Taking pictures
2
Taking still pictures
You can take a picture with the image display on or off. To take
a picture:
1 Frame the subject that you want to photograph in the
viewfinder.
2 Hold the camera steady and press the Shutter button. The
camera adjusts exposure, and then takes the picture.
To achieve the best focus in low light conditions, secure the
camera to a tripod and make sure the focus area has sufficient
contrast.
To achieve the best exposure in low light conditions, turn on the
flash when the subject is less than 2 meters away. When the
subject or scenery is more than 2 meters away, turn the flash
off and secure the camera to a tripod to prevent blurring the
image. When the flash is turned off, the longer exposure will
make the image brighter.
2-Taking pictures
15
If the red viewfinder light is blinking, you must wait before
taking a picture. This means that the camera is starting up, the
flash is charging, or another situation might exist. For
troubleshooting information, see Chapter 6: Troubleshooting
and support on page 41.
Using instant review
After you take a picture, the image display shows the image
while it is being saved to memory. You can delete the image
before it is saved by pressing the left Arrow button.
Recording video clips
To record a video clip:
1 Frame the subject that you want to record.
2 Press and release the Video
button to start recording.
You will see REC on the image display. No audio will be
recorded.
3 To stop recording at any time, press the
button again.
After recording has stopped, the last
frame of the video clip remains on
the image display during instant
review. During this time, the video
clip is saved to memory unless you
choose to delete it.
16
hp photosmart 320 user’s manual
During recording, the red viewfinder light blinks and the red
Video/self-timer light is solid. You can view the time remaining
for recording on the image display. The camera automatically
stops recording when the timer reaches zero.
NOTE To delay recording by 10 seconds, simply press the
Self-timer/zoom
timer before pressing the
button once to activate the self-
button.
Although the maximum recording time for a video clip is
always 30 seconds, the number of video clips you can record
can be increased by using a memory card. Video files can be
very large and use a lot of space on the memory card.
Using Preview mode
You can also use the image display
to preview a picture and show a
more accurate view of what your
picture will look like. This is useful
for close-up pictures and for
instances in which framing your
subject is important.
To take a picture by using the image display:
1 Press the Display
button to activate Preview mode.
2 Frame your subject in the image display, and then press the
Shutter button.
In addition to taking pictures and recording video clips, you
can zoom in on your subject, adjust the flash setting, determine
how many more pictures can be taken, or increase the quality
of your image—all from within Preview mode.
NOTE Using the image display consumes a large amount of
battery power.

the picture by using the image display.
2 Press the
button twice to activate 2x digital zoom, or
press it three times to activate 4x digital zoom, which

Changing the image quality
The camera has three image quality settings: Good, Better, and
Best. You can view the current quality setting, as well as the
number of pictures that can be taken, on the image display.
This setting determines the quality of the images and how
many images can be stored in internal memory or on the
memory card. Higher quality images take up more space in
memory. The following table identifies the approximate number
of pictures that you can take at each setting based on internal
memory or a 16 MB memory card with digital zoom off.

compatible printer, the images you selected will be
automatically printed. See Chapter 5: Unloading, printing,

Using the hp instant share
e-mail service
Using HP Instant Share to e-mail images involves three steps:
1 Adding e-mail addresses to the Share menu on the camera
(using your computer and the camera together).
2 Selecting images to be e-mailed (using the Share menu on
the camera).
3 Connecting the camera to your computer to send selected
images.
4-Using hp instant share
33
Adding, modifying, and removing
e-mail addresses
NOTE You will need an internet connection to complete this
procedure.
1 Turn on the camera, press the
button, then select the
Email... option and press OK. A message on the image
display appears asking you to connect the camera to your
computer.
2 Connect the camera to your computer (by using the USB
cable or an optional HP Camera Dock).
3 On the computer, click Retrieve from Camera.
4 In the screen called Modify Share Menu, verify that
Photo E-mail is visible above the Add... button, then click the
Add... button.
5 If you are using a Macintosh computer, skip to step 7. If you
are using a computer running Windows, you will be asked
to sign in to HP’s Passport program. HP Passport allows you
to use HP’s free e-mail service and other services that might
be available in the future. The first time you see this screen,
you will need to register as a new user. Follow the on-screen
instructions for doing that.
6 Once you have successfully registered, sign in to the HP
Passport program, and then the Photo E-mail Setup screen
will appear. Here, you can enter an e-mail address and
specify how you want it to appear in the camera’s Share
menu. You can also enter a subject and body text to go with
the e-mail that will be sent to that address. After completing
the form, click Next. In the confirmation screen that appears,
click Finish.
34
hp photosmart 320 user’s manual
7 Your newly added e-mail destination should now appear in
the Modify Share Menu screen (in the Current Share Menu
section). To add additional e-mail addresses to the camera’s
Share menu, repeat steps 4-6. You will not need to sign in to
the HP Passport program again.
8 When you have finished adding e-mail addresses, click on
Save to Camera to add the new addresses to the camera’s
Share menu. When the computer confirms that the
addresses were saved to your camera, disconnect the
camera from the computer, and press the
button to view
the new e-mail destinations in the Share menu.
9 You are now ready to select images to be e-mailed. See the
next section for how to do this.
Selecting images to be e-mailed
1 Turn on the camera, then press the
button.
2 Use the
buttons to scroll to an image you want to
e-mail. Video clips cannot be selected for e-mail.
3 Press
to activate the Share menu, then use the
buttons to scroll to the e-mail destination that you want to
select.
4 Press
to select the e-mail destination, and a check mark
appears next to that selection. (You can select more than
one e-mail destination or print option for an image.)
5 Scroll to other images by using the
buttons and repeat
steps 3 and 4 to select e-mail destinations for each image.
6 When you are finished selecting all the images you want to
e-mail, press the
button.
7 The next time you connect the camera to your computer,
images are unloaded to the computer, and the images
selected for e-mail will be sent to their respective
destinations.
4-Using hp instant share
35
The way in which the images are e-mailed works differently on
Windows and Macintosh computers.
Windows
Images are not e-mailed directly to anyone. Rather, a message
is sent to each e-mail address that you selected in the Share
menu. The message contains a thumbnail of each of the
images that were selected for that address, as well as a link to
a web page where the recipient can view the images. From that
web page, the recipient can do things like reply to you or print
the image. This makes it easy for people who use different
e-mail programs to be able to see your images without the
difficulty of dealing with e-mail attachments.
Macintosh
Images are e-mailed directly to recipients using the default
e-mail program on your computer.

Once you have taken pictures, you can unload them from your
camera to a computer, print them directly to a printer, or
display them on a TV (using the optional HP Camera Dock).
Unloading to a computer
NOTE You can also use the optional HP
Camera Dock to do this task. For

3 Turn on the camera. The HP Image Unload software will
launch on your computer, and the images in the camera will
automatically unload to the computer. If there were any
images in the camera that were selected in the Share menu
for printing or e-mail, those actions are started after the
images have been unloaded to the computer.
4 When the unload screen on the computer says Finished,
your images have been saved and shared. You can now
disconnect the camera from the computer.
NOTE To unload the camera images to a computer that does
not have the HP Photo & Imaging software inserted on it,
switch the camera to Disk Drive in the USB Configuration
menu found in the Setup menu. This allows the camera to
appear as another disk drive on the computer.
Printing images
NOTE You can also use the optional HP Camera Dock to do
this task. See Appendix B: Camera dock on page 63.
To print images that have been unloaded to the computer, you
can use the HP Photo & Imaging software that was shipped
with the camera.
You can also connect the camera directly to any HP DeskJet or
Photosmart printer that has a USB connection, then print
images selected from the camera’s Share menu or all images
in the camera.

time settings are preserved for approximately ten minutes. If the
camera is without batteries for longer than ten minutes, the
clock is set to the last time and date at which it stopped. You
might be prompted to update the date and time.
NOTE If you do not intend to use the camera for extended
periods of time (more than a month), we strongly
recommend that you remove the batteries from the
camera.

Extending battery life
z Use an optional HP AC adapter or HP Camera Dock when
unloading pictures to your computer, printing, or connecting
to the TV.
z Turn the camera off during a pause in picture taking.
z Use the Auto Flash setting rather than Flash On or Red-eye
reduction.
Rechargeable batteries
NiMH batteries can be recharged by using a battery charger
or optional HP Camera Dock (both purchased separately).
Rechargeable batteries might be used either by recharging
outside the camera in a charger, or in the camera by
connecting to the dock or using the AC adapter. Both of these
accessories are optional.
NOTE Rechargeable batteries have a longer life if they are
fully discharged before charging occurs.
Power conservation
To conserve battery power, the image display turns off
automatically if there is no button activity for 60 seconds. If no
buttons are pressed for five minutes, the camera turns off
(unless it is printing or connected to a computer).
NOTE If the camera is connected to an AC adapter, power
conservation occurs after ten minutes.
