Manually Setting The Film Speed - Canon EOS 1 Instructions Manual

1. Manually Setting the Film Speed

The film speed can be set manually when using non-DX film or when you
wish to set a film speed other than the DX-coded film speed.
• Set the film speed after loading the film.
• The manual film speed setting range is ISO 6~6400. When using DX film, the
automatic film speed setting range is ISO 25~5000.
The manually-set film speed is automatically canceled when new DX-coded film is loaded.

This custom function can be used to pre-
vent the camera from automatically set-
ting the film speed according to the film's
DX code. When this function is set, the
camera does not change the manually set
film speed when changing film, handy
when using many rolls of the same type
of film in succession.
