eview, hold down the Print/Share button and press the Magnify button to magnify the

mage. Once magnified, the AF point selector enlarges and the AE lock button reduces

he image. When option 1 is selected but the image has not been magnified, these two

uttons retain their regular functions.

.Fn-02, Long exposure noise reduction, now has 3 options: Off, Auto and On.

lease see “Noise Reduction” for a discussion of this feature.

ote that, when C.Fn-12-1 (mirror lockup) is set, the camera should not be pointed

toward the sun or any bright light source. Doing so could damage the shutter curtains,

causing stray light to enter or damage the imaging sensor.

White balance controls are the same as on the

EOS 20D. The modes are Auto (AWB, approx. 3000-

7000K), six Preset settings (Daylight, approx. 5200K;

Shade, approx. 7000K; Cloudy/twilight/sunset, approx.

6000K; Tungsten, approx. 3200K; White fluorescent,

approx. 4000K; Flash, approx. 6000K), and two

manual modes (Custom: photograph a white subject

serving as the WB standard and use the [Custom WB] menu to specify that image as the

standard; Color Temperature: specify directly from the [Color temp.] menu).

WB correction (Blue/amber or Magenta/green, +/- 9 levels, set with the multi-controller)

can be applied to any of these settings within a range of 2000 to 10000K. WB

bracketing can be enabled for three images at the current color temperature setting,

then blue bias and then amber bias or current color temperature setting, then magenta

bias and then green bias. The range is +/- 3 stops in one-stop increments. Because

three images are recorded with one press of the shutter button, write times to the CF

card increase proportionally. Also, when WB-BKT is set, the shots remaining will

decrease to about one-third of the normal quantity. With C.Fn-09 [Bracketing sequence/

Auto cancel], the bracketing sequence can be changed and the bracketing can be

canceled automatically.
