(1 )Camera setting display
Instead of having a separate LCD display panel, the
EOS D REBEL XTI
I
EOS 400D D displays the camera
settings on the LCD monitor in a similar layout as on an
LCD panel. The settings are displayed when the camera
is turned on. As shown in Fig. 0 14, the camera settings
look larger on the 2.5-in. LCD monitor, making it
easier to read than on the EOS KISS DIGITAL N. A lot of
information is also displayed. Settings like the ISO speed,
recording quality, white balance, and other information
you need to always check are displayed. In the Basic
Zone modes, the settings which the user cannot change
is grayed out. (Fig. 0 15)
Cameras having a separate LCD panel always display
the essential camera settings while the camera is turned
on. So with the EOS D REBEL XTI
I
EOS 400D D, the
camera settings are displayed at all times whenever
possible.
If you press the shutter button halfway while viewing
a menu or image on the LCD monitor, the camera
settings will reappear. And as with other EOS DIGITAL
cameras, you can start shooting anytime from any
display mode.
If auto power off is disabled and the camera is left on,

NormaUy, the camera settings are displayed whenever the camera is turned on. To save battery power, you can
have the LCD monitor remain OFF even after you turn on the camera's power switch. To do this, set C.Fn-11 [LCD
display when power ON] to [Retain power OFF status]. This setting enables the camera to startup with the same
LCD monitor status (ON/ OFF) as when the power was turned off.
eLCD monitor bright ness
LCD monitor is now adjustable in 7 levels, one level
each expanded compared to previous models in both
bright and dark sides. At its brightest setting, it can
display the image about 40% brighter than at the
brightest setting of EOS-lD Mark II, 5D and 30D.
It
makes it easier to review the images even in brightly
lit outdoors. As for the darkest setting, the display is
not too bright for your eyes to see even in the dark.
