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 dirt, take the camera to the nearest Canon Service Center. Do not touch the cameras 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.

The subject was too far away. The subject should be within 5 meters/16.4 feet from the camera.
When flash was used, the bottom part of the picture came out unnaturally dark.
The subject was too close to the camera, and a shadow was created by the lens. The subject should be at least 1 meter/3.3 feet away from the camera. If a hood (sold separately) has been attached to the lens, remove it before taking the flash picture.

1 Full Auto Techniques

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 <1> (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 <5>).
Shooting a Moving Subject
In the <1> (Full Auto) mode, if the subject moves (distance to camera changes) during or after you focus, AI 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.

2 Shooting Portraits

The <2> (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 <1> (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.

3 Shooting Landscapes

Use the <3> (Landscape) mode for wide scenery, night scenes, and to have everything in focus from near to far. The greens and blues also become more vivid and sharp than with <1> (Full Auto).

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. 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> (Full Auto). Since camera shake is prone to occur with night shots, shooting also with <1> (Full Auto) is recommended.
If the self-timer is also used, the self-timer lamp will flash after the picture is taken.

7 Disabling Flash

In places where flash photography is prohibited, use the <7> (Flash Off) mode. This mode is also effective for candlelight scenes when you want to obtain the candlelight effect.
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 viewfinders 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.
This chapter explains the digital image settings for the image-recording quality, ISO speed, Picture Style, white balance, and color space.
In the Basic Zone modes, only the image-recording quality (except RAW/sRAW, RAW/sRAW+JPEG) and the file numbering method can be set as explained in this chapter. The asterisk M on the right of the page title indicates that the respective feature is available only in Creative Zone modes (d, s, f, a, 8).
When the camera is ready to shoot, you can press the <B> button to see the image settings. (p.168)
3 Setting the Image-recording Quality
Set the image-recording quality to suit the intended image size for printing, etc. In the Basic Zone modes, only the following imagerecording quality settings can be set: 73, 83, 74, 84, 76, 86. They are all JPEG images. In the 1/D modes, the image will require processing with the software provided. (p.58)

Maximum Burst During Continuous Shooting
The maximum burst during continuous shooting indicated on the preceding page is the number of continuous shots that can be taken at one time based with a 1 GB CF card. The maximum burst depends on the image-recording quality, drive mode, subject, CF card brand, and other variables. It is displayed in the viewfinder on the bottom right. If the maximum burst is 99 or higher, 99 will be displayed.
The maximum burst is displayed even when a CF card is not in the camera. Make sure that a CF card is loaded before taking a picture. The maximum burst for <o> is displayed regardless of the drive mode setting. If the viewfinder displays 99 for the maximum burst, it means the maximum burst is 99 or higher. If 98 or lower is displayed, the maximum burst is 98 or lower. If you stop the continuous shooting, the maximum burst will increase. After all the captured images are written to the CF card, the maximum burst will be as listed on the preceding page.
i: Setting the ISO SpeedN
Set the ISO speed (image sensors 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.
ISO Speed in the Basic Zone Modes
The ISO speed is set automatically within ISO 100 - 800.
ISO Speed in the Creative Zone Modes
ISO 100 - 1600 can be set in 1/3-stop increments. Also, the Auto setting will change the ISO speed automatically to suit the ambient light level.
Press the <m> button. (9)
The current ISO speed will be displayed on the LCD panel. In the Basic Zone modes, Auto will be displayed on the LCD panel.

One-Shot AF for Still Subjects
Suited for still subjects. When you press the shutter button halfway, the camera will focus only once. When focus is achieved, the AF point which achieved focus will flash in red, and the focus confirmation light <o> in the viewfinder will also light. With evaluative metering, 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. In the Creative Zone modes, AF is also possible by pressing the <p> button.
If focus cannot be achieved, the focus confirmation light <o> in the viewfinder will blink. If this occurs, a picture cannot be taken even if the shutter button is pressed completely. Recompose the picture and try and focus again. Or see When Autofocus Fails (p.80). If the [1 Beep] menu is set to [Off], the beeper will not sound when focus is achieved.
AI Servo AF for Moving Subjects
This AF mode is for moving subjects when the focusing distance keeps changing. While you hold down the shutter button halfway, the subject will be focused continuously. The exposure is set at the moment the picture is taken. In the Creative Zone modes, AF is also possible by pressing the <p> button. When the AF point selection is automatic (p.78), 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 confirmation light <o> in the viewfinder will not light.
AI Focus AF for Automatic Switching of AF Mode
AI Focus AF switches the AF mode from One-Shot AF to AI Servo AF automatically if the still subject starts moving. After the subject is focused in the One-Shot AF mode, if the subject starts moving, the camera will detect the movement and change the AF mode automatically to AI Servo AF.

Live View ShootingN

Instead of looking through the viewfinder, you can look at a real-time image on the cameras LCD monitor while shooting. Live View shooting does not work in Basic Zone modes.

The Live View image will appear on the LCD monitor in real-time with approx. 100% field of view. With the video cable (provided) connecting the camera to a TV set, you can view images on the TV. (p.122)
During Live View image display, if you point the camera in a different direction, it might throw off the correct brightness momentarily and the image might not look right. Wait until the image stabilizes at the correct brightness before shooting. If you shoot while the image brightness is not yet stable, the resulting image might be overexposed or underexposed. If the light source within the image changes, the screen might flicker. If this happens, press <0> to end the shooting, then with the new light source in place, press <0> again to resume shooting.
Setting the Shooting Functions
In the same way as during normal shooting through the viewfinder, you can set the shooting functions (drive mode, ISO speed, Picture Style, white balance, exposure compensation, AE lock, flash exposure compensation, etc.). If you change the shooting mode during Live View image display, the Live View image display will quit.

Once an image is protected, it cannot be erased by the cameras erase function. To erase a protected image, you must first cancel the protection. If you erase all the images (p.124), only the protected images will remain. This is convenient when you want to erase unnecessary images all at once.

L Erasing Images

You can either select and erase images one by one or erase them in one batch. Protected images (p.123) will not be erased. Once an image is erased, it cannot be recovered. Make sure you no longer need the image before erasing it. To prevent important images from being erased accidentally, protect them.

Immediately after image capture, the vertical image will not be automatically rotated for the image review. If the vertical image is taken while the camera is pointed up or down, the image might not rotate automatically for playback. If the vertical image is not automatically rotated on the personal computer screen, it means the software you are using is unable to rotate the image. Using the provided software is recommended.
The camera has a Self Cleaning Sensor Unit attached to the sensors front layer (low-pass filter) to shake off dust automatically. The Dust Delete Data can also be appended to the image so that the remaining dust spots can be removed automatically by Digital Photo Professional (provided software).
Minimizing Dust When changing lenses, do it 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. Even while the Self Cleaning Sensor Unit is operating, you can press the shutter button halfway to interrupt the cleaning and start shooting immediately.
3 Automatic Sensor Cleaning
Whenever you set the power switch to <1/J> or <2>, the Self Cleaning Sensor Unit operates (approx. 1 sec.) to automatically shake off the dust on the front of the sensor.

AF Sensor Configuration

Focusing sensors for extreme defocus High-precision diagonal cross-type center sensor
Some of the most advanced features from Canons professional cameras are incorporated into the EOS 40Ds design. Each of its nine AF points is now a full cross-type sensor, when lenses f/5.6 or faster are used. Its better than ever at grabbing focus on tough subjects without much detail. Sensitivity is a stunning EV-0.5 to EV18. The center AF point holds a worlds first: two diagonal, high-precision line sensors, in addition to the standard crosstype sensors. Theyre active with any lens f/2.8 or faster, giving more accuracy and precise AF. The camera has a number of focus modes, including One-Shot AF, AI Focus AF, AI Servo AF and manual. Focus now can be engaged with the EOS 40Ds new AF Start button, and all focus points can
All the choices the advanced photographer could want. 35-zone Evaluative metering is ideal for quick shooting with auto exposure. The EOS 40D also has a spot meter, which analyzes 3.8% of the composition, perfect for ultra-precise metering. Center-weighted average metering measures the entire composition, yet places emphasis on the center of the image. With partial metering, 9% of the image is metered. With these versatile metering options, its always easy to get the right exposure.
Custom Film Characteristics, Easily

image parallel to the focal plane. The effects can be seen immediately in the cameras viewfinder. The subject remains in sharp focus, camera shake is minimized or disappears completely, and sharp pictures are the result. Unlike other camera companies who have chosen to incorporate image stabilization into the camera body, Canon builds this technology directly into Image Stabilization lenses so the system is custom tailored to the optics and focal length of the particular lens. This optimization renders a far more effective Image Stabilization system across the board.

greater photorealism. Dynamic-range-related problems, such as posterization and banding, are virtually eliminated.
Photographers seeking to produce their own gallery-grade inkjet prints have had limited choices until now. Understanding the demands of professional photographersespecially those who shoot with the EOS SystemCanon has responded with the imagePROGRAF series Photo Printers featuring impressive new technologies that bring unprecedented quality and performance to large format photo printing. Its never been simpler or more cost-effective to produce gallery-grade prints at home or in the studio.
Photo-Lithographic UserReplaceable Dual Print Heads
An advanced head design uses two print headseach with 15,360 nozzlesyielding over 30,000 nozzles. This not only makes possible extremely high output resolution but also ensures faster, more reliable printing. Photographers no longer need to choose between print speed and image quality. The large number of nozzles also substantially increase print head life so that the printer requires less frequent maintenance. And because the print heads are user-replaceable, maintenance can be performed with minimal downtime and no costly service calls.
Automated Black Ink Cartridge Switching
The ink set includes Black and Matte Black, only one of which will be used depending on output media selection. While other printers require the user to perform an inconvenient and wasteful manual operation to flush unused ink and switch cartridges, the imagePROGRAF printers automate the process. With both Black ink cartridges loaded and live at all times, the switchover is fast and wasteless, performed with a simple push of a button.
FINE Print Head Technology
Canons high-precision FINE (Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering) print heads each have thousands of nozzles designed to release microscopic ink droplets as small as 1 picoliter in a single pass, resulting in fast, high resolution printing. Capable of plotting thousands of ink droplets each second, the high-density nozzle pitch produces sharper detail and less grain.
