Handling Precautions
LCD Monitor Although the LCD monitor is manufactured with very high precisiontechnology with over 99.99% effective pixels, there may be a few dead pixels
displaying only black or red, etc., among the remaining 0.01% or less pixels.Dead pixels are not a malfunction. They do not affect the images recorded.If the LCD monitor is left on for a prolonged period, screen burn-in may occurwhere you see remnants of what was displayed. However, this is onlytemporary and will disappear when the camera is left unused for a few days.The LCD monitor display may seem slow in low temperatures, or look blackin high temperatures. It will return to normal at room temperature.
CardsTo 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.Do not touch the card’s electronic contacts with your fingers or anythingmetallic.Do not affix any stickers, etc., on the card.Do not store or use the card near anything having a strong magnetic fieldsuch as a TV set, speakers, or magnet. Also avoid places prone to havingstatic 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.
Lens After detaching the lens from the camera, put down thelens with the rear end up and attach the lens caps toavoid scratching the lens surface and electrical contacts.
Cautions Regarding Prolonged UseIf you use continuous shooting, Live View shooting, ormovie shooting for a prolonged period, the camera maybecome hot. Although this is not a malfunction, holdingthe hot camera for a long period can cause slight skinburns.
About Smudges Adhering to the Front of the Sensor Besides dust entering the camera from outside, in rare cases lubricant from thecamera’s internal parts may adhere to the front of the sensor. If visible spots still
remain after the automatic sensor cleaning, having the sensor cleaned by aCanon Service Center is recommended.

Charging the Battery
Upon purchase, the battery is not fully charged.
Recharge the battery before using.Recharge the battery on the day before or on the day it is to beused.Even during storage, a charged battery will gradually drain and loseits capacity.
After recharging the battery, detach it and disconnect thecharger from the power outlet.
When not using the camera, remove the battery.If the battery is left in the camera for a prolonged period, a smallamount of power current is released, resulting in excess dischargeand shorter battery life. Store the battery with the protective cover(provided) attached. Storing the battery when it is fully charged maylower the battery’s 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-availableplug adapter for the respective country or region. Do not attach anyportable voltage transformer to the battery charger. Doing so candamage the battery charger.
If the battery becomes exhausted quickly even after being fullycharged, the battery has reached the end of its service life.Purchase a new battery.
Tips for Using the Battery and Charger
After disconnecting the charger’s power plug, do not touch the prongs forat least 3 sec.Do not charge any battery other than a Battery Pack LP-E8.Battery Pack LP-E8 is dedicated to Canon products only.

When you use the IS lens’ built-in Image Stabilizer, camera shake iscorrected to obtain a sharper shot. The procedure explained here isbased on the EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens as an example.* IS stands for Image Stabilizer.
1 Set the IS switch to < 1 >. Also set the camera’s power switch to.
2 Press the shutter button halfway.The Image Stabilizer will operate.
3 Take the picture.When the picture looks steady in theviewfinder, press the shutter buttoncompletely to take the picture.
About the Lens Image Stabilizer
The Image Stabilizer cannot correct “subject blur”, when the subjectmoves at the time of exposure.For bulb exposures, set the IS switch to < 2 >. If < 1 > is set, ImageStabilizer misoperation may occur.The Image Stabilizer may not be effective for excessive shaking such ason a rocking boat.
The Image Stabilizer can operate with the lens focus mode switch set to
either < AF > or < MF>.When using a tripod, you can still shoot with the IS switch set to < 1 >with no problem. However, to save battery power, setting the IS switch to is recommended.The Image Stabilizer is effective even when the camera is mounted on amonopod.Some IS lenses enable you to switch the IS mode manually to suit theshooting conditions. However, the following lenses switch the IS modeautomatically:• EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM • EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM• EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II • EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS• EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM

Caution for < 6 > (Night Portrait) and < F > (Handheld Night Scene)During Live View shooting, it may be difficult to focus dots of light such asin a night scene. In such a case, you should set the AF method to [ Quick
mode ] and shoot. If it is still difficult to focus, set the lens’ focus modeswitch to [ MF] and focus manually.
Cautions for < F > (Handheld Night Scene)When shooting flash photography, if the subject is too close to thecamera, the picture may come out extremely bright (overexposure).If you use flash to shoot a night scene with few lights, the shots may notalign correctly. This can result in a blurry photo.If you use flash and the human subject is close to the background which
is also illuminated by the flash, the shots may not align correctly. Thiscan result in a blurry photo. Unnatural shadows and unsuitable colorsmay also appear.Shooting with an external Speedlite• When using a Speedlite with automatic flash coverage setting, the zoom
position will be fixed to the wide end, regardless of the lens’ zoom position.• When using a Speedlite with manual flash coverage switch, shoot with
the flash head retracted to the wide (normal) position.
Cautions for < G > (HDR Backlight Control)Note that the image may not be rendered with a smooth gradation andmay look irregular or have significant noise.HDR Backlight Control may not be effective for excessively backlitscenes or extremely high-contrast scenes.
