General Still Photo Shooting Precautions Both Viewfinder and Live View Shooting In Live View Shooting Information Display in Live View Shooting Both Viewfinder and Live View Shooting Caution Image quality When you shoot at high ISO speeds, noise (such as dots of light and banding) may become noticeable. Shooting in high temperatures may cause noise and irregular colors in the image.
In Live View Shooting Caution Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun or an intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the camera's internal components. Image quality Frequent shooting over an extended period may cause the camera's internal temperature to rise and affect image quality. When you are not shooting, always turn off the camera. If you shoot a long exposure while the camera's internal temperature is high, image quality may decline.
Images and display Under low- or bright-light conditions, the displayed image may not reflect the brightness of the captured image. Under low light, noise may be noticeable in image display even at low ISO speeds, but there will be less noise in your shots, because image quality varies between display and captured images. The screen or exposure value may flicker if the light source (lighting) changes. In this case, stop shooting temporarily and resume under the light source you will use.
Information Display in Live View Shooting For details on the icons displayed for still photo shooting, see Live View Shooting Screen. Note When [ ] is displayed in white, it indicates that the image is displayed at the brightness level closely matching that of the actual image to be captured.

Troubleshooting Guide Power-related problems Shooting-related problems Problems with wireless features Operation problems Display problems Playback problems Sensor cleaning problems Computer connection problems 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 charge. If the battery's remaining capacity ( ) is 94% or higher, the battery will not be charged. Do not use any battery packs other than a genuine Canon Battery Pack LP-E17. The charger's lamp blinks at high speed. If (1) the battery charger or battery has a problem or (2) communication with the battery failed (with a non-Canon battery pack), the protection circuit will stop charging, and the charge lamp will blink in orange at a constant high speed.
The battery becomes exhausted quickly. Use a fully charged battery ( ). The battery performance may have degraded. See [ : Battery info.] to check the battery's recharge performance level ( ). If the battery performance is poor, replace the battery with a new one. The number of available shots will decrease with any of the following operations: • Pressing the shutter button halfway for a prolonged period. • Activating the AF frequently without taking a picture. • Using the lens's Image Stabilizer.
Shooting-related problems The lens cannot be attached. The camera cannot be used with RF or EF-M lenses ( ). The viewfinder is dark. Install a charged battery in the camera ( ). No images can be shot or recorded. Make sure the card is properly inserted ( ). Slide the card's write-protect switch to the Write/Erase setting ( ). If the card is full, replace the card or delete unnecessary images to make space ( , ).
The image is out of focus or blurred. Set the lens's focus mode switch to < > ( ). Press the shutter button ( ) gently to prevent camera shake ( ). With a lens equipped with an Image Stabilizer, set the Image Stabilizer switch to < >. In low light, the shutter speed may become slow. Use a faster shutter speed ( ), set a higher ISO speed ( ), use flash ( , ), or use a tripod. See Minimizing blurred photos. There are fewer AF points or the Area AF frame shape is different.
The maximum burst during continuous shooting is lower. If you shoot a subject that has fine detail such as a field of grass, the file size will be larger, and the actual maximum burst may be lower than the number listed in Still photo file size / Number of possible shots / Maximum burst for continuous shooting. Even after I change the card, the maximum burst displayed for continuous shooting does not change.
The external Speedlite does not fire. Make sure the external Speedlite is securely attached to the camera. The 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 ( ). The flash always fires at full output when [Flash metering mode] in external flash Custom Function settings is set to [TTL flash metering] (autoflash) ( ). Flash exposure compensation cannot be set for the external Speedlite.
During Live View shooting, a white or red icon is displayed. It indicates that the camera's internal temperature is high. Image quality of still photos may be worse when a white [ ] icon is displayed. If the red [ ] icon is displayed, it indicates that the Live View shooting will soon stop automatically ( ). Expanded ISO speeds cannot be selected for still photo shooting. Check the [ISO speed] setting under [ : ISO speed settings].
Expanded ISO speeds cannot be selected for movie recording. Check the [ISO speed] setting under [ : ISO speed settings]. Expanded ISO speeds are not available when [ : Highlight tone priority] is set to [Enable]. The exposure changes during movie recording. If you change the shutter speed or aperture value during movie recording, the changes in the exposure may be recorded. Recording a few test movies is recommended if you intend to perform zooming during movie recording.
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 ( ).
