P.Fn-04Sets the maximum and minimum shutter speeds to be used

OSelect the maximum and minimum shutter speeds from the list box.

For example, if you set 1/2000 sec. as the fastest shutter speed and 1/60 sec. as the slowest, the shutter speed range will be 1/2000 to 1/60 sec.

OThis makes shutter speed selection faster and prevents a slow-speed sync. in aperture- priority AE mode with the flash.

O If you set the maximum and/or minimum shutter speed to one that is not a full-stop increment (such as 1/750 sec.), the controllable and settable shutter speed range might not be as exact as you set it (A slight deviation may occur.). This applies if you also set Custom Function C.Fn-6-1 and C.Fn-6-2 and set the maximum and/or minimum shutter speed to one that is not a full-stop increment (such as 1/3200 sec.).

OTo ensure that a proper flash sync speed is set in the Program AE mode, a shutter speed range of 1/200 sec. to 1/80 sec. cannot be set with the EOS-1D Mark II N, EOS-1Ds Mark II, EOS-1D Mark II and EOS-1Ds, and the range of 1/400 sec. to 1/80 sec. cannot be set with the EOS-1D.

OIf safety shift has been enabled (with C.Fn-16), it will override P.Fn-04’s shutter speed range.

P.Fn-05Sets the maximum and minimum apertures to be used

OSelect the maximum and minimum apertures from the list box.

For example, if you set 1.4 for the largest aperture (minimum f/number) and 8.0 for the smallest aperture (maximum f/number), the usable aperture range will be f/1.4 to f/8.0.

OYou can better control the apertures used by setting the range of usable apertures.

O Specify a minimum aperture value that is smaller than the maximum aperture setting. If you select a minimum aperture value that is larger than the maximum aperture, a warning message appears and the setting reverts to the default value.

OIf you set the maximum and/or minimum aperture to one that is not a full-stop increment (such as f/4.5), the controllable and settable aperture range might not be as exact as you set it (A slight deviation may occur.). This applies if you also set Custom Function C.Fn-6-1 or C.Fn-6-2 and set the maximum and/or minimum aperture to one that is not a full-stop increment (such as f/6.3).

OIf the largest aperture of the attached lens is smaller than the largest aperture you set with P.Fn-05, the largest aperture will be set to the lens’ largest aperture. And if the largest aperture of the attached lens is smaller than the smallest aperture you set with P.Fn-05, the aperture will be set and fixed to the lens’ largest aperture.

OIf safety shift has been enabled (with C.Fn-16), it will override P.Fn-05’s aperture range.

P.Fn-06Registers and switches the shooting mode and metering mode

OOnly while you press the <> button, you can switch to the preset shooting mode, exposure setting (such as the aperture for aperture-priority AE), metering mode, and

exposure compensation amount.

OSelect settings that are appropriate for each shooting mode.

OThe modes and settings are preset with the camera.

OConvenient when you want to instantly select the preset modes and settings to suit a particular shooting situation such as backlit or front-lit conditions.

P.Fn-06Registering the Modes and Settings with the Camera

1Set the shooting mode and shooting mode settings (for example, aperture setting for aperture-priority AE mode). Then set the metering mode and exposure compensation amount.

2 Register the modes and settings.

O First press the < > button, then press the <> button.

¿< >appears in the LCD panel,

indicating that the modes and settings have registered.

O The registered modes and settings can be modified any number of times.

O To register the modes and settings, first press the < > button before the <> button. If you press the <> button first, the camera will only select the registered modes and settings instead.

OBulb cannot be preset.

OYou cannot select the registered modes and settings during continuous shooting.

O If P.Fn-03 has been set to specify the metering mode for manual exposure, and P.Fn-06 is used to register the manual exposure mode and a metering mode different from the one specified with P.Fn-03, you can select the metering mode specified with P.Fn-03 by pressing the <> button.

OIf P.Fn-04 and/or P.Fn-05 has been set, set the shutter speed and aperture within the range specified with P.Fn-04 and/or P.Fn-05.

OIf the shooting and metering modes you want to set are excluded by the restrictions in P.Fn-01 and P.Fn-02, those Personal Functions must be disabled. For information on clearing and resetting Personal Functions, refer to “Clearing and Resetting Personal Functions” in the camera’s Instruction Manual supplied with the camera.

OEven if the shooting and metering modes selected by P.Fn-06 are excluded by the restrictions in P.Fn-01 and P.Fn-02, they are still valid for P.Fn-06.

O If C.Fn-4-1 or C.Fn-4-3 has been set, AF and AE will also take effect when you press the <> button.

OWhen C.Fn-18 is set, P.Fn-06 is disabled.
