The figures above are based on a fully-charged Battery Pack LP-E6 and CIPA (Camera & Imaging Products Association) testing standards.

Continuous Live View shooting is possible for about 1 hr. 30 min. at 23°C/73°F (with a fully-charged Battery Pack LP-E6).

About the <E> icon and camera’s internal temperature increase

When you shoot continuously with the Live View function for a long period or in high temperatures, the camera’s internal temperature may increase and the <E> warning icon will appear on the screen. Note that if you shoot with the Live View function for a long period in high temperatures, the <E> warning icon will appear earlier. Turn off the camera when not shooting images.

If you shoot with the Live View function while the <E> warning icon is displayed, the image quality of still photos may be degraded. You should stop Live View shooting and allow the camera to rest until the camera’s internal temperature decreases.

If Live View shooting continues while the <E> warning icon is displayed, the camera’s internal temperature will further increase and Live View shooting may stop automatically. Live View shooting will be disabled until the camera’s internal temperature decreases. Turn off the camera and allow the camera to rest for a while.

You can also focus by pressing the <p> button.

When flash is used, there will be two shutter sounds, but only one shot will be taken.

Even while the Live View image is displayed, you can playback images by pressing <x>.

If the camera is not operated for a prolonged period, the power will turn off automatically as set with [5Auto power off] (p.46). If [5Auto power off] is set to [Off], the Live View shooting will stop automatically after 30 min. (camera power remains on).

With the AV cable (provided) or HDMI cable (sold separately), you can display the Live View image on a TV (p.184-185).
