zzFollowing step 1 on =64, choose [$]  
and press the <n> button.  
2 Configure the setting.

zzFollow step 2 n =64 to shoot.  
For movies shot using the self-timer, the delay represents the  
delay before recording begins, but the setting for the number of  
shots has no effect.  
When you specify multiple shots, image brightness and white balance are  
determined by the first shot. More time is required between shots when the  
flash fires or when you have specified to take many shots. Shooting will stop  
automatically when the memory card becomes full.  
When a delay longer than two seconds is specified, two seconds before the  
shot, the lamp blinking and self-timer sound will speed up. (The lamp will  
remain lit in case the flash fires.)

Using Face ID  
If you register a person ahead of time, the camera will detect that person’s  
face, and prioritize focus, brightness, and color for that person when  
shooting. In <A> mode, the camera can detect babies and children  
based on registered birthdays and optimize settings for them when  
shooting.  
This function is also useful when searching for a specific registered person  
among a large number of images (=181).  
Personal Information  
Information such as images of a face (face info) registered with Face ID,  
and personal information (name, birthday) will be saved on the camera.  
Additionally, when registered people are detected, their names will be  
recorded in still images. When using the Face ID function, be careful  
when sharing the camera or images with others, and when posting  
images online where many others can view them.  
When disposing of a camera or transferring it to another person after  
using Face ID, be sure to erase all informaion (registered faces, names,  
and birthdays) from the camera (=79).

as the main subject, and optimize focus, brightness, and color for that  
person when shooting.  
XXWhen you point the camera toward a  
subject, the names of up to 3 registered  
people will be displayed when they are  
detected.  
zzShoot.  
XXDisplayed names will be recorded in still  
images. Even if people are detected, but  
their names are not displayed, the names  
(up to 5 people) will be recorded in the  
image.  
People other than those regid mabe mistakenly detected as  
the registered person if shre similar facial features.  
Registered people may not brrectly detected if the captured image or  
scene differs drasticlly frm the registered face information.  
If a registered face is not detected, or not easily detected, overwrite  
registered information with new face info. Registering face info right before  
shooting will allow for easier detection of registered faces.  
If a person is mistakenly detected as another person and you continue  
shooting, you can edit or erase the name recorded in the image during  
playback (=187).  
Because faces of babies and children change quickly as they grow, you  
should update their face info regularly (=76).  
When information display is set to off (=46), names will not display, but  
will be recorded in the image.  
If you don’t want names to be recorded in still images, choose [Face ID

Tips on Using Included Accessories  
Effective Battery and Charger Use  
Charge the battery on (or immediately before) the  
day of use  
Charged batteries gradually lose their charge, even when  
they are not used.  
You can easily check the charge state of the battery by  
attaching the cover so that is visible on a charged  
battery, and attaching it so that is not visible on an  
uncharged battery.  
Long-term battery storage  
After using up all remaining battery power, remove the battery from the camera. Store  
the battery with the cover attached. Storing a partially charged battery over extended  
periods (about a year) may shorten its life or affect performance.  
Using the battery charger abroad  
The charger can be used in areas with 100 – 240 V AC power (50/60 Hz). For power  
outlets in a different format, use a commercially availale adapter for the plug. Never

Using an Eye-Fi Card  
Before using an Eye-Fi card, always confirm that local use is permitted  
Inserting a prepared Eye-Fi card enables automatic wireless transfer of  
images to a computer or uploading to a photo-sharing website.  
Images are transferred by the Eye-Fi card. Refer to the card’s user manual  
or contact the manufacturer for instructions on preparing and using cards or  
resolving transfer problems.  
When using an Eye-Fi card, keep the following points in mind.  
- Cards may continue to transmit radio waves even when  
[Eye-Fi trans.] is set to [Disable] (=276). Remove the Eye-Fi  
card before entering hospitals, aircraft, or other areas where  
transmission is prohibited.  
- When troubleshooting image transfer issues, check the card and  
computer settings. For details, refer to the card’s user manual.  
- Poor Eye-Fi connections may cause mge transfer to take a long  
time, and transfer may be interrd in ome cases.  
- Eye-Fi cards may become ot, dto their transfer functions.  
- Battery power will be confaster than in normal use.  
- Camera operation may becsluggish. To resolve this, try  
setting [Eye-Fi tran.] to Disable].

Troubleshooting  
If you think there is a problem with the camera, first check the following.  
If the items below do not solve your problem, contact a Canon Customer  
Support Help Desk.  
Power  
Nothing happens when the power button is pressed.  
Confirm that the battery is charged (=17).  
Confirm that the battery is inserted facing the correct way (=18).  
Confirm that the memory card/battery cover is fully closed (=19).  
Dirty battery terminals reduce battery performance. Try cleaning the terminals with a  
cotton swab and reinserting the battery a few times.  
The battery is depleted quickly.  
Battery performance decreases at low temperatures. Try warming the battery a little  
by putting it in your pocket, for example, with the terminal cover on.  
If these measures do not help and the battery is still depleted soon after charging, it  
has reached the end of its life. Purchase a new battery.  
The lens is not retracted.  
Do not open the memory card/battery cover the cmera is on. Close the cover,  
turn the camera on, and then turn it off again (9).  
The battery is swollen.  
Battery swelling is normal and does not any safety concerns. However, if battery  
swelling prevents the battery frm fittg in the camera, contact a Canon Customer  
Support Help Desk.

Troubleshooting  
Shooting Movies  
The elapsed time shown is incorrect, or recording is interrupted.  
Use the camera to format the memory card, or switch to a card that supports high-  
speed recording. Note that even if the elapsed time display is incorrect, the length  
of movies on the memory card corresponds to the actual recording time (=223,  
[
] is displayed and shooting stops automatically.  
The camera’s internal memory buffer filled up as the camera could not record to the  
memory card quickly enough. Try one of the following measures.  
Use the camera to perform low-level formatting of the memory card (=224).  
Lower the image quality (=84).  
Switch to a memory card that supports high-speed recording (=305).  
Zooming is not possible.  
Zooming is not possible when shooting movies in [ ] (=104) and [ ] (=121)  
modes.

Never bring the camera near magnets, motors, or other devices that  
generate strong electromagnetic fields, which may cause malfunction or
