Great I just went to the 100 end store and I saw the one port a plug I didn't buy it because I actually was going to ask you about it and so maybe I have one already I'll double check but yeah we'll start with that before I can charge the battery and I'll put the SD card in there and go from there first and then see how I progress with that yeah thanks a lot I really appreciate it man I just go step by step there's only a few functions I'm really want to take notice about nasty time and date and how to take pictures and how to put the SD card take the SD card out put in the computer and see where the pictures actually go on my computer I'm actually thinking of taking my computer with me to Okinawa because I'm I'm probably I'm quite sure I'm going to be there for a long time so I think we got a computer would be just fine for me to bring along cI assume the battery has been installed? (Manual pp 22-23)
Charging the battery is on page 24 of the manual. One thing about the manuals in Japan I've always admired is that they have excellent pictures.
First, turn off the camera.
Insert the microUSB plug into the microUSB slot in the camera (refer to diagram on page 24).
Insert the USB plug into a USB wall charger (sold separately). Charger should be a type A output, 1 port 5V, greater than 2A capacity.
A red LED will light while the camera is charging. The LED will turn off when charging is complete.
It's like 9:30 at night I'm in a University Town in Yamaguchi a lot of activity downtown unbelievable . tomorrow I'll really take a look at the instructions I'll struggle along but formatting the SD card I have no idea what that's about.For future reference, the manual talks about SD cards on pages 28-34, and how to set the date/time on page 35.
Page 31 tells you how to insert the SD card. I'm guessing the picture will suffice.
It says that you should not change any of the file or directory names that the camera assigns.
Also, you will need to format the SD card before using it. The instructions for formatting the SD card are on page 34.
Sorry I dropped out earlier; it was my bedtime here in Boston.
you can format it when you connect it to a computer, but I've rarely had to do it. Cameras will usually create a DCIM folder to store images and maybe add a few other files or folders, I would just make sure you don't have a DCIM folder on there already (but even that might not have any negative effect on anything).It's like 9:30 at night I'm in a University Town in Yamaguchi a lot of activity downtown unbelievable . tomorrow I'll really take a look at the instructions I'll struggle along but formatting the SD card I have no idea what that's about.
What is a DCIM folder?you can format it when you connect it to a computer, but I've rarely had to do it.

It's a folder named "DCIM". That will not matter to you until you connect the camera to your computer and look for your photos. It shouldn't be confusing at that point, though. Just don't rename that folder!What is a DCIM folder?

This is my 3rd the time to Tottori. I have been to the sand dunes. I took an illegal picture of the camels. The people got mad at me. But they didn't do anything. Will do mountain camping today.Are you going to the dunes or have you already seen them?
I've never been to tottori, I've heard there are camels but you aren't allowed to photograph them?This is my 3rd the time to Tottori. I have been to the sand dunes. I took an illegal picture of the camels. The people got mad at me. But they didn't do anything. Will do mountain camping today.
I think they are there solely for the purpose for taking pictures but the expectation is that you buy the pictures, not take your own.I've never been to tottori, I've heard there are camels but you aren't allowed to photograph them?
