While focusing with <AF>, do not touch the focusing ring at the front of
the lens.

If you want to zoom, do it before focusing. Turning the zoom ring after
achieving focus may throw off the focus.

When the CF card becomes full, the CF Full warning “FuLL CF” will
appear in the viewﬁnder and on the LCD panel and shooting will be
disabled. Replace the CF card with one that has room.

If something obstructs the built-in ﬂash from popping up, “Err 05” will
blink on the LCD panel. If this happens, turn the <

4> switch to <2>

and set it back to <

1>.

Using a non-Canon lens with an EOS camera may not result in proper
camera or lens operation.

When focus is achieved, the focus and exposure setting will also be
locked.

If the focus conﬁrmation light <

o> blinks, the picture cannot be taken.

(p.70)

Multiple AF points may ﬂash simultaneously in red.This indicates that
focus has been achieved at all those AF points.

In the Basic Zone modes (except <

3> <5> <7>), the built-in ﬂash

will pop up and ﬁre automatically in low-light or backlit conditions. To
retract the ﬂash, push it back down.

You can disable the beeper from sounding when focus is achieved. (p.90)

Dial to <d>, then follow “Selecting the AF Point” (p.67) to select the AF
point.
