Approximate Battery Life
All of the values provided below represent the approximate amount of time under 
normal temperature (23°C (73°F)) before the camera turns off. These values are not 
guaranteed. Low temperatures shorten battery life.
• Battery: NP-120 (Rated Capacity: 600 mAh)
• Recording Medium: 1GB SD memory card (PRO HIGH SPEED (Panasonic 
Corporation))
• Measurement Conditions
*1Approximate number of shots (CIPA) (Operating Time)
In accordance with CIPA (Camera and Imaging Products Association) standards
Normal temperature (23°C (73°F)), monitor on, zoom operation between full wide and 
full telephoto every 30 seconds, during which two images are shot with flash; power 
turned off and back on every time 10 images are shot.
*2Approximate playback time
Standard temperature (23°C (73°F)), one-image scroll approximately every 10 seconds
*3Approximate continuous recording time
• The above values are based a new battery, starting from a full charge. Repeated 
charging shortens battery life.
• Frequency of flash, zoom, and Auto Focus usage, and the time the camera is on 
greatly affects recording time and number of shots values.

photography!
Dynamic Photo! A totally new way to enjoy digital 
photography!
Dynamic Photo makes it easy to crop a moving subject out of a series of images and 
insert it into other images! A simple operation on the camera extracts a moving 
subject automatically by cropping up to 20 Continuous Shutter images. Become the 
star of your digital images! Create the images of your dreams! All on the camera, 
without using a computer! With Dynamic Photo you can shoot, create, and view 
images, just about anywhere!
Dynamic Photo lets you extract a moving subject from a series of Continuous Shutter 
(CS) images and insert it into another image (snapshot or movie). This makes it 
possible to combine images in ways that create exciting, totally unbelievable scenes.
You can create a Dynamic Photo image by inserting a moving subject into a 
background image. Before performing the following steps, you should record the 
background image into which you want to insert the moving subject.

Moving CS Images Extract the subject. Insert it into another image.

							3Using the Dynamic Photo Extracted Sample Subjects
Using the Dynamic Photo Extracted Sample Subjects
Your digital camera comes with a number of extracted sample subjects in its built-in 
memory. You can use these sample subjects to practice creating Dynamic Photo 
images by inserting them into your original snapshots or movies.
1.Remove the memory card from the camera 
(if one is loaded).
You will not be able to access the extracted sample 
subjects in built-in camera memory while a memory 
card is loaded in the camera.
2.In the REC mode, compose the image and press 
the shutter button to shoot a standard 
snapshot.
You will insert the extracted sample subject into the 
snapshot you shoot here.
1.Press [p] (PLAY) to enter the PLAY mode and 
then press [SET].
2.Use [8] and [2] to select the second PLAY 
Panel item from the bottom (Dynamic Photo) 
and then press [SET].
3.Use [4] and [6] to select the snapshot you shot in Step 1 above, and 
then press [SET].
4.Use [4] and [6] to select the extracted sample subject in built-in 
camera memory that you want to insert into the image and then press 
[SET].
5.Use the zoom controller to adjust the size of the 
subject and use [8], [2], [4], and [6] to adjust 
its position. When everything is the way you 
want, press [SET].
This inserts the extracted sample subject into another 
image and creates a Dynamic Photo image.
Step 1: Shoot the image into which you want to insert an 
extracted sample subject.
Step 2: Perform the following procedure to create a Dynamic 
Photo image. 
						

							
4Using the Dynamic Photo Extracted Sample Subjects
6.After creation of the Dynamic Photo image is complete, the finished 
image with the inserted moving su bject will appear on the monitor 
screen.
After you master the above procedure using  extracted sample subjects, you will 
be ready to create your own extracted subjects and insert them into snapshots or 
movies for totally origi nal Dynamic Photo images.
• You will not be able to access the extracted sample  subjects in built-in camera memory while a memory card 
is loaded in the camera. If you want to use the extracted 
sample subjects while a memory card is loaded in the 
camera, use the “Built-in  * Card” copy operation to 
copy the extracted sample su bjects from built-in camera 
memory to the memory card.
• Performing a delete or format operati on will not delete the extracted sample 
subjects in built-in camera memory.
• Note that the extracted sample subjects  include some subjects that cannot be 
created using the Dynamic Photo feature of this camera.
Important! 
						

							5Creating a Dynamic Photo Image
Creating a Dynamic Photo Image
Dynamic Photo images are created by extracting the subject out of one image, and 
inserting it into another image (snapshot or movie). The term “subject” as used here 
refers to what you extract or crop out of the first image. Perform the following steps to 
shoot and extract the subject.
1.Press [r] (REC) to turn on the camera and 
then press [SET].
2.Use [8] and [2] to select the bottom Control 
Panel option (BS) and then press [SET].
3.Select “Dynamic Photo”.
On the BEST SHOT scene menu screen, 
select “Dynamic Photo”, which is the 
second scene.
Use [4] and [6] to move the red frame   
to   and then press the [SET] button.
Step 1: Shoot the subject.
To extract the subject, you shoot once with the subject against a background. 
Then you shoot the same background again, this time without the subject.
1With the subject2The same angle against the same 
background, without the subject.
Do not allow the camera to move.The camera will extract 
the subject automatically.
(Shoot twice.) 
						

							6Creating a Dynamic Photo Image
4.First, shoot the subject.
Best results can be obtained with the camera secured 
on a tripod. With the camera pointed at the moving 
subject, press the shutter button to record. If you 
selected “Moving Subject”, the camera will record a 
series of Continuous Shutter (CS) images over a few 
seconds.
• To help ensure good cropping results...
*See “Four Tips for Good Subject Cropping”
.
• You can select the subject type and the “Number of 
Shots” setting here by pressing the [SET] button.
*See “Specifying the Subject Type and CS Speed”
*See “Changing the “Number of Shots” Setting”*See “Extracting Text from an Image” for more information.
• Flash is turned off (?) automatically when shooting with Dynamic Photo.
5.Next, shoot the same background again, but this 
time without the subject.
After shooting the first image with the subject, have the 
subject exit the frame. Keep the camera still so you can 
maintain the same background composition as the first 
image (with the subject). When everything is ready, 
press the shutter button.
Only one shot (not CS images) of the background is 
recorded at this time.
As shown in the image to the right, there is no need to 
carefully compose the two images when shooting 
against a flat wall that has no visible marks at all.
First, let’s just have the 
subject wave or perform 
some other simple 
movement as we shoot. 
						

							7Creating a Dynamic Photo Image
The camera compares the images 
you shot in steps 4 and 5 and 
extracts the subject. The extracted 
subject image will appear on the 
monitor screen. If you selected 
“Moving Subject”, the 20 subject images that were recorded will scroll on the screen, 
creating the illusion of movement.
• The background you shoot is not saved. Only the 20 cropped subject images are 
saved.
• You can interrupt an ongoing image extraction process at any time by pressing [ ] 
(Delete).
Use the following procedure to insert the subject you extracted in Step 1 above into a 
snapshot or movie (new background image) and create the final Dynamic Photo 
image.
1.Press [p] (PLAY) to enter the PLAY mode and 
then press [SET].
2.Use [8] and [2] to select the second PLAY 
Panel item from the bottom (Dynamic Photo) 
and then press [SET].
3.Use [4] and [6] to select the background image 
you want and then press [SET].
Select the image you want to use as the background.
You should record the background image you want to 
use before starting this procedure.
*Only images that are able to be used as background images 
will appear at this time.
• Only an image that satisfies the following conditions can be used as a 
background image.
– A snapshot or movie recorded with this camera or a snapshot transferred to 
this camera’s memory using Photo Transport
– A snapshot with an aspect ratio of 4:3
Complete!
Step 2: Create the Dynamic Photo image.
