Preliminary Notes and Legal Information

● Take and review some test shots initially to make sure the images
were recorded correctly. Please note that Canon Inc., its subsidiaries
and afliates, and its distributors are not liable for any consequential
damages arising from any malfunction of a camera or accessory, including memory cards, that result in the failure of an image to be recorded or to be recorded in a way that is machine readable.
● Images recorded by the camera shall be for personal use. Refrain
from unauthorized recording that infringes on copyright law, and note that even for personal use, photography may contravene copyright or other legal rights at some performances or exhibitions, or in some commercial settings.
● The camera warranty is valid only in the area of purchase. In case of
camera problems while abroad, return to the area of purchase before contacting a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
● Although the LCD monitor is produced under extremely high-precision
manufacturing conditions and more than 99.99% of the pixels meet
design specications, in rare cases some pixels may be defective
or may appear as red or black dots. This does not indicate camera damage or affect recorded images.
The LCD monitor may be covered with a thin plastic lm for protection
against scratches during shipment. If covered, remove the lm before
using the camera.
● When the camera is used over an extended period, it may become
warm. This is not a malfunction.

This could result in electrical shock or re. If the product gets wet, or if liquid or foreign objects get inside, remove the
battery pack/batteries or unplug immediately.
Do not look through the viewnder or interchangeable lens (depending
on which your product has) at intense light sources, such as the sun
on a clear day or an intense articial light source.
This could damage your eyesight.
● If your product uses an interchangeable lens, do not leave the lens or
camera with the lens attached out in the sun without the lens cap on.
This could result in re.
Do not touch the product during thunderstorms if it is plugged in.
This could result in electrical shock or re. Immediately stop using the
product and distance yourself from it.
● Use only the recommended battery pack/batteries.
Do not place the battery pack/batteries near or in direct ame.
This may cause the battery pack/batteries to explode or leak, resulting in

Unexpected results may occur if there is signicant misalignment
in the image due to camera shake. Securing the camera with a tripod or other means is recommended.
● If you shoot a moving subject, the subject’s movement may leave
afterimages or the surrounding area of the subject may become dark.
● Depending on shooting conditions, noise may appear on the
image periphery.
● This cannot be used with AEB, [Long exp. noise reduction], during
RAW image shooting, or bulb shooting. If any of these is already in use, [Multi Shot Noise Reduction] will not be available.
