(9) a white balance setting.
B: 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 shades can be taken.
B: Setting the White BalanceN Cautions for Setting [Qw] (White priority) The reddish color cast of subjects may fade. When multiple light sources are included on the screen, the red color cast of the picture may not be lessened. When using flash, the color tone will be the same as [Q] (Ambience priority). O Custom White Balance Custom white balance enables you to manually set the white balance for a specific light source for better accuracy.

u White Balance CorrectionN You can correct the white balance that is set. This adjustment will have the same effect as using a commercially-available color temperature conversion filter or color compensating filter. Each color can be corrected to one of nine levels. This function is for advanced users who are familiar with using color temperature conversion or color compensating filters. White Balance Correction 1 Select [WB Shift/Bkt.]. Under the [z2] tab, select [WB Shift/Bkt.], then press <0>.
u White Balance CorrectionN White Balance Auto Bracketing With just one shot, three images with different color tones can be recorded simultaneously. Based on the color temperature of the current white balance setting, the image will be bracketed with a blue/amber bias or magenta/green bias. This is called white balance bracketing (WB-BKT). White balance bracketing is possible up to ±3 levels in single-level increments. Set the white balance bracketing amount.
u White Balance CorrectionN During WB bracketing, the maximum burst for continuous shooting will be lower. Since three images are recorded for one shot, it takes longer to record the image to the card. You can also set white balance correction and AEB together with white balance bracketing. If you set AEB in combination with white balance bracketing, a total of nine images will be recorded for a single shot. When white balance bracketing is set, the white balance icon will blink.
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. [Standard] is automatically set in the mode. 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.

Under the [z3] tab, select [High ISO speed NR], then press <0>. the level. 2 SetSelect 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 be minimal. 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 SetSelect 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. During noise reduction, shooting is still possible as long as the maximum burst indicator in the viewfinder shows “1” or higher. 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>.

3 Correction of Lens Peripheral Illumination and Aberration Cautions for Lens Correction Peripheral illumination correction and chromatic aberration 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. With anti-flicker shooting, the camera detects the frequency of the light source’s blinking and takes the picture when the flicker causes less effect on exposure or color.
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 detected. Under certain special types of lighting, the camera may not be able to reduce the effects of the flicker even when is displayed. Depending on the light source, flicker may not be detected properly. If you recompose a shot, may appear and disappear intermittently.
3 Setting the Color SpaceN The range of reproducible colors is called “color space”. With this camera, you can set the color space for captured images to sRGB or Adobe RGB. For normal shooting, sRGB is recommended. The color space is set automatically to [sRGB] in the mode. 1 Select [Color space]. Under the [z2] tab, select [Color space], then press <0>. the desired color space. 2 SetSelect [sRGB] or [Adobe RGB], then press <0>.

Then press the shutter button halfway. X When focus is achieved, the focus indicator in the viewfinder will light up (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 action (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 suiting 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 larger 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 smaller aperture (higher f/number) until the shutter speed blinking stops or set a lower ISO speed. Aperture 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.

Troubleshooting Guide If a problem occurs with the camera, first consult this Troubleshooting Guide. If this Troubleshooting Guide does not resolve the problem, contact your dealer or nearest Canon Service Center. Power-Related Problems The battery does not recharge. If the battery’s remaining capacity is 94% or higher, the battery will not be recharged (p.446). Do not use any battery other than genuine Battery Pack LP-E6N/LPE6. The charger’s lamp blinks at high speed.
Troubleshooting Guide The access lamp still lights or blinks even when the power switch is <2>. If the power is turned off while an image is being recorded to the card, the access lamp will remain on or continue to blink for a few seconds. When the image recording is completed, the power will turn off automatically. [Does this battery/do these batteries display the Canon logo?] is displayed. Do not use any battery other than a genuine Battery Pack LP-E6N/LP-E6. Remove and install the battery again (p.42).
Troubleshooting Guide Shooting-Related Problems The lens cannot be attached. The camera cannot be used with EF-S or EF-M lenses (p.52). The viewfinder is dark. Install a recharged battery in the camera (p.40). No images can be shot or recorded. Make sure the card is properly inserted (p.43). If you are using an SD card, slide the card’s write-protect switch to the Write/Erase setting (p.43). If the card is full, replace the card or delete unnecessary images to make space (p.43, 328).
Troubleshooting Guide I have to press the shutter button twice completely to take a picture. If [z4: Mirror lockup] is set to [Press V twice to shoot], set it to [Disable]. The image is out of focus or blurred. Set the lens’s focus mode switch to (p.52). Press the shutter button gently to prevent camera shake (p.54-55). If the lens has an Image Stabilizer, set the IS switch to <1>. In low light, the shutter speed may become slow. Use a faster shutter speed (p.206), set a higher ISO speed (p.
Troubleshooting Guide The AF points do not light up in red. The AF points light up in red when focus is achieved in low-light conditions. In the , , , , and modes, you can set whether to have the AF points light in red when focus is achieved (p.132). The continuous shooting speed is slow. The continuous shooting speed may become slower depending on the shutter speed, aperture, subject conditions, brightness, lens, flash use, temperature, battery type, remaining battery level, etc. (p.143).
Troubleshooting Guide I cannot shoot in the 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio. During viewfinder shooting, you cannot shoot in either the 4:3 or the 16:9 aspect ratio even when the aspect ratio is set. During Live View shooting, you can shoot images in the 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios (p.154). ISO 100 cannot be set. ISO speed expansion cannot be selected. If [z3: Highlight tone priority] is set to [Enable], the settable ISO speed range will be ISO 200 - ISO 6400.
Troubleshooting Guide Multi Shot Noise Reduction cannot be set. If the image-recording quality is set to RAW or RAW+JPEG, [Multi Shot Noise Reduction] cannot be set. The Live View image or movie shooting image is not displayed during multiple-exposure shooting. If [On:ContShtng] is set, Live View display, image review after image capture, or image playback is not possible during shooting (p.226). Live View shooting ends when multiple exposure shooting is performed.
Troubleshooting Guide The flash does not fire. Make sure the flash (or PC sync cord) is securely attached to the camera. If you use a non-Canon flash unit with Live View shooting, set [z6: Silent LV shoot.] to [Disable] (p.266). The flash always fires at full output. If you use a flash unit other than an EX-series Speedlite, the flash will always be fired at full output (p.245).
Troubleshooting Guide During Live View or movie shooting, a white icon is displayed. or red E It indicates that the camera’s internal temperature is high. If the white < > icon is displayed, the still photo’s image quality may deteriorate. If the red icon is displayed, it indicates that the Live View or movie shooting will soon stop automatically (p.277, 317). Movie shooting stops by itself. If the card’s writing speed is slow, movie shooting may stop automatically.
Troubleshooting Guide The manually set ISO speed changes when switching to movie shooting. If you shoot a movie with manual exposure set to L (equivalent to ISO 50), the ISO speed setting will switch to ISO 100. Even if you switch back to still photo shooting, the ISO speed will not revert to L. The exposure changes during movie shooting. If you change the shutter speed or aperture during movie shooting, the changes in the exposure may be recorded.
Troubleshooting Guide When I shoot still photos during movie shooting, the movie shooting stops. To shoot still photos during movie shooting, using a CF card capable of UDMA transfer or a UHS-I SD card is recommended. Setting a lower image quality for still photos or shooting fewer continuous still photos may resolve the problem. Time code is off. Shooting still photos during movie shooting will cause a discrepancy between the actual time and time code.
Troubleshooting Guide Display Problems The menu screen shows fewer tabs and options. In the mode, only certain menu tabs and options are displayed. Set the shooting mode to , , , or (p.64). Under the [9] tab, [Menu display] is set to [Display only My Menu tab] (p.436). The file name’s first character is an underscore (“_”). Set the color space to sRGB. If Adobe RGB is set, the first character will be an underscore (p.193). The fourth character in the file name changes.
Troubleshooting Guide The date and time are not in the picture. The shooting date and time do not appear in the picture. The date and time are recorded in the image data as shooting information. When printing, you can imprint the date and time in the picture, using the date and time recorded in the shooting information (p.385, 389). [###] is displayed. If the number of images recorded on the card exceeds the number the camera can display, [###] will be displayed (p.339).
Troubleshooting Guide Playback Problems Part of the image blinks in black. [33: Highlight alert] is set to [Enable] (p.325). A red box is displayed on the image. [33: AF point disp.] is set to [Enable] (p.325). The image cannot be erased. If the image is protected, it cannot be erased (p.334). The movie cannot be played back. Movies edited with a computer cannot be played back with the camera. Camera operation noise can be heard when the movie is played back.
Troubleshooting Guide No picture on the TV set. Check if the [53: Video system] is correctly set to [For NTSC] or [For PAL] (depending on the video system of your TV set). Check that the HDMI cable’s plug is inserted all the way in (p.351). There are multiple movie files for a single movie shoot. If the movie file size reaches 4 GB, another movie file will be created automatically (p.299). My card reader does not recognize the card.
Troubleshooting Guide Sensor Cleaning Problems The shutter makes a noise during sensor cleaning. If you selected [Clean nowf], the shutter will make a noise, but no picture is taken (p.374). Automatic sensor cleaning does not work. If you repeatedly turn the power switch <1> / <2> at a short interval, the icon may not be displayed (p.47). Printing-Related Problems There are fewer printing effects than listed in the instruction manual. Contents displayed on the screen vary depending on the printer.
