3 Custom Function SettingsN Custom Functions are organized into four groups based on the function type: C.Fn I: Exposure, C.Fn II: Image, C.Fn III: Auto focus/Drive, C.Fn IV: Operation/Others. C.Fn I: Exposure C.Fn-1 Exposure level increments 0: 1/3-stop 1: 1/2-stop Sets 1/2-stop increments for the shutter speed, aperture, exposure compensation, AEB, etc. Effective when you prefer to control the exposure in less fine increments than 1/3-stop increments.
3 Custom Function SettingsN C.Fn II: Image C.Fn-3 Long exposure noise reduction 0: Off 1: Auto For 1 sec. or longer exposures, noise reduction is performed automatically if noise typical of long exposures is detected. This [Auto] setting is effective in most cases. 2: On Noise reduction is performed for all exposures 1 sec. or longer. The [On] setting may be effective for noise that cannot be detected or reduced with the [Auto] setting.
3 Custom Function SettingsN C.Fn-5 Auto Lighting Optimizer 0: Enable If the image comes out too dark or the contrast is too low, the image brightness and contrast are corrected automatically. (Depending on the shooting conditions, image noise may increase.) This function will not work with manual exposures nor 1 and 1+73 images. In the Basic Zone modes, the Auto Lighting Optimizer will operate automatically.
3 Custom Function SettingsN C.Fn III: Auto focus/Drive C.Fn-6 AF-assist beam firing The AF-assist beam can be emitted by the camera’s built-in flash or by the external, EOS-dedicated Speedlite. 0: Enable 1: Disable AF-assist beam not emitted. 2: Only external flash emits If an external, EOS-dedicated Speedlite is attached, it will emit the AFassist beam when necessary. The camera’s built-in flash will not emit the AF-assist beam.

Using the Remote Switch Remote Switch RS-60E3 (Sold separately) Remote switch with a 60 cm/2.0 feet cord for pressing the shutter button halfway or completely. It connects to the camera’s remote control terminal. The camera is not compatible with Remote Controller RC-6, RC-1 and RC-5 (sold separately).
Using the Remote Switch Using the Eyepiece Cover If you take a picture without looking at the viewfinder, light entering the eyepiece can throw off the exposure. To prevent this, use the eyepiece cover (p.22) attached to the camera strap. 1 Remove the eyecup. Push the bottom of the eyecup upward. the eyepiece cover. 2 Attaching Slide the eyepiece cover down into the eyepiece groove to attach it.
External Speedlites EOS-dedicated, EX-series Speedlites Basically operates like a built-in flash for easy operation. When an EX-series Speedlite is attached to the camera, almost all the autoflash control is done by the camera. In other words, it is like a highoutput flash attached externally in place of the built-in flash. For detailed instructions, see the EX-series Speedlite’s instruction manual. This camera is a Type-A camera that can use all the features of EX-series Speedlites.
External Speedlites Canon Speedlites other than the EX-series With an EZ/E/EG/ML/TL-series Speedlite set in the TTL or A-TTL autoflash mode, the flash can be fired at full output only. Set the camera’s shooting mode to (manual exposure) or (aperture-priority AE) and shoot. When using a Speedlite which has manual flash mode, shoot in the manual flash mode. With an EX-series Speedlite set to TTL autoflash with the flash’s Custom Function, the flash will fire at full output only.
