Canon PowerShot G1/G2/G3/G5
Recommended Camera settings for OneShot360™
Attach the OneShot360 unit, and power the camera on.
•
Zoom:
Use the Zoom to exactly fill the digital camera LCD viewer screen
with the circular image. Use the zoom lever on the top of the camera,
around the shutter button. If you zoom in too much, you will lose part of
the field of view. If you zoom in too little, you will not get maximum
resolution. Note also that the OneShot image may not be exactly centered
in the LCD screen – this is normal.
•
Flash:
Make sure the flash is disabled by pressing the flash/index button
(lightning bolt symbol) located above the LCD screen on the upper left of
the back of the camera. Press the button until you see the “flash off” icon
on the LCD.
•
ISO setting:
RemoteReality recommends using ISO sensitivity of 100 or
less.
•
Focus:
To focus your OneShot image, use the Manual Focus function.
Adjust the focal distance until a setting of 3 meters (or 9 ¾ ft.) is displayed
on the LCD screen.
•
Aperture:
Put your Canon PowerShot camera in
aperture
priority mode
by turning the top mode dial to Av, the symbol for aperture priority. Adjust
the Omni Selector left/right to an f-stop of 7.1.
•
White Balance:
Set the white balance by pushing the +/- WB button (to
the right of the LCD screen) twice. Then select AWB for Auto White
Balance, which is fine for most shots.
NOTE:
You can use shutter priority mode, as long as you use a shutter speed
that would give you the desired f# of 7.1. Also, make sure you are using a tripod
when shooting with a slow shutter speed.
Press the MENU button and use arrow buttons to:

of the camera.
