Safety Precautions

The following precautions are provided to prevent harm or injury to yourself and others. Make sure to thoroughly understand and follow these precautions before using the product.

If you experience any malfunctions, problems, or damage to the product, contact the nearest Canon Service Center or the dealer from whom you purchased the product.

Warnings:

Follow the warnings below. Otherwise, death or serious injuries may result.

To prevent fire, excessive heat, chemical leakage, explosions, and electrical shock, follow the safeguards below:

• Do not use any batteries, power sources, or accessories not specified in the

Instruction Manual. Do not use any home-made or modified batteries, or the product if it is damaged.

• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, or modify the battery. Do not apply heat or solder to the battery. Do not expose the battery to fire or water. Do not subject the battery to strong physical shock.

• Do not insert the battery’s plus and minus ends incorrectly.

• Do not recharge the battery in temperatures outside the allowable charging

(working) temperature range. Also, do not exceed the recharge time indicated in the Instruction Manual.

• Do not insert any foreign metallic objects into the electrical contacts of the camera, accessories, connecting cables, etc.

When disposing of a battery, insulate the electrical contacts with tape. Contact with other metallic objects or batteries may cause a fire or an explosion.

If excessive heat, smoke, or fumes are emitted when recharging the battery, immediately unplug the battery charger from the power outlet to stop recharging.

Otherwise, it may cause a fire, heat damage, or electrical shock.

If the battery leaks, changes color, deforms, or emits smoke or fumes, remove it immediately. Be careful not to get burned in the process. It may cause a fire, electrical shock or burns if you keep using it.

Prevent any battery leakage from contacting your eyes, skin, and clothing. It can cause blindness or skin problems. If the battery leakage comes in contact with your eyes, skin, or clothing, flush the affected area with lots of clean water without rubbing it. See a physician immediately.

Do not leave any cords near a heat source. It can deform the cord or melt the insulation and cause a fire or electrical shock.

Do not hold the camera in the same position for long periods of time. Even if the camera does not feel too hot, prolonged contact with the same body part may cause skin redness or blistering due to low-temperature contact burns. Using a tripod is recommended when using the camera in very hot places or for people with circulation problems or poor skin sensation.

Do not fire the flash at anyone driving a car or other vehicle. It may cause an accident.

22

Safety Precautions

When the camera or accessories are not in use, make sure to remove the battery, and disconnect the power plug and connecting cables from the equipment before storing.

This is to prevent electrical shock, excessive heat, fire, and corrosion.

Do not use the equipment where there is flammable gas. This is to prevent an explosion or a fire.

If you drop the equipment and the casing breaks open to expose the internal parts, do not touch the exposed internal parts. There is a possibility of an electrical shock.

Do not disassemble or modify the equipment. High-voltage internal parts can cause electrical shock.

Do not look at the sun or an extremely bright light source through the camera or lens. Doing so may damage your vision.

Keep equipment out of the reach of children and infants, including when in use. Straps or cords may accidentally cause choking, electrical shock, or injury. Choking or injury may also occur if a child or infant accidentally swallows a camera part or accessory. If a child or infant swallows a part or accessory, consult a physician immediately.

Do not use or store the equipment in dusty or humid places. Likewise, keep the battery away from metallic items and store it with its protective cover attached to prevent shortcircuit. This is to prevent fire, excessive heat, electrical shock, and burns.

Before using the camera inside an airplane or hospital, check if it is allowed.

Electromagnetic waves emitted by the camera may interfere with the plane’s instruments or the hospital’s medical equipment.

To prevent a fire and electrical shock, follow the safeguards below:

• Always insert the power plug all the way in.

• Do not handle a power plug with wet hands.

• When unplugging a power plug, grasp and pull the plug instead of the cord.

• Do not scratch, cut, or excessively bend the cord or put a heavy object on the cord. Also do not twist or tie the cords.

• Do not connect too many power plugs to the same power outlet.

• Do not use a cord whose wire is broken or insulation is damaged.

Unplug the power plug periodically and clean off the dust around the power outlet with a dry cloth. If the surrounding is dusty, humid, or oily, the dust on the power outlet may become moist and short-circuit the outlet, causing a fire.

Do not connect the battery directly to an electrical outlet or a car’s cigarette lighter outlet. The battery may leak, generate excessive heat or explode, causing fire, burns, or injuries.

A thorough explanation of how to use the product by an adult is required when the product is used by children. Supervise children while they are using the product.

Incorrect usage may result in electrical shock or injury.

Do not leave a lens or lens-attached camera in the sun without the lens cap attached. Otherwise, the lens may concentrate the sun’s rays and cause a fire.

Do not cover or wrap the product with a cloth when using it. Doing so may trap heat within and cause the casing to deform or catch fire.

Be careful not to get the camera wet. If you drop the product in the water or if water or metal get inside the product, promptly remove the battery. This is to prevent fire, electrical shock, and burns.

Do not use paint thinner, benzene, or other organic solvents to clean the product.

Doing so may cause fire or a health hazard.

23

Safety Precautions

Cautions:

Follow the cautions below. Otherwise, physical injury or property damage may result.

Do not use or store the product in a high-temperature location such as inside a car under the hot sun. The product may become hot and cause burns. Doing so may also cause battery leakage or explosion, which will degrade the performance or shorten the life of the product.

Do not carry the camera around when it is attached to a tripod. Doing so may cause an injury or an accident. Also make sure the tripod is sturdy enough to support the camera and lens.

Do not leave the product in a low-temperature environment for an extended period of time. The product will become cold and may cause injury when touched.

Do not fire the flash near the eyes. It may hurt the eyes.

24

Handling Precautions

Camera Care

This camera is a precision instrument. Do not drop it or subject it to physical shock.

The camera is not waterproof and cannot be used underwater. If you accidentally drop the camera into water, promptly consult the nearest Canon

Service Center. Wipe off any water droplets with a dry and clean cloth. If the camera has been exposed to salty air, wipe it with a clean, well-wrung wet cloth.

Never leave the camera near anything having a strong magnetic field such as a magnet or electric motor. Also, avoid using or leaving the camera near anything emitting strong radio waves, such as a large antenna. Strong magnetic fields can cause camera misoperation or destroy image data.

Do not leave the camera in excessive heat, such as in a car in direct sunlight. High temperatures can cause the camera to malfunction.

The camera contains precision electronic circuitry. Never attempt to disassemble the camera yourself.

Do not block the mirror operation with your finger, etc. Doing so may cause a malfunction.

Use only a commercially-available blower to blow away dust when it adheres to the lens, viewfinder, reflex mirror, focusing screen, etc. Do not use cleaners that contain organic solvents to clean the camera body or lens. For stubborn dirt, take the camera to the nearest Canon Service Center.

Do not touch the camera’s electrical contacts with your fingers. This is to prevent the contacts from corroding. Corroded contacts can cause camera malfunction.

If the camera is suddenly brought in from the cold into a warm room, condensation may form on the camera and internal parts. To prevent condensation, first put the camera in a sealed plastic bag and let it adjust to the warmer temperature before taking it out of the bag.

25

Handling Precautions

If condensation forms on the camera, do not use the camera. This is to avoid damaging the camera. If there is condensation, remove the lens, card and battery from the camera, and wait until condensation has evaporated before using the camera.

If the camera will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery and store the camera in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location. Even while the camera is in storage, press the shutter button a few times once in a while to check that the camera is still working.

Avoid storing the camera where there are chemicals that result in rust and corrosion such as in a chemical lab.

If the camera has not been used for an extended period, test all its functions before using it. If you have not used the camera for some time or if there is an important shoot such as a foreign trip coming up, have the camera checked by your nearest Canon Service Center or check the camera yourself and make sure it is working properly.

If you repeat continuous shooting or perform Live View shooting or movie shooting for a prolonged period, the camera may become hot. This is not a malfunction.

If there is a bright light source inside or outside the image area, ghosting may occur.

LCD Monitor

Although the LCD monitor is manufactured with very high precision technology with over 99.99% effective pixels, 0.01% or fewer of the pixels may be dead, and there may also be spots of black, red, or other colors.

Dead pixels are not a malfunction. They do not affect the images recorded.

If the LCD monitor is left on for a prolonged period, screen burn-in may occur where you see remnants of what was displayed. However, this is only temporary and will disappear when the camera is left unused for a few days.

The LCD monitor display may seem slightly slow in low temperatures, or look black in high temperatures. It will return to normal at room temperature.

26

Handling Precautions

Cards

To protect the card and its recorded data, note the following:

Do not drop, bend, or wet the card. Do not subject it to excessive force, physical shock, or vibration.

Do not touch the card’s electronic contacts with your fingers or anything metallic.

Do not affix any stickers, etc. on the card.

Do not store or use the card near anything that has a strong magnetic field, such as a TV set, speakers, or magnets. Also avoid places prone to having static electricity.

Do not leave the card in direct sunlight or near a heat source.

Store the card in a case.

Do not store the card in hot, dusty, or humid locations.

Smudges Adhering to the Front of the Sensor

Besides dust entering the camera from outside, in rare cases, lubricant from the camera’s internal parts may adhere to the front of the sensor. If smudges are visible on the images, having the sensor cleaned by a Canon Service Center is recommended.

Lens

After detaching the lens from the camera, put down the lens with the rear end up and attach the rear lens cap to avoid scratching the lens surface and electrical contacts.

36

Charging the Battery

Tips for Using the Battery and Charger

Upon purchase, the battery is not fully charged.

Charge the battery before use.

Recharge the battery on the day before or on the day it is to be used.

Even during storage, a charged battery will gradually drain and lose its capacity.

After recharging the battery, detach it and disconnect the charger from the power outlet.

When not using the camera, remove the battery.

If the battery is left in the camera for a prolonged period, a small amount of power current will keep being released, resulting in excess discharge and shorter battery life. Store the battery with the protective cover (provided) attached. Storing the battery when it is fully charged may lower the battery performance.

The battery charger can also be used in foreign countries.

The battery charger is compatible with a 100 V AC to 240 V AC 50/

60 Hz power source. If necessary, attach a commercially-available plug adapter for the respective country or region. Do not attach any portable voltage transformer to the battery charger. Doing so may damage the battery charger.

If the battery becomes exhausted quickly even after having been fully charged, the battery has reached the end of its service life.

Check the battery’s recharge performance (p.380) and purchase a

new battery.

After disconnecting the charger’s power plug, do not touch the prongs for approx. 5 sec.

Do not charge any battery other than a Battery Pack LP-E17.

Battery Pack LP-E17 is dedicated to Canon products only. Using it with an incompatible battery charger or product may result in malfunction or accidents for which Canon cannot be held liable.

37

Installing and Removing the Battery and Card

Load a fully charged Battery Pack LP-E17 into the camera. The camera can use an SD, SDHC, or SDXC memory card (sold separately). UHS-I

The camera is compatible with all Canon EF and EF-S lenses. Note that you cannot use the EF-M lenses.

Attaching a Lens

1

Remove the caps.

Remove the rear lens cap and the body cap by turning them as shown by the arrows.

White index 2

Attach the lens.

Align the lens’s red or white index with the camera’s index matching the same color. Turn the lens as shown by the arrow until it clicks in place.

Red index

3

Set the lens’s focus mode switch to <AF>.

< AF > stands for autofocus.

< MF > stands for manual focus.

4

Remove the front lens cap.

Tips for Avoiding Smudges and Dust

When changing lenses, do it quickly in a place with minimal dust.

When storing the camera without a lens attached, be sure to attach the body cap to the camera.

Remove dust on the body cap before attaching it.

48

Attaching and Detaching a Lens

Zooming

Turn the zoom ring on the lens with your fingers.

Perform the zoom operation before focusing. Turning the zoom ring after achieving focus may throw off the focus.

Detaching the Lens

While pressing the lens release button, turn the lens as shown by the arrow.

Turn the lens until it stops, then detach it.

Attach the rear lens cap to the detached lens.

Do not look at the sun directly through any lens. Doing so may cause loss of vision.

When attaching or detaching a lens, set the camera’s power switch to < 2 >.

If the front part (focusing ring) of the lens rotates during autofocusing, do not touch the rotating part.

During viewfinder shooting or Live View shooting, if you use a TS-E lens

(except the TS-E17mm f/4L or TS-E24mm f/3.5L II) and shift or tilt the lens or use an extension tube, the standard exposure may not be obtained or the exposure may be irregular.

If you use a TS-E lens, certain shift and rotation functions may be restricted, and attaching or detaching the lens may also be restricted.

Angle of View

Since the image area is smaller than the 35mm film format, the effective angle of view of an attached lens will be equivalent to that of a lens with approx.

1.6x of the focal length indicated.

Basic Shooting Operations

Adjusting the Viewfinder Clarity

Turn the dioptric adjustment knob.

Turn the knob left or right so that the

AF points in the viewfinder look sharp.

If the knob is difficult to turn, remove

the eyecup (p.386).

If the camera’s dioptric adjustment still cannot provide a sharp viewfinder image, using E-series Dioptric Adjustment Lenses (sold separately) is recommended.

Holding the Camera

To obtain sharp images, hold the camera still to minimize camera shake.

Horizontal shooting Vertical shooting

1. Wrap your right hand around the camera grip firmly.

2. Hold the lens bottom with your left hand.

3. Rest your right index finger lightly on the shutter button.

4. Press your arms and elbows lightly against the front of your body.

5. To maintain a stable stance, place one foot slightly ahead of the other.

6. Press the camera against your face and look through the viewfinder.

To shoot while looking at the LCD monitor, see page 195.

Basic Shooting Operations

Shutter Button

The shutter button has two steps. You can press the shutter button halfway. Then you can further press the shutter button completely.

Pressing Halfway

This activates autofocusing and the automatic exposure system that sets the shutter speed and aperture.

The exposure setting (shutter speed and aperture) is displayed in the viewfinder

( 0 ).

While you press the shutter button halfway, the LCD monitor will turn off

(p.301).

Pressing Completely

This releases the shutter and takes the picture.

Preventing Camera Shake

Hand-held camera movement during the moment of exposure is called camera shake. It can cause blurred pictures. To prevent camera shake, note the following:

• Hold and steady the camera as shown on the preceding page.

• Press the shutter button halfway to autofocus, then slowly press the shutter button completely.

If you press the shutter button completely without pressing it halfway first, or if you press the shutter button halfway and then press it completely immediately, the camera will take a moment before it takes the picture.

Even during menu display, image playback, or image recording, you can immediately go back to shooting-ready state by pressing the shutter button halfway.

Select [ OK ], then press < 0 >.

X The card will be formatted.

X When the formatting is complete, the menu will reappear.

For low-level formatting, press the

< L > button to add a checkmark < X > to [ Low level format ], then select

[ OK ].

68

The card capacity displayed on the card format screen may be smaller than the capacity indicated on the card.

This device incorporates exFAT technology licensed from Microsoft.

3 Formatting the Card

Perform [Format card] in the following cases:

The card is new.

The card was formatted by a different camera or a computer.

The card is full of images or data.

A card-related error is displayed

(p.427).

Low-level Formatting

Perform low-level formatting if the card’s writing or reading speed seems slow or if you want to totally erase the data on the card.

Since low-level formatting will format all recordable sectors on the card, the formatting will take slightly longer than normal formatting.

You can stop the low-level formatting by selecting [ Cancel ]. Even in this case, normal formatting will already be complete and you can use the card as usual.

Card’s file formats

SD/SDHC cards will be formatted in FAT32. SDXC cards will be formatted in exFAT.

When shooting a movie with a card formatted in exFAT, the movie will be recorded in a single file (instead of being split into multiple files) even if it exceeds 4 GB. (The movie file will exceed 4 GB.)

If you format an SDXC card with this camera and then insert it into another camera, an error may be displayed and the card may become unusable. Certain computer operating systems or card readers may not recognize a card formatted in exFAT.

When the card is formatted or data is erased, only the file management information is changed. The actual data is not completely erased. Be aware of this when selling or discarding the card. When discarding the card, perform low-level formatting or destroy the card physically to prevent personal data from being leaked.

Before using a new Eye-Fi card, the software on the card must be installed on your computer. Then format the card with the camera.

It indicates that the camera is focusing continuously on a moving subject. (The focus indicator < o > does not light up.) You can take sharp pictures of a moving subject.

Note that focus lock (p.75) will not work in this case.

Pressing the shutter button halfway does not focus on the subject.

If the focus mode switch of the lens is set to < MF > (manual focus), set it to < AF > (autofocus).

The flash fired even if it was daylight.

For a backlit subject, the flash may fire to help lighten the subject’s dark areas. If you do not want the flash to fire, use the Quick Control to set [ Built-in flash firing ] to [ b

] (p.106) or set the <

7 > (Flash

The built-in flash fired and the picture came out extremely bright.

Move further away from the subject and shoot. When shooting with flash, if the subject is too close to the camera, the picture may come out extremely bright (overexposure).

In low light, the built-in flash fired a series of flashes.

Pressing the shutter button halfway may trigger the built-in flash to fire a series of flashes to assist autofocusing. This is called the AFassist beam. Its effective range is approx. 4 meters / 13.1 feet. Note that the built-in flash will make a sound when firing continuously.

This is normal and not a malfunction.

When flash was used, the bottom part of the picture came out unnaturally dark.

The shadow of the lens barrel was captured in the picture because the subject was too close to the camera. Move further away from the subject and shoot. If a hood is attached to the lens, remove it before taking the flash picture.

Full Auto Techniques (Scene Intelligent Auto)

Recomposing the Shot

Depending on the scene, positioning the subject toward the left or right to include a balanced background will result in a picture with better perspective.

In the < A > mode, pressing the shutter button halfway to focus on a still subject will lock the focus on that subject. Recompose the shot while keeping the shutter button pressed halfway, and then press the shutter button completely to take the picture. This is called “focus lock”.

Focus lock is also possible in other Basic Zone modes (except < 8 :

5C >).

Shooting a Moving Subject

In the < A > mode, if the subject moves (distance to camera changes) during or after focusing, AI Servo AF will take effect to focus on the subject continuously. (The beeper will continue beeping softly.) As long as you keep the AF point positioned over the subject while pressing the shutter button halfway, focusing will be continuous. At the decisive moment, press the shutter button completely to take the picture.

Shooting Tips

Prevent camera shake if the numeric display (shutter speed) in the viewfinder blinks.

Under low light when camera shake is prone to occur, the viewfinder’s shutter speed display will blink. Hold the camera steady or use a tripod. When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end to reduce blur caused by camera shake even with handheld shooting.

Take portraits without flash.

In low-light conditions, tell the subject to keep still until the picture is taken. Any movement by the subject during shooting may result in the subject being blurred in the picture.

Shooting Portraits

The < 2 > (Portrait) mode blurs the background to make the human subject stand out. It also makes skin tones and hair look softer.

アテ

Shooting Tips

Select the location where the distance between the subject and the background is the farthest.

The further the distance between the subject and background, the more blurred the background will look. The subject will also stand out better against an uncluttered dark background.

Use a telephoto lens.

If you have a zoom lens, use the telephoto end to fill the frame with the subject from the waist up. Move in closer as necessary.

Focus on the face.

Check that the AF point covering the face lights up. For close-ups of the face, focus on the eyes.

The default setting is < i > (Continuous shooting). If you keep holding down the shutter button, you can shoot continuously (max. approx. 5.0 shots/sec.) to capture changes in the subject’s facial expression and pose.

87

q

Shooting Group Photos

Use the < q > (Group Photo) mode to shoot group photos. You can take a picture in which both the people in the front and people in the back are all in focus.

Shooting Tips

Use a wide-angle lens.

When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end to make it easy to get all the people in the group in focus at once, from the front row to the back. Also, if you place a little distance between the camera and the subjects (so that the subjects’ entire bodies are in the shot), the focus range increases in depth.

Take multiple shots of the group.

It is recommended to shoot multiple photos in case some people close their eyes.

See the cautions on page 98.

88

When shooting indoors or in low-light, hold the camera steady or use a tripod to prevent camera shake.

You can adjust the image brightness with [ Brightness ].

3

Shooting Landscapes

Use the < 3 > (Landscape) mode for wide scenery or to have everything in focus from near to far. For vivid blues and greens, and very sharp and crisp images.

Shooting Tips

With a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end.

When using a zoom lens, set the lens to the wide-angle end to make the objects near and far in focus. It also adds breadth to landscapes.

Shooting night scenes.

The < 3 > mode is also good for night scenes because it disables the built-in flash. When shooting night scenes, use a tripod to prevent camera shake.

The built-in flash will not fire even in backlit or low-light conditions.

If you are using an external Speedlite, the Speedlite will fire.

89

5

Shooting Moving Subjects

Use the < 5 > (Sports) mode to shoot a moving subject, such as a running person or a moving vehicle.

Shooting Tips

Use a telephoto lens.

Use of a telephoto lens is recommended for shooting from a distance.

Use the center AF point to focus.

Aim the center AF point over the subject, then press the shutter button halfway to autofocus. During autofocusing, the beeper will continue beeping softly. If focus cannot be achieved, the focus indicator < o > will blink.

The default setting is < i > (Continuous shooting). At the decisive moment, press the shutter button completely to take the picture. If you keep holding down the shutter button, you can shoot continuously while maintaining autofocus to capture changes in the subject’s movement.

90

The built-in flash will not fire even in backlit or low-light conditions.

Under low light where camera shake tends to occur, the viewfinder’s shutter speed display on the bottom left will blink. Hold the camera steady and shoot.

If you are using an external Speedlite, the Speedlite will fire.

C

Photographing Children

When you want to continuously focus on and photograph children running around, use < C > (Kids). Skin tones will look healthy.

Shooting Tips

Use the center AF point to focus.

Aim the center AF point over the subject, then press the shutter button halfway to autofocus. During autofocusing, the beeper will continue beeping softly. If focus cannot be achieved, the focus indicator < o > will blink.

Shoot continuously.

The default setting is < i > (Continuous shooting). At the decisive moment, press the shutter button completely to take the picture. If you keep holding down the shutter button, you can shoot continuously while maintaining autofocusing to capture changes in the subject’s facial expression and movement.

While the flash is recharging, “ D buSY ” is displayed in the viewfinder, and a picture cannot be taken. Take the picture after this display turns off.

See the cautions on page 98.

91

4

Shooting Close-ups

When you want to shoot flowers or small things up close, use the < 4 >

(Close-up) mode. To make small things appear much larger, use a macro lens (sold separately).

Shooting Tips

Use a simple background.

A simple background makes small objects such as flowers stand out better.

Move in as close as possible to the subject.

Check the lens for its minimum focusing distance. Some lenses have indications such as < 0.25m/0.8ft

> on them. The lens minimum focusing distance is measured from the < V > (focal plane) mark on the top of the camera to the subject. If you are too close to the subject and focus cannot be achieved, the focus indicator < o > will blink.

If the built-in flash is fired and the bottom part of the picture comes out unnaturally dark, move away a little from the subject and try again.

With a zoom lens, use the telephoto end.

When using a zoom lens, using the telephoto end will make the subject look larger.

92

P

Shooting Food

When shooting food, use < P > (Food). The photo will look bright and appetizing. Also, depending on the light source, the reddish tinge will be suppressed in the pictures taken under tungsten lights, etc.

Shooting Tips

Change the color tone.

You can change [ Color tone ]. To increase the food’s reddish tinge, set it toward [ Warm ]. Set it toward [ Cool ] if it looks too red.

Avoid using flash.

If you use flash, the light may reflect off the dish or food and results in unnatural shadows. Therefore, < b > (Built-in flash off) is set by default. Try to prevent camera shake when shooting in low-light locations.

Since this mode lets you shoot the food in appetizing color tones, human subjects may be photographed with an unsuitable skin tone.

The warm color cast of subjects may fade.

When multiple light sources are included on the screen, the warm color cast of the picture may not be reduced.

If you use flash, the [ Color tone ] setting will switch to the standard.

93

x

Shooting Candlelight Portraits

When you want to photograph a human subject lit in candlelight, use

< x > (Candlelight). The atmosphere of candlelight is reflected in the color tones of the picture.

Shooting Tips

Use the center AF point to focus.

Aim the center AF point in the viewfinder over the subject, then shoot.

Prevent camera shake if the numeric display (shutter speed) in the viewfinder blinks.

Under low light, the viewfinder’s shutter speed display will blink.

Hold the camera steady or use a tripod. When using a zoom lens, you can reduce the blur caused by camera shake by setting the lens to the wide-angle end.

Change the color tone.

You can change [ Color tone ]. To increase the candlelight’s reddish tinge, set it toward [ Warm ]. Set it toward [ Cool ] if it looks too red.

94

Live View shooting is not possible.

Flash photography is not possible. In low light, the AF-assist beam may

be emitted (p.117).

6

Shooting Night Portraits (With a Tripod)

When you want to photograph people at night and obtain a naturallooking night scene in the background, use the < 6 > (Night Portrait) mode. Using a tripod is recommended.

Shooting Tips

Use a wide-angle lens and a tripod.

When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end to obtain a wide night view. Also, since camera shake is prone to occur with handheld shooting, use a tripod.

Check the subject’s brightness.

Under low light, the built-in flash will fire automatically to obtain a good exposure of the subject.

Note that it is recommended to play back the captured image on location to check the image brightness. If the subject looks dark, move nearer and shoot again.

Also shoot in other shooting modes.

Since camera shake is prone to occur with night shots, shooting also with < A > and < F > is recommended.

Tell the subject to keep still even after the flash fires.

If you use the self-timer together with flash, the self-timer lamp will light up briefly after the picture is taken.

See the cautions on page 98.

95

F

Shooting Night Scenes (Handheld)

Using a tripod when shooting a night scene gives the best results.

However, the < F > (Handheld Night Scene) mode enables you to shoot night scenes even while handholding the camera. In this shooting mode, four shots are taken consecutively for each picture, and the resulting one image with reduced camera shake is recorded.

Shooting Tips

Hold the camera firmly.

During shooting, hold the camera firmly and steadily. In this mode, four shots are aligned and merged into a single image. However, if there is significant misalignment in any of the four shots due to camera shake, they may not align properly in the final image.

For shots including people, fire the flash.

If you are to include people in the night scene shot, press the < Q > button to set < D > (Built-in flash on). To take a nice portrait, the first shot will use flash. Tell the subject not to move until all four consecutive shots are taken.

96

Compared to other shooting modes, the shooting range will be smaller.

See the cautions on pages 98-99.

G

Shooting Backlit Scenes

When shooting a scene having both the bright and dark areas, use the

< G > (HDR Backlight Control) mode. When you take one picture in this mode, three consecutive shots are taken at different exposures. This results in one image, with a wide tonal range, that has minimized the clipped shadows caused by backlighting.

Shooting Tips

Hold the camera firmly.

During shooting, hold the camera firmly and steadily. In this mode, three shots are aligned and merged into a single image. However, if there is significant misalignment in any of the three shots due to camera shake, they may not align properly in the final image.

Compared to other shooting modes, the shooting range will be smaller.

Flash photography is not possible. In low light, the AF-assist beam may

be emitted (p.117).

See the cautions on page 99.

HDR stands for High Dynamic Range.

97

98

Cautions for < q > Group Photo

Since distortion correction is applied, the camera records an image area narrower than the one seen through the viewfinder. (The image periphery is slightly trimmed and the resolution looks slightly lowered.)

Also, during Live View shooting, the angle of view changes slightly.

Cautions for < C > Kids

During Live View shooting, if flash is fired in continuous shooting, the continuous shooting speed will decrease. Even if the flash is not fired for subsequent shots, shooting will still be performed with the decreased continuous shooting speed.

Cautions for < 6 > Night Portrait and < F > Handheld Night Scene

During Live View shooting, achieving focus may be difficult with point sources of light, such as may be found in a night scene. In such a case, set the lens’s focus mode switch to < MF > and focus manually.

The Live View image displayed will not look exactly the same as the actual captured image.

Cautions for < 6 > Night Portrait

During Live View shooting, achieving focus may be difficult when the face of the subject looks dark. In such a case, set the lens’s focus mode switch to < MF > and focus manually.

Cautions for < F > Handheld Night Scene and < G > HDR Backlight

Control

You cannot select 1 + 73 or 1 . If 1 + 73 or 1 is set, the image will be recorded in 73 quality.

If you shoot a moving subject, the subject’s movement may leave afterimages, or the surrounding area of the subject may become dark.

The image alignment may not function properly with repetitive patterns

(lattice, stripes, etc.), flat or single-tone images, or images significantly misaligned due to camera shake.

It takes some time to record images to the card since they are merged after shooting. During the image processing, “ buSY ” will be displayed in the viewfinder, and you cannot take another picture until the processing is complete.

Cautions for < F > Handheld Night Scene

In flash photography, if the subject is too close to the camera, the picture may come out extremely bright (overexposure).

In flash photography, if you shoot a night scene with limited lights, the shots may not align correctly. This may result in a blurry picture.

In flash photography, if the human subject is close to the background that is also illuminated by the flash, the shots may not align correctly. This may result in a blurry picture. Unnatural shadows and unsuitable colors may also appear.

Flash coverage angle with an external Speedlite:

• When using a Speedlite with automatic flash coverage setting, the zoom position will be fixed to the wide (wide-angle) end regardless of the lens’s zoom position.

• When using a Speedlite requiring manual flash coverage setting, set the flash head to the normal position.

Cautions for < G > HDR Backlight Control

The image may not be rendered with a smooth gradation and may look irregular or have significant noise.

HDR Backlight Control may not be effective for excessively backlit scenes or extremely high-contrast scenes.

When shooting subjects that are sufficiently bright as they are, for example for normally lit scenes, the image may look unnatural due to the

HDR effect.

Shooting with Creative Filter Effects

In the < v > (Creative filter) mode, you can apply one of ten filter effects

(Grainy B/W*, Soft focus*, Fish-eye effect*, Water painting effect*, Toy camera effect*, Miniature effect*, HDR art standard, HDR art vivid, HDR art bold, and HDR art embossed) for shooting. When the camera is set for Live View shooting, you can see the effect on the screen before you start shooting. The camera saves only the image with the Creative filter effects applied.

For the effects marked with an asterisk, you can also take a picture without a

During Live View Shooting

With Grainy B/W, the grainy effect displayed on the LCD monitor will look different from the grainy effect recorded in the picture.

With the Soft focus and Miniature effects, the blurred effect displayed on the LCD monitor may look different from the blurred effect recorded in the picture.

The histogram is not displayed.

Magnified view is not possible.

In Creative Zone modes, you can set some Creative filters with Quick

Control (p.205).

Creative Filter Characteristics

G Grainy B/W

Creates a grainy black-and-white photo. You can change the blackand-white effect by adjusting the contrast.

W Soft focus

Gives the image a soft look. You can change the degree of softness by adjusting the blur.

X Fish-eye effect

Gives the effect of a fish-eye lens. The image will have a barrel-type distortion.

Depending on the level of this filter effect, the area trimmed along the periphery of the image changes. Also, since this filter expands the center part of the image, the resolution at the center may decrease depending on the number of recorded pixels. Check the image on the screen when setting this filter. The AF point will be fixed to the one at the center.

102

v Shooting with Creative Filter Effects

Z Water painting effect

Makes the photo look like a watercolor painting with soft colors. You can control the color density by adjusting the filter effect. Note that night scenes or dark scenes may not be rendered with a smooth gradation and may look irregular or have significant noise.

H Toy camera effect

Darkens the photo’s corners and applies a unique color tone that makes it look as if it was shot by a toy camera. You can change the color cast by adjusting the color tone.

c Miniature effect

Creates a diorama effect.

If you want the image center to look sharp, take the picture without changing any setting.

To move the area that looks sharp (miniature effect frame) in Live

View shooting, see “Adjusting Miniature Effect” (p.105). The AF

method will be Live 1-point AF. Positioning the miniature effect frame over the AF point before shooting is recommended.

During viewfinder shooting, aim the center AF point over the subject and shoot.

A HDR art standard

Clipped highlights and shadows will be reduced. The low contrast and flat gradation create a painting-like effect. The subject outlines will have bright (or dark) edges.

B HDR art vivid

The colors are more saturated than with [ HDR art standard ], and the low contrast and flat gradation create a graphic art effect.

For < A > < B > < C > < D >, clipped highlights and shadows will be reduced for a high dynamic range of tones even with high-contrast scenes.

Three images of different exposures are captured continuously for each shot and merged into a single image. See the cautions on

page 104.

103

v Shooting with Creative Filter Effects

C HDR art bold

The colors are the most saturated, making the subject pop out, and the picture looks like an oil painting.

D HDR art embossed

The color saturation, brightness, contrast and gradation are decreased to make the picture look flat. The picture looks faded and old. The subject outlines will have bolder bright (or dark) edges.

104

Cautions for < A > HDR Art Standard, < B > HDR Art Vivid,

< C > HDR Art Bold, and < D > HDR Art Embossed

Compared to other shooting modes, the image area will be smaller.

The Live View image displayed with the filter applied will not look exactly the same as the actual captured image.

If you shoot a moving subject, the subject’s movement may leave afterimages, or the surrounding area of the subject may become dark.

The image alignment may not function properly with repetitive patterns

(lattice, stripes, etc.), flat or single-tone images, or images significantly misaligned due to camera shake.

If you are handholding the camera, try to prevent camera shake when shooting.

The color gradation of the sky or white walls may not be reproduced correctly. Irregular exposure, irregular colors, or noise may appear.

Shooting under fluorescent or LED lighting may result in unnatural color reproduction of the illuminated areas.

It takes some time to record images to the card since they are merged after shooting. During the image processing, “ buSY ” will be displayed in the viewfinder, and you cannot take another picture until the processing is complete.

Flash photography is not possible. Note that in low light, the AF-assist

One-Shot AF for Still Subjects

AF point

Focus indicator

Suited for still subjects. When you press the shutter button halfway, the camera will focus only once.

The dot inside the AF point achieving focus lights up briefly in red, and the focus indicator < o > in the viewfinder will also light up.

With evaluative metering, the exposure setting will be set at the same time focus is achieved.

While you keep holding down the shutter button halfway, the focus will be locked. You can then recompose the shot if desired.

If focus cannot be achieved, the focus indicator < o > in the viewfinder will blink. If this occurs, the picture cannot be taken even if the shutter button is pressed completely. Recompose the shot or see “Subjects

Difficult to Focus on” (p.121) and try to focus again.

If [ 5 3: Beep ] is set to [ Disable ], the beeper will not sound when focus is achieved.

After achieving focus with One-Shot AF, you can lock the focus on a subject and recompose the shot. This is called “focus lock”. This is useful when you want to focus on a peripheral subject.

When a lens equipped with an electronic manual focusing function is

used, see page 118.

115

f : Changing the Autofocus Operation N

AI Servo AF for Moving Subjects

This AF operation is suited for moving subjects when the focusing distance keeps changing. While you hold down the shutter button halfway, the camera will keep focusing on the subject continuously.

The exposure is set at the moment the picture is taken.

When the AF point selection (p.119) is automatic, the camera first

uses the center AF point to focus. During autofocusing, if the subject moves away from the center AF point, focus tracking continues as long as the subject is covered by another AF point.

With AI Servo AF, the beeper will not sound even when focus is achieved.

Also, the focus indicator < o > in the viewfinder will not light up.

AI Focus AF for Switching the AF Operation Automatically

AI Focus AF switches the AF operation from One-Shot AF to AI

Servo AF automatically if a still subject starts moving.

After the subject is in focus in One-Shot AF, if the subject starts moving, the camera will detect the movement, change the AF operation automatically to AI Servo AF, and start tracking the moving subject.

When focus is achieved with AI Focus AF with the Servo operation active, the beeper will continue beeping softly. However, the focus indicator < o > in the viewfinder will not light up. Note that focus lock is not possible in this case.

116

f : Changing the Autofocus Operation N

AF-Assist Beam with the Built-in Flash

Under low-light conditions, when you press the shutter button halfway, the built-in flash may fire a brief burst of flashes. This illuminates the subject to help autofocusing.

AF-assist beam will not be emitted from the built-in flash in < 7 > < 8 :

5C > modes.

AF-assist beam will not be emitted from the built-in flash when [ Built-in flash firing ] is set to < b > in < A >, < C >, < 8 : 2q4PF >, or

< v : GWXZHc > mode.

The AF-assist beam will not be emitted with AI Servo AF operation.

The built-in flash makes a sound when firing continuously. This is normal and not a malfunction.

The effective range of the AF-assist beam emitted by the built-in flash is approx. 4 meters / 13.1 feet.

In Creative Zone modes, when you raise the built-in flash with the < D > button, the AF-assist beam will be emitted as necessary. Note that depending on the setting for [ 5: AF-assist beam firing ] under [ 5 4:

Custom Functions (C.Fn)

Shooting Tips

When shooting a portrait up close, use One-Shot AF and focus on the eyes.

If you set the composition after focusing on the eyes of the person to be photographed, the vivid facial expression will stand out more in the picture.

If it is difficult to focus, select the center AF point.

The center AF point has the highest focusing performance among the nine AF points.

When you want to keep focusing on a moving subject easily, use automatic AF point selection and AI Servo AF in combination

(p.116)

.

The center AF point will first be used to focus on the subject. During autofocusing, if the subject moves away from the center AF point, focus tracking continues as long as the subject is covered by another AF point.

120

If you use an extender (sold separately) in combination and the open aperture f/number becomes higher than f/5.6, AF shooting will not be possible (except in Live View shooting). For details, refer to the extender’s instruction manual.

Subjects Difficult to Focus on

Autofocus may fail to achieve focus (focus indicator < o > in the viewfinder blinks) with special subjects such as the following:

Subjects with very low contrast

(Example: Blue skies, solid-color flat surfaces, etc.)

Subjects in very low light

Strongly backlit or reflective subjects

(Example: Cars with highly reflective bodies, etc.)

Near and distant subjects positioned close to an AF point

(Example: Animals in cages, etc.)

Light source such as dots of light positioned close to an AF point

(Example: Night scenes, etc.)

Subjects with repetitive patterns

(Example: Skyscraper windows, computer keyboards, etc.)

Subjects with finer patterns than an AF point

(Example: Faces or flowers as small as or smaller than an AF point, etc.)

In such cases, focus in either of the following two ways.

(1) With One-Shot AF, focus on an object at the same distance as the

subject and lock the focus, then recompose the shot (p.75).

(2) Set the lens’s focus mode switch to < MF > and focus manually.

Depending on the subject, focus may be achieved by slightly recomposing the shot and performing AF operation again.

For conditions that make focusing difficult with AF during Live View

shooting or movie shooting, see page 221.

What’s the difference between

7

and

8

?

These settings indicate the different levels of image quality caused by different compression rates. The 7 setting produces a higher image quality with the same number of pixels. Although 8 produces a slightly lower image quality, this allows more images to be saved on the card. b will be in 7 (Fine) quality.

I was able to take more shots than the number of possible shots indicated.

Depending on the shooting conditions, you may be able to take more shots than is indicated. On the contrary, it may also be fewer than indicated. The number of possible shots displayed is only approximate.

Does the camera display the maximum burst?

The maximum burst is displayed on the viewfinder’s right side. Since it is only a single-digit indicator 0 - 9 , any number higher than 8 will be displayed only as “ 9 ”. Note that this number will also be displayed even when no card is installed in the camera. Be careful not to shoot without a card in the camera.

When should I use 1 ?

Shooting in high temperatures may result in images that look grainier.

Long exposures can also cause irregular colors in the image.

When you shoot at high ISO speeds, noise (such as dots of light and banding) may become noticeable.

If you use a high ISO speed and flash to shoot a close subject, overexposure may result.

When shooting in conditions that produce an extreme amount of noise, such as a combination of high ISO speed, high temperature, and long exposure, images may not be recorded properly.

As “ H ” (equivalent to ISO 51200) is an expanded ISO speed setting, noise (dots of light, banding, etc.) and irregular colors will be more noticeable, and the resolution will be lower compared to the standard setting.

Automatic ISO speed setting: ISO [AUTO]

If the ISO speed is set to [ AUTO ], the actual ISO speed setting will be displayed in the viewfinder or on the

White balance (WB) is for making the white areas look white. Normally, the Auto [ Q ] (Ambience priority) or [ Q w ] (White priority) setting will obtain the correct white balance. If natural-looking colors cannot be obtained with Auto, you can select the white balance to match the light source or set it manually by shooting a white object.

In Basic Zone modes, [ Q ] (Ambience priority) is set automatically. (In the < P > mode, [ Q w ] (White priority) is set.)

White Balance

To the human eye, a white object looks white regardless of the type of lighting. With a digital camera, the white for color correction basis is decided depending on the color temperature of the illumination, and then the color is adjusted with software to make the white areas look white. With this function, you can take the pictures with natural color tones.

X The WB correction/WB bracketing screen will appear.

Sample setting: A2, G1

2

Set the white balance correction.

Press the < W > < X > or < Y > < Z > keys to move the “ ” mark to the appropriate position.

B is for blue, A for amber, M for magenta, and G for green. The image’s color balance will be adjusted toward the color in the direction of the move.

On the right of the screen, “ Shift ” indicates the direction and correction amount, respectively.

Pressing the < L > button will cancel all the [ WB Shift/Bkt.

] settings.

Press < 0 > to exit the setting and return to the menu.

You can set the camera to display < i > in the viewfinder and on the LCD

monitor for when white balance correction is set (p.369).

147

u Adjusting the Color Tone for the Light Source N

White Balance Auto Bracketing

With just one shot, three images with different color tones can be recorded simultaneously. Based on the color temperature of the current white balance setting, the image will be bracketed with a blue/amber bias and magenta/green bias. This function is called white balance bracketing (WB Bkt.). White balance bracketing is possible up to ±3 levels in single-level increments.

B/A bias ±3 levels

Set the white balance bracketing amount.

In step 2 for “White Balance

Correction”, when you turn the < 6 > dial, the “ ” mark on the screen will change to “ ” (3 points).

Turning the dial clockwise sets the B/

A bracketing, and turning it counterclockwise sets the M/G bracketing.

X On the right, “ Bracket ” indicates the bracketing direction and correction amount.

Pressing the < L > button will cancel all the [ WB Shift/Bkt.

] settings.

Press < 0 > to exit the setting and return to the menu.

Bracketing Sequence

The images will be bracketed in the following sequence: 1. Standard white balance, 2. Blue (B) bias, and 3. Amber (A) bias, or 1. Standard white balance, 2. Magenta (M) bias, and 3. Green (G) bias.

During white balance bracketing, the maximum burst will be lower and the number of possible shots will also decrease to approx. one-third the normal number.

Since three images are recorded for one shot, it takes longer to record the image to the card.

148

You can also set white balance correction and AEB together with white balance bracketing. If you set AEB in combination with white balance bracketing, a total of nine images will be recorded for a single shot.

During Live View shooting, the white balance icon will blink.

“ Bkt.

” stands for bracketing.

Auto Correction of Brightness and Contrast

N

If the image comes out dark or the contrast is low, the brightness and contrast can be corrected automatically. This function is called Auto

Lighting Optimizer. The default setting is [ Standard ]. With JPEG images, the correction is applied when the image is captured.

In Basic Zone modes, [ Standard ] is set automatically.

1

Select [Auto Lighting Optimizer].

Under the [ z 3 ] tab, select [ Auto

Lighting Optimizer ], then press

< 0 >.

2

Select the setting.

Setting Noise Reduction

N

High ISO Speed Noise Reduction

This function reduces the noise generated in the image. Although noise reduction is applied at all ISO speeds, it is particularly effective at high

ISO speeds. When shooting at low ISO speeds, the noise in the darker parts of the image (shadow areas) can further be reduced. Change the setting to match the noise level.

1

Select [High ISO speed NR].

Under the [ z 4 ] tab, select [ High ISO speed NR ], then press < 0 >.

2

Set the level.

Select the desired noise reduction level, then press < 0 >.

[ M : Multi Shot Noise Reduction]

Applies the noise reduction with higher image quality than [ High ].

For a single photo, four shots are taken continuously and aligned and merged automatically into a single JPEG image.

If the image-recording quality is set to 1 or 1 + 73 , you cannot set [ Multi Shot Noise Reduction ].

3

Take the picture.

The image will be recorded with noise reduction applied.

150

You can set the camera to display < i > in the viewfinder for when Multi Shot

Noise Reduction is set (p.369).

3 Setting Noise Reduction N

When [Multi Shot Noise Reduction] is Set

If there is significant misalignment in the image due to camera shake, the noise reduction effect may become smaller.

If you are handholding the camera, keep it steady to prevent camera shake. Using a tripod is recommended.

If you shoot a moving subject, the moving subject may leave afterimages.

The image alignment may not function properly with repetitive patterns

(lattice, stripes, etc.) or flat, single-tone images.

If the subject’s brightness changes as the four consecutive shots are taken, irregular exposure in the image may result.

After shooting, it may take some time to record an image to the card after performing noise reduction and merging the images. During the image processing, “ buSY ” will be displayed in the viewfinder, and you cannot take another picture until the processing is complete.

You cannot use AEB and white balance bracketing.

If [ z 4: Long exp. noise reduction ], AEB, or white balance bracketing is set, [ Multi Shot Noise Reduction ] cannot be set.

The [ Distortion ] setting will be set automatically to [ Disable ].

Flash photography is not possible. However, the AF-assist beam will be emitted according to the setting of [ 5: AF-assist beam firing ] under

[ 5 4: Custom Functions(C.Fn) ].

You cannot set [ Multi Shot Noise Reduction ] for bulb exposures.

If you turn off the power, change the shooting mode to a Basic Zone mode, shoot a bulb exposure, or shoot a movie, the setting will automatically be changed to [ Standard ].

[ z 4: Dust Delete Data ] cannot be set.

< 0 >.

[Auto]

For exposures of 1 sec. or longer, noise reduction is performed automatically if noise typical of long exposures is detected. This

[ Auto ] setting is effective enough in most cases.

[Enable]

Noise reduction is performed for all exposures of 1 sec. or longer.

The [ Enable ] setting may reduce noise that cannot be detected with the [ Auto ] setting.

3

Take the picture.

The image will be recorded with noise reduction applied.

152

With [ Auto ] or [ Enable ] set, the noise reduction process after the picture is taken may take the same amount of time as that for the exposure. You cannot take another picture until the noise reduction process is complete.

Images taken at ISO 1600 or higher may look grainier with the [ Enable ] setting than with the [ Disable ] or [ Auto ] setting.

With [ Auto ] or [ Enable ] set, if a long exposure is used with the Live View image displayed, “ BUSY ” will be displayed during the noise reduction process. The Live View display will not appear until the noise reduction is complete. (You cannot take another picture.)

Correction of Lens Aberrations due to

Optical Characteristics

N

Peripheral light fall-off is a phenomenon that makes the image corners look darker due to the optical characteristics of the lens. Color fringing along subject outlines is called chromatic aberration. Image distortion due to optical characteristics of the lens is called distortion. And decreased image sharpness due to the aperture is called diffraction phenomenon. These lens aberrations can be corrected.

By default, [ Peripheral illum corr ], [ Chromatic aberr corr ], and

[ Diffraction correction ] are set to [ Enable ], and [ Distortion correction ] is set to [ Disable ].

If the lens correction data is registered (saved) in the camera, peripheral illumination correction, chromatic aberration correction, and diffraction correction will be applied even in Basic Zone modes.

If the setting screen displays [ Correction data not available ] or the

[ F ] icon, it means that the correction data for the respective lens is not

registered in the camera. See “Lens Correction Data” on page 157.

The image will be recorded with the peripheral illumination corrected.

Depending on shooting conditions, noise may appear on the image periphery.

The higher the ISO speed, the lower the correction amount will be.

If you use the magnified view during Live View shooting, the peripheral illumination correction will not be reflected in the image displayed on the screen.

154

The correction amount applied will be slightly lower than the maximum correction amount that can be applied with Digital Photo Professional (EOS

software, p.444).

Select [ Enable ], then press < 0 >.

3

Take the picture.

The image will be recorded with the distortion corrected.

155

3 Correction of Lens Aberrations due to Optical Characteristics N

Since distortion correction is applied, the camera records an image range narrower than the one seen through the viewfinder. (The image periphery is slightly trimmed and the resolution looks slightly lowered.)

Distortion correction will be reflected in the captured image, but it cannot be seen in the viewfinder during shooting.

Distortion correction cannot be set during movie shooting or when Multi

Shot Noise Reduction is set.

Using distortion correction during Live View shooting will slightly affect the angle of view.

When you magnify the image during Live View shooting, distortion correction is not applied to the image displayed. Therefore, magnifying the periphery of the image may display parts of the image that will not be recorded.

Images with distortion correction applied will not have the Dust Delete

Data (p.304) appended. Also, the AF point(s) will not be displayed

(p.349) for image playback.

Diffraction Correction

1

2

Select [Diffraction correction].

Select [Enable].

Select [ Enable ], then press < 0 >.

3

Take the picture.

The image will be recorded with the diffraction corrected.

Depending on shooting conditions, noise may be intensified together with the effects of correction.

The higher the ISO speed, the lower the correction amount will be.

Diffraction correction will not be applied to the Live View image.

For movie shooting, [ Diffraction correction ] will not appear. (Correction is not possible.)

156

With “Diffraction correction”, degraded resolution due to the low-pass filter, etc. is corrected in addition to diffraction. Therefore, correction is effective even at an aperture close to the open aperture.

3 Correction of Lens Aberrations due to Optical Characteristics N

Lens Correction Data

The lens correction data for lens aberration corrections is registered

(stored) in the camera. With [ Enable ] selected, the peripheral illumination correction, chromatic aberration correction, distortion correction, and diffraction correction will be applied automatically.

With EOS Utility (EOS software, p.444), you can check which lenses

have their correction data registered in the camera. You can also register the correction data for unregistered lenses. For details, refer to the EOS Utility Instruction Manual.

For lenses incorporating the correction data, it is not necessary to register the correction data to the camera.

157

3 Correction of Lens Aberrations due to Optical Characteristics N

General Cautions for Lens Aberration Correction

Peripheral illumination correction, chromatic aberration correction, distortion correction, and diffraction correction cannot be applied to

JPEG images already taken.

When using a non-Canon lens, setting the corrections to [ Disable ] is recommended even if [ Correction data available ] is displayed.

The correction amount will be less (except for diffraction correction) if the lens used does not have distance information.

General Notes for Lens Aberration Correction

The effect of the lens aberration correction varies depending on the lens used and shooting conditions. Also, the effect may be difficult to discern depending on the lens used, shooting conditions, etc.

If the effect of the correction is not visible, magnify the image after shooting and check it again.

Corrections can be applied even when an extender or life-size converter is attached.

If the correction data for the attached lens is not registered to the camera, the result will be the same as when the correction is set to

[ Disable ] (except for diffraction correction).

In Basic Zone modes, peripheral illumination correction, chromatic aberration correction, and diffraction correction will be applied automatically. Distortion correction will be applied automatically only in the < q > mode.

158

3

Setting the Color Reproduction Range

N

The range of reproducible colors is called “color space”. With this camera, you can set the color space for captured images to sRGB or

Adobe RGB. For normal shooting, sRGB is recommended.

In Basic Zone modes, [ sRGB ] is set automatically.

1

Select [Color space].

Under the [ z 3 ] tab, select [ Color space ], then press < 0 >.

2

Set the desired color space.

Select [ sRGB ] or [ Adobe RGB ], then press < 0 >.

Adobe RGB

This color space is mainly used for commercial printing and other industrial uses. This setting is not recommended if you are not familiar with image processing, Adobe RGB, and Design rule for Camera File

System 2.0 (Exif 2.21 or higher). The image will look very subdued in an sRGB computer environment and with printers not compliant to Design rule for Camera File System 2.0 (Exif 2.21 or higher). Post-processing of the image with computer software will therefore be required.

If the still photo is shot in the Adobe RGB color space, the first character in the file name will be an underscore “_”.

The ICC profile is not appended. For explanations about the ICC profile, refer to the Digital Photo Professional Instruction Manual.

The LCD monitor displays the shutter speed as a fraction. However, the viewfinder displays only the denominator. “ 0"5 ” indicates 0.5 sec. and “ 15" ” is 15 sec.

s : Conveying the Subject’s Movement

Shooting Tips

To freeze the motion of a fast-moving subject

Use a fast shutter speed such as 1/4000 sec. to 1/500 sec. according to the speed of the moving subject.

To blur a running child or animal and convey an impression of motion

Use a medium shutter speed such as 1/250 sec. to 1/30 sec. Follow the moving subject through the viewfinder and press the shutter button to take the picture. If you use a telephoto lens, hold it steady to prevent camera shake.

To blur a flowing river or fountain

Use a slow shutter speed of 1/30 sec. or slower. Use a tripod to prevent hand-held camera shake.

Set the shutter speed so that the aperture display does not blink.

If you press the shutter button halfway and change the shutter speed with the aperture displayed, the aperture value will also change to maintain the same exposure (amount of light reaching the image sensor). In this operation, if the aperture value exceeds the adjustable range, it will blink to indicate that the standard exposure cannot be obtained.

If the exposure will be too dark, the maximum aperture (lowest f/number) will blink. If this happens, turn the < 6 > dial counterclockwise to set a slower shutter speed or increase the ISO speed.

If the exposure will be too bright, the minimum aperture (highest f/number) will blink. If this happens, turn the < 6 > dial clockwise to set a faster shutter speed or decrease the ISO speed.

D

Using the Built-in Flash

To obtain a correct flash exposure on the main subject, the flash output will be set automatically (autoflash) to match the automatically-set aperture. Note that the range of settable shutter speed will be limited within 1/200 sec. to 30 sec.

165

f

: Changing the Depth of Field

To blur the background or to make everything near and far look sharp, set the Mode Dial to < f > (Aperture-priority AE) to adjust the depth of field (range of acceptable focus).

* < f > stands for Aperture value (the size of the lens diaphragm opening).

Blurred background

(With a low aperture f/number: f/5.6)

Sharp foreground and background

(With a high aperture f/number: f/32)

1

Set the Mode Dial to <

f

>.

2

Set the desired aperture.

The higher the f/number, the wider the depth of field where sharper focus is obtained in both the foreground and background.

Turning the < 6 > dial clockwise sets a higher f/number (smaller aperture opening), and turning it counterclockwise sets a lower f/number (larger aperture opening).

3

Take the picture.

When you focus and press the shutter button completely, the picture will be taken with the set aperture.

166

Aperture Value Display

The higher the f/number, the smaller the aperture opening will be. The f/number displayed will differ depending on the lens. If no lens is attached to the camera, “ 00 ” will be displayed for the aperture.

f : Changing the Depth of Field

Shooting Tips

When using an aperture with a high f/number or shooting in low light scenes, note that camera shake can occur.

A higher aperture f/number will make the shutter speed slower.

Under low light, the shutter speed can be as long as 30 sec. In such cases, increase the ISO speed and hold the camera steady or use a tripod.

The depth of field will vary depending not only on the aperture, but also on the lens and on the subject distance.

Since wide-angle lenses have a wide depth of field (range of acceptable focus in front of and behind the point of focus), you need not set a high aperture f/number to obtain a sharp picture from the foreground to the background. On the other hand, a telephoto lens has a narrow depth of field.

And the closer the subject, the narrower the depth of field. A farther subject will have a wider depth of field.

Set the aperture so that the shutter speed display does not blink.

If you press the shutter button halfway and change the aperture with the shutter speed displayed, the shutter speed will also change to maintain the same exposure (amount of light reaching the image sensor). In this operation, if the shutter speed exceeds the adjustable range, it will blink to indicate that the standard exposure cannot be obtained.

If the picture will be too dark, the “ 30" ” (30 sec.) shutter speed display will blink. If this happens, turn the < 6 > dial counterclockwise to set a lower f/number or increase the ISO speed.

If the picture will be too bright, the “ 4000 ” (1/4000 sec.) shutter speed display will blink. If this happens, turn the < 6 > dial clockwise to set a higher f/number or decrease the ISO speed.

Using the Built-in Flash

To obtain a correct flash exposure, the flash output will be automatically controlled (autoflash) to match the set aperture. The shutter speed will be set automatically within the range of 1/200 sec. - 30 sec. to match the brightness of the scene.

In low light, the main subject is exposed with the autoflash, and the background is exposed with a slow shutter speed set automatically. The picture comes out with the standard exposure for both the subject and background with a touch of the atmosphere (automatic slow-speed flash sync). If you are handholding the camera, keep it steady to prevent camera shake. Using a tripod is recommended to prevent camera shake.

To prevent a slow shutter speed, under [ z 2: Flash control ], set

[ Flash sync. speed in Av mode ] to [ 1/200-1/60sec. auto ] or [ 1/200 sec. (fixed)

] (p.190).

Depth-of-Field Preview

N

The aperture opening (diaphragm) changes only at the moment when the picture is taken. Otherwise, the aperture remains fully open.

Therefore, when you look at the scene through the viewfinder or on the

LCD monitor, the depth of field will look narrow.

Press the depth-of-field preview button to stop down the lens to the current aperture setting and check the depth of field (range of acceptable focus).

168

While looking at the Live View image (p.196) and holding down the depth-of-

field preview button, you can see how the range of acceptable focus will change as you adjust the aperture.

Exposure Compensation with ISO Auto

If the ISO speed is set to [ AUTO ] for manual exposure shooting, you

can set exposure compensation (p.174) as follows:

[ z 2: Expo.comp./AEB ]

[ 5:Expo comp (hold btn, turn S ) ] with [ 9: Assign SET button ] under [ 5 4: Custom Functions(C.Fn)

] (p.371)

Quick Control (p.58)

If ISO Auto is set, the ISO speed setting will change to obtain the standard exposure with the set shutter speed and aperture. Therefore, you may not obtain the desired exposure effect. In such a case, set the exposure compensation.

If flash is used when ISO Auto is set, exposure compensation will not be applied even if an exposure compensation amount is set.

Under [ z 3: Auto Lighting Optimizer ], if the checkmark [ X ] for

[ Disable during man expo ] is removed, Auto Lighting Optimizer can be set even in the < a

> mode (p.149).

When ISO Auto is set, you can press the < A > button to lock the ISO speed.

If you press the < A > button and recompose the shot, you can see the exposure level difference on the exposure level indicator compared to when the < A > button was pressed.

If exposure compensation (p.174) was applied in <

D

Using the Built-in Flash

To obtain a correct flash exposure on the main subject, the flash output will be set automatically (autoflash) to match the manually-set aperture.

Note that the range of settable shutter speed will be limited within 1/200 sec. to 30 sec. or to bulb.

a : Manual Exposure

BULB: Long (Bulb) Exposures

Elapsed exposure time

A bulb exposure keeps the shutter open for as long as you hold down the shutter button. It can be used to shoot fireworks and other subjects requiring long exposures.

In step 3 on page 169, turn the <

6 > dial to the left to set < BULB >. The elapsed exposure time will be displayed on the LCD monitor.

Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun or an intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the camera’s internal components.

Since long bulb exposures produce more noise than usual, the image may look slightly grainy.

If ISO Auto is set, the ISO speed will be ISO 400.

When shooting bulb exposures, if you use both the self-timer and mirror lockup, keep pressing the shutter button completely (for self-timer delay time + bulb exposure time). If you let go of the shutter button during the self-timer countdown, there will be a shutter-release sound, but no picture will be taken.

You can reduce the noise due to long exposures by setting [ z 4: Long exp. noise reduction ] to [ Auto ] or [ Enable

] (p.151).

For bulb exposures, using a tripod and a remote switch (sold separately,

p.385) is recommended.

You can also use Wireless Remote Control BR-E1 (sold separately,

p.382) for bulb exposures. When you press the BR-E1’s release button

(transmit button), the bulb exposure will start immediately or 2 sec. later.

Press the button again to stop the bulb exposure.

You can turn off the elapsed exposure time display by pressing the

< U > button.

q

Evaluative metering

General-purpose metering mode suited even for backlit subjects. The camera adjusts the exposure automatically to suit the scene.

w

Partial metering

Effective where there are much brighter lights around the subject due to backlight, etc. The gray area in the left figure is approximately where the brightness is metered to obtain the standard exposure.

r

Spot metering

Effective when metering a specific part of the subject or scene. The gray area in the left figure is approximately where the brightness is metered to obtain the standard exposure. This metering mode is for advanced users.

172

q Changing the Metering Mode N e

Center-weighted average metering

The metering is averaged for the entire scene with the screen center weighted more heavily.

This metering mode is for advanced experts.

With q (Evaluative metering), the exposure setting will be locked when you press the shutter button halfway and focus is achieved. In the w (Partial metering), r (Spot metering), and e (Center-weighted average metering) modes, the exposure is set at the moment the picture is taken. (Pressing the shutter button halfway does not lock the exposure.)

173

Setting the Desired Exposure Compensation

N

Set exposure compensation if the results of shooting without using the flash are not as bright as expected. This feature can be used in Creative

Zone modes (except < a >). You can set the exposure compensation up to ±5 stops* in 1/3-stop increments.

If the < a

> mode and ISO Auto are both set, see page 170 to set the

exposure compensation.

* In Live View shooting/movie shooting, or when [ s : Shooting screen ] is set to

[ Guided ], exposure compensation can be set up to ±3 stops.

[ Disable ], the image may still look bright even if a decreased exposure compensation for a darker image is set.

The set exposure compensation level will not be applied to movie shooting.

When you set the power switch to < 2 >, the exposure compensation setting will be canceled.

The exposure compensation amount displayed in the viewfinder goes up to only ±2 stops. If the exposure compensation amount exceeds ±2 stops, the end of the exposure level indicator will display < I > or < J >.

If you want to set exposure compensation exceeding ±2 stops, setting it with [ z 2: Expo.comp./AEB

] (p.176) is recommended.

175

The AEB setting will also be canceled automatically if the power switch is set to < 2 >, flash recharging is complete, etc.

Shooting Tips

Using AEB with continuous shooting

If you set the drive mode to < i > or < M

> (p.123) and press the

shutter button completely, the three bracketed shots will be taken consecutively in the sequence of standard exposure, decreased exposure, and increased exposure, and then the camera will automatically stop shooting.

Using AEB with single shooting ( u / B )

Press the shutter button three times to take the three bracketed shots. The shots will be taken in the sequence of standard exposure, decreased exposure, and increased exposure.

Using AEB with the self-timer or a remote controller (sold separately)

With the self-timer (< m > < l >), Wireless Remote Control BR-E1

< Q > or Remote Switch RS-60E3, you can take three consecutive shots after a 10-sec. or 2-sec. delay. With < q

> (p.125) set, the

number of consecutive shots will be three times the number set.

During AEB, < A > and AEB range in the viewfinder will blink.

AEB cannot be used with flash, when [ Multi Shot Noise Reduction ] is set, for shooting with a Creative filter, or with bulb exposures.

If [ z 3: Auto Lighting Optimizer

] (p.149) is set to any setting other than

[ Disable ], the effect of AEB may be reduced.

When you press the shutter button completely, the mirror locks up.

The picture will be then taken 10 sec. or 2 sec. later.

Remote control shooting

Since you do not touch the camera when the picture is taken, remote control shooting together with mirror lockup can further reduce the

camera vibration blur (p.382).

With Wireless Remote Control BR-E1 (sold separately) set to the 2sec. delay, press the release button to lock up the mirror, and the picture will be taken 2 sec. after the mirror lockup.

With Remote Switch RS-60E3 (sold separately), press the release button completely to lock up the mirror, and press it completely again to take the picture.

179

Mirror Lockup to Reduce Camera Vibration Blur N

Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun or an intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the camera’s internal components.

In very bright light, such as at the beach or a ski slope on a sunny day, take the picture promptly after mirror lockup is stabilized.

When shooting with mirror lockup, if you use both the self-timer and bulb exposures, keep pressing the shutter button completely (for self-timer delay time + bulb exposure time). If you let go of the shutter button during the self-timer countdown, there will be a shutter-release sound, but no picture will be taken.

During mirror lockup, shooting function settings, menu operations, etc. are disabled.

When you use flash, the red-eye reduction lamp will not light up (p.183).

Even if you set the drive mode to < i >, < M >, or < q >, the camera will still shoot in single shooting mode.

When [ z 4: High ISO speed NR ] is set to [ Multi Shot Noise

Reduction ], four consecutive shots will be taken for a single picture regardless of the [ 6: Mirror lockup ] setting.

If approx. 30 sec. elapse after the mirror has locked up, it will go back down automatically. Pressing the shutter button completely locks up the mirror again.

When shooting with mirror lockup, using a tripod and Wireless Remote

Control BR-E1 (sold separately, p.382) or Remote Switch RS-60E3 (sold

separately, p.385) is recommended.

Using an External Speedlite

EOS-dedicated, EX-series Speedlites

Using an EX-series Speedlite (sold separately) makes flash photography easy.

For operation procedures, refer to the EX-series Speedlite’s

Instruction Manual. This camera is a Type-A camera that can use all the features of EX-series Speedlites.

To set the flash functions and flash Custom Functions on the camera’s

menu screen, see pages 189-194.

Shoe-mount Speedlites Macro Lites

With an EX-series Speedlite not compatible with the flash function

settings (p.189), only [

Flash exp. comp ] and [ E-TTL II meter.

] can be set for [ External flash func. setting ]. ([ Shutter sync.

] can also be set with certain EX-series Speedlites.)

If flash exposure compensation is set with the external Speedlite, the flash exposure compensation icon displayed on the camera’s LCD monitor will change from y to 0 (when [ s : Shooting screen ] is set to [ Standard ]).

187

D Using an External Speedlite

Canon Speedlites Other Than the EX-series

With an EZ/E/EG/ML/TL-series Speedlite set to A-TTL or TTL autoflash mode, the flash is fired at full output at all times.

Set the camera’s shooting mode to < a > (manual exposure) or

< f > (aperture-priority AE) and adjust the aperture setting before shooting.

When using a Speedlite that has manual flash mode, shoot in the manual flash mode.

Using Non-Canon Flash Units

Sync Speed

The camera can synchronize with compact, non-Canon flash units at

1/200 sec. or slower shutter speeds. Use a sync speed slower than

1/200 sec.

Be sure to test the flash unit beforehand to make sure it synchronizes properly with the camera.

Cautions for Live View Shooting

A non-Canon flash will not fire during Live View shooting.

188

If the camera is used with a flash unit or flash accessory dedicated to another camera brand, the camera not only may not operate properly, but malfunction may result.

Do not attach a high-voltage flash unit to the camera’s hot shoe. It may not be fired.

E-TTL II Flash Metering

For normal flash exposures, set it to

[ Evaluative ]. If [ Average ] is set, the flash exposure will be averaged for the entire metered scene. Depending on the scene, flash exposure compensation may be necessary. This setting is for advanced users.

Even if [ Flash firing ] is set to [ Disable ], if focus is difficult to achieve in low

light, the flash may still fire a series of flashes (AF-assist beam, p.117).

189

3 Setting the Flash Function N

Flash Sync. Speed in Av Mode

You can set the flash-sync speed for flash photography in the aperture-priority

AE < f > mode.

4 : Auto

The flash sync speed is set automatically within a range of 1/200 sec. to 30 sec. to suit the scene’s brightness. High-speed sync is also possible. (The shutter speed is set automatically within a range of 1/4000 to 30 sec.)

6 : 1/200-1/60 sec. auto

Prevents a slow shutter speed from being set in low-light conditions.

It is effective for preventing subject blur and camera shake.

However, while the subject will be properly exposed with the flash, the background may come out dark.

7 : 1/200 sec. (fixed)

The flash sync speed is fixed at 1/200 sec. This more effectively prevents subject blur and camera shake than with [ 1/200-1/60sec. auto ]. However, in low light, the subject’s background will come out darker than with [ 1/200-1/60sec. auto ].

190

If [ 1/200-1/60sec. auto ] or [ 1/200 sec. (fixed) ] is set, high-speed sync is not possible in the < f > mode with the external Speedlite.

3 Setting the Flash Function N

Flash mode

When using an external Speedlite, you can select the flash mode to suit your desired photographic effects.

[ E-TTL II ] is the standard mode of

EX-series Speedlites for automatic flash photography.

[ Manual flash ] is the mode for advanced users who want to set the

[ Flash output ] (1/1 to 1/128) themselves.

Regarding other flash modes, refer to the instruction manual of a Speedlite compatible with the respective flash mode.

Shutter synchronization

Normally, set this to [ First-curtain synchronization ] so that the flash fires immediately after the exposure starts.

If [ Second-curtain synchronization ] is set, the flash will be fired right before the shutter closes. When this is combined with a slow shutter speed, you can create a trail of light such as from car headlights at night with a more natural feel. When second-curtain synchronization is set together with [ E-TTL II ], the flash will be fired twice in a row: once when you press the shutter button completely and once right before the end of the exposure. Also, if the shutter speed is 1/30 sec. or faster, first-curtain synchronization will be applied automatically.

If an external Speedlite is attached, you can also select [ High-speed synchronization ] ( e ). For details, refer to the Speedlite’s instruction manual.

Flash exposure compensation

See “Flash Exposure Compensation” on page 184.

With a fully-charged Battery Pack LP-E17, continuous Live View shooting is possible for approx. 2 hr. 15 min. at room temperature (23°C / 73°F).

Continuous Shooting Display

During Live View shooting, if you perform < i > Continuous shooting with One-Shot AF, keep holding down the shutter button completely to display (play back) the captured images continuously. When the continuous shooting ends (shutter button is returned to halfway position), the Live View image will be displayed.

Depending on the shooting conditions such as when shooting with flash or shooting long exposures, the captured images may not be displayed (played back) continuously.

197

A Shooting with the LCD Monitor

In the < 8 : x > mode, Live View shooting is not possible.

In the < 8 : q > mode, the angle of view changes slightly in Live View shooting because distortion correction is applied.

In the < 8 : FG > and < v : ABCD > modes, the image area will be smaller.

For flash photography, the continuous shooting speed will become slower.

Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun or an intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the camera’s internal components.

General Live View Shooting Cautions are on pages 230-231.

When flash is used, there will be two shutter sounds, but only one shot will be taken. Also, the time it takes to take the picture after you press the shutter button completely will be longer than with viewfinder shooting.

If the camera is not operated for a prolonged period, the power will turn off automatically after the time set in [ 5 2: Auto power off

] (p.288). If

[ 5 2: Auto power off ] is set to [ Disable ], Live View shooting will end automatically after 30 min. (Camera power remains on.)

With the HDMI cable, you can display the Live View image on a TV set

(p.333). Note that no sound will be output. If the picture does not appear

on the TV screen, check if the [ 5 3: Video system ] is correctly set to

[ For NTSC ] or [ For PAL ] (depending on the video system of your TV set).

Creative Filter Characteristics

G Grainy B/W

Creates a grainy black-and-white photo. You can change the blackand-white effect by adjusting the contrast.

W Soft focus

Gives the image a soft look. You can change the degree of softness by adjusting the blur.

X Fish-eye effect

Gives the effect of a fish-eye lens. The image will have a barrel-type distortion.

Depending on the level of this filter effect, the area trimmed along the periphery of the image changes.

Notes for AF

AF Operation

Even when focus is achieved, pressing the shutter button halfway will focus again.

The image brightness may change during and after the AF operation.

Depending on the subject and shooting conditions, it may take longer to focus, or the continuous shooting speed may decrease.

If the light source changes while the Live View image is displayed, the screen may flicker and focusing may be difficult. If this happens, exit Live View shooting and perform AF under the actual light source under which you are shooting.

220

If you cannot achieve focus with AF, set the lens’s focus mode switch to

< MF

> and focus manually (p.228).

If you shoot the subject at the periphery and it is slightly out of focus, recompose to move the subject (and AF point) toward the screen center, focus again, then take the picture.

The AF-assist beam will not be emitted. However, if an EX-series

Speedlite (sold separately) equipped with an LED light is used, the LED light will turn on for AF-assist as necessary.

With certain lenses, it may take more time to achieve focus with autofocus, or accurate focusing may not be achieved.

General Live View Shooting Cautions

Image Quality

When you shoot at high ISO speeds, noise (such as dots of light and banding) may become noticeable.

Shooting in high temperatures may cause noise and irregular colors in the image.

If Live View shooting is used continuously for a prolonged period, the camera’s internal temperature may rise, and image quality may deteriorate. Always exit Live View shooting when you are not shooting.

If you shoot a long exposure while the camera’s internal temperature is high, image quality may deteriorate. Exit Live View shooting and wait a few minutes before shooting again.

White < s > and Red < E > Internal Temperature Warning Icons

If the camera’s internal temperature increases due to prolonged Live

View shooting or under a high ambient temperature, a white < s > or red

< E > icon will appear.

The white < s > icon indicates that the image quality of still photos will deteriorate. It is recommended that you temporarily exit Live View shooting and allow the camera to cool down before shooting again.

The red < E > icon indicates that the Live View shooting will soon stop automatically. If this happens, you will not be able to shoot again until the camera’s internal temperature decreases. Temporarily exit the Live View shooting or turn off the power and let the camera rest for a while.

Using Live View shooting at a high temperature for a prolonged period will cause the < s > or < E > icon to appear earlier. When you are not shooting, always turn off the camera.

If the camera’s internal temperature is high, the quality of images shot with a high ISO speed or long exposure may deteriorate even before the white < s > icon is displayed.

Shooting Results

If you take the picture in magnified view, the exposure may not come out as desired. Return to the normal view before taking the picture. In magnified view, the shutter speed and aperture will be displayed in orange. Even if you take the picture in magnified view, the image will be captured with the image area of the normal view.

If you use a TS-E lens (except the TS-E17mm f/4L or TS-E24mm f/3.5L

II) for shifting or tilting the lens or if you use an extension tube, the standard exposure may not be obtained, or an irregular exposure may result.

General Live View Shooting Cautions

Live View Image

Under low- or bright-light conditions, the Live View image may not reflect the brightness of the captured image.

Even if a low ISO speed is set, noise may be noticeable in the displayed

Live View image under low light. However, when you shoot, the image recorded will have less noise. (The image quality of the Live View image is different from that of the recorded image.)

If the light source (illumination) within the image changes, the screen may flicker. If this happens, exit Live View shooting and resume Live

View shooting under the actual light source.

If you point the camera in a different direction, it may throw off the Live

View image’s correct brightness momentarily. Wait until the brightness level stabilizes before shooting.

If there is a very bright light source in the image, the bright area may appear black on the LCD monitor. However, the actual captured image will correctly show the bright area.

In low light, if you set the [ 5 2: LCD brightness ] to a bright setting, noise or irregular colors may appear in the Live View image. However, the noise or irregular colors will not be recorded in the captured image.

When you magnify the image, the image sharpness may look more pronounced than in the actual image.

If the shutter speed is 1 sec. or slower, “ BUSY ” is displayed on the LCD monitor, and the Live View display will not appear until the exposure is complete.

Custom Functions

During Live View shooting, certain Custom Function settings will not take

effect (p.365).

Lens and Flash

If the attached lens has an Image Stabilizer and you set the Image

Stabilizer (IS) switch to < 1 >, the Image Stabilizer will operate at all times even if you do not press the shutter button halfway. The Image

Stabilizer consumes battery power and may decrease the number of possible shots depending on the shooting conditions. When the Image

Stabilizer is not necessary, such as when using a tripod, it is recommended that you set the IS switch to < 2 >.

The focus preset function is possible for Live View shooting only when using a (super) telephoto lens equipped with the focus preset mode released in and after the second half of 2011.

FE lock will not work if the built-in flash is used. FE lock and modeling flash will not work if an external Speedlite is used.

Focus and shoot the movie.

The procedure is the same as steps 3 and 4 for “Autoexposure Shooting”

(p.234).

ISO Speed During Manual Exposure Shooting

With [ AUTO ], the ISO speed will be set automatically within

ISO 100 - ISO 12800. The maximum limit varies depending on the

[ k ISO Auto

] setting (p.277).

You can set the ISO speed manually within ISO 100 - ISO 12800 in whole-stop increments. Under [ 5 4: Custom Functions(C.Fn) ], if you set [ 2: ISO expansion ] to [ 1:On ], the maximum limit of the manual ISO speed setting range will be expanded so you can also select H (equivalent to ISO 25600).

Under [ 5 4: Custom Functions(C.Fn) ], if [ 4: Highlight tone priority ] is set to [ 1:Enable ], the ISO speed will be ISO 200 -

ISO 12800.

Since shooting a movie at ISO 25600 equivalent may result in much noise, it is designated as an expanded ISO speed (displayed as “ H ”).

When switching from still photo shooting to movie shooting, check the camera settings again before shooting movies.

Changing the shutter speed or aperture during movie shooting is not recommended since the changes in the exposure will be recorded.

When shooting a movie of a moving subject, a shutter speed of approx.

1/30 sec. to 1/125 sec. is recommended. The faster the shutter speed, the less smooth the subject’s movement will look.

If you change the shutter speed while shooting under fluorescent or LED lighting, image flicker may be recorded.

If you set [ 5:Expo comp (hold btn, turn S ) ] with [ 9: Assign SET button ] under [ 5 4: Custom Functions(C.Fn)

] (p.371), you can use

exposure compensation with ISO Auto set.

When ISO Auto is set, you can press the < A > button to lock the ISO speed.

If you press the < A > button and recompose the shot, you can see the

Cautions for Movie Shooting

Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun or an intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the camera’s internal components.

When you press the shutter button halfway to autofocus during movie shooting, the following phenomena may occur.

• Focus may become far off momentarily.

• The brightness of the recorded movie may change.

• The recorded movie may be momentarily still.

• The movie may record the lens mechanical sound.

If < Q > or < Q w > is set and the ISO speed or aperture changes during movie shooting, the white balance may also change.

If you shoot a movie under fluorescent or LED lighting, the movie image may flicker.

Shooting a few test movies is recommended if you intend to perform zooming during movie shooting. Zooming during movie shooting may result in recording of changes in exposure or mechanical sound of the lens, or images may be out of focus.

During movie shooting, you cannot magnify the image even if you press the < u > button.

Be careful not to cover the built-in microphones (p.234) with your fingers,

etc.

If you connect or disconnect the HDMI cable during movie shooting, the movie shooting will end.

General Movie Shooting Cautions are on pages 278-279.

If necessary, also read “General Live View Shooting Cautions” on

pages 230-231.

242

Do not hold the camera in the same position for long periods of time.

Even if the camera does not feel too hot, prolonged contact with the same body part may cause skin redness or blistering due to low-temperature contact burns. Using a tripod is recommended when using the camera in very hot places or for people with circulation problems or very sensitive skin.

Notes for Movie Shooting

Each time you shoot a movie, a new movie file is created on the card.

The movie image’s field of view is approx. 100% (with movie recording size set to [ 1920x1080 ]).

Stereo sound is recorded by the camera’s built-in microphones.

If you connect the Directional Stereo Microphone DM-E1 (sold

separately) to the camera’s external microphone IN terminal (p.28), the

external microphone is given the priority.

Most external microphones equipped with a 3.5 mm diameter mini plug can be used.

With a fully-charged Battery Pack LP-E17, the possible movie shooting time will be as follows: approx. 2 hr. at room temperature (23°C / 73°F) and approx. 1 hr. 45 min. at low temperatures (0°C / 32°F) (with movie recording size set to L6 / 5X and [ z 4: Movie Servo AF:

Disable ] set).

The focus preset function is possible for movie shooting when using a

Cautions When [Movie Servo AF] is Set to [Enable]

Shooting Conditions that Make Focusing Difficult

• A fast-moving subject approaching or moving away from the camera.

• A subject moving at a close distance to the camera.

• Also see “Shooting Conditions that Make Focusing Difficult” on page

221.

Since the lens is driven continuously and battery power is consumed, the

possible movie shooting time (p.246) will be shortened.

With certain lenses, the mechanical sound for focusing may be recorded.

In such a case, using Directional Stereo Microphone DM-E1 (sold separately) may reduce such sounds in the movie. Also, using certain

USM lenses (for example, the EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM) or certain STM lenses (for example, the EF-S18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM) will reduce the lens mechanical sound that is recorded.

Movie Servo AF will pause during zooming or magnified view.

During movie shooting, if a subject approaches or moves away or if the camera is moved vertically or horizontally (panning), the recorded movie image may momentarily expand or contract (change in image magnification).

If you want to set the lens’s focus mode switch to < MF > during Movie

Servo AF, first set the camera’s power switch to < 1 >.

General Movie Shooting Cautions

Red < E > Internal Temperature Warning Icon

If the camera’s internal temperature increases due to prolonged movie shooting or under a high ambient temperature, a red < E > icon will appear.

The red < E > icon indicates that movie shooting will soon be terminated automatically. If this happens, you will not be able to shoot again until the camera’s internal temperature decreases. Turn off the power and let the camera rest for a while.

Shooting a movie at a high temperature for a prolonged period will cause the < E > icon to appear earlier. When you are not shooting, always turn off the camera.

Recording and Image Quality

If the attached lens has an Image Stabilizer and you set the Image

Stabilizer (IS) switch to < 1 >, the Image Stabilizer will operate at all times even if you do not press the shutter button halfway. The Image

Stabilizer consumes battery power and may shorten the total movie shooting time depending on the shooting conditions. When the Image

Stabilizer is not necessary, such as when using a tripod, it is recommended that you set the IS switch to < 2 >.

The camera’s built-in microphones will also record the operation sound and mechanical sound of the camera during shooting. Using the

Directional Stereo Microphone DM-E1 (sold separately) may reduce these sounds in the movie.

Do not connect anything other than an external microphone to the camera’s external microphone IN terminal.

If the brightness changes during autoexposure movie shooting, the movie image may freeze temporarily. In such a case, shoot movies with manual exposure.

If there is a very bright light source in the image, the bright area may appear black on the LCD monitor. The movie will be recorded almost exactly as it appears on the LCD monitor.

In low light, noise or irregular colors may appear in the image. The movie will be recorded almost exactly as it appears on the LCD monitor.

If you play back a movie with other devices, image or sound quality may deteriorate or playback may not be possible (even if the devices support

MOV/MP4 format).

General Movie Shooting Cautions

Recording and Image Quality

If you use a card with a slow writing speed, a five-level indicator may appear on the right of the screen during movie shooting. It indicates how much data has not yet been written to the card (remaining capacity of the internal buffer memory). The slower the card, the faster the indicator will climb upward. If the indicator becomes full, movie shooting will stop automatically.

Indicator

If the card has a fast writing speed, the indicator will either not appear or the level (if displayed) will hardly go upward.

First, shoot a few test movies to see if the card can write fast enough.

Playback and TV Connection

If you connect the camera to a TV set (p.333) and shoot a movie, the TV

set will not output any sound during the shooting. However, the sound will be properly recorded.

Restrictions on MP4-format Movies

Note that generally, the following restrictions apply to MP4-format movies.

Sound will not be recorded for approx. the last two frames.

When you play back movies on Windows, movie images and sound may become slightly out of synchronization.

3 Manual Sensor Cleaning N

When Multi Shot Noise Reduction is set, [ Clean manually ] cannot be selected.

While cleaning the sensor, never do any of the following. If the power is cut off, the shutter will close and the shutter curtains and image sensor may get damaged.

• Setting the power switch to < 2 >.

• Removing or inserting the battery.

The surface of the image sensor is extremely delicate. Clean the sensor with care.

Use a plain blower without any brush attached. A brush can scratch the sensor.

Do not insert the blower tip inside the camera beyond the lens mount. If the power is turned off, the shutter will close and the shutter curtains or reflex mirror may get damaged.

Never use pressurized air or gas to clean the sensor. Pressurized air may damage the sensor, and sprayed gas may freeze on the sensor and scratch it.

If the battery level becomes low while cleaning the sensor, the beeper will sound as a warning. Stop cleaning the sensor.

If a smudge that cannot be removed with a blower remains, having the sensor cleaned by a Canon Service Center is recommended.

Enjoying Movies

The three main ways to play back and enjoy movies are as follows:

Playback on a TV Set

(p.333)

By connecting the camera to a TV set with an HDMI cable, you can play back the captured movies and still photos on the TV set.

Since hard disk recorders do not have an HDMI IN terminal, the camera cannot be connected to a hard disk recorder with an HDMI cable.

Even if the camera is connected to a hard disk recorder with a USB cable, movies and still photos cannot be played back or saved.

Movies cannot be played back on devices that do not support MOVformat or MP4-format movie files.

Playback on the Camera’s LCD Monitor

(p.326-332)

You can play back movies on the camera’s LCD monitor. You can also edit out the movie’s first and last scenes and can play back the still photos or movies on the card in an automatic slide show.

A movie edited with a computer cannot be rewritten to the card and played back with the camera.

324

k Enjoying Movies

Playback and Editing with a Computer

The movie files recorded on the card can be transferred to a computer and played back or edited with pre-installed or general-purpose software compatible with the movie’s recording format.

To play back or edit a movie with commercially-available software, use software compatible with MOV-format and MP4-format movies. For details on commercially-available software, contact the software manufacturer.

Histogram

The brightness histogram shows the exposure level distribution and overall brightness. The RGB histogram is for checking the color saturation and gradation. The display can be switched with [ x 3:

Histogram disp ].

[Brightness] Display

This histogram is a graph showing the distribution of the image’s brightness level. The horizontal axis indicates the brightness level (darker on the left and brighter on the right), while the vertical axis indicates how many pixels exist for each brightness level. The more pixels there are toward the left, the darker the image. The more pixels there are toward the right, the brighter the

Sample Histograms

Dark image

Normal brightness image. If there are too many pixels on the left, the shadow detail will be lost. If there are too many pixels on the right, the highlight detail will be lost.

The gradation in-between will be reproduced. By Bright image checking the image and its brightness histogram, you can see the exposure level inclination and the overall gradation.

[RGB] Display

This histogram is a graph showing the distribution of each primary color’s brightness level in the image (RGB or red, green, and blue).

The horizontal axis indicates the color’s brightness level (darker on the left and brighter on the right), while the vertical axis indicates how many pixels exist for each color brightness level. The more pixels there are toward the left, the darker and less prominent the color. The more pixels there are toward the right, the brighter and denser the color. If there are too many pixels on the left, the respective color information will be lacking. If there are too many pixels on the right, the color will be too saturated with no gradation. By checking the image’s RGB histogram, you can see the color’s saturation and gradation condition, as well as white balance inclination.

Save the image.

Select [ OK ] to save the image.

Check the destination folder and image file number, then select [ OK ].

To apply a filter to another image, repeat steps 2 to 5.

When shooting 1 + 73 or 1 image, the Creative filter will be applied to the 1 image and the image will be saved as a JPEG image.

If an aspect ratio was set for a 1 image and the filter effect is applied to it, the image will be saved in the aspect ratio that is set.

Dust Delete Data (p.304) will not be appended to images with Fish-eye

effect applied.

Creative Filter Characteristics

G Grainy B/W

Creates a grainy black-and-white photo. You can change the blackand-white effect by adjusting the contrast.

W Soft focus

Gives the image a soft look. You can change the degree of softness by adjusting the blur.

X Fish-eye effect

Gives the effect of a fish-eye lens. The image will have a barrel-type distortion.

Depending on the level of this filter effect, the area trimmed along the periphery of the image changes. Also, since this filter effect will magnify the image center, the apparent resolution at the center may degrade depending on the number of recorded pixels. Set the filter effect in step 4 while checking the resulting image.

357

U Applying Creative Filter Effects

Y Art bold effect

Makes the photo look like an oil painting and the subject look more three-dimensional. You can adjust the contrast and saturation. Note that subjects such as the sky or white walls may not be rendered with a smooth gradation and may look irregular or have significant noise.

Z Water painting effect

Makes the photo look like a watercolor painting with soft colors. You can control the color density by adjusting the filter effect. Note that night scenes or dark scenes may not be rendered with a smooth gradation and may look irregular or have significant noise.

H Toy camera effect

Darkens the photo’s corners and applies a unique color tone that makes it look as if it was shot by a toy camera. You can change the color cast by adjusting the color tone.

c Miniature effect

Creates a diorama effect. You can change where the image looks sharp. In step 4, if you press the < B > button (or tap on [ T ] on the screen), you can switch between the white frame’s vertical and horizontal orientations.

Using Eye-Fi Cards

With a commercially-available Eye-Fi card already set up, you can automatically transfer captured images to a computer or upload them to an online service via a wireless LAN.

The image transfer is a function of the Eye-Fi card. For instructions on how to set up and use the Eye-Fi card or to troubleshoot any image transfer problems, refer to the Eye-Fi card’s instruction manual or contact the card manufacturer.

The camera is not guaranteed to support Eye-Fi card functions

(including wireless transfer). In case of a problem with an Eye-

Fi card, please check with the card manufacturer. Also note that approval is required to use Eye-Fi cards in many countries or regions. Without approval, use of the card is not permitted.

If it is unclear whether the card has been approved for use in your area, please check with the card manufacturer.

1

Insert an Eye-Fi card

(p.38)

.

2

Select [Eye-Fi settings].

H Using Eye-Fi Cards

Cautions for Using Eye-Fi Cards

Under [ Wi-Fi settings ] of [ 5 1: Wireless communication settings ], if

[ Wi-Fi ] is set to [ Enable ], image transfer with an Eye-Fi card will not be possible.

If “ J ” is displayed, an error occurred while retrieving the card information. Turn the camera’s power switch off and on again.

Even if [ Eye-Fi trans.

] is set to [ Disable ], it may still transmit a signal. In hospitals, on airplanes, and in other places where wireless transmissions are prohibited, remove the Eye-Fi card from the camera beforehand.

If the image transfer does not function, check the Eye-Fi card and computer settings. For details, refer to the card’s instruction manual.

Depending on the wireless LAN’s connection conditions, the image transfer may take longer or it may be interrupted.

Because of the communication function, the Eye-Fi card may become hot.

The camera’s battery power will be consumed faster.

During the image transfer, auto power off will not take effect.

If you insert a wireless LAN card other than an Eye-Fi card, [ Eye-Fi settings ] will not appear. Also, the transmission status icon < H > will not appear.

Troubleshooting Guide

If a problem occurs with the camera, first consult this Troubleshooting

Guide. If this Troubleshooting Guide does not resolve the problem, contact your dealer or nearest Canon Service Center.

Power-Related Problems

The battery does not recharge.

Do not use any battery other than genuine Canon Battery Pack

LP-E17.

The battery charger’s lamp blinks.

If (1) the battery charger or battery has a problem or (2) communication with the battery failed (with a non-Canon battery pack), the protection circuit will stop charging, and the charge lamp will blink in orange. In the case of (1), unplug the charger’s power plug from the power outlet. Detach and reattach the battery to the charger. Wait two or three minutes, then reconnect the power plug to the power outlet. If the problem persists, contact your dealer or nearest Canon Service

Center.

The camera is not activated even when the power switch is set to <

1

>.

Make sure the battery is installed properly in the camera (p.38).

Make sure the card slot/battery compartment cover is closed (p.38).

Recharge the battery (p.36).

Press the < U

> button (p.70).

The access lamp still blinks even when the power switch is <

2

>.

If the power is turned off while an image is being recorded to the card, the access lamp will remain on or continue to blink for a few seconds.

When the image recording is complete, the power will turn off automatically.

412

Troubleshooting Guide

[Battery communication error. Does this battery/do these batteries display the Canon logo?] is displayed.

Do not use any battery other than genuine Canon Battery Pack

LP-E17.

Remove and install the battery again (p.38).

If the electrical contacts are dirty, use a soft cloth to clean them.

The battery becomes exhausted quickly.

Use a fully-charged battery (p.36).

The battery performance may have degraded. See [ 5 3: Battery info.

]

to check the battery’s recharge performance level (p.380). If the

battery performance is poor, replace the battery with a new one.

The number of possible shots will decrease with any of the following operations:

• Pressing the shutter button halfway for a prolonged period.

• Activating the AF frequently without taking a picture.

• Using the lens’s Image Stabilizer.

• Using the LCD monitor frequently.

• Continuing Live View shooting or movie shooting for a prolonged period.

• Using the Bluetooth function.

• Using the Wi-Fi function.

• The Eye-Fi card’s transmission is enabled.

The camera turns off by itself.

Auto power off is in effect. If you do not want auto power off to take effect, set [ 5 2: Auto power off ] to [ Disable

] (p.288).

Even if [ 5 2: Auto power off ] is set to [ Disable ], the LCD monitor will still turn off after the camera is left idle for approx. 30 min.

(The camera’s power does not turn off.) Press the < U > button to turn on the LCD monitor.

413

Troubleshooting Guide

Shooting-Related Problems

The lens cannot be attached.

The camera cannot be used with EF-M lenses (p.48).

No images can be shot or recorded.

Make sure the card is properly inserted (p.38).

Slide the card’s write-protect switch to the Write/Erase setting (p.38).

If the card is full, replace the card or delete unnecessary images to

make space (p.38, 339).

You cannot take a picture when focus indicator < o > in the viewfinder blinks during focusing with One-Shot AF. Press the shutter button half-

way again to refocus automatically, or focus manually (p.51, 122).

The card cannot be used.

If a card error message is displayed, see page 40 or 427.

An error message is displayed when the card is inserted in another camera.

Since SDXC cards are formatted in exFAT, if you format a card with this camera and then insert it into another camera, an error may be displayed and it may not be possible to use the card.

414

Troubleshooting Guide

The image is out of focus or blurred.

Set the lens’s focus mode switch to < AF

> (p.48).

Press the shutter button gently to prevent camera shake (p.50-51).

With a lens equipped with the Image Stabilizer, set the IS switch to

< 1 >.

In low light, the shutter speed may become slow. Use a faster shutter

speed (p.164), set a higher ISO speed (p.132), use flash (p.182), or

use a tripod.

I cannot lock the focus and recompose the shot.

Set the AF operation to One-Shot AF. Focus lock is not possible in the

AI Servo AF mode or when servo takes effect in AI Focus AF mode

(p.114).

Horizontal stripes appear, or the exposure or color tone look strange.

Horizontal stripes (noise) or irregular exposures can be caused by fluorescent lighting, LED lighting, or other light sources during viewfinder or Live View shooting. Also, the exposure or color tone may not come out right. A slow shutter speed may reduce the problem.

415

Troubleshooting Guide

The standard exposure cannot be obtained or the exposure is irregular.

During viewfinder shooting or Live View shooting, if you use a TS-E lens (except the TS-E17mm f/4L or TS-E24mm f/3.5L II) and shift or tilt the lens or use an extension tube, the standard exposure may not be obtained or the exposure may be irregular.

The continuous shooting speed is slow.

The maximum continuous shooting speed may become slower depending on the shutter speed, aperture, subject conditions, brightness, lens, flash use, temperature, battery type, remaining

battery level, shooting function settings, etc. For details, see page 124.

The maximum burst during continuous shooting is lower.

If you shoot a subject that has fine detail such as a field of grass, the file size will be larger, and the actual maximum burst may be lower

than the number listed on page 129.

ISO 100 cannot be set.

Under [ 5 4: Custom Functions(C.Fn) ], if [ 4: Highlight tone priority ] is set to [ 1:Enable ], ISO 100 cannot be set. If [ 0:Disable ] is set, ISO

100 can be set (p.367). This also applies to movie shooting (p.239).

416

Troubleshooting Guide

Expanded ISO speeds cannot be selected.

Under [ 5 4: Custom Functions(C.Fn) ], if [ 4: Highlight tone priority ] is set to [ 1:Enable ], the settable ISO speed range will be ISO 200 -

ISO 25600 (up to ISO 12800 for movies) even when [ 2: ISO expansion ] is set to [ 1:On ]. If [ 0:Disable ] is set for [ 4: Highlight tone priority ], [ H

] can be set (p.367). This also applies to movie shooting

(p.239).

The Auto Lighting Optimizer cannot be set.

Under [ 5 4: Custom Functions(C.Fn) ], if [ 4: Highlight tone priority ] is set to [ 1:Enable ], the Auto Lighting Optimizer cannot be set. If

[ 0:Disable

] is set, the Auto Lighting Optimizer can be set (p.367).

Even if I set a decreased exposure compensation, the image comes out bright.

Set [ z 3: Auto Lighting Optimizer ] to [ Disable ]. When [ Standard ]

[ Low ] [ High ] is set, even if you set a decreased exposure compensation or flash exposure compensation, the image may come

out bright (p.149).

When I use the <

f

> mode with flash, the shutter speed becomes slow.

If you shoot at night when the background is dark, the shutter speed automatically becomes slow (slow-sync shooting) so that both the subject and background are properly exposed. To prevent a slow shutter speed, under [ z 2: Flash control ], set [ Flash sync. speed in

Av mode ] to [ 1/200-1/60sec. auto ] or [ 1/200 sec. (fixed)

] (p.190).

417

Troubleshooting Guide

The built-in flash rises by itself.

In shooting modes (< A > < C > < 8 : 2qC46 >

< v : GWXZH >) whose default setting is < a > (Built-in autoflash), the built-in flash will be raised automatically when necessary.

In the < 8 : xG > and < v : ABCD > modes, when you press the shutter button halfway under low-light conditions, the built-in flash may be raised automatically and emit the AF-assist beam.

The built-in flash does not fire.

If you use the built-in flash too often in too short a period of time, the flash may stop firing for a while to protect the light-emitting unit.

The external flash always fires at full output.

If you use a flash unit other than an EX-series Speedlite, the flash will

always fire at full output (p.188).

Under [ z 2: Flash control ], if [ Flash metering mode ] in [ External flash C.Fn setting ] is set to [ TTL flash metering ] (autoflash), the

flash will always fire at full output (p.194).

Flash exposure compensation cannot be set for the external Speedlite.

If flash exposure compensation is set with the external Speedlite, compensation amount cannot be set with the camera. When the external Speedlite’s flash exposure compensation is canceled (set to

0), flash exposure compensation can be set with the camera.

High-speed sync cannot be set in the <

f

> mode.

Under [ z 2: Flash control ], set [ Flash sync. speed in Av mode ] to

[ Auto

] (p.190).

418

Troubleshooting Guide

The camera makes a noise when it is shaken.

A small noise may be heard when the camera’s internal mechanism moves slightly.

The shutter makes two release sounds during

Live View shooting.

If you use flash, the shutter will make two release sounds each time

you shoot (p.198).

During Live View shooting, a white

s

or red

E

icon is displayed.

It indicates that the camera’s internal temperature is high. If the white

< s > icon is displayed, the still photo’s image quality may deteriorate.

If the red < E > icon is displayed, it indicates that the Live View

shooting will soon stop automatically (p.230).

During movie shooting, the red

E

icon is displayed.

It indicates that the camera’s internal temperature is high. If the red

< E > icon is displayed, it indicates that the movie shooting will soon

stop automatically (p.278).

Movie shooting stops by itself.

If the card’s writing speed is slow, movie shooting may stop

automatically. For cards that can record movies, see page 8. To find

out the card’s writing speed, refer to the card manufacturer’s Web site, etc.

If you shoot a movie for 29 min. 59 sec., the movie shooting will stop automatically.

419

Troubleshooting Guide

The ISO speed cannot be set for movie shooting.

In shooting modes other than < a >, the ISO speed is set automatically.

In the < a

> mode, you can manually set the ISO speed (p.239).

The exposure changes during movie shooting.

If you change the shutter speed or aperture during movie shooting, the changes in the exposure may be recorded.

Zooming the lens during movie shooting may cause changes in the exposure regardless of whether the lens’s maximum aperture changes or not. The changes in the exposure may be recorded as a result.

The subject looks distorted during movie shooting.

If you move the camera to the left or right or shoot a moving subject, the image may look distorted.

The image flickers or horizontal stripes appear during movie shooting.

Flickering, horizontal stripes (noise), or irregular exposures can be caused by fluorescent lighting, LED lighting, or other light sources during movie shooting. Also, changes in the exposure (brightness) or color tone may be recorded. Note that in the < a > mode, a slow shutter speed may reduce the problem.

420

Troubleshooting Guide

Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi cannot be set.

If the camera is connected to a computer or other device with an interface cable, Wi-Fi functions cannot be set. ([ 5 1: Wireless communication settings ] will be grayed out.) Disconnect the interface cable before setting any functions.

Refer to the Wi-Fi (Wireless Communication) Function Instruction

Manual.

Operation Problems

A camera button or dial does not work as expected.

Under [ 5 4: Custom Functions(C.Fn) ], check the [ 9: Assign SET button

] setting (p.371).

For movie shooting, check the [ V btn function

] setting (p.275).

During touch screen operations, the beeper suddenly sounds softer.

Check if your finger is blocking the speaker (p.28).

Touch operation is not possible.

Check if [ 5 3: Touch control ] is set to [ Standard ] or [ Sensitive ]

(p.67).

421

Troubleshooting Guide

Display Problems

The menu screen shows fewer tabs and options.

Certain tabs or menu options are not displayed in Basic Zone modes.

Set the shooting mode to a Creative Zone mode (p.60).

Under the [ 9 ] tab, [ Menu display ] is set to [ Display only My Menu tab

] (p.377).

The file name’s first character is an underscore (“_”).

Set the color space to sRGB. If Adobe RGB is set, the first character

will be an underscore (p.159).

The file name starts with “MVI_”.

It is a movie file (p.294).

The file numbering does not start from 0001.

If the card already contains recorded images, the image file number

may not start from 0001 (p.294).

The shooting date and time displayed are incorrect.

Make sure the correct date and time are set (p.44).

Check the time zone and daylight saving time (p.44).

The date and time are not in the image.

The shooting date and time do not appear in the image. The date and time are recorded in the image data as shooting information. When printing, you can imprint the date and time in the picture, using the

date and time recorded in the shooting information (p.342).

422

Troubleshooting Guide

[###] is displayed.

If the number of images recorded on the card exceeds the number the camera can display, [ ###

] will be displayed (p.319).

The LCD monitor does not display a clear image.

If the LCD monitor is dirty, use a soft cloth to clean it.

In low or high temperatures, the LCD monitor display may seem slow or may look black. It will return to normal at room temperature.

[Eye-Fi settings] does not appear.

[ Eye-Fi settings ] will appear only when an Eye-Fi card is installed in the camera. If the Eye-Fi card has a write-protect switch set to the

LOCK position, you will not be able to check the card’s connection

status or disable Eye-Fi transmission (p.387).

If [ Wi-Fi ] is set to [ Enable ] for [ Wi-Fi settings ] under [ 5 1: Wireless communication settings ], [ Eye-Fi settings ] cannot be selected even when an Eye-Fi card is installed.

423

Troubleshooting Guide

Playback Problems

Part of the image blinks in black.

It is the highlight alert (p.353). Overexposed areas with clipped

highlights will blink.

The image cannot be erased.

If the image is protected, it cannot be erased (p.336).

The movie cannot be played back.

Movies edited with a computer cannot be played back with the camera.

Operation sound and mechanical sound can be heard during movie playback.

If you operate the camera’s dials or lens during movie shooting, the operation sound will also be recorded. Using the Directional Stereo

Microphone DM-E1 (sold separately) is recommended (p.271).

The movie appears to freeze momentarily.

If there is a drastic change in the exposure level during autoexposure movie shooting, the recording will stop momentarily until the brightness stabilizes. In such a case, shoot in the < a

> mode (p.238).

No picture appears on the TV set.

Make sure the [ 5 3: Video system ] is correctly set to [ For NTSC ] or

[ For PAL ] (depending on the video system of your TV set).

Make sure the HDMI cable’s plug is inserted all the way in (p.333).

424

Troubleshooting Guide

There are multiple movie files for a single movie shoot.

If the movie file size reaches 4 GB, another movie file will be created

automatically (p.247). However, if you use an SDXC card formatted

with the camera, you can record a movie in a single file even if it exceeds 4 GB.

My card reader does not recognize the card.

Depending on the card reader used and the computer’s operating system, SDXC cards may not be correctly recognized. In such a case, connect your camera to the computer with the interface cable, then transfer the images to the computer using EOS Utility (EOS software,

p.444).

The image cannot be resized.
