• EOS cameras have a lens mount for dedicated operation (autofocusing, exposure control, etc.) with Canon EF lenses. Using a non-Canon EF lens with an EOS camera may not result in proper camera or lens operation. Note that the warranty does not cover any camera malfunction or damage occurring with the use of non-Canon products. -

Page 4: Handling Cautions
• 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. - Page 5 • 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.

Mounting and Detaching a Lens Mounting a Lens Remove the caps. • Remove the rear lens cap and the camera body cap. Mount the lens. • Align the red dots on the lens and camera and turn the lens as shown by the arrow until it snaps in place. -
Page 14: How The Shutter Button Works
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) -
Page 15: Loading And Unloading Film
=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. -
Page 16: Midroll Rewind
=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. -

Page 19: Shutter Button
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. -
Page 20: Programmed Image Control Modes
Programmed Image Control Modes Select a shooting mode to suit the target subject, and the camera will be set to obtain the best results. Portrait This mode blurs the background to make the human subject stand out. • Holding down the shutter button executes continuous shooting. -

Page 22: Fusing Red-Eye Reduction
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. -

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. Turn the Mode Dial to <T>. -
Page 33: Camera
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. -
Page 34: Camera
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. -
Page 35: Camera
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). -
Page 36: W Manual Exposure
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. -
Page 37: Camera
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. -
Page 38: Camera
∑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. Turn the Mode Dial to a Creative Zone mode except <W>. -

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. Move the <>> arrow to the AEB amount <L> icon. •... -
Page 40: Jae Lock
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. -
Page 41: Camera
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. Turn the Mode Dial to <W>. Set the shutter speed to “... -
Page 42: Camera
<Multiple Exposures Take the picture. After you take all the multiple exposures, the film advances to 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. -
