| Evaluative | Appropriate for standard shooting conditions, including backlit scenes. The camera divides images into several zones for metering. It evaluates complex lighting conditions, such as the position of the subject, the brightness, the direct light, and the backlighting, and adjusts the settings to the correct exposure for the main subject. | |
| Center Weighted Average | Averages the light metered from the entire frame, but gives greater weight to the subject matter at the center. | |
| Spot | Meters the area within the spot AE point at the center of the LCD monitor. Use this setting when you want to set the exposure on the subject in the center of the monitor. |

The nature of CCD image sensors is such that noise in the recorded image increases at long shutter speeds. This camera, however, applies special processing to images shot at shutter speeds slower than 1.3 seconds to eliminate the noise, thereby producing high-quality images. A certain amount of processing time, however, may be required before the next image can be shot.

- Use the LCD monitor to confirm that the image was recorded at the desired brightness.
- Please note that camera shake becomes a factor at low shutter speeds. Shoot with the camera secured to a tripod.

Use of the flash may result in an over-exposed image. If this occurs, shoot with the flash set to 📄.

You can set a custom white balance to obtain the optimal setting for the shooting conditions by having the camera evaluate an object, such as a piece of white paper or cloth, or a photo-quality gray card that you wish to establish as the standard white color.
In particular, take a custom white balance reading for the following situations that are difficult for the AWB (Auto) setting to detect correctly.
●Shooting close-ups
●Shooting subjects of monotone color (such as sky, sea or forest)
●Shooting with a peculiar source of light (such as a mercury-vapor lamp)

●Ensure that the center frame is completely filled with the white image.

- You are recommended to set the shooting mode to Ⓞ and the exposure compensation setting to [±0] before setting a custom white balance.
The correct white balance may not be obtained when the exposure setting is incorrect (image appears completely black or white).
- Shoot with the same settings as when reading the white balance data. If the settings differ, the optimal white balance may not be set.
In particular, the following should not be changed.
- ISO Speed
- Flash
Setting the flash to on or off is recommended. If the flash fires when reading the white balance data with the flash set to 🎨 (Auto) or 📷 (Auto Red-eye Reduction), make sure that you also use the flash when you shoot.
- Since the white balance data cannot be read in Stitch Assist mode, preset the white balance in another shooting mode beforehand.
- The camera will retain the custom white balance setting that you record even if you reset the camera to the default settings (p. 31).

Changing Colors


Shooting Mode




You can shoot images with the original colors transformed. This can be performed on movies as well as still images, allowing you to enjoy photographing with image or movie effects.
However, depending on the shooting conditions, the images may appear rough or you may not get the expected color. Before you try to photograph important subjects, we highly recommend that you shoot trial images and check the results.
If you set [Save Original] (p. 63) to [On] when shooting a still image, you can record the original image as well the transformed one.
| [DSZC] | Color Accent | Use this option to have only the color specified in the LCD monitor remain and to transform all others to black and white. |
| [cx2x] | Color Swap | Use this option to transform a color specified in the LCD monitor into another. The specified color can only be swapped into one other color, multiple colors cannot be chosen. |

The ISO speed will rise with some settings, which may increase the "noise" in the image.

Battery Handling
Battery Charge
The following icon and message will display.

Battery charge is low. Recharge it as soon as possible it will be used for an extended period.
Change the battery pack
Battery charge is insufficient to operate the camera. Replace the battery immediately.
Battery Handling Precautions
- Keep the battery terminals clean at all times.
Dirty terminals may cause poor contact between the battery and camera. Polish the terminals with a soft cotton swab before charging or using the battery. - At low temperatures, battery performance may be reduced and the low battery icon (☐) may appear earlier than usual. Under these conditions, revive the battery by warming it in a pocket immediately before use.
● However, ensure that there are no metallic items in the pocket that could cause a short circuit, such as a key ring, etc.
The battery may be short circuiting.
- Do not allow any metal objects such as key rings to touch the () and () terminals (Fig. A). To carry the battery or store it during periods of disuse, always replace the terminal cover (Fig. B).
These conditions can damage the battery.

- You are recommended to use it in the camera until it is completely discharged and to store it in an indoor location with low relative humidity and between the temperatures of 0 – 30 °C (32 – 86 °F).
Storing a fully charged battery for long periods of time (about one year) may shorten its life cycle or affect its performance. If you do not use the battery for long periods of time, charge it fully and discharge it fully in the camera about once a year before returning it to storage.
Charging the Battery
- Since this is a lithium-ion battery, you need not completely discharge it before recharging.
-
It takes approximately 1 hour 30 minutes to fully charge the battery from a fully discharged state (based on Canon's testing standards).
-
Charging it within a temperature range of 5 – 40 °C (41 – 104 °F) is recommended.
- Charge times may vary according to the ambient temperature and the battery's charge state.
- You are advised to charge the battery on the day of use, or one day before, to ensure a full charge.
Even charged batteries continue to discharge naturally.
- If the performance of the battery diminishes substantially even when it is fully charged, its life has been exceeded and it should be replaced.
Handling the Memory Card
SD Memory Card Write Protect Tab

Cautions When Handling
● Memory cards are high-precision electronic devices. Do not bend them, apply force to them, or subject them to shocks or vibration.
- Do not attempt to disassemble or alter the memory card.
- Do not allow dirt, water or foreign objects to contact the terminals on the back of the card. Do not touch the terminals with your hands or metal objects.
- Do not peel away the original label on the memory card or cover it with another label or sticker.
- When writing on the memory card, do not use a pencil or ball-point pen. Only use a soft point pen (e.g. felt-tip pen).
- Do not use or store memory cards in the following locations.
- Locations subject to dust or sand
- Locations subject to high humidity and high temperatures
- Since some or all of the data recorded on the memory card may be corrupted or erased by electrical noise, static electricity, or camera or card malfunction, making a backup copy of important data is recommended.
Formatting
- Please note that formatting (initializing) an memory card erases all data, including protected images.
- You are recommended to use memory cards that have been formatted in your camera.
- The card supplied with the camera may be used without further formatting.
- When the camera is malfunctioning, a corrupted memory card might be the cause. Reformatting the memory card may solve the problem.
- When a non-Canon brand memory card is malfunctioning, reformatting it may solve the problem.
- Memory cards formatted in other cameras, computers, or peripheral devices may not operate correctly in this camera. When that happens, reformat the memory card with this camera.
- If formatting in the camera does not work properly, turn the camera off and re-insert the memory card. Then turn the camera back on and format again.
Using an AC Adapter Kit (Sold Separately)
It is best to power the camera with AC Adapter Kit ACK-DC10 (sold separately) when you are using it for long periods of time or connecting it to a computer.

- The flash charge time will lengthen as the battery charge gets weaker. Always set the power/mode switch to [OFF] when you finish using the flash.
- Be careful not to touch the flash window or sensor windows with your fingers while the flash is in use.
● The flash may fire if another flash is being used in close proximity.
● The High-Power Flash may not fire outdoors in daylight or when there are no reflective items. - For continuous shooting, although the flash fires for the first shot, it does not fire for subsequent shots.
- Fasten the attachment screws securely so that they do not loosen. Failure to do so may lead to the dropping of the camera and flash resulting in damage to both.

● Before attaching the bracket to the flash, check that the lithium battery (CR123A or DL123) is installed.
- To illuminate the subjects properly, install the flash so that it is up against the side of the camera and parallel with the camera's front panel.
● A tripod can be used even when the flash is attached.
Batteries
●Charge becomes Severely Limited
If the battery usage time has considerably diminished, wipe the battery terminals well with a dry cloth. The terminals may be dirty from fingerprints.
●Usage in Cold Temperatures (Less than 0°C/32°F)
Get a spare generic lithium battery (CR123A or DL123). You are recommended to place the spare battery in your pocket to warm it up before switching it for the battery in the flash.
●Non-Use over Extended Periods
Leaving batteries in the High-Power Flash could allow the battery fluid to leak, damaging the product. Remove the batteries from the High-Power Flash and store them in a cool, dry place.
Camera Care and Maintenance
