Shooting Portraits The <2> (Portrait) mode blurs the background to make the human subject stand out. It also makes skin tones and hair look softer. Shooting Tips Select the location where the distance between the subject and the background is the farthest. The further the distance between the subject and background, the more blurred the background will look. The subject will also stand out better against an uncluttered dark background. Use a telephoto lens.
Shooting Group Photos Use the (Group Photo) mode to shoot group photos. You can take a picture in which both the people in the front and people in the back are all in focus. Shooting Tips Use a wide-angle lens. When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end to make it easy to get all the people in the group in focus at once, from the front row to the back.
Shooting Landscapes Use the <3> (Landscape) mode for expansive scenery or to have everything in focus from near to far. For vivid blues and greens, and sharp and crisp images. Shooting Tips With a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end. When using a zoom lens, set the lens to the wide-angle end to make the objects near and far in focus. It also adds breadth to landscapes. Keep the camera steady when shooting night scenes. Using a tripod is recommended.
Shooting Moving Subjects Use the <5> (Sports) mode to shoot a moving subject, such as a running person or a moving vehicle. Shooting Tips Use a telephoto lens. Use of a telephoto lens is recommended to enable shooting from a distance. Track the subject with the Area AF frame. In viewfinder shooting, aim the Area AF frame over the subject and press the shutter button halfway to start focusing. During autofocusing, the beeper will continue beeping softly.
Photographing Children To photograph the children running around, use the (Kids) mode. Skin tones will look healthy. (1) (2) Shooting Tips Track the subject with the Area AF frame. In viewfinder shooting, aim the Area AF frame (1) over the subject and press the shutter button halfway to start focusing. During autofocusing, the beeper will continue beeping softly. If focus cannot be achieved, the focus indicator will blink.
Panning If you want to take a picture with the feel of speed and a blurred motion effect on the subject’s background, use the (Panning) mode. If you use a lens supporting the mode, subject blur is detected, corrected, and reduced. Shooting Tips Turn the camera to follow the moving subject. When shooting, turn the camera smoothly as you track the moving subject.
Panning Set the level of background motion blur. With [Effect], you can set the level of background motion blur. The [Max] setting will set a slower shutter speed to increase the background motion blur around the subject. If the subject blur is noticeable, set [Effect] to [Med] or [Min] to reduce the blur. Shoot continuously. By default, (Continuous shooting) is set. At the decisive moment, press the shutter button completely to take the picture.
Shooting Close-ups When you want to shoot flowers or small things up close, use the <4> (Close-up) mode. To make small things appear much larger, use a macro lens (sold separately). Shooting Tips Use a simple background. A simple background makes small objects such as flowers stand out better. Move in as close as possible to the subject. Check the lens for its minimum focusing distance.
Shooting Food When you want to take pictures of food, use the
(Food) mode. The photo will look bright and appetizing. Also, depending on the light source, the reddish tinge will be suppressed in the pictures taken under tungsten lights, etc. Shooting Tips Change the color tone. You can change [Color tone]. To increase the food’s reddish tinge, set it toward [Warm] (red). Set it toward [Cool] (blue) if it looks too red.
Shooting Candlelight Portraits When you want to photograph a person in candlelight, use the (Candlelight) mode. The atmosphere of candlelight is reflected in the color tones of the picture. Shooting Tips Use the center AF point to focus. Aim the center AF point in the viewfinder on the subject, then shoot. Prevent camera shake if the numeric display (shutter speed) in the viewfinder blinks. Under low light where camera shake tends to occur, the viewfinder’s shutter speed display will blink.
Shooting Night Portraits (With a Tripod) When you want to photograph people at night and obtain a natural-looking night scene in the background, use the <6> (Night Portrait) mode. Note that shooting in this mode requires the built-in flash or an external Speedlite. Using a tripod is recommended. Shooting Tips Use a wide-angle lens and a tripod. When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end to obtain a wide night view. Because camera shake occurs in handheld shooting, using a tripod is also recommended.
Handheld Shooting of Night Scenes The (Handheld Night Scene) mode enables you to shoot night scenes even while handholding the camera. In this shooting mode, four shots are taken consecutively for each picture, and the resulting one image with reduced camera shake is recorded. Shooting Tips Hold the camera steady. Keep your elbows close to your body to hold the camera steady (=56). In this mode, four shots are aligned and merged into a single image.
Shooting Backlit Scenes When shooting a scene having both the bright and dark areas, use the (HDR Backlight Control) mode. When you take one picture in this mode, three consecutive shots are taken at different exposures. This results in one image, with a wide tonal range, that has minimized the clipped shadows caused by backlighting. * HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. Shooting Tips Hold the camera steady. Keep your elbows close to your body to hold the camera steady (=56).
Cautions for the Modes q: Group Photo o The angle of view changes slightly, due to distortion correction. o Depending on the shooting conditions, focus may not be attained for everyone from the front to the back of the image. 3: Landscape o The built-in flash will not fire, even if it is raised when you shoot. o Speedlites will not fire either, if used. 5: Sports o Under low light where camera shake tends to occur, the shutter speed value in the lower left will blink. Hold the camera steady and shoot.
Cautions for the Modes r: Panning (continued) o With a lens supporting the mode, subject blur may not be corrected properly when shooting the following subjects or under the following shooting conditions. • Subjects with very low contrast. • Subjects in low light. • Strongly backlit or reflective subjects. • Subjects with repetitive patterns. • Subjects with less patterns or monotonous patterns. • Subjects with reflections (images reflected in glass, etc.). • Subjects smaller than the Zone AF frame.
Cautions for the Modes 6: Night Portrait o Tell subjects to remain still for a moment after the flash fires. o During Live View shooting, achieving focus may be difficult when the face of the subject looks dark. In this case, set the lens’s focus mode switch to and focus manually. o When you shoot a night scene with Live View shooting, achieving focus with AF may be difficult if point sources of light are found in the AF point. In this case, set the lens’s focus mode switch to and focus manually.
Cautions for the Modes F: Handheld Night Scene (continued) o If you shoot a moving subject, the subject’s movement may leave afterimages or the surrounding area of the subject may become dark. o The image alignment may not function properly with repetitive patterns (lattice, stripes, etc.), flat or single-tone images, or images significantly misaligned due to camera shake. o It takes some time to record images to the card since they are merged after shooting.

It provides controls to use in vertical shooting, such as a shutter button and Main dial. For instructions on attachment and use, refer to the BG-E14 Instruction Manual. Household Power Outlet Accessory You can power the camera with a household power outlet by using the DC Coupler DR-E6 and AC Adapter AC-E6N (each sold separately).
Troubleshooting Guide If a problem occurs with the camera, first refer to this Troubleshooting Guide. If this Troubleshooting Guide does not resolve the problem, contact your dealer or nearest Canon Service Center. Power-Related Problems The battery does not recharge. If the battery’s remaining capacity (=524) is 94% or higher, the battery will not be recharged. Do not use any battery other than genuine Canon Battery Pack LP-E6N/ LP-E6. The charger’s lamp blinks at high speed.
Troubleshooting Guide The access lamp still lights or blinks even when the power switch is set to <2>. If the power is turned off while an image is being recorded to the card, the access lamp will remain on or continue to blink for a few seconds. When the image recording is complete, the power will turn off automatically. [Does this battery/do these batteries display the Canon logo?] is displayed. Do not use any battery other than genuine Canon Battery Pack LP-E6N/ LP-E6.
Troubleshooting Guide Shooting-Related Problems The lens cannot be attached. The camera cannot be used with RF or EF-M lenses (=54). The viewfinder is dark. Install a recharged battery in the camera (=44). No images can be shot or recorded. Make sure the card is properly inserted (=48). Slide the card’s write-protect switch to the Write/Erase setting (=48). If the card is full, replace the card or delete unnecessary images to make space (=48, =350).
Troubleshooting Guide The card cannot be used. If a card error message is displayed, see =50 or =613. An error message is displayed when the card is inserted in another camera. Since SDXC cards are formatted in exFAT, if you format a card with this camera and then insert it into another camera, an error may be displayed and it may not be possible to use the card. I have to press the shutter button twice to take a picture. Set [z: Mirror lockup] to [Disable]. The image is out of focus or blurred.
Troubleshooting Guide The AF point is blinking or two AF points are displayed. Regarding the AF points lighting up or blinking when you press the or button, see =133. The AF points do not light up in red. The AF points light up in red when you shoot under low light or when focus is achieved on a dark subject. In the , , , , or mode, you can set whether to have the AF points light up in red for when focus is achieved (=569). I cannot lock the focus and recompose the shot.
Troubleshooting Guide Even after I change the card, the maximum burst displayed for continuous shooting does not change. The maximum burst displayed does not change when you switch cards, even if you switch to a high-speed card. The maximum burst shown in the table on =615 is based on Canon’s testing card. (The faster the card’s writing speed, the higher the actual maximum burst will be.) For this reason, the maximum burst displayed may differ from the actual maximum burst.
Troubleshooting Guide The external Speedlite does not fire. Make sure the external Speedlite is securely attached to the camera. When using non-Canon flash units in Live View shooting, set [z: Shutter mode] to an option other than [Electronic] (=243). The external Speedlite always fires at full output. If you use a flash unit other than an EL/EX series Speedlite, the flash will always fire at full output (=179).
Troubleshooting Guide Enabling Live View Shooting Set [z: Live View shoot.] to [Enable]. The shutter makes two release sounds during Live View shooting. If you use flash with Live View shooting, the shutter will make two release sounds each time you shoot. During Live View shooting, a white s or red E icon is displayed. It indicates that the camera’s internal temperature is high. Image quality of still photos may be worse when a white [s] icon is displayed.
Troubleshooting Guide Movie recording stops by itself. If the card’s writing speed is slow, movie recording may stop automatically. For cards that can record movies, see =617. To find out the card’s writing speed, refer to the card manufacturer’s website, etc. If you shoot a movie for 29 min. 59 sec., the movie recording will stop automatically. The ISO speed cannot be set for movie recording. In shooting modes other than , the ISO speed is set automatically.
Troubleshooting Guide The image flickers or horizontal stripes appear during movie recording. Flickering, horizontal stripes (noise), or irregular exposures can be caused by fluorescent lighting, LED lighting, or other light sources during movie recording. Also, changes in the exposure (brightness) or color tone may be recorded. In the mode, a slow shutter speed may reduce the problem. The problem may be more noticeable in time-lapse movie recording. The subject looks distorted during movie recording.
Troubleshooting Guide Problems with Wireless Features Cannot pair with a smartphone. Use a smartphone compliant with Bluetooth Specification Version 4.1 or later. Turn on Bluetooth from the smartphone settings screen. Pairing with the camera is not possible from the smartphone’s Bluetooth settings screen. Install the dedicated app Camera Connect (free of charge) on the smartphone (=399).
Troubleshooting Guide Cannot reconnect to a smartphone. Even with a combination of the same camera and smartphone, if you have changed the settings or selected a different setting, reconnection may not be established even after selecting the same SSID. In this case, delete the camera connection settings from the Wi-Fi settings on the smartphone and set up a connection again. A connection may not be established if Camera Connect is running when you reconfigure connection settings.
Troubleshooting Guide Operation Problems I cannot change the setting with <6>, <5>, , <9>, or . Set the switch downward (lock release) (=60). Check the [5: Multi function lock] setting (=545). Touch operation is not possible. Make sure [5: Touch control] is set to [Standard] or [Sensitive] (=521). A camera button or dial does not work as expected. Check these settings: [8: C.Fn II-7: Select AF area selec. mode], [8: C.
Troubleshooting Guide The file name starts with “MVI_”. It is a movie file (=507). The file numbering does not start from 0001. If the card already contains recorded images, the image number may not start from 0001 (=507). The shooting date and time displayed are incorrect. Make sure the correct date and time are set (=516). Check the time zone and daylight saving time (=516, =517). The date and time are not in the image. The shooting date and time do not appear in the image.
Troubleshooting Guide Playback Problems Part of the image blinks in black. [3: Highlight alert] is set to [Enable] (=391). A red box is displayed on the image. [3: AF point disp.] is set to [Enable] (=392). During image playback, the AF points are not displayed. The AF points are not displayed when the following types of images are played back: Images taken in the <8: FG> modes. Images taken in the HDR mode. Images taken in the modes.
Troubleshooting Guide Operation sound and mechanical sound can be heard during movie playback. If you operate the camera’s dials or lens during movie recording, the operation sound will also be recorded. Using the Directional Stereo Microphone DM-E1 (sold separately) is recommended (=296). The movie appears to freeze momentarily. If there is a drastic change in the exposure level during autoexposure movie recording, the recording will stop momentarily until the brightness stabilizes.
Troubleshooting Guide My card reader does not recognize the card. Depending on the card reader used and the computer’s operating system, SDXC cards may not be correctly recognized. In this case, either connect the camera to a computer with an interface cable (sold separately) and use EOS Utility (EOS software, =590) or connect the camera to a computer via Wi-Fi (=426) to import the images on the camera. The image cannot be resized. With this camera, you cannot resize JPEG b and RAW images (=379).
Sensor Cleaning Problems The shutter makes a sound during sensor cleaning. Under [5: Sensor cleaning], when you select [Clean nowf], the shutter will make a mechanical sound during the cleaning, but no picture will be recorded to the card (=528). Automatic sensor cleaning does not work. If you repeatedly turn the power switch <1> and <2> within a short time period, the icon may not be displayed (=52). Computer Connection Problems I cannot import images to a computer.
Error Codes (1) (2) If there is a problem with the camera, an error message will appear. Follow the on-screen instructions. If the problem persists, write down the error code (Errxx) and contact a Customer Support Help Desk.

A diagonal cross pattern makes it easier to focus on the subjects that may be difficult to focus.
Lenses and Usable AF Points The number of available AF points and the focusing patterns used vary by lens group (A–H). Fewer AF points are available for lenses in groups E–H. AF points in [ ] blink when the or button is pressed (while [ / ] points remain lit.) The number of AF points varies depending on your specified still image aspect ratio. Group A Autofocusing with 45 points is possible. All the AF area selection modes are selectable. : Dual cross-type AF point.
Lenses and Usable AF Points Group C Autofocusing with 45 points is possible. All the AF area selection modes are selectable. : Cross-type AF point.

EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.
Thank you for purchasing a Canon product. The Canon EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens is a high-performance highmagnification zoom lens equipped with an Image Stabilizer, and has been developed for digital SLRs compatible with EF-S lenses*.
Safety Precautions Handling Cautions ●● If the lens is taken from a cold environment into a warm one, condensation may develop on the lens surface and internal parts. To prevent condensation in this case, first put the lens into an airtight plastic bag before taking it from a cold to warm environment. Then take out the lens after it has warmed gradually. Do the same when taking the lens from a warm environment into a cold one. ●● Do not leave the lens in excessive heat such as in a car in direct sunlight.
Safety Precautions This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Do not make any changes or modifications to the equipment unless otherwise specified in the instructions. If such changes or modifications should be made, you could be required to stop operation of the equipment.
Shooting Precautions The EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM utilizes a stepping motor that drives the focus lens. The motor also controls the focus lens during zooming. 1. When the camera is OFF The motor does not operate while the camera is OFF or when the camera is OFF due to the use of the auto power off function. Therefore, users must be aware of the following points. ●● Manual focus adjustments are not possible. ●● During zooming, delayed focus will occur. 2.

1 Mounting and Detaching the Lens 2 Setting the Focus Mode See your camera’s instructions for details on mounting and detaching the lens. Y P O ●● After detaching the lens, place the lens with the rear end up to prevent the lens surface and contacts from getting scratched. ●● If the contacts get soiled, scratched, or have fingerprints on them, corrosion or faulty connections can result. The camera and lens may not operate properly.
3 Hood (sold separately) Zooming Y P O The EW-73B hood cuts out unwanted light and protects the front of the lens from rain, snow, and dust. To attach the hood, align the hood’s attachment position mark with the red dot on the front of the lens, then turn the hood as shown by the arrow until the lens’ red dot is aligned with the hood’s stop position mark. The hood can be reverse-mounted on the lens for storage. C 4 To zoom, turn the lens’ zoom ring. ●● Be sure to finish zooming before focusing.
5 Fixing the Zoom Ring The zoom ring can be fixed to keep the lens at the shortest point. This function is convenient for carrying a camera on a strap because it prevents the lens from extending. 1 Y P O Rotate the zoom ring to the widest position (18 mm). C 2 Slide the zoom ring lock lever in the direction indicated by the arrow. ●● To release the zoom ring, slide the zoom ring lock lever in the direction opposite to the arrow. The zoom ring can only be locked at maximum wide angle.
6 Image Stabilizer You can use the image stabilizer in AF or MF mode. This function provides optimal image stabilization depending on shooting conditions (such as shooting still subjects and following shots). 1 C Set the STABILIZER switch to ON. ●● The Image Stabilizer cannot compensate for a blurred shot caused by a subject that moved. ●● The Image Stabilizer may not be fully effective if you shoot from a violently shaking vehicle or other transportation.
Image Stabilizer The image stabilizer for this lens is effective for hand-held shots in the following conditions. Y P O ON ON OFF ●●In semi-darkened areas such as indoors or outdoors at night. ●●In locations where flash photography is prohibited, such as art museums and theater stages. ●●In situations where your footing is uncertain. ●●In situations where fast shutter settings cannot be used. C OFF ●●When panning subjects in motion. ■ Dynamic IS Function The EF-S18-135mm f/3.5-5.
7 Filters (sold separately) You can attach filters to the filter mounting thread on the front of the lens. ●● Only one filter may be attached. ●● If you need a polarizing filter, use the Canon Circular Polarizing Filter PL-C B (67 mm). ●● To adjust the polarizing filter, first remove the lens hood. 8 You can attach extension tube EF12 II or EF25 II for magnified shots. The shooting distance and magnification are shown below.
