If you use Live View shooting or shoot movies for a prolonged period (p.107, 123), the number of possible shots will decrease. The camera turns off by itself. Auto power off is in effect. If you do not want auto power off to take effect, set [5 Auto power off] to [Off].
Troubleshooting Guide The card cannot be used. If a card error message is displayed, see page 42 or 224. The maximum burst during continuous shooting is lower.

If you use flash, the shutter will make two sounds each time you shoot (p.109). The movie shooting terminates by itself.
Troubleshooting Guide Display & Operation Problems The LCD monitor does not display a clear image. If the LCD monitor is dirty, use a soft cloth to clean it. In low or high temperatures, the LCD monitor display may seem slow or might look black. It will return to normal at room temperature. The menu screen shows few tabs and options. In Basic Zone modes and in movie shooting mode, certain tabs and menu options are not displayed. Set the shooting mode to a Creative Zone mode (p.40).
Troubleshooting Guide The shooting date and time displayed is incorrect. The correct date and time has not been set (p.29). No image appears on the TV screen. Make sure the AV cable or HDMI cable’s plug is inserted all the way in (p.167, 169). Set the video OUT system (NTSC/PAL) to the same video system as the TV set (p.214). Use the AV cable that came with the camera (p.169). The card reader does not detect the card.

Useful info: Basics of macro photography This ratio expresses the relative size of the image, compared to the subject. The larger the magnification ratio, the larger the subiect appears. The magnification ratio indicates the ratio of image size captured on sensor or film to the actual size of the subject. When using a magnification ratio of 1x, for example, the image captured on the sensor or film is the same size as the subject.
Control depth of field, depending on how wide the aperture diaphragm is opened An aperture diaphragm is a mechanism that cortro s the amount of light entering a camera through the lens. By adjusting the opening of the aperture, one can vary the depth of the zone of in-focus elements. If the aperture IS wide open (f/2 8, for example), the focused area becomes shallow, result ng In greater blurring of images n front of and beh nd the subject in focus.

Taking too many fuzzy pictures? Canon IS * Lenses are the solution! I 01 I
Nice shot! Or is it? When you enlarge your image, the print looks fuzzy. Frustrating! But a common experience. In most cases, this accidental blurring is caused by camera shake - especially when shooting with a telephoto lens or at slow shutter speeds in dark places. Even if you try to stay still, the camera isn't perfectly steady in your hands when the shutter button is pressed. But now there's a great solution: Canon 15* Lenses. For beautifully clear, blur-free photos. With ease.
Day or night, indoors or outdoors.

\ IS benefits \ \ \ When does camera shake tend to happen, and what causes it to occur? Perhaps you've encountered blurred images when enlarging pictures: photos that look fine in smaller postcard sizes appear quite fuzzy at greater size. In fact, camera shake happens more frequently than you'd think. There are several reasons for accidental blurring.
• Carrera shake. How do Canon IS Lenses repress blurring caused by camera shake? Canon IS Lenses detect camera shake with a pair Image Stabilizer Parallel Movement Principle of built-in gyro sensors, shifting lens components in 1. Lens When still the direction of the vibration to counteract it and Capturing element prevent blurring. When the shutter button is pressed I~ T"'b,,,, ( halfway while the IS function is on, compensation for camera shake is activated in just 0.5 seconds.
--------------------------------------------------- \ \ In-lens image stabilizer design benefits \ \ \_-------- Why is each individual lens optimized for shake correction? Each Canon IS Lens has a unique optical design for specialized performance. So, Canon's optical correction systems and control mechanisms are customized for effective positioning in each lens model. Canon builds these mechanisms into the lenses to ensure that the optical correction system is optimized for each individual lens.
• a rak • How does a stable viewfinder image help you take better picture? Looking into the viewfinder while focusing and framing is essential to SLR shooting, so a stable viewfinder image is crucial. Canon IS Lenses correct for camera shake by shifting certain optical components in inverse relation to the lens movement, maintaining the position of incoming light rays on the film or capturing elements.
\ In-lens image stabilizer design benefits \ Improve your framing accuracy! Blurry viewfinder images lead to framing errors, so you can inadvertently cut off important details, especially when using a telephoto zoom lens. With Canon IS Lenses such framing errors are a thing of the past. Canon's in-lens image stabilizers enable accurate framing when you fill the frame with part of your subject. Since the viewfinder image is blur-free, you can check every detail and make subtle framing adjustments.
• COrlero ~hOkE' _ rapture fleeting photo opportunities l Concentrating on your subject is difficult if the viewfinder image is blurred. 'vv'hen you lose concentration, you tend to miss small gestures and other momentary photo occasions. Canon's inlens image stabilizer gives you a clear viewfinder image, so itls easier to notice and capture such photo opportunities. o D 0 Canon S Lenses help here Decisive moments with moving subjects.
Background information: A new IS lens for macro What is Hybrid IS? Macro photography involves shooting close-ups of subjects, including flowers, insects, and jewelry. Until recently, however, there was no technology that could compensate for the type of camera shake common to macro photograpy.
• Come a rake_ photography f-< y ' I I There are two types of camera shake that can negatively affect image quality: angle camera shake and shift camera shake. Conventional Canon IS technology incorporates a vibration gyro (angular speed sensor) to compensate for angle camera shake. This is an excellent solution for most types of photography, but provides insufficient image stabilization for macro photography, which is highly susceptible to shift camera shake.
