▶
Flash button ( ).
You have more control over your camera
when using the
Creative Zone modes because they prevent the pop-up fl ash from activating,
even if it’s dark. If you need additional light and don’t have an external fl ash,
press the Flash button ( ) to activate the built-in fl ash.
▶
Depth-of-Field Preview button (
).
It is sometimes helpful to know what the
depth of fi eld in your photo will look like in advance. The Depth-of-Field Preview
button (
) closes down the aperture so you can see the depth of fi eld before
you take your picture. In other words, you can see which parts of your image are
in and out of focus.
▶
Red-eye Reduction/Self-timer lamp.
When Red-eye reduction is enabled, this
lamp lights up when you press the shutter button. To enable this option, press
the Menu button (
), and then select Red-eye reduc., located at the bottom
of Shooting menu 1 (
). This lamp also blinks during the Self-timer (
) expo-
sure countdown if you enable that option.
▶
Remote Control sensor.
Point a camera remote (such as the RC-6) at this loca-
tion to trigger your camera’s shutter.
▶
Lens Release button.
Press this button (on the right side of the front of your
camera) to release the lens, and then turn the lens counterclockwise to remove
it. Remember to hold onto both the lens and the camera. To attach a Canon-
dedicated lens, point the camera away from you. Rotate the lens until the red or
white dots on both the camera and lens are aligned. Attach the lens to the cam-
era lens mount, and then turn the lens to the left until you hear a click and the
lens stops turning.
The Back of the Camera
The back of your camera is where the action takes place. Most of the options and
controls are accessible from here, including menus, photo information, and standard
functions. The LCD touchscreen adds additional functionality compared to other
cameras — many standard functions are available just by touching an icon on the
screen. The available menu options depend on which mode you are using. For exam-
ple, you have fewer menu options when you use the Basic Zone modes.
