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.

Safety Precautions

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 for people with circulation problems or very sensitive skin, or when

using the camera in very hot places.



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

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

short-circuit. 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. 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.

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.

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 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.

The camera contains precision electronic circuitry. Never attempt to

disassemble the camera yourself.

Do not block the built-in flash or 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 may 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.

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 use continuous shooting, 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, there may be a few dead pixels

displaying only black or red, etc. among the remaining 0.01% or less pixels.

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 slow in low temperatures, or look black

in high temperatures. It will return to normal at room temperature.

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, etc.

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

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.

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 visible spots remain on the

image, having the sensor cleaned by a Canon Service

Center is recommended.

MEMO

Getting Started

This chapter explains preparatory steps before you start

shooting and basic camera operations.

Attaching the Strap

Pass the end of the strap through

the camera’s strap mount eyelet

from the bottom. Then pass it

through the strap’s buckle as shown

in the illustration. Pull the strap to

take up any slack and make sure

the strap will not loosen from the

buckle.

The eyepiece cover is attached to

the strap (p.271).

Eyepiece cover

1Remove the protective cover.

Detach the protective cover provided

with the battery.

2Attach the battery.

As shown in the illustration, attach the

battery securely to the charger.

To detach the battery, follow the

above procedure in reverse.

3Recharge the battery.

For LC-E10

As shown by the arrow, flip out the

battery charger’s prongs and insert

the prongs into a power outlet.

For LC-E10E

Connect the power cord to the

charger and insert the plug into a

power outlet.

Recharging starts and the charge

lamp lights up in orange.

When the battery is fully recharged,

the full-charge lamp will light up in

green.

It takes approx. 2 hours to fully recharge a completely

exhausted battery at room temperature (23°C / 73°F). The time

required to recharge the battery will vary greatly depending on

the ambient temperature and the battery’s remaining capacity.

For safety reasons, recharging in low temperatures (6°C - 10°C /

43°F - 50°F) will take longer (up to approx. 4 hours).

Charging the Battery

Charging the Battery

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 is 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’s 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 can

damage the battery charger.

If the battery becomes exhausted quickly even after being fully

charged, the battery has reached the end of its service life.

Purchase a new battery.

Tips for Using the Battery and Charger

After disconnecting the charger’s power plug, do not touch the prongs for

at least 3 sec.

Do not charge any battery other than a Battery Pack LP-E10.

Battery Pack LP-E10 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.

Load a fully charged Battery Pack LP-E10 into the camera. You can use

an SD, SDHC, or SDXC memory card (sold separately) with the

camera. The captured images are recorded onto the card.

Make sure the card’s write-protect switch is set upward to

enable writing and erasing.

1Open the cover.

Slide the lever as shown by the

arrows and open the cover.

2Insert the battery.

Insert the end with the electrical

contacts.

Insert the battery until it locks in

place.

eject it.

Pull the card straight out.

5Close the cover.

Press the cover until it snaps shut.

Removing the Battery and Card

After opening the card slot/battery compartment cover, be careful not to

forcefully swing it back further. Otherwise, the hinge may break.

The number of possible shots depends on the remaining capacity of the

card, image-recording quality, ISO speed, etc.

Setting [z1: Release shutter without card] to [Disable] will prevent

you from shooting without a card inserted (p.184).

Installing and Removing the Battery and Card

When the access lamp is lit or blinking, it indicates that images are

being written to, read from, or erased from the card, or data is being

transferred. Do not open the card slot/battery compartment cover.

Also, never do any of the following while the access lamp is lit or

blinking. Otherwise, it can damage the image data, card, or camera.

• Removing the card.

• Removing the battery.

• Shaking or banging the camera around.

• Unplugging and connecting a power cord (when household power

outlet accessories (sold separately, p.270) are used).

If the card already contains recorded images, the image number may not

start from 0001 (p.188).

If a card-related error message is displayed on the LCD monitor, remove

and reinsert the card. If the error persists, use a different card.

If you can transfer all the images on the card to a computer, transfer all

the images and then format the card with the camera (p.52). The card

may then return to normal.

Do not touch the card’s contacts with your fingers or metal objects. Do

not expose the contacts to dust or water. If a smudge adheres to the

contacts, contact failure may result.

Multimedia cards (MMC) cannot be used (card error will be displayed).

If you turn on the power and the date/time/zone setting screen

appears, see page 41 to set the date/time/zone.

<1> : The camera turns on.

Basic Shooting and

Image Playback

This chapter explains how to use the Basic Zone modes

on the Mode Dial for best results and how to play back

images.

With Basic Zone modes, all you do is point and shoot while the

camera sets everything automatically (p.75, 276). Also, to

prevent botched pictures due to mistaken operations,

advanced shooting function settings cannot be changed.

Auto Lighting Optimizer

In Basic Zone modes, the Auto Lighting Optimizer (p.123) will

adjust the image automatically to obtain the optimum brightness

and contrast. It is also enabled by default in Creative Zone modes.

<A> is a fully automatic mode. The camera analyzes the scene

and sets the optimum settings automatically. It also adjusts focus

automatically by detecting whether the subject is still or moving (p.61).

1Set the Mode Dial to <A>.

2Aim any AF point over the

subject.

All the AF points will be used to focus,

and the camera will focus on the

closest object.

Aiming the center AF point over the

subject will make focusing easier.

3Focus on the subject.

Press the shutter button halfway. The

lens focusing ring will rotate to focus.

The dot inside the AF point achieving

focus flashes briefly in red. At the

same time, the beeper will sound and

the focus indicator <o> in the

The <A> mode makes the colors look more impressive in nature, outdoor,

and sunset scenes. If you did not obtain the desired color tones, change the

mode to a Creative Zone mode and select a Picture Style other than

<D>, then shoot again (p.95).

A Fully Automatic Shooting (Scene Intelligent Auto)

The flash fired even though 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 Flash off

mode (p.63). Other than the flash setting, the camera will shoot with

the same settings as with <A>.

The flash fired and the picture came out extremely bright.

Move further away from the subject and shoot. When shooting flash

photography, 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 AF-

assist beam. Its effective range is approx. 4 meters / 13.1 feet.

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.

A Live View Shooting

The camera analyzes the scene and sets the optimum settings

automatically. In places where flash photography is prohibited such as

in a museum or an aquarium, use the <7> (Flash Off) mode. This

mode is also effective for capturing the particular ambience of a scene,

such as candlelight scenes.

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 a wide angle to reduce

blur caused by camera shake even with handheld shooting.

When shooting 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.

subject stand out. It also makes skin tones and hair look softer.

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 if 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.

2 Shooting Portraits

Shooting Tips

If you hold down the shutter button, you can shoot continuously (max.

approx. 3 shots/sec.) to capture changes in the subject’s facial

expression and pose.

If necessary, the built-in flash will fire automatically.

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.

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

When using the wide-angle end of a zoom lens, objects near and far

will be in focus better than at the telephoto end. It also adds breadth

to landscapes.

When shooting night scenes.

Since the built-in flash will be disabled, this

mode <3> is also good for night scenes.

Use a tripod to prevent camera shake.

If you want to shoot a person against a

night scene, set the Mode Dial to <6>

(Night Portrait) and use a tripod (p.72).

3 Shooting Landscapes

Shooting Tips

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.

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).

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 <MACRO 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, the focus indicator <o> will blink.

If you use flash and the bottom part of the picture comes out

unnaturally dark, move away from the subject and try again.

With a zoom lens, use the telephoto end.

If you have a zoom lens, using the telephoto end will make the

subject look larger.

4 Shooting Close-ups

Shooting Tips

If necessary, the built-in flash will fire automatically.

Use the <5> (Sports) mode to shoot a moving subject, such as a

running person or a moving vehicle.

Use a telephoto lens.

The 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.

When you want to take the picture, press the shutter button

completely. If you hold down the shutter button, you can shoot

continuously (max. approx. 3 shots/sec.) while maintaining

autofocusing to capture changes in the subject’s movement.

5 Shooting Moving Subjects

Shooting Tips

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

Under low light when 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.

When shooting food, use (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.

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. By default, (Built-in flash off) is set. Try

to prevent camera shake when shooting in low-light conditions.

P Shooting Food

Shooting Tips

Since this mode lets you shoot the food in appetizing color tones, human

subjects may be shot in 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 lessened.

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

setting.

To shoot people at night and obtain a natural-looking night scene in the

background, use the <6> (Night Portrait) mode. Using a tripod is

recommended.

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, use a tripod to prevent camera shake.

Check the subject’s brightness.

Under low light, the built-in flash will fire automatically to obtain a

good exposure of the subject.

It is recommended to play back the image after shooting to check

the image brightness. If the subject looks dark, move nearer and

shoot again.

Also shoot with the <A> (Scene Intelligent Auto) mode.

Since camera shake is prone to occur with night shots, shooting also

in the <A> mode is recommended.

Creative Shooting

In the Basic Zone modes, to prevent spoiled shots,

most advanced functions are set automatically and

cannot be changed. In the <d> (Program AE) mode,

you can set various functions and be more creative.

In the <d> mode, the camera sets the shutter speed and

aperture automatically to obtain the standard exposure.

The difference between the Basic Zone modes and <d> is

explained on pages 276-277.

The functions explained in this chapter can also be used in

the <s>, <f>, and <a> modes explained in Chapter

The M icon at the upper right of the page title indicates that

the function is available only in Creative Zone modes

(p.30).

The camera automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture to suit

the subject’s brightness. This is called Program AE.

*<d> stands for Program.

*AE stands for Auto Exposure.

1Set the Mode Dial to <d>.

2Focus on the subject.

Look through the viewfinder and aim

the selected AF point over the

subject. Then press the shutter button

halfway.

The dot inside the AF point achieving

focus lights up briefly in red, and the

focus indicator <o> on the

viewfinder’s bottom right lights up (in

One-Shot AF mode).

The shutter speed and aperture will

be set automatically and displayed in

the viewfinder.

3Check the display.

The standard exposure will be

obtained as long as the shutter speed

and aperture display do not blink.

4Take the picture.

Compose the shot and press the

shutter button completely.

d: Program AE

Change the ISO speed. Use the built-in flash.

To match the subject and ambient lighting level, you can change the

ISO speed (p.92) or use the built-in flash (p.104). In the <d> mode,

the built-in flash will not fire automatically. When indoors or during

low light shooting, it is recommended that you press the (flash)

button to raise the built-in flash. (You can also raise the built-in flash

by selecting <s> with the Quick Control.)

Change the program using Program shift.

After pressing the shutter button halfway, turn the <6> dial to

change the shutter speed and aperture setting combination

(program). Program shift is canceled automatically after the picture

is taken. Program shift is not possible with flash.

Shooting Tips

If the “30"” shutter speed and the lowest f/number

blink, it indicates underexposure. Increase the ISO

speed or use flash.

If the “4000” shutter speed and the highest f/number

blink, it indicates overexposure. Decrease the ISO

speed.

Differences Between <d> and <A>

In the <A> mode, many functions, such as the AF operation and metering

mode, are set automatically to prevent spoiled shots. The functions you can

set are limited. With <d> mode, only the shutter speed and aperture are set

automatically. You can freely set the AF operation, metering mode, and

other functions (p.276).

3 Setting the Image-Recording Quality

* The file size, possible shots, and maximum burst during continuous shooting are

based on Canon’s testing standards (3:2 aspect ratio, ISO 100 and Standard

3 Setting the Image-Recording Quality

I want to select the image-recording quality matching the paper

size for printing.

Refer to the diagram on the left when

choosing the image-recording quality. If

you want to crop the image, selecting a

higher quality (more pixels) such as 73,

83, 1+73, or 1 is recommended.

b is suitable for playing back the image

with a digital photo frame. c is suitable

for emailing the image or using it on a

Web site.

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. Both b and c have 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. 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?

1 images must be processed on a computer. For details, see

“1” and “1+73” on the next page.

ISO 1600 - ISO 6400, H Dark indoors or night

Under [53: Custom Functions (C.Fn)], if [2: ISO expansion] is set to

[1: On], “H” (equivalent to ISO 12800) can also be selected (p.260).

Under [53: Custom Functions (C.Fn)], if [10: Flash button function]

is set to [1: ISO speed], you can set the ISO speed with the <D> button.

Under [53: Custom Functions (C.Fn)], if [6: Highlight tone priority] is

set to [1: Enable], ISO 100 and “H” (equivalent to ISO 12800) cannot be

selected (p.263).

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

Long exposures can also cause irregular colors in the image.

i: Changing the ISO Speed to Suit the Light LevelN

If the ISO speed is set to [AUTO], the

actual ISO speed setting will be

displayed when you press the shutter

button halfway. As indicated on the next

page, the ISO speed will be set

automatically to suit the shooting mode.

ISO [AUTO]

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.

As “H” (equivalent to ISO 12800) is an expanded ISO speed setting,

noise (such as dots of light and banding) and irregular colors will be more

noticeable, and the resolution will be lower than usual.

i: Changing the ISO Speed to Suit the Light LevelN

*1: Depends on the maximum ISO speed limit set.

*2: If fill-in flash will cause overexposure, ISO speed may be reduced, down to a

possible minimum of ISO 100.

*3: If bounce flash is used with an external Speedlite in a Basic Zone (except

<6>) mode or <d>, ISO 800 - ISO 1600 (or up to the maximum limit) will be

set automatically.

*4: Fixed at ISO 400 in mode. If bounce flash is used with an external

Speedlite in mode, ISO 400 - ISO 1600 will be set automatically.

*5: Fixed at ISO 400 if the maximum limit is ISO 400.

For ISO Auto, you can set the maximum ISO speed limit within ISO 400 -

ISO 6400.

Under the [z3] tab, select [ISO Auto],

then press <0>. Select the ISO speed,

then press <0>.

Shooting Mode ISO Speed Setting

A/7/C/3/4/5/P/6Automatically set within ISO 100 - ISO 3200

d/s/f/aAutomatically set within ISO 100 - ISO 6400*1

2ISO 100

With flash ISO 800*2*3*4*5

With bulb exposures ISO 800*5

3 Setting the Maximum ISO Speed for [AUTO]N

When [AUTO] is set, the ISO speed is indicated in whole-stop

increments. However, the ISO speed is actually set in finer increments.

Therefore, in the image’s shooting information (p.232), you may find an

ISO speed such as ISO 125 or ISO 640 displayed as the ISO speed.

In the <2> mode, an ISO speed other than ISO 100 may be displayed,

but the actual ISO speed used is the one shown in the table above.

By selecting a Picture Style, you can obtain image characteristics

matching your photographic expression or the subject.

In Basic Zone modes, you cannot select the Picture Style.

camera will then autofocus in the

selected AF operation.

Suited for still subjects. When you press the shutter button

halfway, the camera will focus only once.

When focus is achieved, the dot inside the AF point achieving focus

lights up briefly in red, and the focus indicator <o> appears in the

viewfinder.

With evaluative metering (p.115), the exposure setting will be set at

the same time focus is achieved.

While you hold down the shutter button halfway, the focus will be

locked. You can then recompose the shot if desired.

f: Changing the Autofocus OperationN

One-Shot AF for Still Subjects

f: Changing the Autofocus OperationN

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.99) 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.

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 focused 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.

AI Servo AF for Moving Subjects

AI Focus AF for Switching the AF Operation Automatically

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 and try to focus

again, or see “Subjects Difficult to Focus on” (p.101).

If [z1: Beep] is set to [Disable], the beeper will not sound when focus

is achieved.

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.

When focus is achieved in the AI Focus AF operation with the Servo mode

active, the beeper will sound softly. However, the focus indicator <o> in the

viewfinder will not light up. Note that focus will not be locked in this case.

In Basic Zone modes, the camera will normally focus on the closest

subject automatically. Therefore, it may not always focus on your target

subject.

In the <d>, <s>, <f>, and <a> modes, you can select one AF

point and focus only on the area covered by that AF point.

1Press the <S> button (9).

The selected AF point will be

displayed on the LCD monitor and in

the viewfinder.

2Select the AF point.

Use the <S> cross keys to select

the AF point.

While looking through the viewfinder,

you can select the AF point by turning

the <6> dial until the desired AF

point lights up in red.

When all the AF points light up,

automatic AF point selection will be

set. The AF point will be selected

automatically to focus on the subject.

Pressing <0> toggles the AF point

selection between the center AF point

and automatic AF point selection.

3Focus on the subject.

Aim the selected AF point over the

subject and press the shutter button

halfway to focus.

S Selecting the AF PointN

When shooting a portrait up close, use One-Shot AF and focus

on the eyes.

If you focus on the eyes first, you can then recompose and the face

will remain sharp.

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

The center AF point is the most sensitive among the nine AF points.

To make it easier to focus on a moving subject, set the camera

to automatic AF point selection and AI Servo AF (p.98).

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.

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.

Shooting Tips

AF-Assist Beam with the Built-in Flash

AF-assist beam will not be emitted from the built-in flash in <7>, <3>,

or <5> mode, or when [Built-in flash firing] is set to in <C> or

mode.

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

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

button (p.104), the AF-assist beam will be emitted when necessary. Note

that depending on the setting for [7: AF-assist beam firing] under [53:

Custom Functions (C.Fn)], AF-assist beam will not be emitted (p.264).

If you use an Extender (sold separately) and the maximum aperture

becomes higher than f/5.6, AF shooting will not be possible (except in

[FlexiZone - Single] and [u Live mode] during Live View shooting). For

details, refer to the Extender’s instruction manual.

101

Autofocus can fail to achieve focus (viewfinder’s focus indicator <o>

blinks) with certain 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 and reflective subjects

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

Near and distant subjects framed close to an AF point

(Example: Animals in cages, etc.)

Subjects such as dots of light framed close to an AF point

(Example: Night scenes, etc.)

Repetitive patterns

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

In such cases, focus by doing either of the following:

(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.61).

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

1Set the lens’s focus mode switch

to <MF>.

2Focus on the subject.

Focus by turning the lens’s focusing

ring until the subject looks sharp in

the viewfinder.

Subjects Difficult to Focus on

MF: Manual Focus

Depending on the subject, focus may be achieved by slightly

recomposing the shot and performing AF operation again.

For subjects difficult to focus on during Live View shooting with

[FlexiZone - Single] and [u Live mode], see page 152.

Focusing ring

If you press the shutter button halfway during manual focusing, the AF point

achieving focus will light up briefly in red, the beeper will sound, and the

focus indicator <o> in the viewfinder will light up.

3Take the picture.

The camera shoots continuously

while you hold down the shutter

button completely.

Also set the AF operation (p.97) matching the subject.

• For a moving subject

When AI Servo AF is set, focusing will be continuous during

continuous shooting.

• For a still subject

When One-Shot AF is set, the camera will focus only once during

continuous shooting.

i Continuous ShootingN

Shooting Tips

Under [53: Custom Functions (C.Fn)], if [5: High ISO speed noise

reduct’n] is set to [2: Strong] (p.263), the maximum burst during

continuous shooting will greatly decrease. Also, the continuous shooting

speed may be slower.

The continuous shooting speed may become slower if the remaining

battery level is low or if you shoot under low-light conditions.

In AI Servo AF operation, the continuous shooting speed may become

slightly slower depending on the subject and the lens used.
