    3 Noise Reduction Settings N
    Noise reduction is possible with images exposed for 1 sec. or longer.
    1Select [Long exp. noise 
    reduction].
     Under the [ z4] tab, select [Long 
    exp. noise reduction ], then press 
    < 0 >.
    2Set the desired setting.
      Select the desired setting, then press 
    .
    XThe setting screen closes and the 
    menu will reappear.
      [Auto]
    For 1 sec. or longer exposures , noise reduction is performed 
    automatically if noise typical of  long exposures is detected. This 
    [Auto] setting is effective in most cases.
      [Enable]
    Noise reduction is performed for all  exposures of 1 sec. or longer. 
    The [ Enable ] setting may be able to r educe noise that cannot be 
    detected with the [ Auto] setting.
    3Take the picture.
     The image will be recorded with noise 
    reduction applied.

    You can minimize overexposed highlight areas.
    1Select [Highlight tone priority].
     Under the [ z4] tab, select 
    [Highlight tone priority ], then press 
    < 0 >.
    2Select [Enable].
      Select [Enable ], then press .
      Highlight details are improved. The 
    dynamic range is expanded from the 
    standard 18% gray to bright 
    highlights. The gradation between the 
    grays and highlights becomes 
    smoother.

    Peripheral light fall-off is a phenomenon that makes the image corners 
    look darker due to the lens characteri stics. Color fringing along subject 
    outlines is called chromatic aberra tion. Both lens aberrations can be 
    corrected. The default settings are [ Enable] for both corrections.
    1Select [Lens aberration 
    correction].
     Under the [ z2] tab, select [Lens 
    aberration correction ], then press 
    < 0 >.
    2Select the setting.
      Check that [ Correction data 
    available ] is displayed for the 
    attached lens.
      Select [Peripheral illumin. ], then 
    press < 0>.
      Select [Enable ], then press .
      If [Correction data not available] is 
    displayed, see “About the Lens 
    Correction Data” on page 94.
    3Take the picture.
      The image will be recorded with the 
    peripheral illumination corrected.

    1Select the setting.
     Check that [ Correction data 
    available ] is displayed for the 
    attached lens.
      Select [Chromatic aberration ], then 
    press < 0>.
      Select [Enable ], then press .
      If [Correction data not available] is 
    displayed, see “About the Lens 
    Correction Data” below.
    2Take the picture.
      The image will be recorded with the 
    chromatic aberration corrected.
    The camera already contains lens  peripheral illumination correction 
    data and chromatic aberration correction data for approx. 25 lenses. If 
    you select [ Enable], the peripheral illumination correction and 
    chromatic aberration correction will be applied automatically for any 
    lens whose correction data is registered in the camera.
    With EOS Utility (provided software),  you can check which lenses have 
    their correction data registered in th e camera. You can also register the 
    correction data for unregistered lenses. For details, refer to the 
    Software Instruction Manual (CD-ROM) for EOS Utility Instruction 
    Manual (p.135).

    Advanced Operations
    In Creative Zone modes, you 
    can set the shutter speed and/or 
    aperture to set the exposure as 
    desired. By changing the 
    camera settings, you can obtain 
    various results.
     The  M icon at the upper right of the page title indicates that 
    the function is available only in Creative Zone modes ( d/
    s /f /a/F ).
      After you press the shutter  button halfway and let go, the 
    exposure values will remain di splayed in the viewfinder and 
    on the LCD panel for 4 sec. ( 0).
    Set the < R> switch to the left.

    The camera automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture to suit 
    the subject’s brightness. This is called Program AE.
    *< d> stands for Program.* AE stands for Auto Exposure.
    1Set the Mode Dial to < d>.
    2Focus the subject.
      Look through the viewfinder and aim 
    the selected AF point over the 
    subject. Then press the shutter button 
    halfway.
    XThe AF point which achieves focus 
    flashes in red, and the focus 
    confirmation light < o> in the 
    viewfinder’s bottom right lights up 
    (when in One-Shot AF mode).
    XThe shutter speed and aperture will 
    be set automatically and displayed in 
    the viewfinder and on the LCD panel.
    3Check the display.
      A standard exposure will be obtained 
    as long as the shutter speed and 
    aperture display do not blink.
    4Take the picture.
     Compose the shot and press the 
    shutter button completely.

    In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera automatically 
    sets the aperture to obtain the standa rd exposure suiting the brightness 
    of the subject. This is called shutter-priority AE. A faster shutter speed 
    can freeze the action or a moving subject. A slower shutter speed can 
    create a blurred effect, giving the impression of motion.
    * < s > stands for Time value.
    1Set the Mode Dial to < s>.
    2Set the desired shutter speed.
     While looking at the LCD panel, turn 
    the < 6> dial.
    3Focus the subject.
     Press the shutter button halfway.XThe aperture is set automatically.
    4Check the viewfinder display and 
    shoot.
     As long as the aperture is not 
    blinking, a standard exposure will be 
    obtained.

    In this mode, you set the desired aperture and the ca mera sets the shutter 
    speed automatically to obtain the  standard exposure suiting the subject 
    brightness. This is called aperture-p riority AE. A higher f/number (smaller 
    aperture hole) will make more of t he foreground and background fall within 
    acceptable focus. On the other hand,  a lower  f/number (larger aperture hole) 
    will make less of the foreground and ba ckground fall within acceptable focus.

    In this mode, you set both the shutter speed and aperture as desired. To 
    determine the exposure, refer to the exposure level indicator in the 
    viewfinder or use a commercially-available exposure meter. This 
    method is called manual exposure.
    *  stands for Manual.
    1Set the Mode Dial to < a>.
    2Set the ISO speed (p.86).
    3Set the shutter speed and 
    aperture.
      To set the shutter speed, turn the 
     dial.
     
    To set the aperture, turn the  dial.  If it cannot be set, set the < R> 
    switch to the left, then turn the < 6> 
    or < 5> dial.
    4Focus the subject.
      Press the shutter button halfway.XThe exposure setting will be displayed 
    in the viewfinder and on the LCD panel.
     The exposure level mark  indicates 
    how far the current exposure level is 
    from the standard exposure level.
    5Set the exposure and take the 
    picture.
      Check the exposure level indicator 
    and set the desired shutter speed and 
    aperture.

    stops, the end of the exposure level 
    indicator will display < I> or .

    Exposure compensation can brighten (increased exposure) or darken 
    (decreased exposure) the standard exposure set by the camera.
    Exposure compensation can be set in the d/s /f  shooting modes. 
    Although you can set the exposure co mpensation up to ±5 stops in 1/3-
    stop increments, the exposure compens ation indicator in the viewfinder 
    and on the LCD panel can only display  the setting up to ±3 stops. If you 
    want to set the exposure compensation setting beyond ±3 stops, you 
    should use the Quick Control (p.45) or follow the instructions for [z 3: 
    Expo.comp./AEB].
    1Check the exposure level 
    indicator.
     Press the shutter button halfway 
    (0 ) and check the exposure level 
    indicator.
    2Set the exposure compensation 
    amount.
      While looking at the viewfinder or 
    LCD panel, turn the < 5> dial.
      If it cannot be set, set the < R> 
    switch to the left, then turn the < 5> 
    dial.
    3Take the picture.
      To cancel the exposure 
    compensation, set the exposure 
    compensation amount back to < E>.
