Cautions
and
Supplementary Remarks
1.
In
the
Full
Auto
and
Programmed
Image
Control
modes,
the
settings
shown
on
the
AF
mode
dial,
metering
mode
dial,
and
film
transport
mode
dial
may
differ from
the
actual
modes
set
by
the
camera.
In the Full Auto
and
Programmed Image Control modes, the
AF
mode, metering mode,
and
film transport mode are
set
automatically. Although the mode dials can still
be
rotated to
any
setting, it will be overridden.
2.
When
the
lens'
focus
mode
switch
is
set
to
M,
manual
focus
will
be
set,
but
the
AF
mode
dial
will
always
indicate
an
AF
mode.
This
may
look
contradictory.
As
per
the design.
3.
After
the
number
of
multiple
exposures
is
preset
and
the
first
exposure
is
taken,
cancelling
the
multiple
exposure
operation
before
the
preset
number
is
taken
will
trigger
the
mirror
to
flip
up
and
down
once.
The
film
is
not
exposed
during
this
reflex
action.
As
per
the design.
4.
When
the
built-in
flash
is
used,
any
lens
hood
must
be
detached.
An attached lens hood will obstruct part
of
the flash coverage.
Use
an
external flash unit.
5.
The
built-in
flash's
maximum
coverage
corresponds
to
28mm
lenses.
Therefore,
if
the
lens
is
wider
than
28mm,
there
will
be
light fall-off
at
the
edges.
To
obtain wider flash coverage, use Speedlite 380
EX,
540EZ, 430EZ,
or
420EZ.
6. While
the
built-in
flash
is
being
used
or
recharged,
the
electronic
manual
focusing
ring
on
USM
lenses
cannot
be
used.
The camera design does
not
allow
power
to be supplied to the built-in flash
and
lens
at
the
same time.
7.
When
a
Programmed
Image
Control
mode
is
used
with
an
external
flash
unit,
the
desired
effect
cannot
be
obtained.
Therefore,
using
an
external
flash
unit
is
not
rec-
ommended.
When
on,
an external flash unit will always fire
and
the flash exposure will be controlled
by
the
A-TTL
or
TTL program instead
of
the Programmed Image Control mode.
8.
With
the
focusing
point
camera-selected
and
the
AI
Servo AF
and
continuous
shoot-
ing
modes
set,
the
shooting
speed
may
become
irregular
when
the
subject
moves
to
another
focusing
point.
During the instant when the subject moves from one focusing point to another, focusing will be
1-34
