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 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. 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, 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 it. 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.

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> Sports).
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 at 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 farther 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. (max. approx. 3.4 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, or to have everything in focus from near to far. The greens and blues also become more vivid and sharper than with <1> (Full Auto).

In very low light or very bright light, the shutter speed and aperture display will blink when you press the shutter button halfway, as shown in the figure. In low light (30 3.5), either increase the ISO speed (p.60) or use flash (p.62). In bright light (4000 22), decrease the ISO speed.
Differences Between <d> and <1> (Full Auto)
With <1>, many functions such the AF mode, drive mode, and metering mode are set automatically to prevent spoiled shots. The functions you can set are limited. With <d>, only the shutter speed and aperture are set automatically. You can freely set the AF mode, drive mode, and other functions (p.198).
Z: Changing the ISO SpeedN
Set the ISO speed (image sensors sensitivity to light) to suit the ambient light level. In the Basic Zone modes, the ISO speed is set automatically (p.61).
Press the <Z> button. (9)

[ISO speed] will appear.

ISO 2 Select the <6>speed. press the Turn the dial or
<U> key to select the ISO speed. You can also set the ISO speed in the viewfinder while turning the <6> dial. With AUTO selected, the ISO speed will be set automatically (p.61). ISO Speed Guide
ISO Speed 100 - - - 6400, H Shooting Situation (No flash) Sunny outdoors Overcast skies, evening Dark indoors or night Flash Range The higher the ISO speed, the farther the flash range will be (p.62).
Under the [7 Custom Functions (C.Fn)] menu, if [Highlight tone priority] is set to [1: Enable], the settable ISO speed range will be ISO 200 - 3200 (p.186). Using a high ISO speed or shooting in high-temperature conditions may result in more grainy images. Long exposures can also cause irregular colors in the image. When you shoot at high ISO speeds, noise (horizontal banding, light dots, etc.) may appear. Under the [7 Custom Functions (C.Fn)] menu, if [ISO expansion] is set to [1: On], ISO 6400 and H (ISO 12800) can also be set (p.184).
About AUTO for Automatic 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 1/3/4/5/6/7/C/ d/s/f/a With flash ISO Speed Setting Automatically set within ISO 100 - 1600 Fixed at ISO 100 Fixed at ISO 400 Fixed at ISO 400*
* If fill flash results in overexposure, ISO 100 or a higher ISO will be set. * If an external Speedlite is used for bounce flash, ISO 400 - 1600 will be set automatically.
When AUTO is set, the ISO speed will be displayed in whole-stop increments of 100, 200, 400, 800, or 1600. However, the actual ISO speed may be set more precisely. Therefore, in the images shooting information, you may find an ISO speed like 125 or 640 displayed as the ISO speed.

E: Changing the AF ModeN

Select the AF mode suiting the shooting conditions or subject. In the Basic Zone modes, the optimum AF mode is set automatically.
On the lens, set the focus mode switch to <AF>.

mode, then press <0>.

Focus the subject.

Aim the AF point over the subject and press the shutter button halfway. The camera will then autofocus in the selected AF mode.
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 dot inside the AF point achieving focus flashes briefly in red, and the focus confirmation light <o> in the viewfinder will also light. With evaluative metering (p.83), 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.
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 to focus again. Or see When Autofocus Fails (p.192). 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. When the AF point selection (p.66) is automatic, the camera first uses the center AF point to focus. During autofocusing, if the subject moves away from the center AF point, focus tracking continues as long as the subject is covered by another AF point.
With AI Servo AF, the beeper will not sound even when focus is achieved. Also, the focus 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.
When focus is achieved in the AI Focus AF mode with the Servo mode active, the beeper will sound softly. However, the focus confirmation light <o> in the viewfinder will not light.
S Selecting the AF PointN
In the Basic Zone modes, all the AF points are active. Generally, the AF point covering the closest subject will be selected to focus. Therefore, the camera sometimes may not focus the subject you want. With the <d> (Program AE), <s>, <f>, and <a> modes, you can select one AF point to focus where you want.

3 Auto Exposure BracketingN
This feature takes exposure compensation a step further by varying the exposure automatically with three shots as shown below. You can then choose the best exposure. This is called AEB (Auto Exposure Bracketing).

Canceling AEB

Follow steps 1 and 2 to turn off the AEB amount display. The AEB setting will be canceled automatically if the power switch is set to <2>, flash recycling is complete, etc.
Using AEB with continuous shooting. If <i> continuous shooting (p.68) has been set and you press the shutter button completely, the three bracketed shots will be taken continuously in this sequence: Standard, decreased exposure, and increased exposure. Using AEB with <u> single shooting. Press the shutter button three times to take the three bracketed shots. The three bracketed shots will be exposed in the following sequence: Standard, decreased exposure, and increased exposure. Using AEB with exposure compensation. Centering on the exposure compensation amount, AEB will be applied. Using AEB with the self-timer or wireless remote control. With the self-timer or wireless remote control (<Q> or <l>), you can take three continuous shots. With <q> set, the number of continuous shots will be three times the number set (p.55).
Neither flash nor bulb exposures can be used with AEB. If the [7 Custom Functions (C.Fn)] menus [Auto Lighting Optimizer] (p.186) is set to other than [3: Disable], the AEB may not be so effective.

Select [Color space].

About Adobe RGB
This color space is mainly used for commercial printing and other industrial uses. This setting is not recommended if you do not know about image processing, Adobe RGB, and Design rule for Camera File System 2.0 (Exif 2.21). Since the image will look very subdued with an sRGB computer environment and printers not compatible with Design rule for Camera File System 2.0 (Exif 2.21), post-processing of the image with software 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 in the CD-ROM.

A AE LockN

Use AE lock when the area of focus is to be different from the exposure metering area or when you want to take multiple shots at the same exposure setting. Press the <A> button to lock the exposure, then recompose and take the shot. This is called AE lock. It is effective for backlit subjects.
