Canon Eos Rebel T5 1200 Instruction Manual

The range of reproducible colors is called the color space. With this 
camera, you can set the color space for captured images to sRGB or 
Adobe RGB. For normal shooting, sRGB is recommended.
In Basic Zone modes, sRGB is set automatically.
1Select [Color space].
  Under the [z 2] tab, select [Color 
space], then press < 0>.
2Set the desired color space.
  Select [ sRGB] or [Adobe RGB ], then 
press < 0>.
This color space is mainly used for commercial printing and other 
industrial uses. This setting is not  recommended if you are not familiar 
with image processing, Adobe RGB, and Design rule for Camera File 
System 2.0 (Exif 2.21 or higher). T he image will look very subdued in a 
sRGB computer environment and with printers not compatible with 
Design rule for Camera File System 2.0 (Exif 2.21 or higher). Post-
processing of the image with computer software will therefore be 
required.
3 Setting the Color Reproduction RangeN
Adobe RGB
  If the captured still photo was shot in the Adobe RGB color space, the 
first character in the file name will be an underscore “_”.
 
The ICC profile is not appended. Refer to explanations about the ICC 
profile in the Software Instruction Manual (p.321) on the CD-ROM.

Shooting with the LCD Monitor
(Live View Shooting)
You can shoot while viewing the picture on the camera’s 
LCD monitor. This is called “Live View shooting”.
Live View shooting is effective for still subjects which do 
not move.
If you handhold the camera and shoot while viewing the 
LCD monitor, camera shake can cause blurred images. 
Using a tripod is recommended.
Remote Live View ShootingWith EOS Utility (EOS software, p.318) installed on your computer, 
you can connect the camera to the computer and shoot remotely 
while viewing the computer screen. For details, refer to the Software 
Instruction Manual (p.321) on the CD-ROM.

1Display the Live View image.
 Press the < A> button.
X The Live View image will appear on 
the LCD monitor.
  The Live View image will closely 
reflect the brightness level of the 
actual image you capture.
2Focus on the subject.
 When you press the shutter button 
halfway, the camera will focus with 
the current AF method (p.142).
3Take the picture.
 Press the shutter button completely.
X The picture will be taken and the 
captured image will be displayed on 
the LCD monitor.
X After the image review ends, the 
camera will return to Live View 
shooting automatically.
  Press the < A> button to exit the 
Live View shooting.
A  Shooting with  the LCD Monitor
 The image’s field of view is approx. 100% (when the image-recording 
quality is set to JPEG  73).
  The metering mode will be fixed to evaluative metering for Live View 
shooting.
  In Creative Zone modes, you can check the depth of field by setting [ 9: 
Assign SET button ] under [53: Custom Functions (C.Fn) ] to [4: 
Depth-of-field preview ].
  During continuous shooting , the exposure set for the first shot will also 
be applied to subsequent shots.

Number of Possible Shots with Live View Shooting (Approx. number of shots)
 The figures above are based on a fully -charged Battery Pack LP-E10 and CIPA 
(Camera & Imaging Products Association) testing standards.
  With a fully-charged Battery Pack LP-E10,  continuous Live View shooting is 
possible for approx. 1 hr. 25 min. at room temperature (23°C / 73°F).

 Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun 
on a sunny day or an intense artificial light source. Doing so may 
damage the image sensor or the camera’s internal components.
  Cautions for using Live View shooting are on pages 151-152.
 When flash is used, there will be two shutter sounds, but only one shot 
will be taken. Also, the time to take  the picture after you press the shutter 
button completely will be slightly longer than with viewfinder shooting.
  If the camera is not operated for a prolonged period, the power will turn 
off automatically after the time set in [ 51: Auto power off] (p.181). If 
[ 51: Auto power off ] is set to [Disable], Live View shooting will end 
automatically after 30 min. (camera power remains on).
  With an HDMI cable (sold separately),  you can display the Live View 
image on a TV set (p.222).

  When < g> is displayed in white, it indi cates that the Live View image 
brightness is close to what the captured image will look like.
  If  is blinking, it indicates that the Live View image is displayed at 
a brightness that differs from the actual shooting result because of low- 
or bright-light conditions. However,  the actual image recorded will reflect 
the exposure setting. Note that noise may be more noticeable than the 
actual image recorded.
  If flash is used or bulb is set, the < g> icon and histogram will be 
grayed out (for your reference). The histogram may not be properly 
displayed in low- or bright-light conditions.

 Aspect ratio N
The image’s aspect ratio can be set to [ 3:2], [4:3 ], [16:9 ], or [1:1 ]. 
The area surrounding the Live View image is masked in black when 
the following aspect ratios are set: [ 4:3] [16:9 ] [1:1].
JPEG images will be saved with t he set aspect ratio. RAW images 
will always be saved with the [ 3:2] aspect ratio. The selected aspect 
ratio information is added to the RAW image file. When you process 
the RAW image with the EOS software, this allows you to generate 
an image with the same aspect ratio that was set for shooting. In the 
case of the [4:3 ], [16:9 ], and [ 1:1] aspect ratios, the aspect-ratio 
lines will appear during image playback,  but the lines are not actually 
drawn on the image.

  The asterisked image-recording quality settings do not match the 
respective aspect ratio exactly.
  The image area displayed for the asteri sked aspect ratio is slightly larger 
than the recorded area. Check the captured images on the LCD monitor 
when shooting.
  If you use a different camera to directly print images shot with this 
camera in the 1:1 aspect ratio, the images may not be correctly printed.
