Canon Digital Camera Basic Setup – Micro-Photography

Using the Light Source of X-Loupe

If using light sources other than X-Loupe, please refer to Canon User Guide.

The image of a partial subject in micro-photography may have difficulty to differentiate due to some special properties of that subject. Using the Vivid Mode could improve the effect of image to get better inspection result. If the Vivid Mode can not reach the expected result, try other Modes.

In micro-photography, the camera has to approach closely to the subject, and the focal area is magnified many times. Using Evalu ative Metering Mode could help the system to grab more informat ion and get more precise Shutter Speeds.

Please set the Compression to Fine. (Altering this setting would change the image file size.)

Set the Recording Pixels value according to the output media. For instance, choosing higher Recording Pixels value if the picture is for printing. (Altering this setting would change the image file size.)
