COPY
The EOS-1D X is the top-of-the-line EOS DIGITAL high-performance
digital single-lens reflex camera featuring a full-frame (approx. 36 x 24
mm) CMOS sensor with approx. 18.1 effective megapixels, Dual DIGIC
5+, normal ISO speed range of ISO 100 - 51200, approx. 100%
viewfinder coverage, high-precision and high-speed 61-point AF,
approx. 12 fps high-speed continuous shooting, RGB metering sensor,
3.2-inch LCD monitor, Live View shooting, and Full High-Definition (Full
HD) movie shooting.
The camera is highly responsive to any shooting situation, provides
many features for demanding shots, is highly reliable even in harsh
environments, and is compatible with a wide range of accessories that
expand shooting possibilities.
Refer to This Manual while Using the Camera to Further
Familiarize Yourself with the Camera
With a digital camera, you can immediately view the image you have
captured. While reading this manual, take a few test shots and see how
they come out. You can then better understand the camera.
To avoid botched pictures and accidents, first read the “Safety
Warnings” (p.413, 414) and “Handling Precautions” (p.14, 15).
Testing the Camera Before Use and Liability
After shooting, play images back and check whether they have been
properly recorded. If the camera or memory card is faulty and the
images cannot be recorded or downloaded to a computer, Canon
cannot be held liable for any loss or inconvenience caused.
Copyrights
Copyright laws in your country may prohibit the use of your recorded
images of people and certain subjects for anything but private
enjoyment. Also be aware that certain public performances, exhibitions,
etc., may prohibit photography even for private enjoyment.
CF Card
In this manual, “card” refers to a CF card. The CF card (for recording
images) is not included. Please purchase it separately.

Handling Precautions
COPY
Camera Care
This camera is a precision instrument. Do not drop it or subje ct it to physical
shock.
The camera is not waterproof and cannot be used underwater. If you
accidentally drop the camera into water, promptly consult your nearest
Canon Service Center. Wipe off any water droplets with a dry cloth. If the
camera has been exposed to salty air, wipe it with a well -wrung wet cloth.
Never leave the camera near anything having a strong magnetic field such
as a magnet or electric motor. Also avoid using or leaving the camera near
anything emitting strong radio waves such as a large antenna. Strong
magnetic fields can cause camera misoperation or destroy image data.
Do not leave the camera in excessive heat such as in a car in direct sunlight.
High temperatures can cause the camera to malfunction.
T he camera contains precision electronic circuitry. Never attempt to
disassemble the camera yourself.
Do not block the mirror operation with your finger, etc. Doing so may cause a
malfunction.
Use a blower to blow away dust on the lens, viewfinder, reflex mirror, and
focusing screen. Do not use cleaners that contain organic solvents to clean
the camera body or lens. For stubborn dirt, take the camera to the nearest
Canon Service Center.
Do not touch the camera’s electrical contacts with your fingers. This is to
prevent the contacts from corroding. Corroded contacts can cause camera
misoperation.
If the camera is suddenly brought in from the cold into a warm room,
condensation may form on the camera and internal parts. To prevent
condensation, first put the camera in a sealed plastic bag and let it adjust to
the warmer temperature before taking it out of the bag.
If condensation forms on the camera, do not use the camera. This is to avoid
damaging the camera. If there is condensation, remove the lens, card and
battery from the camera, and wait until the condensation has evaporated
before using the camera.
If the camera will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery
and store the camera in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location. Even while the
camera is in storage, press the shutter button a few times once in a while to
check that the camera is still working.
Avoid storing the camera where there are corrosive chemicals such as a
darkroom or chemical lab.
If the camera has not been used for an extended period, test all it s functi ons
before using it. If you have not used the camera for some time or if there is
an important shoot coming up, have the camera checked by your Canon
dealer or check the camera yourself and make sure it is working properly.

Handling Precautions
COPY
LCD Panel and LCD Monitor
Although the LCD monitor is manufactured with very high precision
technology with over 99.99% effective pixels, there may be a f ew dead pixels
among the remaining 0.01% or less pixels. Dead pixels displaying only black
or red, etc., 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 occur
where you see remnants of what was displayed. However, this is only
temporary and will disappear when the camera is left unused for a few days.
In low or high temperatures, the LCD monitor display may seem slow or it
may look black. It will return to normal at room temperature.
Cards
To 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 store or use the card near anything having a strong magnetic field
such as a TV set, speakers, or magnet. Also avoid places prone to having
static 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 ca mera, att ach the lens
caps and put down the lens with the re ar end up t o avoi d
scratching the lens surface and electrical contacts.
Cautions During Prolonged Use
If you use continuous shooting, Live View shooting, or movie shooting for a
prolonged period, the camera may become hot. Although this is not a
malfunction, holding the hot camera for a long period can cause slight skin
burns.

Getting Started
This chapter explains preparatory steps before you start
shooting and basic camera operations.
Attaching the Strap
Pass the end of the strap through the camera’s strap mount
eyelet from the bottom. Then pass it through the strap’s buckle
as shown in the illustration. Pull the strap to take up any slack
and make sure the strap will not loosen from the buckle.

Charging the Battery
COPY
Connect the charger to a power outlet.
1
Connect the power plug to a power
outlet, and connect the power cord to
the charger.
When no battery is attached, all the
indicator lamps will be off.
Remove the protective covers.
2
As shown in the illustration, detach
the charger’s protective cover
(provided) and the battery’s protective
cover (provided).
Recharge the battery.
3
Slide the battery into the charger’s
slot as shown by the arrow, and make
sure it is securely attached.
You can attach the battery to slot A or B.
X The battery will start recharging and
the green status lamp will blink.
X When the battery is fully charged, all
three Charge level indicators will light
up (50%/80%/100%).
It takes approx. 130 min. for LP-E4N and approx. 120 min. for LPE4 to fully recharge a completely exhausted battery at 23°C/73°F.
The time required to recharge the battery will vary greatly
depending on the ambient temperature and the battery’s
remaining capacity.
The LC-E4N charger cannot charge any battery other than the Battery
Pack LP-E4N/LP-E4.
Depending on the battery’s condition, charge may not reach 100%.
