3 Lens Peripheral Illumination Correction
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 the EOS Utility (provided softwa re), you can check which lenses 
have their correction data registered in the camera. You can also 
register the correction data for unregi stered lenses. For details, see the 
Software Instruction Manual  (CD-ROM) for EOS Utility.
About the Lens Correction Data
 Lens peripheral light correction  cannot be applied to JPEG images 
already captured.
  Depending on shooting conditions , noise might appear on the image 
periphery.
  When using a third-pa rty lens, setting the correction to [ Disable] is 
recommended, even if [ Correction data available] is displayed.
 Lens peripheral light co rrection is applied even when an Extender is 
attached.
  If the correction data for the attached  lens has not been registered to the 
camera, the result will be  the same as when the correction is set to 
[ Disable ].
  The correction amount applied will be  slightly lower than the maximum 
correction amount settable with Di gital Photo Professional (provided 
software).
  If the lens does not have distance in formation, the correction amount will 
be lower.
  The higher the ISO speed, the lowe r the correction amount will be.

The camera’s mechanical shake caused by the reflex mirror action can 
affect images taken with a super telephoto lens or close-up (macro) 
lens. In such cases, mi rror lockup is effective.
Mirror lockup is enabled by selecting the [
7 Custom Functions 
(C.Fn)] menu’s [Mirror lockup] an d setting it to [1: Enable] (p.187).
1 Focus the subject, press the shutter button completely 
and release it.
X The mirror will swing up.
2 Press the shutter button completely again.
XThe picture is taken and the mirror goes back down.
  Using the self-timer < l> with mirror lockup.
When you press the shutter button completely, the mirror locks up, 
then the picture is taken 2 sec. later.
  Remote control shooting.
Since you do not touch the camera when the picture is taken, remote 
control shooting together with mirror lockup can further prevent 
camera shake. With Remote Cont roller RC-5, pressing the transmit 
button locks up the mirror before the shot is taken 2 sec. later. With 
Remote Controller RC-1, set it to 2-sec. delay, then shoot.
Preventing Camera Shake N
Shooting Tips
 Do not point the camera  toward the sun. The sun’s heat can scorch and 
damage the shutter curtains.
 
If you use bulb exposures, the self-timer, and mirror lockup in combination, keep 
pressing the shutter button completely (self-timer delay time + bulb exposure time). If 
you let go of the shutter button during the  self-timer countdown, there will be a shutter-
release sound. However, this is not the act ual shutter release (no picture is taken).
 Even if < i> (Continuous shooting) has been  set, single shooting will 
still take effect.
 
The mirror locks up, and after  30 seconds, it will go back down automatically. 
Pressing the shutter button complete ly again locks up the mirror again.

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.
About Remote Live View ShootingWith EOS Utility (provide d software) installed in your computer, you 
can connect the camera  to the computer and shoot remotely while 
viewing the computer screen. Fo r details, see the Software 
Instruction Manual  in the CD-ROM.
