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.

LCD Panel and 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.

Lens Electrical Contacts

After detaching the lens from the camera, attach the lens caps or put down the lens with the rear end up to avoid scratching the lens surface and electrical contacts. Contacts
Cautions for Prolonged Use
When you shoot continuously for a prolonged period or use Live View shooting for a long period, the camera may become hot. Although this is not a malfunction, holding the hot camera for a long period can cause slight skin burns.

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.

viewfinder, turn the <6> dial. With Auto, the ISO speed will be set automatically.
Using a high ISO speed or shooting in high-temperature conditions may result in more grainy images. High temperatures, high ISO speeds, or long exposures may cause irregular colors in the image. With [8C.Fn I -3] (ISO expansion) set to [1: On] (p.154), H (ISO 3200) can also be set.

About Auto ISO Speed

If the ISO speed is set to Auto, the actual ISO speed to be set will be displayed when you press the shutter button halfway. As indicated below, the ISO speed will be set automatically to suit the shooting mode.
Shooting Mode 1, 3, 4, 6, 2 d f 8 ISO Speed Setting The ISO speed is set automatically within ISO 100 - 800. The ISO speed set automatically will vary depending on the shooting mode. The picture will be taken at the standard exposure. The ISO speed is set automatically within ISO 400 - 800. Fixed at ISO 100. The ISO speed will be set automatically within ISO 400 - 800 so that a shutter speed preventing camera shake will be set. If overexposure would result at ISO 400, a lower ISO speed, as low as ISO 100, will be set. Normally, ISO 400 is set. Even for very bright or dark subjects, the ISO speed will be set automatically within ISO 100 - 800 to obtain a standard exposure. Fixed at ISO 400. Set to ISO 400 in all shooting modes including <2>. If overexposure would result in bright light outdoors, a lower ISO speed, as low as ISO 100, will be set.

About White Balance

To the human eye, a white object looks white regardless of the type of lighting. With a digital camera, the color temperature is adjusted with software to make the white areas look white. This adjustment serves as the basis for the color correction. The result is natural-looking colors in the pictures.
You can also use the [2 White balance] menu to set the white balance.

O Custom White Balance

Custom white balance enables you to manually set the white balance for a specific light source for better accuracy.

When Autofocus Fails

Autofocus can fail to achieve focus (the focus confirmation light <o> blinks) with certain subjects such as the following:
Subjects difficult to focus
Low-contrast subjects Example: Blue sky, solid-color walls, etc. Subjects in low light Extremely backlit and reflective subjects Example: Car with a reflective body, etc. Overlapping near and far objects Example: Animal in a cage, etc. Repetitive patterns Example: Skyscraper windows, computer keyboards, etc. In such cases, do one of the following: (1) Focus an object at the same distance as the subject and lock the focus before recomposing. (p.48) (2) Set the lens focus mode switch to <MF> and focus manually.

Manual Focusing

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.
More Choices for Photo Composition
The first in its class to offer interchangeable focusing screens, the EOS 40D can accept focusing screen Ef-D, which adds grid lines as well as focusing screen Ef-S that has a superprecision matte surface perfect for critical focus when using fast lenses (f/1.8 to f/2.8).
Shanghai was one which I saw as I looked up towards the sky in the center of my hotel. I loved the feeling of vertigo and the suggestion of infinity. I laid down on the floor and discovered the more extreme angle which made the photograph more exciting. I love exploring and reaching for the maximum possibility using my Canon.
Canons Superlative EF & EF-S Lenses
Like other EOS Digital SLR cameras, the EOS 40D is compatible with all Canon lenses in the EF lineup, ranging from ultra-wide angle to super telephoto lenses, and including Canons EF-S series lenses, manufactured specifically for APS-C sized digital sensors. Canon lenses employ advanced optical expertise and micron-precision engineering to deliver unprecedented performance in all facets of the photographic process. Aspherical, Ultra-low Dispersion, or Fluorite elements for example, are featured in the universally acclaimed L Series lenses, and Canons Optical Image Stabilizer technology in select lenses minimizes the effect of camera shake. The EOS 40D deserves nothing less than Canon Optics.

Advanced Printing Without a Computer
The EOS 40D offers an unprecedented level of in-camera control over image optimization with its Advanced Camera Direct capabilities. You can adjust images, using the Face Brightener and Red-eye Correction functions. With control over contrast, saturation, color tone and color balance levels, high image quality is attainable without post-production software. Also, you can crop a vertical image to create a horizontal image (or vice versa), or by simply zooming in on a detail, an image can be cropped with the incamera trimming tool. When connected to the EOS 40D, PIXMA Pro printers can generate 35-frame contact sheets and single image or 20-image prints with shooting information and will allow Advanced Camera Direct settings to override its default settings, so even the finest image adjustments made on the EOS 40D are accurately translated onto prints.

Fast, Raw Processing

The EOS 40D comes with Canons Digital Photo Professional (DPP) Ver.3.1 software, which is designed to view, process, edit, and save RAW images. It offers high-speed RAW image display and processing using Canon designed algorithms, which are both powerful and optimized specifically for Canons CR2 RAW files. Digital Photo Professional offers displays that are customizable to the your chosen workflow style, and offers an extensive range of image editing functions, including brightness, contrast, white balance, exposure, dynamic range, and more. Its the software equivalent of a state-ofthe-art darkroom, and it comes bundled with the EOS 40D.
Advanced Camera Direct Capabilities
Single-image Print with Shooting Information
35-image Contact Sheet Canon Photo Printers and EOS Digital SLR cameras take PictBridge direct printing to the next level, providing an unprecedented amount of control over image optimization and output options. When you connect the EOS 40D with a compatible Canon photo printer, such as PIXMA Pro printers, you can, for example, choose automatic image adjustment using EXIF information or make adjustments manually to create more vivid prints.

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.
Canons 17-inch, wide-format imagePROGRAF iPF5100 features the exclusive LUCIA 12-color pigment ink set that yields a tremendous range of colors and grays. For smooth, detailed color and black and white images, no matter the media. Canons FINE photo-lithographic heads ensure accurate plotting of even the finest details thanks to over 30,000 nozzles. Matte Black ink and Black ink cartridges are both loaded in the printer at the same time, enabling automatic switching without wasting time or ink.
