Slurred motion Frozen action (Slow shutter speed: 1/30 sec.) (Fast shutter speed: 1/2000 sec.) Set the Mode Dial to . Set the desired shutter speed. See "Shooting Tips" for advice on setting the shutter speed. Turning the <_> dial to the right sets a faster shutter speed, and turning it to the left sets a slower one. Take the picture.
Tv: Action Shots To freeze the action or moving subject. Use a fast shutter speed such as 1/4000 sec. to 1/500 sec. To blur a running child or animal giving the impression of fast movement. Use a medium shutter speed such as 1/250 sec. to 1/30 sec. Follow the moving subject through the viewfinder and press the shutter button to take the picture. If you use a telephoto lens, hold it steady to prevent camera shake. How to blur a flowing river or water fountain. Use a slow shutter speed of 1/30 sec.

A higher aperture f/number will make the shutter speed slower. Under low light, the shutter speed can be as long as 30 sec. In such cases, increase the ISO speed and hold the camera steady or use a tripod.
Av: Changing the Depth of Field To obtain a correct flash exposure, the flash output wiii be set automatically to match the set aperture (autoflash exposure). The shutter speed wiii be set automatically between 1/200 sec. - 30 sec. to suit the scene's brightness. in low light, the main subject is exposed with the automatic flash, and the background is exposed with a slow shutter speed set automatically.

This mode sets the depth of field automatically. Set the Mode Dial to . Focus the subject. Aim the AF points over the subjects and press the shutter button halfway ((_4).
E_3 Changing the Metering Mode _ Three methods (metering modes) to measure the subject's brightness are provided. Normally, evaluative metering is recommended. In Basic Zone modes, evaluative metering is set automatically. Select [Metering mode]. Under the [_:] tab, select [Metering mode], then press <_-_>. Sett.emetering mode. Select the desired metering mode, then press <_-_>. [_8"1Evaluative metering This is an all-around metering mode suited for portraits and even backlit subjects.
Setting Exposure Compensation _ Set exposure compensation if the exposure (without flash) does not come out as desired. This feature can be used in Creative Zone modes (except ). You can set the exposure compensation up to +5 stops in 1/3-stop increments. Making it brighter: Hold down the < Avl_> button and increased exposurefora brighterimage turn the <_> dial to the right. (Increased exposure) Making it darker: Hold down the button and turn the <_> dial to the left.
Setting Exposure Compensation * Set flash exposure compensation if the flash exposure of the subject does not come out as desired.

Press the <_;_> key to select [8_*]. [Flash exposure comp.] will be displayed at the bottom. i: Set the flash compensation exposure amount.
Auto Exposure Bracketing _ This feature takes exposure compensation a step further by varying the exposure automatically (up to _+2stops in 1/3-stop increments) with three shots as shown below. You can then choose the best exposure. This is called AEB (Auto Exposure Bracketing). Standard exposure Darker exposure (Decreased exposure) Select [Expo.

Locking the Exposure* You can lock the exposure when the area of focus is to be different from the exposure metering area or when you want to take multiple shots at the same exposure setting. Press the <=X=>button to lock the exposure, then recompose and take the shot. This is called AE (autoexposure) lock. It is effective for bacHit subjects. Focus the subject. Press the shutter button halfway. The exposure setting will be displayed. Press the < % > button.
=X- Locking the Flash Exposure _ If the subject is on the side of the frame and you use flash, the subject may turn out to be too bright or dark depending on the background, etc. This is when you should use FE lock. After setting the proper flash exposure for the subject, you can recompose (put the subject toward the side) and shoot. This feature can also be used with a Canon EX-series Speedlite. * FE stands for Flash Exposure. Press the < _ > button. The built-in flash will rise.
Correcting the Brightness andContrast Automatically _ If the image comes out dark or the contrast is low, the brightness and contrast can be corrected automatically. This feature is called Auto Lighting Optimizer. The default setting is [Standard]. With JPEG images, the correction is done when the image is captured. For RAW images, it can be corrected with Digital Photo Professional (provided software, p.270). Select [Auto Under Lighting < _'_ Optimizer], the Select < _'_ Optimizer].
Correcting the image's Dark Corners Due to the lens characteristics, the four corners of the picture might look darker. This phenomenon is called lens light faIFoff or drop in peripheral Mumination and can be corrected automatically. The defaWt setting is [Enable]. With JPEG images, the correction is done when the image is captured. For RAW images, it can be corrected with Digital Photo Professional (provided software, p.270). Se,ect [Peripher.I ,I.mi.. correct.].
Correcting theImage's Dark Corners The camera already contains lens peripheral illumination correction data for about 25 lenses. In step 2, if you select [Enable], the peripheral light correction will be applied automatically for any lens whose correction data has been registered in the camera. With EOS Utility (provided software, p.270), lenses have their correction data registered register the correction data for unregistered Software Instruction Manual (CD-ROM) for you can check which in the camera.
