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 your nearest
Canon Service Center. Wipe off any water droplets with a dry cloth. If the camera has been exposed to salty air, wipe with a 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.
® Use a blower to blow away dust on the lens, viewfinder, reflex mirror, and focusing screen. Do not use cleaners that contain organic solvents to clean the camera body or lens. For stubborn dir[, 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 misoperation.
® 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.
® 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, CF card and battery from the camera, and wait until the 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 corrosive chemicals such as a darkroom or chemical lab.
® If the camera has not been used for an extended period, test all its functions before using the camera. If you have not used the camera for some time or if there is an important shoot coming up, have the camera checked by your
Canon dealer or check the camera yourself and make sure it is working properly.
12
Handling Precautions
LCD Monitor
÷ Although the LCD monitor is manufactured with very high precision technology with over 99.99% effective pixels, there might be a few dead pixels among the remaining 0.01% or less pixels. Dead pixels displaying only black or red, etc., 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 temporarily and will disappear when the camera is left unused for a few days.
CF Card
® The CF card is a precision device. Do not drop the CF card or subject it to vibration.
Doing so could damage the images recorded on them.
® Do not store or use the CF card near anything having a strong magnetic field such as a TV set, speakers, or magnet. Also avoid places prone to having static electricity.
Otherwise, the images recorded on the CF card might be lost.
® Do not leave the CF card in direct sunlight or near a heat source. Doing so can warp the cards and make them unusable.
® Do not spill any liquid onto the CF card.
® Always store your CF cards in a case to protect the data stored on them.
® Do not bend the card or subject it to any excessive force or physical shock.
® Do not store the CF card in hot, dusty, or humid locations.

Tips for
Using
the Battery and Charger
®
Recharge the battery
on the day before or on the day it is to be used.
An unused charged batteR/will still gradually lose its power over time. The time required to recharge the battery depends on the ambient temperature and battery's power level.
® Do not recharge the battery for longer than 24 hours (to avoid degrading the battery performance).
® After recharging the battery, detach it and
unplug
the
charger
from the
power
outlet.
® You
can
attach the
cover
in a different orientation to indicate whether the battery has been recharged or not.
If the battery has been recharged, attach the cover so that the battery-shaped hole < E_ > is aligned over the blue seal on the battery. If the battery is exhausted, attach the cover in the opposite orientation.
® Use the battery in an ambient temperature range of 0°C - 40°C / 32°F - 104°F.
To attain best battery performance, an ambient temperature of 10°C - 30°C /
50°F - 86°F is recommended.
In cold locations such as snowy areas, battery performance and operation time may temporarily decrease.
® When not using the
camera,
remove the battery.
If the battery is left in the camera for a prolongedperiod,a small amount of power current is released,resultingin excessdischarge and shorter battery life. Store the battery with the cover attached. Storingthe battery after it is fully chargedcan lower the battery'sperformance.
® 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 the shape of the prongs is different, purchase a plug adapter for that country.
Do not attach any voltage transformer to the battery charger.
Doing so can damage the battery charger.

Recomposing the Shot
Depending on the scene, position the subject toward the left or right to create a balanced background and good perspective.
In the <17 > (Full Auto) mode, while you press the shutter button halfway to focus a still subject, the focus will be locked. You can then recompose the shot and 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 <_,. >).
Shooting a Moving Subject
In the <17 > (Full Auto) mode, if the subject moves (distance to camera changes) during or after you focus, the At Servo AF will take effect to focus the subject continuously.
As long as you keep aiming the AF point on the subject while pressing the shutter button halfway, the focusing will be continuous.
When you want to take the picture, press the shutter button completely.

_t Shooting
Portraits
The < _'_t> (Portrait) mode blurs the background to make the human subject stand out. It also makes flesh tones and the hair look softer than with the <f--I> (Full Auto) mode.
_
Shooting Tips
® The further the distance between the subject and background,
the better,
The further the distance between the subject and background, the more blurred the background will look. The subject will also stand out better in front of a plain, 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 if necessary.
® Focus the face.
Check that the AF point covering the face flashes in red.
[] ® If you hold down the shutter button, you can shoot continuously to obtain different poses and facial expressions.
(Approx. 3 shots/sec. )
@ If necessary, the built-in flash will pop-up automatically.

Shooting Landscapes
Use the < _ > (Landscape) mode for wide scenery, night scenes, and to have everything in focus from near to far. The greens and blues atso become more vivid and sharp than with <f--I> (Full Auto).
_
Shooting Tips
® Use a wide-angle lens.
When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end. This will have objects near and far in focus, better than at the telephoto end. It also adds breadth to landscapes.
® Shooting
night scenes.
Since the built-in flash will be disabled, this mode is atso good for night scenes. For night scenes, use a tripod to prevent camera shake, tf you want to photograph a person against a night scene, set the Mode DiaI to
<[]> and use a tripod. (p.47)
44
Shooting Close-ups
When you want to photograph flowers or small things up close, use the
<,_ > (Close-up) mode. To make small things appear much larger, use a macro lens (optional).
_
Shooting Tips
® Use a simple background.
A simple background makes the flower, etc., stand out better.
® Move to the subject as close as possible.
Check the lens for its minimum focusing distance. Some lenses have indications such as <_0.28m/0.gft>.
The lens minimum focusing distance is measured from the <-e-> (focal plane) mark on the camera to the subject, tf you are too close to the subject, the focus confirmation light <0 > will blink.
Under low light, the built-in flash will fire. If you are too close to the subject and the bottom of the picture looks dark (due to the lens barrel obstructing the flash), move away from the subject.
® With a zoom lens, use the telephoto
end.
If you have a zoom lens, using the telephoto end will make the subject look larger.
45
Shooting Moving Subjects
To photograph a moving subject whether it be a child running or an auto race, use the <_.
> (Sports) mode.
_
Shooting Tips
® Use a telephoto
lens.
Using a telephoto lens is recommended so you can shoot from afar.
® Use the center AF point to focus.

Shooting Tips
® Use a wide-angle
lens and a tripod.
If you use a zoom lens, set it to the wide-angle end to obtain a wide night view. For night scenes, use a tripod to prevent camera shake.
® Keep the person within 5 meters/16.4
feet from the camera.
Under low light, the built-in flash will fire automatically to obtain a good exposure of the person. The effective distance of the built-in flash is 5 meters/16.4
feet from the camera.
÷ Shoot also with <1--1> (Full Auto).
Since camera shake is prone to occur with night shots, shooting also with <1--1> (Full Auto) is recommended.
If the self-timer is also used, the self-timer lamp will flash after the picture is taken.

Shooting Tips
® If the numeric display in the viewfinder blinks,
take care to prevent camera shake,
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. If you have a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end to reduce blur due to camera shake.
® Taking portraits without flash.
Under low light, the person must not move until the picture is taken.
If the person moves during the exposure, he or she might look blurred in the picture.

Tips
® Check the shutter speed in the viewfinder.
When you press the shutter button halfway, the bottom of the viewfinder will display the shutter speed from 30" to 4000 (30 - 1/
4000 sec.). The darker it is, the lower the number (slower shutter speed) will be. A slower shutter speed is more likely to result in camera shake.
As a general rule, if the shutter speed is slower (lower number) than the reciprocal of the lens focal length multiplied by 1.6 (For example, if the lens focal length is 55mm, 55 x 1.6 is 80 so the reciprocal of 1/
80) is the minimum shutter speed required to prevent camera shake.
If the shutter speed is slower than this, either increase the ISO speed (p.53) or use the flash (p.54).
® The program can be shifted. (Program

Af[er pressing the shutter button halfway, turn the <¢'A%> dial to change the shutter speed and aperture setting combination (program).
O_ in very i0w light or _ery bright light, the exposure setting will blink when you press the shutter button halfway, as shown in the figure. In low light, either increase the ISO speed (p.53) oruse flash (p.54). In bright light, decrease the Iso speed,
52
IS0: Changing the ISO Speed*
Set the ISO
speed (imaging sensor's sensitivity
to light) to suit the ambient light level.
For example, when you increase the ISO speed
(higher number) for low light, a faster shutter speed can be used and camera shake will be less prone to occur.
The effective range of the flash will also increase.

Tips
® If the subject is far away, increase the ISO speed.
A higher ISO speed increases the effective range or distance of the flash.
® In bright light, decrease the ISO speed.
If theexposuresettingin theviewfinderblinksin bnghtlight, decreasethe ISOspeed.
® Detach the lens hood and keep at least 1 meter/3.3 feet away
from the subject.
If the lens hood (optional) is attached or if you are too close to the subject, the bottom portion of the picture might turn out dark. For important shots, check the image on the LCD monitor to make sure the flash exposure looks good (not dark at the bottom).
® Shooting without the built-in flash.
Shooting under low light can cause blur due to camera shake. Hold the camera as still as possible or use a tripod.

J?
L, M, and S indicate the image size. L : Large, M : Medium, and S: Small, •
(Fine) and • (Normal) indicate the image quality based on the data compression rate. The • image has higher image quality. If • is selected, the image quality
will be slightly lower, but more images can be saved to the CF card.
® Which recording quality is recommended?
You have to take into consideration the capacity of the CF card, the size of the paper for printing the image, and the number of shots you plan to take. For example, if you use a 5!2MB
CF card to take 100 shots, select the highest image quality • L. Or if you use a 256MB CF card to shoot 80 shots and want to print on A3-size or larger paper, select • L. If it will be A4 size, select • M.

Tips
® To freeze the action or moving subject.
Use a fast shutter speed such as 1/500 sec. to 1/4000 sec.
® To blur a running child or animal giving the impression of fast
movement.
Use a medium shutter speed such as 1/60 sec. to 1/250 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.
® How to blur a flowing river or water fountain.
Use a slow shutter speed such as 1/5 sec. to 1/15 sec. Use a tripod to prevent camera shake.
® Set the shutter speed so that the aperture display does not
blink in the viewfinder.
If you press the shutter button halfway and change the shutter speed while the aperture is displayed, the aperture disptay wilI also change to maintain the same exposure (amount of light reaching the imaging sensor), tf you exceed the adjustable aperture range, the aperture display will blink to indicate that the standard exposure cannot be obtained.
If the exposure will be too dark, the lowest aperture value will blink. If this happens, turn the <_> dial to the left to set a slower shutter speed or increase the ISO speed.
If the exposure will be too bright, the highest aperture value will blink. If this happens, turn the <_> dial to the right to set a faster shutter speed or decrease the ISO speed.
Using the Built-in Flash
The flash exposure will be set automatically to match the aperture that was set automatically.
The flash sync speed can be set from 30 sec. to

Av : Changing the Depth of Field
_;_ Shooting
Tips
® When using a high aperture value, note that camera shake can
occur in low light scenes.
A higher aperture value 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 depends not only on the aperture, but also the lens and subject distance.
Since wide-angle lenses have a wide depth of field, you need not set a high aperture value 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 in the viewfinder,
If you press the shutter button halfway and change the aperture while the shutter speed is displayed, the shutter speed display will also change to maintain the same exposure (amount of light reaching the imaging sensor).
If you exceed the adjustable shutter speed range, the shutter speed display 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, tf this happens, turn the < _% > dial to the left to set a lower aperture value 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 <_%> dial to the right to set a higher aperture value or decrease the ISO speed.

Since the image will look very subdued with an sRGB personal computer environment and printers not compatible with Design rule for
Camera File System 2.0 (Exif 2.21), post-processing of the image with soF_vare will be required.
_ ® If the image is captured with the color space set to Adobe RGB, the file
name will start with ,.MG_" (first character is an underscore).
® The ICC profile is not appended.
The ICC profile is explained in the
Software Instruction Manual (PDF).

White
Balance Auto Bracketing
With just one shot, three images having a different color tone can be recorded simultaneously.
Based on the white balance mode's standard color temperature, the image will be bracketed with a blue/amber bias or magenta/green bias. This is called white balance bracketing.
White balance bracketing is possible up to +3 levels in single-level increments.

Preventing Camera Shake
To prevent camera shake, using a tripod is effective. When pressing the shutter button, do it carefully without shaking the camera.
Preventing camera shake while you press the shutter button on a tripod-mounted camera is explained below.
Using Remote Control to Shoot
Using Remote Switch RS-60E3 or Remote Controller RC-1/RC-5 (both optional) can prevent camera shake and enable remote shooting.
Remote Switch RS-60E3
Remote switch with a 60 cm/2.0 feet cord for pressing the shutter button halfway or fully. It connects to the camera's remote control terminal.
Remote Controller RC-IlRC-5
Remote controller to shoot wirelessly up to about
5 meters/16.4 feet from the camera. (p.153) The
RC-1 can trip the shutter immediately or after a 2sec. delay, and the RC-5 trips the shutter after a
2-sec. delay.
RC-1 RC-5

Preventing Camera Shake
Mirror
Lockup
Although remote control shooting can prevent camera shake, using mirror Iockup to prevent camera vibrations can also help when you use a super telephoto lens or shoot close ups. Mirror Iockup is enabled by accessing [_'T2 Custom Function (C.Fn)] and setting [Mirror Iockup]
(p. 105) to [1:Enable].
® Press the shutter button completely to
Iockup the reflex mirror.
® Then press the shutter button completely again to take the picture.
The reflex mirror will then go back down.
-_ Shooting Tips
® Do not point the camera toward the sun.
The sun's heat can scorch and damage the shutter curtains.
® With the self-timer, the picture can be taken after a 2-sec. delay.
When you press the shutter button completely, the mirror locks up, then the picture is taken 2 sec. later. For bulb exposures, hold down the shutter button until you want to end the exposure. If you let go of the shutter button during the 2-sec. self-timer countdown, there will be a shutterrelease sound. This is not the actual shutter release (no picture is taken).
® Remote control shooting
Since you do not touch the camera when the picture is taken, remote control shooting together with mirror Iockup can further prevent camera shake. With Remote Controller RC-5, pressing the transmit button locks up the mirror before the shot is taken 2 sec. later. With
RC-1, set it to 2-sec. delay, then shoot.
The mirror locks up, and after 30 seoonds, itwill go back down automatically. Pressing the shutter button completely again locks upthe mirror again.

® Clean the body cap before attaching it.
111
Appending Dust Delete Data*
Normally, the Self Cleaning Sensor Unit will eliminate most of the dust visible on captured images. However, in case visible dust still remains, you can append Dust Delete Data to the image to later erase the dust spots. The Dust Delete Data is used by the Digital Photo Professional program (provided) to erase the dust spots automatically.
Preparation
® Get a solid-white object (paper, etc.).
® Set the lens focal length to 50mm or longer.
® Set the lens focus mode switch to <MF> and set the focus to infinity
(=). If the lens has no distance scale, look at the front of the lens and turn the focusing ring clockwise all the way.

About the Dust Delete Data
After the Dust Delete Data is obtained, it is appended to all the JPEG or
RAW images captured thereafter. The data will also be appended to images taken in the Basic Zone modes. Before an important shoot, you should update the Dust Delete Data by obtaining it again.
Regarding the automatic dust erasure with the bundled software, see the Software Instruction Manual in the CD-ROM.
The Dust Delete Data appended to the image is so small that it hardly affects the image file size.

[Brightness] Display
This histogram is a graph showing thedistribution ofthe
image'sbrightness level. The horizontalaxisindicatesthe Brightimage brightness level (darker on the left and brighteron the right),
whilethe vertical axis indicates how many pixels existfor each brightness level.
The more pixels there are toward the left, the darker the image. Andthe more pixels there are toward the right, the brighter the image.
If there are too many pixels on the left, the shadow detail will be lost.And ifthere are too many pixelson the right,the highlight detail will be lost. The tones in-betweenwill be reproduced.
By checking the image's brightness histogram, you can see the exposure level bias and the overall tone reproductioncondition.
[RGB] Display
This histogram is a graph showing the distribution of the image's brightness level of each primary color (RGB or red, blue, and green). 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. And 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. And if there are too many pixels on the right, the color will be too saturated with no detail.
By checking the image's RGB histogram, you can see the color's saturation and gradation condition and white balance bias.
