Cautions
[Flash]
11. With EOS-dedicated Speedlites other than the EX-
series, autoflash is not possible.
12. When using the Landscape or Sports mode, do not
use an EOS-dedicated, external Speedlite.
13. When using the built-in flash, detach any lens hood
from the lens.
14. Do not connect a high-voltage flash unit to the hot
shoe.
[Custom Functions]
15. With C.Fn-7-1 (mirror lockup) set, do not point the
camera toward the sun or any bright light source.
[Camera Direct]
16. When printing via BJ Direct with borders enabled
and date imprinted, the date is imprinted on the
border.
17. When printing via CP Direct with the date imprinted,
t h e i m p r i n t e d d a t e l o o k s l i g h t i f t h e i m a g e
background is light or if it falls on the border.
[Interface]
18. Do not excessively bend or disassemble the
interfaceable.
19. Before displaying captured images on a TV monitor,
check whether it uses the NTSC or PAL system.
20. When the EOS D REBEL XTI / EOS 400D D is connected
to a TV set and the pictures are displayed, part of
the image is hidden.
[LCD Monitor]
21. When the LCD monitor is on, there might be black,
red, or green dots that are always visible.
22. Do not press on the LCD monitor with your fingers
or subject it to strong vibration or physical shock.
[Camera & Misc.]
23. There is a small noise when the camera is shaken.
Remarks
This camera it does not have a flash exposure sensor
compatible with A-TTL/TTL.
(The flash will not fire in the A-TTL/TTL autoflash mode.
Use the manual flash mode instead. EOS-dedicated
Speedlites not having a manual flash mode and wired,
multi-Speedlite accessories cannot be used.)
The flash would fire at all times and the photo might not
come out as you desire.
This is to prevent flash coverage cut-off.
It may not fire.
Doing so can damage the shutter curtains, cause stray
light to enter, or damage the imaging sensor.
The problem lies with the BJ printer. Does not occur
with CP printers.
(BJ Direct is set to imprint the date within the image
area of an image having a 4:3 ratio produced by a
PowerShot camera. So printing an EOS digital camera's
3:2 ratio image having a shorter vertical dimension will
make the date fall on the border. The same problem
occurs with DPOF.)
The problem lies with the CP printer.
Malfunction may result due to cable disconnection or
short-circuiting.
If the TV monitor uses a different system, the images
will not be displayed properly.
(The default setting is NTSC for the Japan and N.
America, and PAL for other countries.)
Caused by the TV screen display design.
These are dead pixels which number 0.02% or less of
the LCD monitor's total number of effective pixels. The
recorded images are not affected.
Doing so may result uneven color or break of the LCD
monitor.
This is the sound of the ball in the camera
orientation detection unit.
