Canon EOS manual Raw Raw+L/F

to the output amp is cut off and the standard current for the circuit drive is also sus- pended, as in the case of the Digital Rebel XT.

The maximum burst in Large/Fine mode is approx. 27 shots for JPEG and 10 shots for RAW, twice as many as with the Digital Rebel XT. Also, with white balance bracketing enabled, up to 6 shots can be taken continuously, whereas only 2 shots were possible with the XT.

Recording Quality	L/F	L/N	M/F	M/N	S/F	S/N	RAW	RAW+L/F
Max. Burst [Approx.]	27	58	47	112	98	326	10	8

•The figures above are based on Canon's testing standards with a 512MB CF card. (The figures can also vary depending on the CF card.)

•As with the K189, image processing occurs even during continuous shooting. This increases the maximum burst.

•During white balance bracketing, the maximum burst during continuous shooting will be lower.

The Battery Life table indicates the approximate number of shots that can be obtained under varying temperatures and shooting conditions. Using any of the fol- lowing techniques can conserve power and increase the number of possible shots:

	Shooting Conditions
Temperature
	AE 100%	AE 50% FA 50%
At 23°C / 73°F	500	360
At 0°C / 32°F	370	280

• Based on one fully-charged NB-2LH battery and CIPA testing standards.

1.With the Digital Rebel XT, the shortest power-off time was 1 minute. The default set- ting for auto power off is now 30 seconds.

2.Because the LCD screen can now be turned off/on with the DISP. button, battery power can be saved even if auto power-off has been disabled or set to a long time period. You can choose to display the camera settings only when needed. To make it easier to press the DISP. button, it is positioned at the top of the column of digital- operation buttons on the camera back.

3.With the C.Fn-11-1 set to [Retain power OFF status] , the camera settings will not be displayed. In the Full Auto mode, because one need not worry about the shutter speed and aperture settings, using both C.Fn-11-1 and DISP. to display the camera settings only when necessary will further save battery power.

Folders As high-capacity media (2 GB and up) have become more common because of the decline in their cost, Canon has chosen to take advantage by changing folder-related specifications to make them identical to those of Canon’s high end models. The changes improve the facility with which one can search for images when large numbers of them are involved. In previous models, one folder could hold up to 100 images; now, 9,999 images can be stored in a single folder. A Force-Reset option has also been added which causes the image number to reset as 0001, and a new folder to be creat- ed. Scenes shot separately can now be kept in separate folders, an obvious conven- ience.
