F Shooting Night Scenes (Handheld) Using a tripod when shooting a night scene gives the best results. However, the (Handheld Night Scene) mode enables you to shoot night scenes even while handholding the camera. In this shooting mode, four shots are taken continuously for each picture, and the resulting one image with reduced camera shake is recorded. Shooting Tips Hold the camera firmly. While shooting, hold the camera firmly and steadily.
G Shooting Backlit Scenes When shooting a scene having both bright and dark areas, use the (HDR Backlight Control) mode. When you take one picture in this mode, three continuous shots are taken at different exposures. This results in one image, with a wide tonal range, that has minimized the clipped shadows caused by backlighting. Shooting Tips Hold the camera firmly. While shooting, hold the camera firmly and steadily. In this mode, three shots are aligned and merged into a single image.
2 Shooting Portraits The <2> (Portrait) mode blurs the background to make the human subject stand out. It also makes skin tones and hair look softer. Shooting Tips 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.
3 Shooting Landscapes 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. Shooting Tips 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. Shooting night scenes. The <3> mode is also good for night scenes because it disables the built-in flash.
4 Shooting Close-ups 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). Shooting Tips 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 on them.
5 Shooting Moving Subjects Use the <5> (Sports) mode to shoot a moving subject, such as a running person or a moving vehicle. Shooting Tips Use a telephoto lens. The use of a telephoto lens is recommended for shooting from a distance. Track the subject with the Area AF frame. Press the shutter button halfway to start autofocusing in Area AF frame. During autofocusing, the beeper will continue beeping softly. If focus cannot be achieved, the focus indicator will blink.
Cautions for Kids During Live View shooting, the image quality can be set to 1 or JPEG. If 41 or 61 is set, the image will be recorded in 1 quality. During Live View shooting, if flash is fired in continuous shooting, the continuous shooting speed will decrease. Even if the flash is not fired for subsequent shots, shooting will be performed with the decreased continuous shooting speed.
Cautions for Handheld Night Scene When shooting with flash, if the subject is too close to the camera, the picture may come out extremely bright (overexposure). If you use flash to shoot a night scene with few lights, the shots may not align correctly. This can result in a blurry picture. If you use flash and the human subject is close to the background that is also illuminated by the flash, the shots may not align correctly. This can result in a blurry picture.
v Applying Creative Filters In the (Creative filter) mode, you can apply one of ten filter effects (Grainy B/W*, Soft focus*, Fish-eye effect*, Toy camera effect*, Miniature effect*, Water painting effect*, HDR art standard, HDR art vivid, HDR art bold, and HDR art embossed) for shooting.

3 Setting the Image-Recording Quality If you select both RAW and JPEG, the same image will be recorded simultaneously to the card in both RAW and JPEG at the imagerecording qualities that were set. The two images will be recorded with the same file numbers (file extension: .JPG for JPEG and .CR2 for RAW). The image-recording quality icons are as follows: 1 (RAW), 41 (Middle RAW), 61 (Small RAW), JPEG, 7 (Fine), 8 (Normal), 3 (Large), 4 (Middle), 6 (Small).
i: Setting the ISO Speed for Still PhotosN Set the ISO speed (image sensor’s sensitivity to light) to suit the ambient light level. In Basic Zone modes, the ISO speed is set automatically. Regarding the ISO speed during movie shooting, see pages 200 and 202. 1 Press the button (9). the ISO speed. 2 Set While looking at the LCD panel or in the viewfinder, turn the <6> or <5> dial. ISO speed can be set within ISO 100 - ISO 16000 in 1/3-stop increments. “A” indicates ISO Auto.
i: Setting the ISO Speed for Still PhotosN As “H” (equivalent to ISO 25600) is an expanded ISO speed setting, noise (dots of light, banding, etc.) and irregular colors will be more noticeable, and the resolution will be lower compared with the standard setting. If [z3: Highlight tone priority] is set to [Enable], ISO 100/125/160 and “H” (equivalent to ISO 25600) cannot be selected (p.147). Shooting in high temperatures may result in images that look grainier.
A Selecting a Picture StyleN By selecting a Picture Style, you can obtain image characteristics matching your photographic expression or the subject. In Basic Zone modes, [D] (Auto) is set automatically. (In modes, [P] (Standard) is set.) 1 Select [Picture Style]. Under the [z3] tab, select [Picture Style], then press <0>. a Picture Style. 2 Select Select a Picture Style, then press <0>. The Picture Style will be set.
A Selecting a Picture StyleN R Landscape For vivid blues and greens, and very sharp and crisp images. Effective for impressive landscapes. u Fine Detail Suited for detailed outline and fine texture description of the subject. The colors will be slightly vivid. S Neutral This Picture Style is for users who prefer to process images with their computer. For natural colors and subdued images with modest brightness and color saturation. U Faithful Suited for processing the image with a computer.
3 Setting the White BalanceN White balance (WB) is for making the white areas look white. Normally, the Auto [Q] (Ambience priority) or [Qw] (White priority) setting will obtain the correct white balance. If natural-looking colors cannot be obtained with Auto, you can select the white balance to match the light source or set it manually by shooting a white object. In Basic Zone modes, [Q] (Ambience priority) is set automatically. (In the
mode, [Qw] (White priority) is set.) 1 Select [White balance].
3 Setting the White BalanceN White Balance To the human eye, a white object looks white regardless of the type of lighting. With a digital camera, the white for color correction basis is decided depending on the color temperature of the illumination, and then the color is adjusted with software to make the white areas look white. With this function, pictures with natural color tones can be taken.
3 Setting the White BalanceN Cautions for Setting [Qw] (White priority) 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. When using flash, the color tone will be the same as [Q] (Ambience priority).
3 Auto Correction of Brightness and ContrastN If the image comes out dark or the contrast is low, the brightness and contrast can be corrected automatically. This function is called Auto Lighting Optimizer. The default setting is [Standard]. With JPEG images, the correction is applied when the image is captured. In Basic Zone modes, [Standard] is set automatically. 1 Select [Auto Lighting Optimizer]. Under the [z2] tab, select [Auto Lighting Optimizer], then press <0>. the setting.
3 Setting Noise ReductionN High ISO Speed Noise Reduction This function reduces the noise generated in the image. Although noise reduction is applied at all ISO speeds, it is particularly effective at high ISO speeds. When shooting at low ISO speeds, the noise in the darker parts of the image (shadow areas) can further be reduced. 1 Select [High ISO speed NR]. Under the [z3] tab, select [High ISO speed NR], then press <0>. the level. 2 Set Select the desired noise reduction level, then press <0>.
3 Setting Noise ReductionN Cautions for Setting Multi Shot Noise Reduction If there is significant misalignment in the image due to camera shake, the noise reduction effect may become smaller. If you are handholding the camera, keep it steady to prevent camera shake. Using a tripod is recommended. If you shoot a moving subject, the moving subject may leave afterimages. The image alignment may not function properly with repetitive patterns (lattice, stripes, etc.) or flat, single-tone images.
3 Setting Noise ReductionN Long Exposure Noise Reduction Noise reduction is possible with images exposed for 1 sec. or longer. 1 Select [Long exp. noise reduction]. Under the [z3] tab, select [Long exp. noise reduction], then press <0>. the desired setting. 2 Set Select the desired setting, then press <0>. Auto For exposures of 1 sec. or longer, noise reduction is performed automatically if noise typical of long exposures is detected. This [Auto] setting is effective in most cases.
3 Setting Noise ReductionN With [Auto] and [Enable], the noise reduction process after the picture is taken may take the same amount of time as that for the exposure. You cannot take another picture until the noise reduction process is completed. Images taken at ISO 1600 or higher may look grainier with the [Enable] setting than with the [Disable] or [Auto] setting.
3 Highlight Tone PriorityN You can reduce overexposed, clipped highlights. 1 Select [Highlight tone priority]. Under the [z3] tab, select [Highlight tone priority], then press <0>. [Enable]. 2 Select Highlight details are improved. The dynamic range is expanded from the standard 18% gray to bright highlights. The gradation between the grays and highlights becomes smoother. the picture. 3 Take The image will be recorded with highlight tone priority applied.
3 Correction of Lens Peripheral Illumination and AberrationsN Peripheral light fall-off is a phenomenon that makes the image corners look darker due to the lens characteristics. Color fringing along subject outlines is called chromatic aberration. And image distortion due to lens characteristics is called distortion. These lens aberrations and light falloff can be corrected.
3 Correction of Lens Peripheral Illumination and AberrationsN Chromatic Aberration Correction 1 Select the setting. Check that [Correction data available] is displayed for the attached lens. Select [Chromatic aberration], then press <0>. Select [Enable], then press <0>. the picture. 2 Take The image will be recorded with the chromatic aberration corrected. Distortion Correction 1 Select the setting. Check that [Correction data available] is displayed for the attached lens.
3 Correction of Lens Peripheral Illumination and AberrationsN When distortion correction is enabled, the camera records an image range narrower than the one seen through the viewfinder. (Image periphery will be slightly trimmed and resolution slightly lowered.) Distortion correction will be reflected in the captured image, but not in the viewfinder or Live View image during shooting. If you set [Distortion correction] to [Enable], the maximum burst during continuous shooting will decrease.
3 Correction of Lens Peripheral Illumination and AberrationsN Cautions for Lens Correction Peripheral illumination correction, chromatic aberration correction, and distortion correction cannot be applied to JPEG images already taken. When using a non-Canon lens, setting the corrections to [Disable] is recommended, even if [Correction data available] is displayed.
3 Reducing FlickerN If you shoot an image with a fast shutter speed under a light source such as fluorescent light, the blinking of the light source causes flicker and the image may be vertically unevenly exposed. If continuous shooting is used under these conditions, uneven exposures or colors across the images may result.
3 Reducing FlickerN If the subject is against a dark background or if there is a bright light in the image, flicker may not be properly detected. Under certain special types of lighting, the camera may not be able to reduce the effects of the flicker even when is displayed in the viewfinder. Depending on the light source, flicker may not be detected properly. If you recompose a shot, may appear and disappear intermittently.

5 Advanced Operations In Creative Zone modes, you can change various settings of the camera as you desire to obtain a wide variety of shooting results, by selecting the shutter speed and/or aperture, adjusting the exposure as you prefer, etc. The O icon at the upper right of the page title indicates that the function is available only in Creative Zone modes (d/ s/f/a/F).
d: Program AE The camera automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture to suit the subject’s brightness. This is called Program AE. * stands for Program. * AE stands for Auto Exposure. 1 Set the Mode Dial to . on the subject. 2 Focus Look through the viewfinder and aim the AF point over the subject. Then press the shutter button halfway. When focus is achieved, the focus indicator on the viewfinder’s bottom right will light up (when in One-Shot AF mode).
d: Program AE If the “30"” shutter speed and the lowest f/number blink, it indicates underexposure. Increase the ISO speed or use flash. If the “8000” shutter speed and the highest f/number blink, it indicates overexposure. Lower the ISO speed or use an ND filter (sold separately) to reduce the amount of light entering the lens. Differences Between and Modes In the mode, many functions, such as the AF operation and metering mode, are set automatically to prevent spoiled shots.
s: Shutter-Priority AE In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera automatically sets the aperture to obtain the standard exposure matching the brightness of the subject. This is called shutter-priority AE. A faster shutter speed can freeze the action of a moving subject. A slower shutter speed can create a blurred effect, giving the impression of motion. * stands for Time value. Blurred motion (Slow shutter speed: 1/30 sec.) 1 Frozen motion (Fast shutter speed: 1/2000 sec.
s: Shutter-Priority AE If the lowest f/number blinks, it indicates underexposure. Turn the <6> dial to set a slower shutter speed until the aperture stops blinking or set a higher ISO speed. If the highest f/number blinks, it indicates overexposure. Turn the <6> dial to set a faster shutter speed until the aperture stops blinking or set a lower ISO speed. Shutter Speed Display The shutter speeds from “8000” to “4” indicate the denominator of the fractional shutter speed.
f: Aperture-Priority AE In this mode, you set the desired aperture and the camera sets the shutter speed automatically to obtain the standard exposure matching the subject brightness. This is called aperture-priority AE. A higher f/number (smaller aperture hole) will make more of the foreground and background fall within acceptable focus. On the other hand, a lower f/number (larger aperture hole) will make less of the foreground and background fall within acceptable focus.
f: Aperture-Priority AE If the “30"” shutter speed blinks, it indicates underexposure. Turn the <6> dial to set a faster aperture (lower f/number) until the shutter speed blinking stops or set a higher ISO speed. If the “8000” shutter speed blinks, it indicates overexposure. Turn the <6> dial to set a slower aperture (higher f/number) until the shutter speed blinking stops or set a lower ISO speed. Aperture Value Display The higher the f/number, the smaller the aperture opening will be.
a: Manual Exposure In this mode, you set both the shutter speed and aperture as desired. To determine the exposure, refer to the exposure level indicator in the viewfinder or use a commercially-available exposure meter. This method is called manual exposure. * stands for Manual. 1 Set the Mode Dial to . 2 Set the ISO speed (p.135). the shutter speed and aperture. 3 Set To set the shutter speed, turn the <6> dial. To set the aperture, turn the <5> dial.
a: Manual Exposure Exposure Compensation with ISO Auto If the ISO speed is set to A (AUTO) for manual exposure shooting, you can set exposure compensation (p.166) as follows: • [z2: Expo.comp./AEB] • Under [8C.Fn III-4: Custom Controls] with [s: Expo comp (hold btn, turnS)]. • Quick Control (p.50) If ISO Auto is set, the ISO speed setting will change to suit the shutter speed and aperture in order to obtain a standard exposure. Therefore, you may not obtain the desired exposure effect.
q Selecting the Metering ModeN You can select one of four methods to measure the subject brightness. In Basic Zone modes, evaluative metering is set automatically. (In the <8: x> and modes, center-weighted average metering is set.) 1 Press the button (9). the metering mode. 2 Select While looking at the LCD panel, turn the <6> or <5> dial.
q Selecting the Metering ModeN e Center-weighted average metering The metering is averaged for the entire scene with the viewfinder center weighted more heavily. With q (Evaluative metering), the exposure setting will be locked when you press the shutter button halfway and focus is achieved. In the w (Partial metering), r (Spot metering), and e (Center-weighted average metering) modes, the exposure is set at the moment the picture is taken. (Pressing the shutter button halfway does not lock the exposure.
O Setting Exposure CompensationN Exposure compensation can brighten (increased exposure) or darken (decreased exposure) the standard exposure set by the camera. Exposure compensation can be set in the , , and shooting modes. Although you can set the exposure compensation up to ±5 stops* in 1/3-stop increments, the exposure compensation indicator in the viewfinder and on the LCD panel can only display the setting up to ±3 stops.
Auto Exposure Bracketing (AEB)N By changing the shutter speed or aperture automatically, the camera brackets the exposure up to ±3 stops in 1/3-stop increments for three successive shots. This is called AEB. * AEB stands for Auto Exposure Bracketing. 1 Select [Expo.comp./AEB]. Under the [z2] tab, select [Expo.comp./AEB], then press <0>. the AEB range. 2 Set Turn the <6> dial to set the AEB AEB range range. Press the keys to set the exposure compensation amount.
