C.Fn I: Exposure
C.Fn I -1 Exposure level increments
0: 1/3-stop
1: 1/2-stop
Sets 1/2-stop increments for the shutter speed, aperture, exposure 
compensation, AEB, flash exposure compensation, etc. This is 
effective when you prefer to control the exposure in less fine 
increments than 1/3-stop increments.
C.Fn I -2 ISO speed setting increments
0: 1/3-stopYou can set the ISO speed manually in 1/3-stop increments.1: 1-stopYou can set the ISO speed manually in 1-stop increments.
C.Fn I -3 Bracketing auto cancel
0: OnWhen you set the power switch to , the AEB and white 
balance bracketing settings will be  canceled. AEB will also be 
canceled when the flash is ready to  fire or if you switch to movie 
shooting.
1: OffThe AEB and white balance bracketing settings will not be 
canceled even if you set the power switch to . (If the flash 
is ready to fire or if you switch to movie shooting, AEB will be 
canceled temporarily, but the AEB range will be retained.)
When [ 1: 1/2-stop ] is set, the exposure level will be displayed in the 
viewfinder and on the LCD panel as shown below.
Even if [ 1: 1-stop] is set, ISO speed will be automatically set in 1/3-stop 
increments when ISO Auto is set.

C.Fn I -5 Number of bracketed shots
The number of shots taken with AEB  and white balance bracketing can 
be changed from the default 3 shots to 2, 5, or 7 shots.
When [

taken as shown in the table below.

C.Fn I -6 Safety shift
0: Disable
1: Shutter speed/Aperture
Takes effect in the  shutter-priority AE and  aperture-
priority AE modes. If the s ubject brightness changes and the 
standard exposure cannot be obtained within the autoexposure 
range, the camera will automatical ly change the manually-selected 
setting to obtain the standard exposure.
2: ISO speedWorks in the  Program AE,  shutter-priority AE, and 
<
f> aperture-priority AE modes.  If the subject brightness 
changes and the standard exposure cannot be obtained within the 
autoexposure range, the camera wi ll automatically change the 
manually set ISO speed to  obtain the standard exposure.
Under [ z2: ISO speed settings ], even if [Range for stills ] or [Min. 
shutter spd. ]  is changed from the default setting, safety shift will 
override it if the standard exposure cannot be obtained.
 The minimum and maximum ISO speeds of the safety shift using the ISO 
speed will be determined by the [ Auto range] setting (p.152). However, if 
the manually set ISO speed exceeds the [ Auto range], the safety shift 
will take effect up or down to the manually set ISO speed.
 Safety shift will take effect if  necessary even when flash is used.

C.Fn II: Autofocus
C.Fn II -1 Tracking sensitivity
Sets the subject-tracking sensitivity during 
AI Servo AF when an obstacle cuts across 
the AF points or when the AF points stray 
from the subject.
0: Default setting suited for most  subjects. Suitable for moving 
subjects in general.
Locked on: -2 / Locked on: -1The camera will try to continue focusing on the subject even if an 
obstacle cuts across the AF points or if the subject strays from the 
AF points. The -2 setting makes the camera keep tracking the 
target subject longer than the -1 setting.
However, if the camera focuses on a wrong subject, it may take 
slightly longer to switch and focus on the target subject.
Responsive: +2 / Responsive:+1The camera can focus consecutiv ely on subjects at different 
distances that are covered by the AF points. Also effective when 
you want to always focus on the cl osest subject. The +2 setting is 
more responsive than the +1 setting when focusing on the next 
subject.
However, the camera will be more prone to focus on an 
unintended subject.
[ Tracking sensitivity] is the feature named [ AI Servo tracking sensitivity] 
in the EOS-1D Mark III/IV, EOS-1Ds Mark III, and EOS 7D.

C.Fn II -2 Acceleration/deceleration tracking
This sets the tracking sensitivity for moving 
subjects whose speed can momentarily 
change dramatically by starting or stopping 
suddenly, etc.
0:Suited for subjects that move at  a steady speed (minor changes in 
moving speed).
+2 / +1:Effective for subjects having sudden movements, sudden 
acceleration/deceleration, or sudden stops. Even if the moving 
subject’s speed suddenly changes dramatically, the camera continues 
to focus on the target subject. For example, for an approaching 
subject, the camera becomes less prone to focus behind it to avoid 
subject blur. For a subject stopping suddenly, the camera becomes 
less prone to focus in front of it. Setting +2 can track dramatic changes 
in the moving subject’s speed better than with +1.
However, since the camera will be sensitive to even slight movements 
of the subject, the focusing may be unstable momentarily.
C.Fn II -3 AF point auto switching
This sets the switching sensitivity of the AF 
points as they trac k the subject moving 
dramatically up, down, left, or right.
This setting takes effect when the AF area 
selection mode is set to Zone AF (manual 
selection of zone), Large Zone AF (manual 
selection of zone), or 45-point automatic 
selection AF.
0:Standard setting for gradual AF point switching.+2 / +1:Even if the target subject moves dramatically up, down, left, or right and 
moves away from the AF point, the camera switches its focus to neighboring 
AF points to continue focusing on the subject. The camera switches to the 
AF point deemed most likely to focus on the subject based on the subject’s 
continual movement, contrast, etc. Setting +2 makes the camera more prone 
to switch the AF point than with +1.
However, with a wide-angle lens having a wide depth of field or if the subject 
is too small in the frame, the camera may focus with the wrong AF point.

C.Fn II -4 AI Servo 1st image priority
You can set the AF operation 
characteristics and shutter-release timing 
for the first shot with AI Servo AF.
Equal priority:Equal priority is given to focusing and shutter release.s:Release priorityPressing the shutter button takes  the picture immediately even if 
focus has not been achieved. Useful  when you want to give priority 
to capturing the image rat her than achieving focus.
t:Focus priorityPressing the shutter button does not take the picture until focus is achieved. 
Useful when you want to achieve focus before capturing the shot.
C.Fn II -5 AI Servo 2nd image priority
You can set the AF operation 
characteristics and shutter-release timing 
during continuous shooting after the first 
shot with AI Servo AF.
Equal priority:Equal priority is given to focusing and continuous shooting speed. In 
low light or with low-contrast subjects, shooting speed may slow down.
v:Shooting speed priorityPriority is given to the cont inuous shooting speed instead of 
achieving focus.
t:Focus priorityPriority is given to achieving focus instead of the continuous shooting 
speed. The picture will not be taken until focus is achieved.
Under shooting conditions which activate  anti-flicker shooting (p.179), even 
if [ Speed ] is set, the continuous shooti ng speed may become slower or the 
shooting interval may become irregular.

C.Fn II -6 AF-assist beam firing
Enables or disables the built-in flash’s AF-assist beam or the EOS-
dedicated external Speedlite’s AF-assist beam.
0: EnableThe AF-assist beam will be emitted when necessary.1: DisableThe AF-assist beam will not be emitted. This prevents the AF-
assist beam from disturbing others.
2: Enable external flash onlyIf an external Speedlite is attached, it will emit the AF-assist beam 
when necessary. The camera’s built-i n flash will not fire the AF-
assist beam.
3: IR AF assist beam onlyWhen an external Speedlite is attached, only the infrared AF-assist 
beam will be emitted. Set this when you do not want the camera to 
fire the AF-assist beam as  a burst of small flashes.
With an EX-series Speedlite equipped with an LED light, the LED 
light will not automatically  turn on for AF-assist.
C.Fn II -7 Lens drive when AF impossible
If focus cannot be achieved with  autofocus, you can have the camera 
keep searching for the correct fo cus or have it stop searching.
0: Continue focus search
1: Stop focus search
If autofocus starts and the focus is far off or if focus cannot be 
achieved, the lens drive stops. This prevents the lens from 
becoming grossly out of focus due to focus searching.
If the external Speedlite’s [ AF-assist beam firing] Custom Function is set 
to [ Disable ], this function’s setting will be overridden and the AF-assist 
beam will not be emitted.
 Super telephoto lenses, etc., with a wide focusing drive range can 
become grossly out of focus during  focus search, taking more time to 
achieve focus next time. Setting [ 1: Stop focus search] is 
recommended.
 Even if [ 0: Continue focus search ] is set, focus search may not be 
performed when a wide-angle lens is used.
