in the batteries splitting or leaking and causing a fire, injury, or
soiling of the battery compartment.
Remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for an extended period
of time. The batteries may leak and cause a fire, injury or soiling of the
battery compartment. If the batteries leak, clean and wipe the battery
compartment carefully and install new batteries. Wash your hands carefully
if you touch the battery fluid.
WARNING: Handling the USB cable on this product may expose you to
lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

INTRODUCTION
Overview
Your new digital ViviCam 3780s delivers high quality, 2912 x 2184 resolution
images using a 3.0 Mega pixel imager. Using the 1.5” TFT color image
LCD monitor, you can compose images and then examine them in detail.
An automatic flash sensor automatically detects the shooting (lighting)
conditions and determines whether the flash should be used. This feature
helps ensure that your images turn out right.
16MB internal memory (14MB available for image storage) lets you
capture and store images without the need for an additional memory
card. However, you may wish to expand the memory capacity (up to
512MB capacity) by using an external memory card.
In addition to still images, you can record short videos using the movie
function.
Images you have captured can be downloaded to your computer using the
USB cable (USB driver required for Win 98 and Mac OS 8.6) You can
enhance and retouch your images on your computer by using the provided
editing software, or image editing software you may already own. You may
share your images with your friends via e-mail, in a report, or on a website.
The illustrations in this manual are for the purpose of explanation and may differ from
the actual setting of your ViviCam 3780s.
