Handling Precautions
Camera 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.
To maximize the camera's dust- and drip- resistance, keep the terminal cover, battery
compartment cover, card slot cover, and all other covers firmly closed. Also attach the
shoe cover to the multi-function shoe.
This camera is designed to be dust- and drip- resistant, in order to help prevent sand,
dust, dirt, or water that falls on it unexpectedly from getting inside, but it is impossible to
prevent dirt, dust, water, or salt from getting inside at all. As far as possible, do not allow
dirt, dust, water, or salt to get on the camera.
If water gets on the camera, wipe it off with a dry and clean cloth. If dirt, dust, or salt gets
on the camera, wipe it off with a clean, well-wrung wet cloth.
Using the camera in dusty or dirty locations may lead to damage.
Cleaning the camera after use is recommended. Allowing dirt, dust, water, or salt to
remain on the camera may cause a malfunction.
If you accidentally drop the camera into water or are concerned that moisture (water),
dirt, dust, or salt may have gotten inside it, promptly consult the nearest Canon Service
Center.
Never leave the camera near anything having a strong magnetic field such as a magnet
or electric motor. Also, avoid using or leaving the camera near anything emitting strong
radio waves, such as a large antenna. Strong magnetic fields can cause camera
malfunction or destroy image data.
Do not leave the camera in excessive heat, such as in a car in direct sunlight. High
temperatures can cause the camera to malfunction.
The camera contains precision electronic circuitry. Never attempt to disassemble the
camera yourself.
Do not block shutter curtain operation with your finger or other objects. Doing so may
cause a malfunction.
Only use a commercially available blower to blow away dust on the lens, viewfinder, or
other parts. Do not use cleaners that contain organic solvents to clean the camera body
or lens. For stubborn dirt, take the camera to the nearest Canon Service Center.
Do not touch the camera's electrical contacts with your fingers. This is to prevent the
contacts from corroding. Corroded contacts can cause camera malfunction.
If the camera is suddenly brought in from the cold into a warm room, condensation may
form on the camera and internal parts. To prevent condensation, first put the camera in
a sealed plastic bag and let it adjust to the warmer temperature before taking it out of
the bag.
If condensation forms on the camera, to avoid damage, do not use the camera or
remove the lens, card, or battery. Turn the camera off and wait until the moisture has
fully evaporated before resuming use. Even after the camera is completely dry, if it is still
internally cold, do not remove the lens, card, or battery until the camera has adjusted to
the ambient temperature.
If the camera will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery and store the
camera in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location. Even while the camera is in storage,
press the shutter button a few times once in a while to check that the camera is still
working.
28
background
Avoid storing the camera where there are chemicals that result in rust and corrosion
such as in a chemical lab.
If the camera has not been used for an extended period, test all its functions before
using it. If you have not used the camera for some time or if there is an important shoot
such as a foreign trip coming up, have the camera checked by your nearest Canon
Service Center or check the camera yourself and make sure it is working properly.
The camera may become hot after repeated continuous shooting or still photo/movie
shooting over an extended period. This is not a malfunction.
If there is a bright light source inside or outside the image area, ghosting may occur.
When shooting with backlighting, keep the sun sufficiently away from the angle of view.
Always keep intense light sources such as the sun, lasers, and other intense artificial
light sources out of the image area and not near it. Concentrated intense light may
cause smoke or damage the image sensor or other internal components.
Attach the lens cap to prevent direct sunlight and other light from entering the lens when
you are not shooting.
Screen and viewfinder, LCD panel
The following does not affect images captured by the camera.
Although the screen and viewfinder are manufactured with very high precision
technology with over 99.99% effective pixels, 0.01% or fewer of the pixels may be dead,
and there may also be spots of black, red, or other colors. This is not a malfunction.
They do not affect the images recorded.
If the screen is left on for a prolonged period, screen burn-in may occur where you see
remnants of what was displayed. However, this is only temporary and will disappear
when the camera is left unused for a few days.
The screen display may seem slightly slow in low temperatures or may look black in
high temperatures. It will return to normal at room temperature.
Cards
To protect the card and its recorded data, note the following:
Do not drop, bend, or wet the card. Do not subject it to excessive force, physical shock,
or vibration.
Keep card contacts free of dust and foreign material. Do not touch card contacts with
your fingers or metal objects.
Do not affix any stickers, etc. on the card.
Do not store or use the card near anything that has a strong magnetic field, such as a
television, speakers, or magnets. Also avoid places prone to having static electricity.
Do not leave the card in direct sunlight or near a heat source.
Store the card in a case.
Do not store the card in hot, dusty, or humid locations.
Cards may become hot after long sessions of repeated continuous shooting or still photo
shooting/movie recording. This is not a malfunction.
29
background
Lens
After detaching the lens from the camera, put down the lens with the rear end up and
attach the rear lens cap to avoid scratching the lens surface and electrical contacts
(1).
Smudges on the image sensor
Besides dust entering the camera from outside, in rare cases, lubricant from the camera's
internal parts may adhere to the front of the sensor. If smudges are visible on images, have
the sensor cleaned by a nearest Canon Service Center.
Battery
Tips for using the battery and charger
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location.
When storing the battery for extended periods, charge it about once a year. When
charging the battery, aim to charge it to approx. 50% instead of fully charging it ( ).
At room temperature (23°C/73°F), it takes approx. 60 min. to charge a depleted battery
to about approx. 50%. Battery charging time varies greatly depending on ambient
temperature.
If the battery is not used for an extended period, the trace amount of current that
continues to flow inside the battery when it is removed from the camera may eventually
lead to over-discharge and prevent further use, even after charging.

Charging a depleted battery takes approx. 3 hr. at room temperature (23°C/73°F).
The time required to charge the battery will vary greatly depending on the ambient
temperature and the battery's remaining capacity.
For safety, charging in low temperatures (5–10°C/41–50°F) takes longer (up to approx.
4 hr.).
Upon purchase, the battery is not fully charged.
Charge the battery before use.
Charge the battery on the day before or on the day it is to be used.
Charged batteries gradually lose their charge, even when they are not used.
After charging the battery, remove it and disconnect the charger from the power
outlet.
You can attach the protective cover in a different orientation to indicate whether
the battery is charged or not.
If the battery is charged, attach the provided protective cover so that the battery-shaped
hole < > is aligned over the blue sticker on the battery. If the battery is exhausted,
attach the protective cover in the opposite orientation.
When not using the camera, remove the battery.
If the battery is left in the camera for a prolonged period, a small amount of power
current will keep being released, resulting in excess discharge and shorter battery life.
Store the battery with the protective cover attached. Storing the battery when it is fully
charged may lower the battery performance.
The battery charger can also be used in foreign countries.
The battery charger is compatible with a 100 V AC to 240 V AC 50/60 Hz power source.
If necessary, attach a commercially available plug adapter for the respective country or
region. To avoid damage, do not connect to portable voltage transformers.
If the battery becomes exhausted quickly even after having been fully charged,
the battery has reached the end of its service life.
Check the battery's recharge performance (
) and purchase a new battery.
Caution
After disconnecting the charger's power plug, do not touch the prongs for approx.
10 sec.
If the battery's remaining capacity ( ) is 94% or higher, the battery will not be
charged.
The provided charger cannot charge any battery other than Battery Pack LP-E6P/
LP-E6NH/LP-E6N/LP-E6.

Using Eye Control
Performing Calibration
Using Eye Control for AF
Configuring Pointer Display
Managing Calibration Data
You can control focusing by looking at AF points to select them in viewfinder shooting (eye
control).
Caution
Eye control is only available in still photo shooting.
Performing Calibration
The process of registering characteristics of your line of sight for accurate detection of eye
movement by the camera in viewfinder shooting is called calibration. Calibration enables
higher eye control accuracy.
Points to know before calibration
Be aware of the following points before calibration.
It may not be possible to detect your line of sight if you are squinting. If so, open your
eye or eyes wider as you look at the viewfinder.
It may not be possible to detect your line of sight if your eye is too close to the
viewfinder. If so, keep your eye a little farther from the viewfinder. Using Eyecup ER-kE
(sold separately) makes it easier to detect your line of sight.
During calibration, keep looking at indicators until they disappear completely.
Eye control may be less accurate if your eye is off-center, relative to the viewfinder.
Adjust how you are holding the camera to your face, so that the four corners of the
screen appear evenly spaced.
Eye control may be less accurate if you point the camera downward during calibration.
Hold the camera straight when performing calibration.
Note
Also read General eye control precautions and Enhancing eye control accuracy.
84
background

6.
Perform calibration for vertical shooting.
For higher eye control accuracy, select [Refine] and perform calibration
for vertical shooting.
Holding the camera vertically, look through the viewfinder so that the
four corners of the screen appear evenly spaced, then repeat step 5.
If you will also shoot vertically with the camera grip facing the other
direction, perform calibration while holding the camera that way.
To finish calibration after performing calibration only for horizontal
shooting, go to step 7.
7.
Exit calibration.
Select [Exit]. Calibration results (calibration data) are saved to the
calibration number shown in step 2.
8.
Verify pointer movement.
After calibration, look through the viewfinder and make sure the pointer
moves in response (
). If the pointer does not seem to follow your
gaze closely, perform calibration again.

A pointer (1) is displayed when you look through the viewfinder.
After the subject set in [ : Subject to detect] is detected, a tracking
frame [
] (2) is also displayed.
Look at the position where you wish to focus.
The pointer may stop moving unless the camera can follow your eye
movement. If so, hold the camera away from your face for a moment,
then look through the viewfinder again so that the four corners of the
screen appear evenly spaced.
91
background
2.
Confirm the subject to start focusing.
Pressing the shutter button halfway confirms the subject to focus on.
With [ : AF area] set to [Whole area AF], the camera focuses in the
area near the pointer.
With the AF area set to an option other than [Whole area AF], the
camera focuses after moving the AF area near the pointer.
With [
: AF operation] set to [ ]
The active AF point (3) is displayed in blue.
As long as you hold down the shutter button halfway, the camera keeps
tracking and focusing on the confirmed subject, so there's no need for
you to keep following it with your eye.
To switch to another subject to track, first stop tracking the confirmed
subject by pressing <
>, then look at the new subject and hold down
the shutter button halfway.
With [ : AF area] set to [Whole area AF], the camera keeps
tracking and focusing on confirmed subjects even when you release
the shutter button after holding it down halfway. To stop tracking
confirmed subjects, press <
>.
92

background
General eye control precautions
When multiple people will use eye control on the same camera, each person should
select a different calibration number and perform calibration. Similarly, when the same
person will use eye control with and without glasses or contact lenses, a different
calibration number should be selected and calibration performed for each situation.
When using Eyecup ER-kE (sold separately), select a different calibration number and
perform calibration.
Keep your eye steady relative to the camera, with sunlight or other light blocked out and
the four corners of the screen appearing evenly spaced.
Calibration or eye control may not be possible in the following cases.
When hard contact lenses are worn
When color contact lenses are worn
When you have had eye surgery or other medical treatment
When special eyewear is worn, such as near-infrared blocking, mirrored, or bifocal
glasses or sunglasses
When a mask is worn
When your eye is too far from the viewfinder
When your eye is too close to the viewfinder
When your eye is too misaligned with the viewfinder
When the viewfinder or your eyewear is dirty
When the viewfinder is fogged up
When your contact lenses are not fully in contact with your eyes
When sunlight is shining directly into the viewfinder
Less responsive viewfinder display under low light may make eye control more difficult
to use.
95
background
Enhancing eye control accuracy
The camera can learn about eye characteristics from the calibration data it collects.
Eye control accuracy can be improved by repeating calibration under various levels of
brightness (such as indoors, outdoors, during the day, and at night) for the same
calibration number.
To use eye control in each camera orientation, repeat calibration for the same
calibration number with the camera held horizontally and vertically with the grip up and
down.
Keep the following tips in mind when performing calibration or using eye control.
Look into the viewfinder so that the four corners of the screen appear evenly
spaced.
Look at the subject.
Avoid squinting.
Avoid blinking.
During calibration, look through the viewfinder as you do when shooting.
If you use glasses, wear them correctly.
In calibration outdoors, prevent sunlight from entering the viewfinder.
Use Eyecup ER-kE (sold separately, ).
Block out sunlight, to the extent possible, by keeping your face close to the
viewfinder.
If it is difficult to perform calibration or eye control correctly, try keeping both eyes
open as you look through the viewfinder.
Eye control accuracy can also be improved with the data collected from repeated
calibration (2–3 times) for the same calibration number even under the same brightness
and with the camera in the same position.

A+: Fully Automatic Shooting (Scene Intelligent
Auto)
[ ] is a fully automatic mode. The camera analyzes the scene and sets the optimum
settings automatically. It can also adjust focus automatically on either the still or moving
subject by detecting the motion of the subject.
1.
Set the shooting mode to [ ].
Press the < > button, then turn the < > dial to select [ ].
2.
Aim the camera at what you will shoot (the subject).
A tracking frame (1) may be displayed on the subject, under some
shooting conditions.
133
background
3.
Focus on the subject.
Press the shutter button halfway to focus.
You can also focus by tapping a person's face or other subject on the
screen (Touch AF).
Under low light, the AF-assist beam ( ) is automatically activated if
needed.
Once the subject is in focus, that AF point turns green and the camera
beeps (One-Shot AF).
An AF point in focus on a moving subject turns blue and tracks subject
movement (Servo AF).
4.
Take the picture.
Press the shutter button completely to take the picture.
The image just captured will be displayed for approx. 2 sec. on the
screen.
Caution
Subject movement (whether subjects are still or moving) may not be detected
correctly for some subject or shooting conditions.
134
background
Note
AF operation (One-Shot AF or Servo AF) is set automatically when you press the
shutter button halfway.
[ ] mode makes the colors look more impressive in nature, outdoor, and sunset
scenes. If you prefer other color tones, set the shooting mode to [Fv], [P], [Tv],
[Av], or [M] and select a Picture Style other than [
] before shooting ( ).

Minimizing blurred photos
Be careful about camera shake in handheld shots. To avoid camera shake, consider
using a tripod. Use a sturdy tripod that can bear the weight of the shooting equipment.
Attach the camera securely to the tripod.
Using a remote switch (sold separately, ) or a wireless remote control (sold
separately,
) is recommended.
FAQ
Focusing is not possible (indicated by an orange AF point).
Aim the AF point over an area with good contrast, then press the shutter button halfway
( ). If you are too close to the subject, move away and shoot again.
After focusing, multiple AF points are displayed simultaneously.
Focus has been achieved at all those points.
The shutter speed display is blinking.
Since it is too dark, taking the picture may result in a blurred subject due to camera
shake. Using a tripod or a Canon EL/EX series Speedlite (sold separately, ) is
recommended.
The bottom of pictures taken with flash is unnaturally dark.
If a hood is attached to the lens, it may obstruct light from the flash. If the subject is
close, detach the hood before taking the picture with flash.
Note
Note the following if you are not using flash.
Under low light, when camera shake tends to occur, hold the camera steady or
use a tripod. When using a zoom lens, you can reduce the blur caused by
camera shake by setting the lens to the wide-angle end.
When shooting portraits under low light, tell subjects to stay still until you have
finished shooting. Any movement as you shoot will make the person look blurry
in the picture.

light entering the lens.
Note
Differences between [P] and [ ] modes
[ ] mode limits available functions and sets the AF area, metering mode, and
many other functions automatically to prevent bad shots. In contrast, [P] mode only
sets the shutter speed and aperture value automatically, and you can freely set the
AF area, metering mode, and other functions.

RAW Images
RAW images are raw data from the image sensor in a digital form.
Compared to image files, offers smaller file sizes.
To process RAW images and save them as JPEG or HEIF images, you can use [ : RAW
image processing] ( ) or Digital Photo Professional (EOS software).
For details on Digital Photo Professional, refer to the Digital Photo Professional instruction
manual.
Note
To view RAW images on a computer, consider using Digital Photo Professional
(DPP).
RAW images from this camera cannot be used with older versions of DPP.
Download the latest version of DPP from the Canon website and install it, which will
overwrite the previous version ( ).
Commercially available software may not be able to display RAW images captured
by this camera. For compatibility information, contact the software manufacturer.

Maximum Burst for Continuous Shooting
The approximate maximum burst is displayed at the upper left of the shooting screen and
lower right of the viewfinder.
Note
If the maximum burst is displayed as “99”, it indicates that you can shoot 99 or
more shots continuously. Fewer shots are available for a value of 98 or lower, and
when [BUSY] is displayed on the screen, internal memory is full and shooting will
stop temporarily. If you stop continuous shooting, the maximum burst will increase.
After all captured images have been written to a card, you can once again shoot at
the maximum burst listed in

ISO speed guide
Low ISO speeds reduce image noise but may increase the risk of camera/subject shake
or reduce the area in focus (shallower depth of field), in some shooting conditions.
High ISO speeds enable low-light shooting, a larger area in focus (deeper depth of field),
and longer flash range but may increase image noise.
Note
ISO speed can also be set with the < > button by pressing the < > button
to select the ISO speed item while an image is displayed.
Can also be set on the [ISO speed] screen in [ : ISO speed settings].
To expand the available ISO speed range from L (equivalent to ISO 50) to H
(equivalent to ISO 102400), adjust [ISO speed range] in [
: ISO speed
settings] ( ).
Caution
Image noise (dots of light or banding) and irregular colors may increase and
apparent resolution may decrease at H (equivalent to ISO 102400), because this is
an expanded ISO speed.
Because L (equivalent to ISO 50) is an expanded ISO speed setting, the dynamic
range will be somewhat narrower compared to the standard setting.
When shooting with a high ISO speed, high temperature, long exposure, or multiple
exposure, image noise (graininess, dots of light, banding, etc.), irregular colors, or
color shift may become noticeable.
When shooting in conditions that produce an extreme amount of noise, such as a
combination of high ISO speed, high temperature, and long exposure, images may
not be recorded properly.
If you use a high ISO speed and flash to shoot a close subject, overexposure may
result.

[Anti-flicker shoot.]
When [Enable] is set and you shoot under a flickering light source, the shutter-
release time lag may become longer.
Flicker at a frequency other than 100 Hz or 120 Hz cannot be detected. Also, if the
flickering frequency of the light source changes during continuous shooting, effects
of the flicker cannot be reduced.
In [Fv], [P], or [Av] mode, color tone of captured images may vary if the shutter
speed changes during continuous shooting or if you take multiple shots of the same
scene at different shutter speeds. To avoid inconsistent color tone, shoot in [Fv],
[Tv], or [M] mode at a fixed shutter speed.
Color tone of captured images may vary between [Enable] and [Disable].
Shutter speed, aperture value, and ISO speed may change when you start
shooting with AE lock.
If the subject is against a dark background or if there is a bright light in the image,
flicker may not be properly detected.
Flicker reduction may not be possible under special lighting.

Shutter synchronization
Normally, set this to [First-curtain synchronization] so that the flash fires immediately after
the shooting starts.
Set to [Second-curtain synchronization] and use low shutter speeds for natural-looking
shots of subject motion trails, such as car headlights.
Set to [High-speed synchronization] for flash photography at higher shutter speeds than
the maximum flash sync shutter speed. This is effective when shooting with an open
aperture in [Av] mode to blur the background behind subjects outdoors in daylight, for
example.
Caution
When using second-curtain synchronization, set the shutter speed to 1/30 sec. or
slower. If the shutter speed is 1/40 sec. or faster, first-curtain synchronization will
be applied automatically even if [Second-curtain synchronization] is set.
Shutter speed is set to 1/8000 when [ : Shutter mode] is [Electronic ] and
[High-speed synchronization] is selected with a shutter speed of 1/8000 sec. or
faster.
Flash exposure compensation
Just as exposure compensation is adjustable, you can also adjust flash output.

Peripheral Illumination Correction
Vignetting (dark image corners) can be corrected.
Caution
Depending on shooting conditions, noise may appear on the image periphery.
The higher the ISO speed, the lower the amount of correction will be.
Note
The amount of correction applied will be lower than the maximum correction
amount applied with Digital Photo Professional (EOS software).
Peripheral illumination is corrected automatically in [ ] mode when correction
data is registered on the camera.
254
background
Distortion Correction
Distortion (image warping) can be corrected.
Caution
To correct distortion, the camera captures a narrower image area than the area
seen in viewfinder shooting, which crops the image a little and slightly lowers the
apparent resolution.
Applying distortion correction may change the angle of view slightly.
The amount of image cropped may vary between still photos and movies.
Note
With RF lenses, distortion correction during movie recording is supported.
255
background
Focus Breathing Correction
Angle of view fluctuations from changes in focal position during movie recording can be
reduced.
This feature can be configured when [Distortion correction] is set to [Enable].
Caution
[Focus breathing correction] is not displayed in still photo shooting.
Applying focus breathing correction will narrow the angle of view. The extent of
narrowing depends on shooting conditions.
Test focus breathing correction before use, because the image processing may
affect apparent image resolution and noise.
Optimal correction is applied based on the position of the focusing distance range
switch on the lens. (The correction is also applied in MF mode.) Focus breathing
correction is not applied to any difference between the actual focusing distance and
the range of the switch.
Movies with abrupt changes to the angle of view may be recorded if you move the
focusing distance range switch during recording.
Correction artifacts may occur, depending on the lens and shooting conditions.
For details on lenses compatible with this feature, visit the Canon website ( ).
256
background
Digital Lens Optimizer
Various aberrations from lens optical characteristics can be corrected, along with diffraction
and low-pass filter-induced loss of resolution.
If [Correction data not available] or [
] is displayed by [Digital Lens Optimizer], you can
use EOS Utility to add the lens correction data to the camera. For details, refer to the EOS
Utility Instruction Manual.
Caution
Image processing after you shoot takes longer when set to [High] (which causes
the access lamp to be illuminated longer).
Maximum burst is lower with [High]. Image recording to the card also takes longer.
Depending on shooting conditions, noise may be intensified together with the
effects of correction. Image edges may also be emphasized. Adjust Picture Style
sharpness or set [Digital Lens Optimizer] to [Disable] as needed before shooting.
The higher the ISO speed, the lower the amount of correction will be.
For movie recording, [Digital Lens Optimizer] will not appear. (Correction is not
possible.)
The effect of Digital Lens Optimizer cannot be checked on the screen at the time of
shooting.
Note
With [Digital Lens Optimizer] set to [Standard] or [High], [Chromatic aberr corr]
and [Diffraction correction] are not displayed, but they are both set to [Enable] for

Chromatic Aberration Correction
Chromatic aberration (color fringing around subjects) can be corrected.
Note
[Chromatic aberr corr] is not displayed when [Digital Lens Optimizer] is set to
[Standard] or [High].
258
background
Diffraction Correction
Diffraction (loss of sharpness caused by the aperture) can be corrected.
Caution
Depending on shooting conditions, noise may be intensified together with the
effects of correction.
The higher the ISO speed, the lower the amount of correction will be.
Note
“Diffraction correction” corrects degraded resolution not only from diffraction but
also from the low-pass filter and other factors. Thus, correction is also effective for
exposures with the aperture wide open.
[Diffraction correction] is not displayed when [Digital Lens Optimizer] is set to
[Standard] or [High].
Caution
General precautions for lens aberration correction
Lens aberration correction cannot be applied to existing JPEG/HEIF images.
When using a non-Canon lens, setting the corrections to [Disable] is
recommended even if [Correction data available] is displayed.
Magnifying the periphery of the image may display parts of the image that will not
be recorded.
The amount of correction (except diffraction correction) is less for lenses that do

Note
General notes for lens aberration correction
Effects of lens aberration correction vary by lens and shooting conditions. Also, the
effect may be difficult to discern depending on the lens used, shooting conditions,
etc.
If the correction is difficult to discern, magnifying and checking the image after
shooting is recommended.
Corrections are applied even when an extender or life-size converter is attached.
If the correction data for the attached lens is not registered to the camera, the result
will be the same as when the correction is set to [Disable] (except for diffraction
correction).
If necessary, refer to the EOS Utility Instruction Manual as well.

Long Exposure Noise Reduction
Noise such as dots of light or banding that tends to occur in long exposures at shutter
speeds of one sec. or slower can be reduced.
1.
Select [ : Long exp. noise reduction] ( ).
2.
Set a reduction option.
Auto
For images exposed for 1 sec. or longer, noise reduction is performed
automatically if noise typical of long exposures is detected. This setting
is effective enough in most cases.
Enable
Noise reduction is performed for all images exposed for 1 sec. or
longer. The [Enable] setting may reduce noise that cannot be detected
with the [Auto] setting.
Caution
With [Auto] or [Enable] set, noise reduction after you shoot may take as long as
exposure for the shot.
Images may look grainier with the [Enable] setting than with the [Disable] or [Auto]
setting.
[BUSY] is displayed as noise is reduced, and the shooting screen is not displayed
until processing is finished, when you can shoot again.
261

High ISO Speed Noise Reduction
You can reduce the image noise generated. This function is especially effective when
shooting at high ISO speeds. When shooting at low ISO speeds, the noise in the darker
parts of the image (shadow areas) can further be reduced.
1.
Select [ : High ISO speed NR] ( , ).
2.
Set the level.
Low / Standard / High
The camera applies an amount of noise reduction corresponding to
your specified level.

Dust Delete Data Acquisition
Preparation
Dust Delete Data Appending
Dust Delete Data used to erase dust spots can be appended to images in case sensor
cleaning leaves dust on the sensor. The Dust Delete Data is used by Digital Photo
Professional (EOS software) to erase the dust spots automatically.
Preparation
Use an RF or EF lens.
Prepare a solid white object such as a sheet of paper.
Set the lens focal length to 50 mm or longer.
Set the lens's focus mode switch to < > and set the focus to infinity (∞). If the lens
has no distance scale, rotate the camera to face toward you and turn the focusing ring
clockwise all the way.
1.
Select [ : Dust Delete Data] ( ).
263
background
2.
Select [OK].
After the automatic self-cleaning of the image sensor is performed, a
message will appear. Although there will be a mechanical sound of the
shutter during the cleaning, no picture is taken.
264
background
3.
Shoot a plain white object.
Shoot with a plain white object (such as a new sheet of white paper)
filling the screen, at a distance of 20–30 cm (0.7–1.0 ft.).
Since the image will not be saved, the data can still be obtained even if
there is no card in the camera.
When the picture is taken, the camera will start collecting the Dust
Delete Data. When the Dust Delete Data is obtained, a message will
appear.
If the data is not obtained successfully, an error message will appear.
Check the information in Preparation, select [OK], and shoot again.
265
background
Dust Delete Data Appending
The camera will append the Dust Delete Data obtained to all shots from now on. Acquiring
Dust Delete Data immediately before shooting is recommended.
For details about using Digital Photo Professional (EOS software) to erase dust spots
automatically, refer to the Digital Photo Professional Instruction Manual.
File size is essentially unaffected by Dust Delete Data appended to images.
Caution
Dust Delete Data is not obtained when RF-S/EF-S lenses are used, or when [ :
Cropping/aspect ratio] is set to [1.6x (crop)].
Dust Delete Data is not added to images when [Distortion correction] is set to
[Enable].
If the object has any pattern or design, it may be recognized as dust data and affect
the accuracy of the dust deletion with the Digital Photo Professional (EOS
software).

FAQ
Are there any restrictions on the image quality?
Multiple exposures are captured as JPEG [
] images. Even when [ : Img type/
size] is set to RAW only, these images are captured as JPEG [
] images.
Can I merge images recorded on the card?
With [Select image for multi. expo.], you can select the first single exposure from the
images recorded on the card ( ). Note that you cannot merge multiple images already
recorded on the card.
How are multiple-exposure files numbered?
With the camera set to save all images, multiple-exposure image files are named with
the next number after the number of the last single exposure used to create them.
Will auto power off take effect during multiple-exposure shooting?
During multiple-exposure shooting, auto power off will not take effect. Note that before
you start multiple-exposure shooting, auto power off automatically takes effect at the
time set in the [Auto power off] option of [ : Power saving], which will cancel multiple-
exposure shooting.
275
background
Focus Bracketing
Focus bracketing enables continuous shooting with the focal distance changed automatically
after each shot. These images enable you to create a single image in focus over a deep
depth of field. Compositing is also possible using an application that supports depth
compositing, such as Digital Photo Professional (EOS software).
1.
Select [ : Focus bracketing] ( ).
2.
Set [Focus bracketing].
Select [Enable].
3.
Set [Number of shots].
Specify the number of images captured per shot.
Can be set in a range of [2]–[999].
276
background
4.
Set [Focus increment].
Specify how much to shift the focus. This amount is automatically
adjusted to suit the aperture value at the time of shooting.
Larger aperture values increase the focus shift and make focus
bracketing cover a wider range under the same focus increment and
number of shots.
After completing the settings, press < >.
5.
Set [Exposure smoothing].
You can compensate for changes in image brightness during focus
bracketing by selecting [Enable], so that the camera makes
adjustments based on differences between the displayed and actual
aperture value (effective f/number), which varies by focal position.
Select [Disable] if you prefer not to compensate for changes in image
brightness during focus bracketing. Use this option for purposes other
than depth compositing of the captured images in applications such as
DPP.
277
background
6.
Set [Depth composite].
Select [Enable] for in-camera depth compositing. Both the depth-
composited image and the source images are saved.
Select [Disable] if you prefer not to perform in-camera depth
compositing. Only captured images are saved.
7.
Set [Crop depth comp.].
Select [Enable] for cropping before compositing, to prepare any
images without a sufficient angle of view for compositing alignment by
cropping them to correct the angle of view.
Select [Disable] if you prefer not to crop these images. In this case,
areas without a sufficient angle of view are covered by a black border
in the saved images. You can crop the images manually or edit them
as needed.
278
background
8.
Set [Flash interval].
Focus bracketing is available with compatible Speedlites, and with non-
Canon flash units fired via the sync terminal.
When set to [0], compatible Speedlites fire and the camera shoots as
soon as the Speedlites are fully charged. Refer to the instruction
manual of compatible Speedlites for precautions on continuous firing.
Consider setting a longer interval when using multiple compatible
Speedlites in wireless flash photography.
With non-Canon flash units, set a suitable interval time for the flash
recharging time and durability. Also refer to Non-Canon Flash Units.
9.
Take the picture.
To save your shots in a new folder, tap [ ] and select [OK].
Focus at the nearer end of your preferred focal range, then press the
shutter button completely.
Once shooting begins, release the shutter button.
The camera shoots continuously, shifting the focal position toward
infinity.
Shooting ends after your specified number of images, or at the far end
of the focal range.
To cancel shooting, press the shutter button completely again.
279
background
Caution
For best results, shoot subjects that are not moving. Using a tripod, remote switch
(sold separately, ), or wireless remote control (sold separately, ) is
recommended.
Shooting with a wider angle of view is recommended. After depth compositing, you
can crop the image if necessary.
For details on lenses and flash units compatible with this feature, visit the Canon
website (
).
Suitable [Focus increment] settings vary by subject. An unsuitable [Focus
increment] setting may cause unevenness in composite images, or shooting may
take more time because more shots are taken. Take some test shots to decide a
suitable [Focus increment] setting.
Shooting under flickering light may cause uneven images. In this case, lowering the
shutter speed may give better results.
Focus bracketing is not available when the camera is set to manual focus ( ).
Canceling shooting in progress may cause exposure problems in the last image.
Avoid using the last image when combining the images in Digital Photo
Professional.
Maximum shutter speed with focus bracketing is 1/8000 sec.
Flash sync shutter speed in focus bracketing is 1/125 sec. (for [Full-frame]) or
1/200 sec. (for [1.6x (crop)]).
Depth compositing is canceled if you open the battery compartment or card slot
cover, or if the remaining battery capacity becomes too low. After cancellation,
composited images are not saved.
Depth compositing may fail for patterned images (with a lattice or stripes, for
example) or images that are generally flat and uniform.
When taking several shots, start by focusing closer, then gradually focus farther
away.
Too great a distance when moving the focal position between multiple shots may
cause unevenness in depth-composited images, or it may cause compositing to
fail.
Depth compositing is intended for subjects that are not moving. For this reason,
shooting subjects in motion may prevent effective compositing.
Depth compositing of images with multiple subjects may fail if your shots are
composed with the subjects far apart from each other, for example.
To cancel depth compositing in progress, press the < > button. Cancellation
discards the composited image but keeps all source images.
In depth compositing, optimal images from the shots are selected and combined by
the camera. Not all of the shots are combined to create the composite image.
Note
For best results, set the aperture value in a range of f/5.6–11 before shooting.
Details such as shutter speed, aperture value, and ISO speed are determined by
conditions for the first shot.
[ : Focus bracketing] reverts to [Disable] when the power switch is set to

The number of shots available may not match the number displayed.
Subjects may be out of focus if there are sudden changes in the distance between
subjects and the camera while you are pressing the shutter button halfway.
Images may not be captured correctly when you use pre-continuous shooting with
a low battery.
Shutter speeds slower than [0"5] (0.5 sec.) are not available.
In [M] mode, consider shooting with ISO Auto.
With variable maximum aperture zoom lenses, exposure may change if you zoom
while pressing the shutter button halfway or completely.
Even with constant maximum aperture zoom lenses, exposure may change if you
zoom while pressing the shutter button halfway or completely. For details, refer to
the Canon website ( ).
Note
The electronic shutter is used in shooting.

Note
Using a tripod is recommended.
Taking test shots in advance is recommended.
Even during interval timer shooting, you can still shoot as usual by pressing the
shutter button completely. Note that the camera will prepare for the next interval
timer shot approx. 5 sec. in advance, which will temporarily prevent operations
such as adjusting shooting settings, accessing menus, and playing back images.
If the next scheduled interval timer shot is not possible because the camera is
shooting or processing images, it will be skipped. For this reason, fewer shots than
specified will be taken.
Even during interval timer operation, auto power off is triggered after approx. 8 sec.
of inactivity, as long as [Auto power off] under [
: Power saving] is not set to
[Disable].
Can also be combined with AEB, white balance bracketing, and multiple
exposures.
To stop interval timer shooting, select [Disable] or set the power switch to

286
background
Caution
Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun or an
intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the
camera's internal components.
In < > focus mode, the camera will not shoot unless subjects are in focus.
Consider setting the mode to manual focus and focusing manually before shooting.
If the shooting time is long, using the household power outlet accessories (sold
separately) is recommended.
Shooting long exposures or using shutter speeds longer than the shooting interval
will prevent shooting at the specified interval. For this reason, fewer shots than
specified will be taken. Using shutter speeds nearly the same as the shooting
interval may also reduce the number of shots.
If the time it takes to record to the card exceeds the shooting interval due to the
shooting functions set or card performance, some of the shots may not be taken
with the set intervals.
When using flash with interval timer shooting, set an interval longer than the flash
charge time. Intervals that are too short may prevent the flash from firing.
Intervals that are too short may prevent shooting or autofocusing.
Interval timer shooting is canceled and reset to [Disable] if you set the power
switch to <
>, switch the shooting mode to [BULB], [C1], [C2], or [C3], switch
to movie recording, or use EOS Utility (EOS software).
During interval timer shooting, you cannot use Remote Control Shooting or remote-

Exposure ( )
Image brightness as displayed closely matches the actual brightness
(exposure) of your shots. If you set exposure compensation, the image
brightness will change accordingly.
Exposure only during DOF ( )
Normally, the image is displayed at standard brightness, so it is easy to
see. Only when you press and hold the depth-of-field preview button
will image brightness resemble actual brightness (exposure) of your
shot, and you can check depth of field.

General Still Photo Shooting Precautions
Caution
Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun or an
intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the
camera's internal components.
Image quality
When you shoot at high ISO speeds, noise (such as dots of light and banding) may
become noticeable.
Shooting in high temperatures may cause noise and irregular colors in the image.
Frequent shooting over an extended period may cause high internal temperatures
and affect image quality. When you are not shooting, always turn off the camera.
If you shoot a long exposure while the camera's internal temperature is high, image
quality may decline. Stop shooting and wait a few minutes before shooting again.
White [
] internal temperature warning icon
A white [ ] icon indicates high internal camera temperature, caused by factors
such as extended shooting or use in hot environments.
The white [ ] icon indicates that the image quality of still photos will decline. Stop
shooting for a while and allow the camera to cool down.
Shooting at low ISO speeds instead of high speeds is recommended when the
white [ ] icon is displayed.
Shooting in hot environments over extended periods will cause the white [ ] or
red [ ] icon to appear sooner. When you are not shooting, always turn off the
camera.
If the camera's internal temperature is high, the quality of images shot with a high
ISO speed or long exposure may decline even before the white [ ] icon is
displayed.
Camera overheating indicator
A temperature indicator [ ] is displayed when the camera begins to become
hot.
For details on how indicator display corresponds to camera operation, see Warning
Indicator Display During Shooting or Recording.
Shooting results
In magnified view, the shutter speed and aperture value will be displayed in orange.
If you take the picture in magnified view, the exposure may not come out as
desired. Return to the normal view before taking the picture.
Even if you take the picture in magnified view, the image will be captured with the
image area of the normal view.
341
background
Images and display
Under low- or bright-light conditions, the displayed image may not reflect the
brightness of the captured image.
Although noise may be noticeable in images under low light (even at low ISO
speeds), there will be less noise in your shots, due to differences in image quality
between displayed and captured images.
The screen may flicker if the light source (lighting) changes. In this case, stop
shooting temporarily and resume under the light source you will use.
Pointing the camera at different direction may momentarily prevent correct display
of brightness. Wait until the brightness level stabilizes before shooting.
If there is a very bright light source in the image, the bright area may appear black
on the screen. However, the actual captured image will correctly show the bright
area.
Under low light, bright [ : Screen brightness] settings may cause noise or
irregular colors in images. However, the noise or irregular colors will not be
recorded in the captured image.
When you magnify the image, the image sharpness may look more pronounced
than in the actual setting.
Lens
If the attached lens has an Image Stabilizer and you set the Image Stabilizer switch
to < >, the Image Stabilizer will operate at all times even if you do not press
the shutter button halfway. The Image Stabilizer consumes battery power and may
decrease the number of available shots depending on the shooting conditions.
When the Image Stabilizer is not necessary, such as when using a tripod, it is
recommended that you set the Image Stabilizer switch to < >.
With EF lenses, focus preset during shooting is only available when using (super)
telephoto lenses equipped with this function released in and after the second half of
2011.
Note
The field of view is approx. 100% (with image quality set to JPEG ).
If the camera is idle over an extended period, the screen will turn off automatically
after the time set in [Screen off] or [Viewfinder off] under [
: Power saving]. The
camera then turns off automatically after the time set in [Auto power off] ( ).
Using a commercially available HDMI cable, you can display images on a television

8K/4K Movie Recording
Recording 8K or 4K movies requires a stable card with a fast writing speed. For details,
see
Cards That Can Record Movies.
8K/4K movie recording greatly increases the processing load, which may increase the
internal camera temperature faster or higher than for regular movies. Display of [ ],
white [ ], or red [ ] icons during movie recording warns that cards
may be hot, so if you need to remove them, stop recording for a while before
removal, and do not remove them immediately.
From a 8K or 4K movie, you can select any frame to save to the card as a JPEG still
image ( ).
HDMI video output of 8K movies results in 4K movies.

Cards That Can Record Movies
For details on cards that can record movies, see Cards That Can Record Movies.
See Estimated recording time, movie bit rate, file size, and card performance requirements
for details on SD cards.
Test cards by recording a few movies to make sure they can record correctly at your
specified size ( ).
Caution
Before recording 8K or 4K movies, format cards by selecting [Low level format] in
[ : Format card] ( ).
If you use a slow-writing card when recording movies, the movie may not be
recorded properly. Also, if you play back a movie on a card with a slow reading
speed, the movie may not be played back properly.
When recording movies, use high-performance cards with a writing speed
sufficiently higher than the bit rate.
When movies cannot be recorded properly, format the card and try again. If
formatting the card does not resolve the problem, refer to the card manufacturer's
website, etc.
Recording to SD cards may not be possible, depending on the movie recording
size. Pressing the movie shooting button will not start recording. For details, see
Specifications.
Note
To obtain better performance with the card, formatting the card with the camera

Canon Log Image Quality
With Canon Log, skies, white walls, and similar subjects may be affected by noise or
uneven gradation, exposure, or colors, depending on the subject or shooting conditions.
Banding or noise may also be noticeable in dark image areas.
Noise may become more noticeable if you enhance the contrast or edit images in similar
ways.
Record a few test movies and check the results in advance.
Image quality may improve if you change the ISO speed or, in post-production, perform
color grading.
Caution
With Canon Log, autofocusing may be more difficult for subjects under low light, or
for low-contrast subjects.
Difficulty in autofocusing can be reduced by shooting near maximum aperture or
using a bright lens.
Noise may appear at image edges if [Peripheral illum corr] in [ : Lens
aberration correction] is set to [Enable] when Canon Log is set.
Histograms with [ : HDR/C.Log View Assist.] set to [On] are not
based on conversion for View Assist display. Image areas shown in gray in the

Caution
Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun or an
intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the
camera's internal components.
Time-lapse movies cannot be recorded when the camera is connected to a
computer with the interface cable, or when an HDMI cable is connected.
Movie Servo AF will not function.
If the shutter speed is 1/30 sec. or slower, the exposure of the movie may not be
displayed properly (may differ from that of the resulting movie).
Do not zoom the lens during time-lapse movie recording. Zooming the lens may
cause the image to be out of focus, the exposure to change, or the lens aberration
correction not to function properly.
Recording time-lapse movies under flickering light may cause noticeable screen
flickering, and images may be captured with horizontal stripes (noise) or irregular
exposure.
Images displayed as time-lapse movies are recorded may look different from the
resulting movie (in details such as inconsistent brightness from flickering light
sources, or noise from a high ISO speed).
When recording a time-lapse movie under low light, the image displayed during
shooting may look different from what is actually recorded in the movie. In such
cases, the [ ] icon will blink.
If you move the camera from left to right (panning) or shoot a moving subject during
time-lapse movie recording, the image may look extremely distorted.
During time-lapse movie recording, auto power off will not take effect. Also, you
cannot adjust the shooting function and menu function settings, play back images,
etc.
Sound is not recorded for time-lapse movies.
To start or stop time-lapse movie recording, you can press the shutter button
completely, regardless of the [ : Shutter btn function for movies] setting.
Significant changes in brightness between shots may prevent the camera from
shooting at the specified interval when [Interval] is set to less than 3 sec. and
[Auto exposure] is set to [Each frame].
If the shutter speed exceeds the shooting interval (such as for long exposures), or if
a slow shutter speed is set automatically, the camera may not be able to shoot at
the set interval. Shooting may also be prevented by shooting intervals nearly the

background
Caution
Movie digital IS will not function when the lens's optical Image Stabilizer switch is
set to < >.
With non-IS lenses, setting [ Digital IS] to [On] or [Enhanced] also sets [IS
mode] to [On].
Although movies can also be recorded with Movie digital IS when using RF-S or
EF-S lenses or movie cropping, the image area is further reduced.
Stabilization by Movie digital IS may be less effective at some movie recording
sizes.
The wider the angle of view (wide angle), the more effective the image stabilization
will be. The narrower the angle of view (telephoto), the less effective the image
stabilization will be.
When using a tripod, setting Movie digital IS to [Off] is recommended.
Depending on the subject and shooting conditions, the subject may blur noticeably
(the subject momentarily looks out of focus) due to the effects of the Movie digital
IS.
Consider setting to [Off] when using a TS-E lens or fish-eye lens.
Since Movie digital IS magnifies the image, the image looks more grainy. Noise,
dots of light, etc. may also become noticeable.
With the frame rate set to 239.76, 200.00, 119.88, or 100.00 fps, Movie digital IS
may not provide sufficient stabilization when shooting with a macro lens near the
closest focusing distance.
Note
For details on configuring image stabilization for still photo shooting, see Image
Stabilizer (IS Mode).
With some lenses, even more effective stabilization (indicated by “+” next to the IS
icon) is possible when the lens's IS is used in conjunction with [IS mode] and
[Movie digital IS] on the camera. For details on lenses compatible with this feature,

Guidance Display Before Recording
Shutdown warning guidance may be displayed when the camera starts up, after settings are
adjusted, or in other situations ( ).
The guidance warns that the camera may become hot internally if movies are recorded
under the current settings, and that if you continue recording, the camera may turn off
automatically.
If you will record over an extended period, consider changing the setting indicated by the
guidance (movie recording size), so that you can record without the camera displaying
guidance.
If you prefer to record without changing the settings, note any warning indicators displayed
as you record.
476

Warning Indicator Display During Shooting or
Recording
A 10-level indicator (1) is displayed during still photo shooting or movie recording in case of
excessive internal camera temperature.
As the internal temperature rises, the level on the indicator extends to the right. How fast the
level increases will depend on shooting conditions. Levels 1–7 are marked in white, but once
the temperature reaches level 8, the color changes.
[ ] flashes in red if you continue recording after the indicator reaches level 9, marked in
orange. A flashing icon indicates that the camera will soon turn off automatically.
A message is displayed if you continue to record while the icon is flashing, and the camera
automatically turns off.
477
background
Subsequent recording
To keep recording under the same settings, leave the camera off and let it cool down a
while. Note that the camera may overheat again after you resume recording.
Caution
Precautions for movie recording
Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun or an
intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the
camera's internal components.
If you record something that has fine detail, moire or false colors may result.
If [ ] or [ ] is set and the ISO speed or aperture value changes during
movie recording, the white balance may also change.
If you record a movie under fluorescent or LED lighting, the movie image may
flicker.
If you perform AF with a USM lens during movie recording in low light, horizontal
banding noise may be recorded in the movie. The same type of noise may occur if
you focus manually with certain lenses equipped with an electronic focusing ring.
Recording a few test movies is recommended if you intend to perform zooming
during movie recording. Zooming as you record movies may cause exposure
changes or lens sounds to be recorded, an uneven audio level, inaccurate lens
aberration correction, or loss of focus.
Large aperture values may delay or prevent accurate focusing.
Performing AF during movie recording may cause the following kinds of issues:
significant temporary loss of focus, recording of changes in movie brightness,
temporary stopping of movie recording, or recording of mechanical lens sounds.
Avoid covering the built-in microphones with your fingers or other objects.
Connecting or disconnecting an HDMI cable during movie recording will end
recording.
If necessary, also see General Still Photo Shooting Precautions.
The camera may become hot in movie recording while connected via Wi-Fi. Use a
tripod or take other measures to avoid handheld recording.
Image quality may be lower when recording movies under a combination of
conditions such as high ISO speeds, high temperatures, low shutter speeds, and
low light.
Recording movies over an extended period may cause the camera's internal
temperature to rise and affect image quality. Turn off the camera when possible if
you are not recording movies.
478
background
Recording and image quality
If the attached lens has an Image Stabilizer and you set the Image Stabilizer switch
to < >, the Image Stabilizer will operate at all times even if you do not press the
shutter button halfway. This will consume battery power, and it may reduce the total
movie recording time. When the Image Stabilizer is not necessary, such as when
using a tripod, it is recommended that you set the Image Stabilizer switch to
< >.
If the brightness changes as you record a movie with auto exposure, the movie
may appear to stop momentarily. In this case, record movies with manual
exposure.
If there is a very bright light source in the image, the bright area may appear black
on the screen. Movies are recorded almost exactly as they appear on the screen.
Image noise or irregular colors may occur when recording at high ISO speeds, high
temperatures, slow shutter speeds, or under low light.
Video and audio quality of recorded movies may be worse on other devices, and
playback may not be possible, even if the devices support XF-HEVC/XF-AVC
formats.
If you use a card with a slow writing speed, an indicator may appear on the right
of the screen during movie recording. The indicator shows how much data has
not yet been written to the card (remaining capacity of the internal buffer
memory), and it increases more quickly the slower the card is. If the indicator (2)
becomes full, movie recording will stop automatically.
If the card has a fast writing speed, the indicator will not appear or the level (if
displayed) will not increase much. First, record a few test movies to see if the card
can write fast enough.
If the indicator shows that the card is full, and movie recording stops automatically,
the sound near the end of the movie may not be recorded properly.
If the card's writing speed is slow (due to fragmentation) and the indicator appears,
formatting the card may make the writing speed faster.
Banding or noise may be noticeable in dark image areas, depending on [ :
Custom Picture], [ : HDR shooting (PQ)], [ : Highlight tone priority], or
[
: HDMI RAW output] settings, due to the effect of settings that determine the
dynamic range, gamma curve, and similar details. Record a few test movies and
check the results in advance.
Image quality may improve if you change the ISO speed or the [ : High ISO
speed NR] or [Shadow comp.] settings, or, in post-production, perform color
grading.
Audio restrictions
The following restrictions apply in [ ] mode.
Sound will not be recorded for approx. the last two frames.
When you play back movies in Windows, movie images and sound may
become slightly out of synchronization.

Precautions when set to [Movie Servo AF: Enable]
Shooting conditions that make focusing difficult
A fast-moving subject approaching or moving away from the camera.
A subject moving at a close distance to the camera.
When shooting with a higher aperture value.
Also see Shooting Conditions That Make Focusing Difficult.
Since the lens is driven continuously and the battery power is consumed, the
possible movie recording time (
) will be shortened.
The camera's built-in microphone may also record mechanical sounds of the lens
or sounds of camera/lens operations if AF operations are performed or the camera
or lens is operated during movie recording. In this case, using an external
microphone may reduce these sounds. If the sounds are still distracting with an
external microphone, it may be more effective to remove the external microphone
from the camera and position it away from the camera and lens.
Movie Servo AF pauses during magnified view.
During movie recording, if a subject approaches or moves away or if the camera is
moved vertically or horizontally (panning), the recorded image may momentarily
expand or contract (change in image magnification).

Tracking sensitivity
Setting for Servo AF subject-tracking sensitivity in response to non-subjects moving across
AF points or subjects straying from AF points.
0
Standard setting. Suitable for moving subjects in general.
Locked on: –2 / –1
The camera will try to continue focusing on the subject even if non-subjects move
across AF points or if the subject strays from the AF points. The –2 setting makes the
camera keep tracking the target subject longer than the –1 setting.
However, if the camera focuses on a wrong subject, it may take slightly longer to switch
and focus on the target subject.
Responsive: +2 / +1
The camera can focus consecutively on subjects at different distances that are covered
by the AF points. Also effective when you want to always focus on the closest subject.
The +2 setting is more responsive than the +1 setting when focusing on the next
subject.
However, the camera will be more prone to focus on an unintended subject.
555
background
Acceleration/deceleration tracking
Setting for subject-tracking sensitivity in response to sudden, significant changes in speed,
as when subjects suddenly start or stop moving.
0
Suited for subjects that move at a steady speed (minor changes in moving speed).
–2 / –1
Suited for subjects that move at a steady speed (minor changes in moving speed).
Effective when a setting of 0 makes focus unstable, due to slight subject movement or
an obstruction in front of the subject.
+2 / +1
Effective for subjects having sudden movements, sudden acceleration/deceleration, or
sudden stops. Even if the moving subject's speed suddenly changes significantly, the
camera continues to focus on the target subject. For example, the camera is less likely
to focus behind a subject that suddenly starts approaching you, or in front of an
approaching subject that suddenly stops moving. Setting +2 can track dramatic changes
in the moving subject's speed better than with +1.
However, since the camera will be sensitive to even slight movements of the subject,
focusing may become unstable for short periods.
556
background
Case Special
Useful for difficult-to-track subjects, such as those behind a net in sports such as badminton
or volleyball.
1.

Turn the < > dial to select [SP], then press < >.
The case is set to special and [SP] is displayed in blue.
Caution
The camera may focus more toward the background than usual. Especially with
subjects that are small or not behind a net, the camera may focus further back than
the subject.
Dense nets in front of subjects may make focusing more difficult.
The effect of this setting may vary by lens.

Locked on: –3/–2/–1
With this setting, the camera is less likely to track a different subject if the subject strays
from the AF point. The closer the setting is to the minus (–) symbol, the less the camera
is inclined to track a different subject. It is effective when you want to prevent the AF
points from rapidly tracking something that is not the intended subject during panning or
when an obstacle cuts across the AF points.
Responsive: +1/+2/+3
This makes the camera more responsive when tracking a subject that covers the AF
point. The closer the setting is to the plus (+) symbol, the more responsive the camera

: Digital Lens Optimizer ( )
Correct lens aberration, diffraction, and low-pass filter-induced loss of resolution by
applying optical design values. To check the effect of setting this option to [High] or
[Standard], use magnified view (
). Without magnification, the effect when Digital Lens
Optimizer is set to [High] is not applied. Selecting [High] or [Standard] processes
images as if both chromatic aberration and diffraction were set to [Enable], although
these options are not displayed.
: Chromatic aberr corr ( )
Chromatic aberrations (color fringing along the subject's outline) due to the lens
characteristics can be corrected. If [Enable] is set, the corrected image will be
displayed. If the effect is difficult to discern, magnify the image ( ).
: Diffraction correction ( )
The diffraction by the lens aperture degrading the image sharpness can be corrected. If
[Enable] is set, the corrected image will be displayed. If the effect is difficult to discern,
magnify the image (
).
Caution
Processing RAW images in the camera will not produce exactly the same results
as processing RAW images with Digital Photo Professional (EOS software).
If you perform [Brightness adjustment], noise, banding, etc. may be intensified
with the effects of adjustment.
When [Digital Lens Optimizer] is set, noise may be intensified together with the
effects of correction.
When [Digital Lens Optimizer] is set, image edges may be emphasized, under
some shooting conditions. Adjust sharpness of the Picture Style as needed.
Processing with [Digital Lens Optimizer] set to [High] may take some time.
Note
Effects of lens aberration correction vary by lens and shooting conditions. Also, the
effect may be difficult to discern depending on the lens used, shooting conditions,
etc.
RAW movies cannot be processed. Process them with Digital Photo Professional

Detection level
Levels of blur/out-of-focus detection are based on these criteria.
Standard:
[
] (little blurring/lack of focus) is displayed for images that are fairly
clear and in focus when viewed with the naked eye at actual size.
High:
[ ] (little blurring/lack of focus) is displayed for images that are clearer
and more in focus than [Standard].
Low:
[ ] (little blurring/lack of focus) is also displayed for images that are
less clear and in focus than [Standard], excluding images that are
greatly blurred or out of focus.
After completing the settings, press the < > button.
Caution
Image evaluation by the camera may not match a subjective impression with the
naked eye. This discrepancy may be greater when the level is set to [High].
Ultimately, images should be evaluated visually to decide.
Consider changing the detection level if image evaluation by the camera does not
match your impression of images.

[Brightness] display
This histogram is a graph showing the distribution of the image's brightness level, with
the horizontal axis indicating the brightness level (darker on the left and brighter on the
right) and the vertical axis indicating the pixel count at each brightness level. The more
pixels there are toward the left, the darker the image, and the more pixels there are
toward the right, the brighter the image. If there are too many pixels on the left, detail in
shadows will be lost, and if there are too many pixels on the right, detail in highlights will
be lost. The gradation in-between will be reproduced. By checking the image and its
brightness histogram, you can see the exposure level inclination and the overall
gradation.

[RGB] display
This histogram is a graph showing the distribution of each primary color's brightness
level in the image (RGB or red, green, and blue), with the horizontal axis indicating the
color's brightness level (darker on the left and brighter on the right) and the vertical axis
indicating the pixel count at each color brightness level. The more pixels there are
toward the left, the darker and less prominent the color, and the more pixels there are
toward the right, the brighter and denser the color. If there are too many pixels on the
left, the corresponding color information will be lacking, and if there are too many pixels
on the right, the color will be too saturated, without gradation. By checking the image's
RGB histogram, you can see the color's saturation and gradation conditions, as well as
the white balance bias.

Caution
Video and audio may be noisy during streaming, depending on the communication
environment. Test streaming in advance and check the video and audio quality.
Try the following if video and audio is noisy or skips. These steps may improve the
quality.
Bring the camera and access point (wireless router, tethering smartphone, etc.)
closer together, change their relative positions, and keep the space between
them free of people and objects.
Indoors, set up the access point and camera in the same room.
Set up away from devices that use the 2.4 GHz band, such as microwave
ovens or cordless phones.
If noise from an external microphone is distracting, try placing the microphone on
the side of the camera with the external microphone IN terminal as far from the
camera as possible.
Although selecting 3.5 Mbps as the streaming quality in Camera Connect may
enable more stable streaming than with 6 Mbps, image quality will be lower.
The camera will become warmer during streaming. Use the stand or a tripod, or
take other measures to avoid handheld recording.
Note that Canon is in no way responsible for third-party services.
No image is recorded to the card during streaming (but a card must be in the
camera).
Test streaming in advance to make sure the image is straight and in the correct
orientation, and adjust the orientation as needed.
Be sure to read Wireless Communication Precautions.

Position receiver cameras where there is an unobstructed line of sight to them from the
sender camera.
Receiver cameras can be positioned up to approx. 50 m from the sender camera.
However, the effective range for linked shooting may be shorter depending on wireless
communication conditions, which are affected by factors such as camera positioning, the
environment of use, and weather conditions.
Pressing the sender camera shutter button halfway also has the effect of pressing the
receiver camera shutter buttons halfway. Similarly, pressing the sender camera shutter
button completely has the same effect on receiver cameras, which also shoot.
There is a slight delay in the shutter release timing between the sender and receiver
cameras, and simultaneous shooting is not possible.
Caution
Do not use multiple flash units. Although slight, the difference in shutter release
timing may cause out-of-sync flash firing and inadequate exposure.
848
background
Note
In linked shooting, pressing the AE lock or depth-of-field preview button executes
focusing and metering just as pressing the shutter button halfway does.
Once you have established a connection between sender and receiver cameras,

Precautions for Using Multiple Cameras
If the transmission rate drops, the connection is lost, or other problems occur when using the
wireless communication functions, try the following corrective actions.
941
background
Distance Between the Camera and the Smartphone
If the camera is too far from the smartphone, a Wi-Fi connection may not be established
even when Bluetooth connection is possible. In this case, bring the camera and the
smartphone closer together, then establish a Wi-Fi connection.
Installation Location of Access Point Antenna
When using indoors, install the device in the room where you are using the camera.
Install the device where people or objects do not come between the device and the
camera.
Nearby Electronic Devices
If the Wi-Fi transmission rate drops because of the influence of the following electronic
devices, stop using them or move further away from the devices to transmit communication.
The camera communicates over Wi-Fi via IEEE 802.11b/g/n/ax using radio waves in the
2.4 GHz band. For this reason, the Wi-Fi transmission rate will drop if there are
Bluetooth devices, microwave ovens, cordless telephones, microphones, smartphones,
other cameras, or similar devices operating on the same frequency band nearby.
Precautions for Using Multiple Cameras
When connecting multiple cameras to one access point via Wi-Fi, make sure the
cameras' IP addresses are different.
When multiple cameras are connected to one access point via Wi-Fi, the transmission
rate drops.
When there are multiple IEEE 802.11b/g/n/ax (2.4 GHz band) access points, leave a
gap of five channels between each Wi-Fi channel to reduce radio wave interference. For
example, use channels 1, 6, and 11, channels 2 and 7, or channels 3 and 8.
942

Security
When connecting the camera to a network, make sure to use a secure network environment.
It is recommended to use the camera with the default settings.
When connecting the camera to a network, there is a risk of unauthorized access from
unintended third parties or cyber-attacks. If access from an external network is not required,
physically and/or virtually block access so that only specified devices can access the
network. Additionally, Wi-Fi (wireless LAN) may be intercepted by malicious third parties,
posing a risk of eavesdropping on communication content.
If access to an external network is required, it is important to implement a secure method of
communication, such as using a VPN (Virtual Private Network) that can block access from
the outside. Use Wi-Fi in a secure environment. AES encryption is recommended.
In particular, the following functions do not support protocol encryption for communication
with the camera; therefore, use these functions in a secure network environment.
Content Transfer Professional
Camera Connect
EOS Utility
Caution
Canon shall not be liable for any direct or indirect damages caused by network
security issues.
The camera cannot be directly connected to the communication lines (including
public wireless LAN) of telecommunications carriers (mobile communications
companies, fixed-line communications companies, Internet providers, etc.). When
connecting the camera to the Internet, be sure to connect via a router or similar
device.

Caution
When the card is formatted, all images and data on the card will be erased.
Even protected images will be erased, so make sure there is nothing you
need to keep. If necessary, transfer the images and data to a computer, etc.
before formatting the card.

Conditions requiring card formatting
The card is new.
The card was formatted by a different camera or a computer.
The card is full of images or data.
A card-related error is displayed ( ).
Low-level formatting
Perform low-level formatting if the card's writing or reading speed seems slow or if you
want to totally erase the data on the card.
Since low-level formatting will format all recordable sectors on the card, the formatting
will take longer than normal formatting.
During low-level formatting, you can cancel formatting by selecting [Cancel]. Even in
this case, normal formatting will already be complete and you can use the card as usual.
Card file formats
CFexpress cards are exFAT formatted.
SD cards are FAT16 or FAT12 formatted.
SDHC cards are FAT32 formatted.
SDXC cards are exFAT formatted.
Individual movies recorded to exFAT-formatted cards are recorded as a single file
(without splitting them into multiple files) even if they exceed 4 GB, so the resulting
movie file will exceed 4 GB.
Caution
It may not be possible to use cards formatted with this camera in other cameras.
Also note that exFAT-formatted cards may not be recognized by some computer
operating systems or card readers.
Formatting or erasing data on a card does not completely erase the data. Be aware
of this when selling or discarding the card. When disposing of cards, take steps to
protect personal information if necessary, as by physically destroying cards.
Note
The card capacity displayed on the card format screen may be smaller than the
capacity indicated on the card.

[Exposure]
Safety shift
If the subject brightness changes and the standard exposure cannot be obtained within the
autoexposure range, the camera will automatically change the manually selected setting to
obtain the standard exposure. [Shutter speed/Aperture] applies to [Tv] or [Av] mode. [ISO
speed] applies to [P], [Tv], or [Av] mode.
OFF: Disable
Tv/Av: Shutter speed/Aperture
ISO: ISO speed
Note
Safety shift overrides any changes to [ISO speed range] or [Min. shutter spd.]
from default settings in [ : ISO speed settings] if standard exposure cannot
be obtained.
The minimum and maximum limits for the safety shift with the ISO speed are
determined by [Auto range] ( ). However, if the manually set ISO speed exceeds
the [Auto range], the safety shift will take effect up or down to the manually set
ISO speed.
Safety shift will take effect as necessary even when flash is used.

Same expo. for new aperture
The maximum aperture value may decrease (the lowest f/number may increase) in [M]
mode (manual exposure shooting) with ISO speed set manually (except when set to ISO
Auto) if you (1) Change lenses, (2) Attach an extender, or (3) Use a zoom lens with a
variable maximum aperture value. This function prevents the corresponding underexposure
by adjusting ISO speed or shutter speed (Tv value) automatically to maintain the same
exposure as before (1), (2), or (3).
With [ISO speed/Shutter speed], the ISO speed is automatically adjusted within the ISO
speed range. If exposure cannot be maintained by adjusting ISO speed, shutter speed (Tv
value) is automatically adjusted.
OFF: Disable

Caution
Does not respond to changes in effective aperture value from changes in

Note
Also responds to changes in the highest f/number (minimum aperture).
The original exposure setting is restored if you perform (1), (2), or (3) with [ISO
speed], [ISO speed/Shutter speed], or [Shutter speed] set and do not adjust ISO
speed, shutter speed, or aperture value before returning the camera to the original

I cannot lock the focus and recompose the shot.
Set the AF operation to One-Shot AF ( ). Shooting with the focus locked is not
possible with Servo AF ( ).
The continuous shooting speed is slow.
High-speed continuous shooting may be slower depending on the battery level, ambient
temperature, flickering light, shutter speed, aperture value, subject conditions,
brightness, AF operation, type of lens, use of flash, shooting settings, and other
conditions. For details, see Selecting the Drive Mode, or see File size / Number of shots
available / Maximum burst for continuous shooting for still photos.
The maximum burst during continuous shooting is lower.
Shooting intricate subjects such as fields of grass may result in larger file sizes, and the
actual maximum burst may be lower than the guidelines in
File size / Number of shots
available / Maximum burst for continuous shooting for still photos.
Even after I change the card, the maximum burst displayed for
continuous shooting does not change.
Estimated maximum burst indicated in the viewfinder does not change when you switch
cards, even if you switch to a high-speed card. Maximum burst listed in File size /
Number of shots available / Maximum burst for continuous shooting for still photos is
based on the standard Canon test card, and the actual maximum burst is higher for
cards with faster writing speeds. For this reason, estimated maximum burst may differ
from actual maximum burst.
