Handling Camera Precautions 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 with a well-wrung wet cloth.
Handling LCD Panel and LCD Precautions Monitor _ Although the LCD monitor is manufactured with very high precision technology with over 99.99% active pixels, there might be e few dead pixels among the remaining 0.01% or less pixels. Dead pixels displaying only black or red, etc., are not a malfunction. They do not affect the images recorded.

ISO Setting the ISO Speed* The ISO speed is a numeric indication of the sensitivity to light. A higher ISO speed number indicates a higher sensitivity to light. Therefore, a high ISO speed is suited for low light and moving subjects. However, the image may look more coarse with noise, etc. On the other hand, a low ISO speed is not suited for low light or action shots, but the image will look cleaner. The camera can be set between ISO 100 and 1600 in 1stop increments.

Setting the AF, Metering, and Drive Modes Drive modes I ' AFmode Meteringmode The viewfinder has 9 AF points. By selecting a suitable AF point, you can shoot with autofocus while framing the subject as desired. You can also set the AF mode to suit the subject or obtain the desired effect. Evaluative, partial, and centerweighted average metering modes are provided. Single, continuous, and Self-timer drive modes are provided. Select the metering mode that suits the subject or your photographic intention.
AF Selecting the AF Mode* The AF mode is the autofocusing operation method. Three AF modes are provided. One-Shot AF is suited for still subjects, while AI Servo AF is for moving subjects.

AF Selecting * About the AF Mode* Predictive AF If the subject approaches or retreats from the camera at a constant rate, the camera tracks the subject and predicts the focusing distance immediately before the picture is taken. This is for obtaining correct focus at the moment of exposure. _ When the AF point selection is automatic, the camera first uses the center AF point to focus.
FRSelecting the AF Point* The AF point is used for focusing. The AF point can be selected automatically by the camera or manually by you. Automatic AF point selection is set in the Basic Zone modes and <_DBI>. In the
