3Lens Peripheral Illumination / Chromatic Aberration Correction

Lens Correction Data

The camera already contains lens peripheral illumination correction data and chromatic aberration correction data for approx. 25 lenses. If you select [Enable], the peripheral illumination correction and chromatic aberration correction will be applied automatically for any lens whose correction data is registered in the camera.

With EOS Utility (provided software), you can check which lenses have their correction data registered in the camera. You can also register the correction data for unregistered lenses. For details, refer to the EOS Utility Instruction Manual (p.368) on the Software Instruction Manual CD-ROM.

Notes for Peripheral Illumination Correction and Chromatic Aberration Correction

Peripheral illumination correction and chromatic aberration correction cannot be applied to JPEG images already taken.

When using a non-Canon lens, setting the corrections to [Disable] is recommended, even if [Correction data available] is displayed.

If you use the magnified view during Live View shooting, the peripheral illumination correction and chromatic aberration correction will not be reflected in the image shown on the screen.

If the effect of the correction is not visible, magnify the image after shooting and check it again.

Corrections can be applied even when an Extender or Life-size Converter is attached.

If the correction data for the attached lens is not registered to the camera, the result will be the same as when the correction is set to [Disable].

If the lens does not have distance information, the correction amount will be lower.
