When using a non-Canon lens, setting the corrections to [Disable] is recommended even if [Correction data available] is displayed. Magnifying the periphery of the image may display parts of the image that will not be recorded.
Page 251 Note General notes for lens aberration correction Effects of lens aberration correction vary by lens and shooting conditions. Also, the effect may be difficult to discern depending on the lens used, shooting conditions, etc. If the correction is difficult to discern, magnifying and checking the image after shooting is recommended.

This setting is effective enough in most cases. ] Enable Noise reduction is performed for all images exposed for 1 sec. or longer.
Page 254 High ISO Speed Noise Reduction You can reduce the image noise generated. This function is especially effective when shooting at high ISO speeds. When shooting at low ISO speeds, the noise in the darker parts of the image (shadow areas) can further be reduced. Select [ : High ISO speed NR].
Page 255 Caution Precautions when set to [Multi Shot Noise Reduction] If there is significant misalignment in the image due to camera shake, the noise reduction effect may become smaller. Be careful about camera shake in handheld shots. Using a tripod is recommended. If you shoot a moving subject, the moving subject may leave afterimages.

Page 258 Select [OK]. After the automatic self-cleaning of the sensor is performed, a message will appear. Although there will be a mechanical sound of the shutter during the cleaning, no picture is taken.
Page 259 Shoot a plain white object. Shoot with a plain white object (such as a new sheet of white paper) filling the screen, at a distance of 20–30 cm (0.7–1.0 ft.). Since the image will not be saved, the data can still be obtained even if there is no card in the camera.
Page 260 Dust Delete Data Appending Once acquired, Dust Delete Data is appended to still photos captured after that point. Acquiring Dust Delete Data before shooting is recommended. For details about using Digital Photo Professional (EOS software) to erase dust spots automatically, refer to the Digital Photo Professional Instruction Manual. File size is essentially unaffected by Dust Delete Data appended to images.
