Lens Aberration Correction Peripheral Illumination Correction Distortion Correction Digital Lens Optimizer Chromatic Aberration Correction Diffraction Correction Vignetting, image distortion, and other issues may be caused by lens optical characteristics. The camera can compensate for these phenomena by using [Lens aberration correction]. 1. Select [ 2. Select an item. : Lens aberration correction].
3. Select [Enable]. Confirm that the name of the attached lens and (except for diffraction correction) [Correction data available] are displayed. If [Correction data not available] or [ Optimizer. ] is displayed, see Digital Lens Peripheral Illumination Correction Vignetting (dark image corners) can be corrected. Caution Depending on shooting conditions, noise may appear on the image periphery. The higher the ISO speed, the lower the amount of correction will be.
Distortion Correction Distortion (image warping) can be corrected. Caution To correct distortion, the camera captures a narrower image area than the area seen in viewfinder shooting, which crops the image a little and slightly lowers the apparent resolution. For movie recording, [Distortion correction] will not appear. (Correction is not possible.) In Live View shooting, applying distortion correction may change the angle of view slightly.
Digital Lens Optimizer Various aberrations from lens optical characteristics can be corrected, along with diffraction and low-pass filter-induced loss of resolution. If [Correction data not available] or [ ] is displayed by [Digital Lens Optimizer], you can use EOS Utility to add the lens correction data to the camera. For details, refer to the EOS Utility Instruction Manual. Caution Depending on shooting conditions, noise may be intensified together with the effects of correction.
Chromatic Aberration Correction Chromatic aberration (color fringing around subjects) can be corrected. Note [Chromatic aberr corr] is not displayed when [Digital Lens Optimizer] is set to [Enable(Std)].
Diffraction Correction Diffraction (loss of sharpness caused by the aperture) can be corrected. Caution Depending on shooting conditions, noise may be intensified together with the effects of correction. The higher the ISO speed, the lower the amount of correction will be. Note “Diffraction correction” corrects degraded resolution not only from diffraction but also from the low-pass filter and other factors. Thus, correction is also effective for exposures with the aperture wide open.

(1) Still images (5472×3648) (JPEG L) (2) (1920×1080) (3) RAW movies (5472×2886)/ (4) (3840×2160) (5) (4096×2160) (4096×2160) Caution Recording with Movie digital IS ( the screen. ) further crops the image around the center of Frame rate (fps: frames per second) [ ] 119.9fps/[ ] 59.94fps/[ ] 29.
Compression method [ ] ALL-I (For editing/I-only) Compresses each frame, one at a time, for recording. Although file sizes are larger than with IPB (Standard), movies are more suitable for editing. [ ] IPB (Standard) Compresses multiple frames at a time efficiently for recording. File sizes are smaller than with ALL-I (For editing), which enables movie recording over longer periods (with a card of the same capacity).
Note To display RAW movies on a computer, using Digital Photo Professional (EOS software, hereafter DPP) is recommended. Older versions of DPP Ver.4.x do not support display, processing, editing, or other operations with RAW movies recorded by this camera. If a previous version of DPP Ver.4.x is installed on your computer, obtain and install the latest version of DPP from the Canon website to update it ( ). (The previous version will be overwritten.) Similarly, DPP Ver.3.
Cards That Can Record Movies For details on cards that can record at each level of movie recording quality, check the Canon website. Test cards by recording a few movies to make sure they can record correctly at your specified size ( ). Caution Before recording 4K movies, format cards by selecting [Low level format] in [ : Format card] ( ). If you use a slow-writing card when recording movies, the movie may not be recorded properly.
High Frame Rate You can record Full HD movies at a high frame rate of 119.9 fps or 100.0 fps. This is ideal for recording movies that will be played back in slow motion. The maximum recording time per movie is 7 min. 29 sec. Movies are recorded in or quality. Sound is not recorded in High Frame Rate movies. Time code display during movie recording advances 4 sec. per second. Because High Frame Rate movies are recorded as 29.97 fps/25.00 fps movie files, they are played in slow motion at 1/4 speed.
Movie Files Exceeding 4 GB Even if you record a movie exceeding 4 GB, you can keep recording without interruption. Caution When importing movie files exceeding 4 GB to a computer, use either EOS Utility or a card reader ( ). It may not be possible to save movie files exceeding 4 GB if you attempt this using standard features of the computer's operating system.
