Logging the Route Traveled
Geotag information for the route the camera travels is recorded at the 
intervals set with [Position update intvl ] (p.236). The log data is saved 
in the camera’s internal memory by date. The table below shows how 
many days’ worth of data can be saved.
Log Data Capacity by Positioning Interval (Approx.)
* Based on 1 day equivalent to eight hours worth of log data.
 The log data saved in the internal memory can be transferred as a 
log file to a card (p.240).

The log data in the camera’s internal memory can be downloaded to a 
computer with EOS Utility (EOS software, p.598) or downloaded from a 
card after transferring the data to the card.
When you use Map Utility (EOS software, p.598) to open a log file 
saved on the computer, the camera’s tr avel route will be displayed on a 
map.

 When connecting the camera to a computer, use the provided interface 
cable or one from Canon (p.525). When connecting the interface cable, 
use the provided cable protector (p.38).
  The GPS antenna is located at the top of the camera body. For this 
reason, even when carrying the camera, such as in a bag, try to keep the 
top of the camera facing upwards, and do not place anything on top of it.

Advanced Operations
for Photographic Effects
In the < d>, < s>, < f >, 
< a >, and < F>
 modes, you 
can change various settings of 
the camera as you desire to 
obtain a wide variety of 
shooting results, by selecting 
the shutter speed and/or 
aperture, adjusting the 
exposure as you prefer, etc.
  A M  icon at the upper right of a page title indicates a 
function that can be used only in the following modes: < d> 
< s >   < F>.
  After you press the shutter button halfway and let go, the...

The camera automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture to suit 
the subject’s brightness. This is called Program AE.
* stands for Program.* AE stands for Auto Exposure.
1Set the Mode Dial to < d>.
2Focus on the subject.
  Look through the viewfinder and aim 
the AF point over the subject. Then 
press the shutter button halfway.
X When focus is achieved, the focus 
indicator < o> in the viewfinder will 
light up (in One-Shot AF mode).

d: Program AE
  If the “ 30” shutter speed and the lowest f/number 
blink, it indicates underexposure.
Increase the ISO speed or use flash.
  If the “ 8000” shutter speed and the highest f/number 
blink, it indicates overexposure.
Lower the ISO speed or use an ND filter (sold 
separately) to reduce the amount of light entering the 
lens.
Differences Between < d> and < A> ModesIn the < A> mode, many functions, such as the AF operation and metering 
mode, are set automatically to prevent  spoiled...

In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera automatically 
sets the aperture to obtain the standard exposure matching the 
brightness of the subject. This is called shutter-priority AE. A faster 
shutter speed can freeze the acti on of a moving subject. A slower 
shutter speed can create a blurred effect, giving the impression of 
motion.
* < s > stands for Time value.

the viewfinder, turn...

s: Shutter-Priority AE
 If the lowest f/number blinks, it indicates 
underexposure.
Turn the < 6> dial to set a slower shutter speed until 
the aperture stops blinking or set a higher ISO speed.
  If the highest f/number blinks, it indicates 
overexposure.
Turn the < 6> dial to set a faster shutter speed until 
the aperture stops blinking or set a lower ISO speed.
Shutter Speed Display
The shutter speeds from “ 8000” to “4” indicate the denominator of the 
fractional shutter speed. For example, “...

248
In this mode, you set the desired aperture and the camera sets the 
shutter speed automatically to obtain the standard exposure matching 
the subject brightness. This is  called aperture-priority AE. A higher 
f/number (smaller aperture hole) will make more of the 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 
background fall within acceptable focus.
