Troubleshooting Guide If a problem occurs with the camera, first refer to 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 pack does not recharge. Do not recharge any battery pack other than a genuine Canon Battery Pack LP-E8. The battery charger’s lamp blinks.
Troubleshooting Guide The battery becomes exhausted quickly. Use a fully-charged battery pack (p.26). The rechargeable battery pack performance will degrade over repeated use. Purchase a new one. If you use Live View shooting or shoot movies for a prolonged period (p.123, 141), the number of possible shots will decrease. If you hold down the shutter button for a long time or often use only the AF without taking pictures, the number of possible shots will decrease.
Troubleshooting Guide The card cannot be used. If a card error message is displayed, see page 30 or 287. The file numbering does not start from 0001. If the card already contains recorded images, the image number might not start from 0001 (p.170). The image is out of focus. Set the lens focus mode switch to (p.36). To prevent camera shake, press the shutter button gently (p.39, 40). If the lens has an Image Stabilizer, set the IS switch to <1>. In low light, the shutter speed may become slow.
Troubleshooting Guide The maximum burst during continuous shooting is lower. Under [7 Custom Functions (C.Fn)], set [5: High ISO speed noise reduction] to [Standard], [Low], or [Disable]. If it is set to [Strong], the maximum burst during continuous shooting will greatly decrease (p.254). If you shoot something that has fine detail (field of grass, etc.), the file size will be larger and the actual maximum burst might be lower than the number mentioned on page 76. ISO 100 cannot be set.
Troubleshooting Guide When I use the mode with flash, the shutter speed becomes slow. If you shoot at night when the background is dark, the shutter speed becomes slow automatically (slow-sync shooting) so that both the subject and background are properly exposed. If you do not want a slow shutter speed to be set, set [3: Flash sync. speed in Av mode] in [7 Custom Functions (C.Fn)] to 1 or 2 (p.252). The built-in flash pops up by itself.
Troubleshooting Guide The shutter makes two shooting sounds during Live View shooting. If you use flash, the shutter will make two sounds each time you shoot (p.125). During Live View and movie shooting, a white or red icon is displayed. It indicates that the camera’s internal temperature is high. If the white icon is displayed, the still photo’s image quality might deteriorate.
Troubleshooting Guide Playback 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. Part of the image blinks in black. It is the highlight alert (p.228). Overexposed highlight areas with a loss of highlight detail will blink. The image cannot be erased.
Troubleshooting Guide The subject looks distorted during movie shooting. If you move the camera to the left or right quickly (high-speed panning) or shoot a moving subject, the image may look distorted. No image appears on the TV screen. Make sure the AV cable or HDMI cable’s plug is inserted all the way in (p.218, 221). Set the video OUT system (NTSC/PAL) to the same video system as the TV set (p.221). My card reader does not recognize the card.
Troubleshooting Guide The file name starts with “MVI_”. It is a movie file (p.171). The shooting date and time displayed is incorrect. The correct date and time has not been set (p.34). The date and time is not in the picture. The shooting date and time does not appear in the picture. The date and time is instead recorded in the image data as shooting information. When printing, you can imprint the date and time in the picture by using the date and time recorded in the shooting information (p.241).
Error Codes Error No. If there is a problem with the camera, an error message will appear. Follow the onscreen instructions. Countermeasures No. 01 02 Error Message & Solution Communications between the camera and lens is faulty. Clean the lens contacts. Î Clean the electrical contacts on the camera and lens and use a Canon lens (p.15, 18). Y P CO Card cannot be accessed. Reinsert/change card or format card with camera.
