Handling Cautions
Camera Care and Storage
• The camera is a precision instrument. Do not drop it or subject it to
physical shock.
• The camera is not waterproof and should not be used in wet
conditions or underwater. If the camera gets wet, take it to your
nearest Canon dealer as soon as possible. If small amounts of
water splash onto the camera, wipe it with a clean dry cloth. If the
camera is exposed to salty air, wipe it thoroughly with a slightly
damp cloth.
• Do not leave the camera in places prone to excessive heat such as
in a car on a sunny day. Excessive heat can cause the camera to
malfunction.
• The camera contains precision electronic circuitry. Never attempt to
disassemble the camera.
• Use only a blower brush to blow away any dust on the lens,
eyepiece, mirror, focusing screen, film compartment, etc. Do not
clean the camera body or lens with any cleaner containing an
organic solvent. For stubborn dirt, consult your nearest Canon
dealer.
• The shutter curtains are extremely thin. Use only a blower to clean
them. Be careful not to blow air too forcefully on the shutter
curtains. The shutter curtains can be easily deformed or damaged.
Also, when loading and unloading film, be careful not to touch the
shutter curtains.
• Do not touch the electrical contacts with your fingers. Otherwise
corrosion may develop on the contacts, resulting in improper
camera operation.
• If the camera is not to be used for an extended period, remove the
battery. Store the camera in a well-ventilated, cool, dry place.
During the storage period, press the shutter button to release the
shutter a few times once in a while.
• Avoid storing the camera in a laboratory, cabinet, etc., where
corrosive chemicals are present.

4
• If you have not used the camera for some time or are planning to
take shots you will not want to lose (overseas vacation, etc.), have
the camera checked by your Canon dealer beforehand, or check
for yourself that the camera components are working properly.
LCD Displays
By their nature, LCD displays react more slowly at low
temperatures, and may appear dark at high temperatures. The
display will return to normal at room temperature.
Batteries
• Before installing the batteries, wipe the battery contacts to remove
any fingerprints and smudges. This is to prevent faulty connections
and corrosion.
• Never disassemble or recharge the batteries. Also, never store a
battery in high-temperature places or short circuit the battery
contacts or toss a battery into a fire.
• Although the batteries work well even at low temperatures, battery
performance may decline slightly at freezing temperatures. In such
a case, keep spare batteries warm in a pocket, etc., and use and
warm the batteries alternately.
How Low Battery Levels Affect Camera Operation
On the LCD panel, if the <π> icon blinks or it is not displayed, a
proper exposure can still be obtained as long as the shutter
releases. However, when the battery level is low, film advance and
auto rewind might stop midway or not work at all and <π> icon
may blink on the LCD panel. After the batteries are replaced with
new ones, film advance will be possible and film rewind can resume
by pressing the <¢> button.
Lens Electrical Contacts
After detaching the lens from the camera, put Contacts
on the lens caps or put down the lens with
the rear end up to avoid scratching the lens
surface and electrical contacts.

• The battery life shown above is based on Canon’s testing
conditions with new batteries.

• If nothing is displayed on the LCD panel, the batteries may have

been installed incorrectly. Take out the batteries and install
correctly.
• If you often press the shutter button halfway for a prolonged
period or just autofocus without taking a picture, the battery life
will be affected.
• When not using the camera, set the Mode Dial to <:>.

13
How the Shutter Button Works
The shutter button has two stages. You can press it down halfway or
fully. The two levels of shutter button operation are as follows:
When it is pressed halfway:
• Pressing the shutter button down
halfway activates autofocusing
(AF), and also activates the
automatic exposure (AE)
mechanism and sets the shutter
speed and aperture value.
• The exposure (the combination of
shutter speed and aperture value)
appears on the LCD panel and in
the viewfinder (˜).
When it is pressed fully:
• The shutter is released to take the
picture and the film advances by
one frame.

If an Extender (optional) is used and the maximum aperture (the

lowest f/number) of the lens becomes smaller than f/5.6,
autofocusing will not operate.

Camera movement during the moment of exposure is called

camera shake. Camera shake can cause blurred pictures. To
prevent blurred pictures due to camera shake:
• Hold the camera steady.
· Firmly grasp the camera grip with your right hand, and press
your both elbows lightly against your body.
· Hold the lens at the bottom with your left hand.
· Press the camera against your face and look through the viewfinder.
· To maintain a stable stance, place one foot in front of the other
instead of lining up both feet.
• Use your finger tip to touch the shutter button, grasp the camera
with your entire right hand, then press the shutter button gently.

=Loading and Unloading Film
Loading Film
After you load the film, the camera first winds the entire roll onto the
camera’s take-up spool. With DX-coded film, the camera
automatically sets the film’s ISO speed. Then each time a picture is
taken, one frame of film is rewound back into the film cartridge. The
frame counter shows always number of shots remaining.

the back cover.
Close the back cover until it snaps
shut.
s Film prewind will start and there will
be a shutter-release sound about
10 sec. later. The <=> icon and
frame count will also be displayed
on the LCD panel.
s During the film prewind, the ISO
speed will be displayed on the LCD
panel.

15
=Loading and Unloading Film
• The shutter curtains have been manufactured with very high
precision. Never touch them with your fingers. When loading film,
do not touch or damage the curtains with your fingers or film.
• In hot and humid environments, do not remove the film packaging
until you are ready to load the film.
• Infrared film cannot be used with this camera.

If the film is not loaded properly, the <=> icon will blink on the LCD
panel and the shutter will not work. Reload the film cartridge
properly.

Unloading Film
After the film’s last frame is exposed, the camera rewinds the film
automatically.
After the film is rewound, there will
be a shutter-release sound. Check
that the <=> icon is blinking on the
LCD panel, then open the back
cover and take out the film cartridge.

¢Midroll Rewind
To rewind the film in midroll, follow the procedure below.
Press the <¢> button.
s Film rewind will begin.
• Make sure the <=> icon is
blinking, then take out film
cartridge.

If you take out the film cartridge in midroll without rewinding the film

YFull Auto Mode
All you do is point the camera and press the shutter button.
Everything is automatic so it is easy to photograph any subject. With
seven AF points to focus the subject, anyone can just point and
shoot.

1 Turn the Mode Dial to <Y>.

2 Aim any of the AF points on the

subject.
• The main subject, as determined
by the camera, will be focused by
one of the AF points.
• To focus a subject not covered by
any of the AF points, see “Focus
Lock” on page 29.

 5 Take the picture.
• Compose the shot and press the
shutter button fully.

• If you want to zoom, do it before focusing. Turning the zooming

ring after achieving focus may throw off the focus.
• If the built-in flash’s pop-up operation is obstructed, the <π>
icon will blink on the LCD panel. Press the shutter button halfway
to resolve the problem.

• When focus is achieved, the autofocus and auto exposure setting

will also be locked.
• If the focus confirmation light <n> blinks, the picture cannot be
taken. (p.30)
• Out of the seven AF points, the one covering the closest subject is
selected automatically to achieve focus.
• If multiple AF point marks will light, it means that all of them have
achieved focus at the respective points.
• In the Basic Zone modes (except <I> <P> <S> ), the built-in
flash will pop up and fire automatically in low-light or backlit
conditions. To retract the flash, push it back down.

AF-Assist beam with the Built-in Flash

Under low-light conditions, the built-in flash fires a brief burst of
flashes when you press the shutter button halfway. This is to
illuminate the subject to enable easier autofocusing.

• The AF-assist beam does not function in the <I> <P> <S>
modes.
• The built-in flash’s AF-assist beam is effective up to about 4
meters/13.1 feet.
• In the Creative Zone modes when the built-in flash is popped up
with the <M> button, the AF-assist beam may be emitted.
19
Programmed Image Control Modes
Select a shooting mode to suit the target subject, and the camera
will be set to obtain the best results.

U Portrait
This mode blurs the background to make the
human subject stand out.
• Holding down the shutter button executes
continuous shooting.
• To improve the background blur, use a
telephoto lens and fill the frame with the
subject or have the subject stand farther away
from the background.

I Landscape
This is for wide scenic views, night scenes,
etc.
• Using a wide-angle lens will further enhance
the depth and breadth of the picture.

O Close-up
Use this mode to take close-up shots of
flowers, insects, etc.
• As much as possible, focus the subject at the
lens’ closest focusing distance.
• To obtain a larger magnification, use the
telephoto end of a zoom lens.

A blinking shutter speed indicates that the shutter speed is too slow
to prevent a blurred picture due to camera shake. Be careful to hold
the camera steady and press the shutter button smoothly, or use a
tripod. (The shutter speed indicator still blinks when you use a
tripod, but camera shake will not be a problem.)
20
P Sports
This is for fast-moving subjects when you
want to freeze the action.
• The camera will first track the subject with the
center AF point. Focus tracking will then
continue with any of the seven AF points
covering the subject.
• While you hold down the shutter button,
focusing will continue for continuous shooting.
• Using a telephoto lens and ISO 400 or higher
speed film is recommended.

A Night Portrait
This mode is for taking pictures of people at
twilight or at night. The flash illuminates the
subject while a slow sync speed obtains a
natural-looking exposure of the background.
• If you want to photograph only a night scene
(without people), use the <I> mode
instead.
• Tell the subject to keep still even after the
flash fires.

S Flash off
You can disable the flash when you do not
want it to fire.
• The built-in flash or any external Speedlite will
not fire.

In the <A> mode, use a tripod to prevent camera shake.

21
FUsing Red-eye Reduction (with the built-in flash)
When flash is used in a low-light environment, the subject’s eyes
may come out red in the photograph. To reduce this “Red eye” the
red-eye reduction lamp shines a light into the subject’s eyes before
the flash is fired. Red-eye reduction works in all shooting modes
except <I> <P> <S>.

1 Move the <>> arrow to the

<F> icon on the LCD panel.
• Look at the LCD panel and press
the <\> button to move the
arrow. (∫)

2 on
Turn the <l> dial to set “

”

• Press the shutter button halfway to

return to normal camera operation.
• To cancel red-eye reduction, set
“ ” on the LCD panel.

• When you press the shutter button

halfway, the red-eye reduction lamp-on
indicator will appear in viewfinder and
on the LCD panel.
• Red-eye reduction will not work unless
the subject looks at the red-eye reduction Red-eye reduction
lamp. Tell the subject to look at the lamp. lamp-on indicator
• For maximum effectiveness, press the shutter button fully after the
red-eye reduction lamp turns off (after 1.5 sec.).
• You can take a picture even while the red-eye reduction lamp is lit.
• The effectiveness of red-eye reduction varies depending on the
subject.
• To further increase the effectiveness of red-eye reduction, go to a
brighter environment or move closer to the subject.
22
qSelf-timer Operation
You can use self-timer in any Basic mode or Creative mode. We
recommend using a tripod when you use the self-timer.

1 Press the <^> button.

• While looking at the LCD panel,

• Look through the viewfinder and
press the shutter button fully to
start the self-timer.
s The picture will be taken about 10
sec. later.
First 8 sec.: Self-timer lamp blinks
slowly.
Final 2 sec.: Self-timer lamp blinks
quickly.
s During the self-timer operation, the
LCD panel counts down the
seconds until the picture is taken.

Do not stand in front of the camera when you press the shutter
button to start the self-timer. Doing so prevents the camera from
focusing on the subject.

• To cancel the self-timer after it starts, press the <^> button.

recompose the shot. This is called “focus lock.”

1 Set the camera to a Creative

Zone mode.
• Set a Creative Zone mode except
<Q>.

2 Select the desired AF point.

3 Focus the subject.

• Aim the AF point on the subject,
then press the shutter button
halfway.

4 Keep pressing the shutter

button halfway and recompose
the picture as desired.

5 Take the picture.

• If focus has not been achieved, the focus confirmation light <n>
in the viewfinder will blink. In this case, you cannot take a picture
even when you press the shutter button fully. Recompose the shot
and focus again or see “When Autofocus Fails” (p.30).
• If you use an external, EOS-dedicated Speedlite and focus cannot
be achieved with the AF-assist light, select the center AF point.
• Focus lock also works in the Basic Zone modes (except <P>).
Just start from step 3 above.

29
When Autofocus Fails (Manual Focusing)
Autofocus can fail to achieve focus (the focus confirmation light
<n> blinks) with certain subjects such as the following:

Difficult Subjects for Autofocusing

• Low-contrast subjects.
Example: Blue sky, flat surface with a solid color.
• Subjects in very low light.
• Extremely backlit or reflective subjects.
Example: Automobile with a strong reflection.
• Overlapping near and far objects.
Example: Animal behind bars in a cage.
In such cases, do one of the following:
(1) Focus lock an object at the same distance as the subject and
recompose.
(2) Set the lens focus mode switch to <MF> and focus manually.

? Manual Focusing
1 Set the lens focus mode switch
to <MF>.

2 Focus the subject.

• Focus by turning the lens focusing
ring until the subject is in focus in
the viewfinder.
Focus ring

If you hold down the shutter button halfway while focusing manually,
the active AF point mark and the focus confirmation light <n> will
light when focus is achieved.

HSelecting the Film Advance Mode
Two film advance modes are provided: single-frame and continuous
shooting (Max. 1.5 frames per sec.).
Press the <^> button.
• Look at the LCD panel and press
the <^> button.

Metering Modes
The camera has three metering modes: Evaluative, partial, and
center-weighted average metering.
Evaluative metering
This is the camera’s standard metering mode suited for
most shooting including backlit conditions. Based on the
subject’s position in the viewfinder, brightness, background,
front or back lighting conditions, etc., the camera always
calculates the proper exposure for the subject.
Partial metering
This mode is set automatically when AE lock is used in
a Creative Zone mode. It is effective for backlit subjects
when there is a strong light behind the subject. The
viewfinder center covering about 9.5% of the viewfinder
area is used for metering. The partial metering area is
shown on the left.
Center-weighted average metering
This is set automatically in the <W> mode. The
metering is weighted at the center and then averaged for
the entire scene.

31
T Program AE
Like the <Y> (Full Auto) mode,
this is a general-purpose mode to
make picture-taking easy. It sets the
shutter speed and aperture value
automatically to suit the subject’s
brightness.
∗ <T> stands for Program.
∗ “AE” stands for auto exposure.

1 Turn the Mode Dial to <T>.

 4 Take the picture.
• Compose the shot and press the
shutter button fully.

• If “ ” and the maximum aperture value blink, it

indicates underexposure. Use flash.
• If “ ” and the minimum aperture value blink, it
indicates overexposure. Use an ND filter to reduce
the light entering the lens.

The Difference Between <T> and <Y>

• The shutter speed and aperture value are set in the same way in
both modes.
• The following features can be used in the <T> mode, but not in
the <Y> mode.
· Manual AF point selection · AE lock with the <j> button
· Film advance mode selection · Multiple exposures
· Program shift · Built-in flash manual firing and
· Exposure compensation flash OFF
· AEB · FE lock, high-speed sync
(with EX-series Speedlites)
About Program Shift
• In the Program AE mode, you can freely change the shutter speed
and aperture value combination (program) set by the camera while
retaining the same exposure. This is called program shift.
• To shift the program, press the shutter button halfway and turn the
<l> dial until the desired shutter speed or aperture value is
displayed.
• Program shift is canceled automatically after the picture is taken.
• Program shift cannot be set when the built-in flash is used.
33
R Shutter-Priority AE
In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera sets the
aperture value automatically to suit the subject brightness. A fast
shutter speed can freeze the motion of a fast-moving subject and a
slow shutter speed can blur the subject to give the impression of
motion.
∗ <R> stands for Time value which is the shutter speed.

1 Turn the Mode Dial to <R>.

2 Select

• Turn the <l> dial.

• The shutter speed can be set in
half-stop increments.

3 Focus the subject.

s The aperture value is set
automatically.

4 Check the viewfinder display

and take the picture.
• If the aperture value display is not
blinking, a correct exposure will be
obtained.

• If the maximum aperture value blinks, it indicates

underexposure. Turn the <l> dial to set a
slower shutter speed until the blinking stops.
• If the minimum aperture value blinks, it indicates
overexposure. Turn the <l> dial to set a faster
shutter speed until the blinking stops.

Shutter Speed Display

The shutter speeds from “ ” to “ ” indicate the denominator of
the fractional shutter speed. For example, “ ” indicates 1/125
sec. Also, “ ” indicates 0.7 sec, and “ ” indicates 15 sec.
34
E Aperture-Priority AE
In this mode, you set the desired aperture value and the camera sets
the shutter speed automatically to suit the subject brightness.
The larger or brighter the aperture value (lower f/number) the more
blurred the background will become. This effect is ideal for portraits.
The smaller or darker the aperture value (higher f/number), the clearer
the focus will be for both near and far objects (wider depth of field).
∗ <E> stands for aperture value.

1 Turn the Mode Dial to <E>.

2 Select

• Turn the <l> dial.

• The aperture value can be set in
half-stop increments.

3 Focus the subject.

s The shutter speed is set
automatically.

4 Check the viewfinder display

and take the picture.
• If the shutter speed display does
not blink, a correct exposure will be
obtained.

• If the slowest shutter speed blinks, it indicates

underexposure. In such a case, turn the <l> dial
to set a larger aperture value (smaller f/number)
until the shutter speed display stops blinking.
• If the fastest shutter speed blinks, it indicates
overexposure. In such a case, turn the <l> dial
to set a smaller aperture value (larger f/number)
until the shutter speed display stops blinking.

Aperture Value Display

The larger the f/number, the smaller the diaphragm will be. The
aperture value display will differ depending on the lens. When no lens
is attached to the camera, “ ” will be display for the aperture value.
35
W Manual Exposure
In this mode, you set both the shutter speed and aperture value as
desired. To determine the exposure, refer to the exposure level
indicator in the viewfinder or use a handheld exposure meter. This
method is called manual exposure. In the <W> mode, the
center-weighted average metering will be set automatically.
∗ <W> stands for Manual.

1 Turn the Mode Dial to <W>.

2 Set the shutter speed and

aperture value.
• To set the shutter speed, turn the
<l> dial.
• To set the aperture value, hold
down the <∑> button and turn
the <l> dial.

3 Focus the subject.

The exposure setting will be
s
displayed.
• The exposure level mark <v>
indicates how close the exposure
level is to the correct exposure.

Exposure level mark

4 Determine the exposure.
• Look at the exposure level indicator
and set the shutter speed and
aperture value as desired.

5 Take the picture.

If the exposure level mark <v> blinks at the <o> or <t> level, it
indicates that the difference between the standard exposure
exceeds +/–2 stops.
36
Q Automatic Depth-of-Field AE
This mode is for obtaining a wide depth of field automatically
between a near subject and far subject. It is effective for group
photos and landscapes.
The camera uses the 7 AF points to detect the nearest and farthest
subjects to be in focus.
∗ <Q> stands for Auto-depth of field.

1 Turn the Mode Dial to <Q>.

2 Focus the subject.

• Move the AF point over the subject
and press the shutter button
halfway.
• Focus is achieved at all the AF
point marks that light.

3 Take the picture.

The <Q> mode cannot be used if the lens’ focus mode switch is
set to <MF>.

• If the aperture value blinks, it indicates that the exposure level is

correct but the desired depth of field cannot be achieved. Either
use a wide-angle lens or move further away from the subjects.
• In this shooting mode, you cannot freely change the shutter speed
and aperture value. If the camera sets a slow shutter speed, hold
the camera steady or use a tripod.
• If flash is used, the result will be the same as using flash in the
<T> mode.
37
∑Exposure Compensation
Exposure compensation is used to alter the camera’s standard
exposure setting. You can make the picture look lighter (increased
exposure) or darker (decreased exposure). The exposure
compensation amount can be set up to +/–2 stops in half-stop
increments.

1 Turn the Mode Dial to a Creative

Zone mode except <W>.

2 Check the exposure setting.

• Press the shutter button halfway
and check the display.

3 Set the exposure compensation

amount.
• Hold down the <∑> button and
turn the <l> dial.
• To cancel the exposure
compensation, set the exposure
compensation amount to <~>.
Standard exposure index
4 Take the picture.
Decreased Increased
exposure exposure
Exposure level mark
• The exposure compensation amount set is retained even after the
Mode Dial is set to <:>.
• The exposure compensation amount is canceled automatically
when you turn the Mode Dial to a Basic Zone mode.
• Assuming that a shutter speed of 1/125 sec. and an aperture
value of f/5.6 will give a correct exposure, setting the exposure
compensation amount to plus or minus 1 stop will change the
shutter speed or aperture value as follows:
–1 stop ← 0 → +1 stop
Shutter speed 250 ← 125 → 60
Aperture value 8.0 ← 5.6 → 4.0

38
LAuto Exposure Bracketing (AEB)
With AEB, the camera automatically changes the exposure within the set
range (up to +/–2 stops in 1/2-stop increments) for three successive frames.

taken, the AEB will not be canceled
automatically. To cancel AEB, set
the AEB amount back to “ ”.

• During AEB shooting, the <>> arrow will appear next to the
<L> icon and the AEB level <•> will be displayed. In the
viewfinder, the <j> icon will blink.
• In the <H> film advance mode, the camera stops shooting
automatically after taking the three AEB shots. In the <J> (single
frame) mode, press the shutter button completely three times to
take the three AEB shots.
• If you use the self-timer or remote control, the three AEB shots
will be taken continuously automatically.
• AEB can be combined with exposure compensation.
• AEB cannot be used with flash or bulb exposures.
39
jAE Lock
AE lock enables you to lock the exposure at a different place from
the point of focus. After locking the exposure, you can recompose
the shot while maintaining the desired exposure level. This feature is
useful for backlit and spotlighted subjects. For AE lock, partial
metering is used automatically.

Bulb Exposures
When bulb is set, the shutter is open during the time you keep
pressing the shutter button fully. Bulb exposures are useful when
long exposures are required for night scenes, fireworks,
astronomical photography, etc.

1 Turn the Mode Dial to <W>.

2 Set the shutter speed to “ ”.
• Look at the LCD panel and turn the <l> dial to select “ ”.
•“ ” follows “ ”.

3 Select the desired aperture value.

• Hold down the <∑> button and turn the <l> dial.
4 Start the bulb exposure.
During the bulb exposure, “
s ” blinks on the LCD panel.
• The bulb exposure continues as long as you hold down the
shutter button.
• Remote Controller RC-5 (optional) can also be used for bulb
exposures (p.24). When you press the transmit button, the
exposure will start 2 sec. later. To stop the exposure, press the
button again. (DATE Model only)
• With a new set of batteries, the maximum bulb exposure time (at
20˚C) will be about 4 hours.

<Multiple Exposures
Since the film is not advanced after each shot, you can expose
multiple shots on the same frame. You can expose up to nine shots
on a single frame.

1 Move the <>> arrow to the <<> icon.

3 Take the picture.

After you take all the multiple exposures, the film advances to
s
the next frame automatically and the multiple-exposure setting
is canceled.

If you shoot multiple exposures on the first few or last few frames of
a roll, the multiple exposures might not be precisely aligned due to
the film curling.

• During multiple-exposure shooting, the <>> arrow next to the <<>

icon on the LCD panel will blink.
• To cancel multiple exposures before shooting, set the number of multiple
exposures to “ ”.
• To cancel multiple exposures after shooting, follow steps 1 and 2 to
set the number of multiple exposures to blank.

D Setting the ISO Film Speed

If the film is not DX-coded or if you want to set a different film
speed, load the film in the camera and set the film speed manually
as follows. The settable film speed range is ISO 6 to 6400.

1 Move the <>> arrow to the

<D> icon.
• Look at the LCD panel and press
the <\> button to move the
arrow. (∫)
s The current film speed is displayed.

Using the Built-in Flash
In a Basic Zone Mode
In low-light or backlit conditions, the built-in flash will pop up and fire
automatically (except in <I> <P> <S> modes).

In a Creative Zone Mode

Press the <M> button to pop up the built-in flash.
T : Use this mode for automatic flash photography. The flash
sync speed (1/90 sec.) and aperture value will be set
automatically as with the <Y> (Full Auto) mode.
R : Use this mode if you want to set the flash sync speed
manually (within 30 sec. - 1/90 sec.). The camera will set
the flash aperture value automatically to obtain a correct
flash exposure.
E : Use this mode if you want to set the flash aperture value.
The camera will set the flash sync speed (within 30 sec. -
1/90 sec.) automatically to obtain the best exposure for the
aperture you set. For portraits with a night scene or dark
background, a slow sync speed will be set to obtain a
proper exposure for both the subject and background. The
flash illuminates the subject, while the background is
properly exposed with a slow shutter speed.
• Because automatic slow-sync shooting uses a slow
shutter speed, always use a tripod.
W : You can manually set both the flash sync speed (within
Bulb - 1/90 sec.) and aperture value. The subject is properly
exposed with the flash and the background is exposed with
the flash sync speed and aperture value you have set.
Q : The result will be the same as using the <T> mode.

• When using the built-in flash, stay at least 1 meter/3.3 feet away
from the subject. Otherwise, part of the photo will look dark.
• When using the built-in flash, detach any hood attached to the
lens. A lens hood will partially obstruct the flash coverage.
• When a super telephoto lens or a fast, large-aperture lens is
attached, the built-in flash coverage might be obstructed.
• The built-in flash’s flash coverage is 28mm lens angle.
• If you use a flash unit (with multiple contacts) dedicated to another
camera brand or a high-voltage flash, the camera may not work
properly or malfunction may result.

• To retract the built-in flash, push it down.

• If more light is required, use an external, EOS-dedicated Speedlite
(optional).
