For details on charging time and the number of shots and
recording time possible with a fully charged battery pack, see
“Number of Shots/Recording Time, Playback Time” (

Charged battery packs gradually lose their charge, even when
they are not used. Charge the battery pack on (or immediately
before) the day of use.
The charger can be used in areas with 100 – 240 V AC power
(50/60Hz).Forpoweroutletsinadi󰀨erentformat,usea
commercially available adapter for the plug. Never use an
electrical transformer designed for traveling, which may damage
the battery pack.
Inserting the Battery Pack and Memory Card
Insert the included battery pack and a memory card (sold separately).
Note that before using a memory card that is new or has been formatted
in another device, you should format the memory card with this camera
(

Optimal image stabilization for the shooting conditions is automatically

Image stabilization for movies, reducing strong camera shake, as

Image stabilization for slow camera shake, such as when

No image stabilization, because the camera is mounted on
a tripod or held still by other means. However, during movie
recording, [ ] is displayed, and image stabilization to counteract
wind or other sources of vibration is used (Tripod IS).
* Displayed when you pan, following moving subjects with the camera. When you
follow subjects moving horizontally, image stabilization only counteracts vertical
camera shake, and horizontal stabilization stops. Similarly, when you follow
subjects moving vertically, image stabilization only counteracts horizontal camera

When distant subjects are too far away to enlarge using optical zoom, use
digital zoom for up to about 48x enlargement.
1
Move the zoom lever toward [ ].
Hold the lever until zooming stops.
Zooming stops at the largest zoom factor
before the image becomes noticeably
grainy, which is then indicated on the

On-Screen Frames
Still Images
Movies
In [ ] mode, a variety of frames are displayed once the camera
detects subjects you are aiming the camera at.
A white frame is displayed around the subject (or person’s face)
determined by the camera to be the main subject, and gray frames are
displayed around other detected faces. Frames follow moving subjects
within a certain range to keep them in focus.
However, if the camera detects subject movement, only the white
frame will remain on the screen.
When you are pressing the shutter button halfway and the camera
detects subject movement, a blue frame is displayed, and the focus
and image brightness are constantly adjusted (Servo AF).
Try shooting in [ ] mode (
=

frames are not displayed around desired subjects, or if frames are
displayed on the background or similar areas.

When multiple faces are detected, a

subject’s face and up to two gray frames
around other faces, as the camera zooms
to keep these subjects on the screen.

Shoot.
Auto zooming continues even after you
shoot, and the frames are still displayed.
To cancel auto zooming, press the [
]
button again. [ ] is displayed.
Faces may not be detected at some zoom factors, or if the
subject’s head is tilted or facing the camera indirectly.
Auto zooming is deactivated in the following situations.
- When you change the shooting mode
- When you press the [
] button, movie button, or [ ]
button
- When you press the [
] button
When a detected subject moves toward the edge of the screen,
the camera zooms out to keep the subject on the screen.
The zoom factor cannot be changed after you press the shutter
button all the way down in self-timer mode (
=
36).
The camera prioritizes zooming to keep subjects on the screen.
For this reason, it may not be possible to maintain a constant
face display size, depending on subject movement and shooting
conditions.
When no face is detected, the camera zooms to a certain level
and stops zooming until a face is detected.
Moving the zoom lever will display the zoom bar (which indicates
the zoom position). The zoom bar is color-coded to indicate the
zoom range.
- White range: optical zoom range where the image will not
appear grainy.
- Yellow range: digital zoom range where the image is not
noticeably grainy (ZoomPlus).
- Blue range: digital zoom range where the image will appear
grainy.
Because the blue range will not be available at some recording
pixel settings (
=
39), the maximum zoom factor can be
achieved by following step 1.
To deactivate digital zoom, choose MENU (

Formatting Memory Cards
Before using a new memory card or a card formatted in another device,

press the [
][ ] buttons to adjust the
brightness.
For maximum brightness, press and hold the [ ] button for at
least one second when the shooting screen is displayed or when

File Numbering
Yourshotsareautomaticallynumberedinsequentialorder(0001–9999)
and saved in folders that store up to 2,000 images each. You can change
howthecameraassignslenumbers.
Choose [File Numbering], and then
choose an option.
Continuous
Images are numbered consecutively (until the 9999th
shot is taken/saved) even if you switch memory cards.
Auto Reset
Image numbering is reset to 0001 if you switch memory
cards, or when a new folder is created.
Regardless of the option selected in this setting, shots may be
numbered consecutively after the last number of existing images
on newly inserted memory cards. To start saving shots from 0001,
use an empty (or formatted,
=
106) memory card.
The total card capacity indicated on the formatting screen may be
less than the advertised capacity.
Low-Level Formatting
Perform low-level formatting in the following cases: [Memory card error] is
displayed, the camera is not working correctly, card image reading/writing
is slower, continuous shooting is slower, or movie recording suddenly
stops. Low-level formatting erases all data on a memory card. Before low-
level formatting, copy images on the memory card to a computer, or take
other steps to back them up.
On the screen in step 2 of “Formatting
Memory Cards” (
=
106), press the
[ ][ ] buttons to choose [Low Level
Format], and then press the [ ][ ]
buttons to select this option. A [ ] icon is
displayed.
Follow steps 2 – 3 in “Formatting Memory
Cards” (
=
106) to continue with the
formatting process.
Low-level formatting takes longer than “Formatting Memory
Cards” (
=
106), because data is erased from all storage regions
of the memory card.
You can cancel low-level formatting in progress by choosing
[Stop]. In this case, all data will be erased, but the memory card
can be used normally.

Dirty battery terminals reduce battery performance. Try cleaning the terminals
with a cotton swab and reinserting the battery pack a few times.
Thebatterypackrunsoutofpowerquickly.
Battery performance decreases at low temperatures. Try warming the battery
pack a little by putting it in your pocket, for example, ensuring that the terminals
do not touch any metal objects.
Dirty battery terminals reduce battery performance. Try cleaning the terminals
with a cotton swab and reinserting the battery pack a few times.
If these measures do not help and the battery pack still runs out of power soon
after charging, it has reached the end of its life. Purchase a new battery pack.
The lens is not retracted.
Do not open the memory card/battery cover while the camera is on. Close the
cover,turnthecameraon,andthenturnito󰀨again(=

Handling Precautions
The camera is a high-precision electronic device. Avoid dropping it or
subjecting it to strong impact.
Never bring the camera near magnets, motors, or other devices that
generatestrongelectromagneticelds,whichmaycausemalfunction
or erase image data.
If water droplets or dirt adheres to the camera or screen, wipe with
a dry soft cloth, such as an eyeglass cloth. Do not rub hard or apply
force.
Never use cleaners containing organic solvents to clean the camera
or screen.
Useablowerbrushtoremovedustfromthelens.Ifcleaningisdi󰀩cult,
contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
To prevent condensation from forming on the camera after sudden
temperature changes (when the camera is transferred from cold to
warm environments), put the camera in an airtight, resealable plastic
bag and let it gradually adjust to the temperature before removing it
from the bag.
If condensation does form on the camera, stop using it immediately.
Continuing to use the camera in this state may damage it. Remove
the battery pack and memory card, and wait until the moisture has
evaporated before resuming use.
Store unused battery packs in a plastic bag or other container. To
maintain battery performance if you will not use the battery pack for
some time, about once a year charge it and then use the camera until
it runs out of power before storing the battery pack.
