7. OPERATION CAUTIONS
No. Cautions
1. Be sure to set CF-0 to either 0 or 1 to suit
the focusing screen.
2. For CF-0, the CF button must be held down
at least 2 sec. to set 0 or 1.
3. Even if the CLEAR button is pressed imme-
diately after the CF button is pressed, CF-0
will not be cleared.
4. If CF-6-1 is set for whole-stop increments
with Tv and Av settings, the aperture reading
on the camera may differ from the
Speedlite's.
5. When CF-12-1 is set and mirror lockup is in
progress, do not point the camera toward the
sun or any other bright light.
6. When CF-12-1 is set and mirror lockup and
the self-timer are used together, the mirror
will lockup when the shutter button is
pressed completely the first time. After the
self-count, the film is exposed and the mirror
returns.
7. With CF-12-1's mirror lockup, self-timer, and
bulb exposure set together, the mirror will
lockup when the shutter button is pressed
completely the first time. After the self
count, the exposure starts (front curtain
starts). When the shutter button is released,
the exposure ends (rear curtain starts) and
the mirror returns. If the shutter button is
released from a complete pressing during
the self count, the shot will be canceled. The
shutter curtains close and the mirror returns.
The film does not advance.
8. When PB-E2 or PDB-E1 is attached to the
camera, align the positioning guide pin and
screw. Keep the camera bottom, PB-E2, and
PDB-E1 mounting surfaces parallel and
tighten the knob.
9. Do not touch the electrical contacts on the
PB-E2, PDB-E1, and EOS-1V.

Remarks
The camera has two types of compensation data to
suit the two types of focusing screens. Therefore, if
the setting is wrong, an exposure error will result.
CF-0 is for changing the focusing screen's compen-
sation value and for preventing a wrong setting to be
set accidentally.
This prevents the focusing screen compensation data
from being cleared unnecessarily when the Custom
Function settings are cleared.
The accuracy of the information transmitted between
the camera and Speedlite is 1/8 stop. When a whole-
stop display is used, different readings may be
unavoidable.
This is to prevent burn-in of the shutter curtains and
light damage.
As per the design.
As per the design.
If the positioning guide pin is first inserted and then
the knob screw is aligned with the socket, proper
attachment will not result. The electrical contacts will
not connect properly and proper operation will not
occur.
Doing so may cause faulty connections and the cam-
era may not operate properly.
