White Balance - Canon GL1 Brochure

Total Image Control for Maximum
Top Grip With
Recording Controls
In addition to the side hand
grip, the GL1 features a
carrying handle complete with
a duplicate set of recording
and zoom controls. It
accommodates your individual
shooting style and makes mid
to low angle shooting
comfortable and easy.
Programmed AE
Seven advanced recording
controls, easily accessed on
the Program dial, ensure great
results in various
shooting conditions
or provide precise
image control.
Full Auto Green Zone
Identified by the green
rectangle on the program
selector, this mode gives the
GL1 control of all camera
functions and simplifies use by
restricting access to manual
controls.
Auto mode
Auto handles all camera
settings automatically while
also letting users choose the
function or functions they
would like to control
manually such as focus,
exposure and white
balance.

Manual Mode
This mode allows you to make
all the decisions. Users can
control the lens aperture and
shutter speed settings
together - 27 shutter speeds
are available from 1/60 sec. to
1/15,000 sec. for fine exposure
control or capturing fast action
- 23 aperture values permit
half-stop adjustments from
f/1.6 to closed for precise
brightness and depth of field
control.
Spotlight
Designed to be used when
subjects are illuminated by
intense light sources, such as
under spotlights on a dark
stage. This mode is designed
to prevent the subject from
being grossly over-exposed,
against a dark background.

Sand & Snow
Sand & Snow
This program is designed to
prevent a dark, under-
exposed subject when
shooting in places with bright
backgrounds, such as a sunny
beach or ski resort.
Shutter Priority/
Aperture Priority
The Tv (Time value) and Av
(Aperture Value) image
controls simplify capturing fast
action or controlling depth of
field. In Tv users select one of
9 shutter speeds from 1/60 th to
th
1/15,000 sec.
The GL1 automatically sets the
most appropriate aperture for
proper exposure. In Av users
select one of 12 apertures
from f/1.6 to f/11 and the GL1
sets the matching shutter
speed.

Flash Photography
Attach a Canon E-TTL flash
(220EX, 380EX or 550EX) to
illuminate your subject when
shooting still images in the
Photo Mode. It's just like flash
photography with a Canon
35mm SLR camera. The
intelligent flash works with the
GL1 to ensure the proper
exposure and overcome
backlight situations and heavy
shadows.
