F Using The Remote Switch - Canon EOS 1200D Instruction Manual

F Using the Remote Switch

Remote Switch RS-60E3 (sold separately) comes with an approx. 60 cm/
2.0 ft cord. When connected to the camera's remote control terminal, it
can be pressed halfway and completely, just like the shutter button.
Remote Controller RC-6, RC-1, and RC-5 (all sold separately) cannot be
used with this camera.
Using the Eyepiece Cover
When you use the self-timer, bulb, or Remote Switch and do not look
through the viewfinder, stray light entering the viewfinder can cause the
image to look dark. To prevent this, use the eyepiece cover (p.29)
attached to the camera strap.
During Live View shooting and movie shooting, attaching the
eyepiece cover is unnecessary.
Detach the eyecup.
1
Push the bottom of the eyecup to
detach.
Attach the eyepiece cover.
2
Slide the eyepiece cover down into
the eyepiece groove to attach it.
After taking the picture, detach the
eyepiece cover and attach the
eyecup by sliding it down into the
eyepiece groove.
