Saturation are set to obtain vivid colors. The Portrait Style has Color Tone and Saturation
set to obtain natural skin tones. Sharpness, one step weaker than in Standard, is kinder
to skin. With the Landscape Style, Color Tone and Saturation are set to achieve deep,
vivid blues and greens for skies and foliage. The Sharpness is set one step more than
Standard so that the outlines of mountains, trees and buildings look crisp. The fourth
Style, Neutral, is the same as the default setting for previous EOS-1D series cameras.
Natural color reproduction is obtained and no sharpness is applied, anticipating the
knowledgeable post-processing for which this setting is ideal. Like Neutral, the Faithful
Picture Style applies no sharpening. It is the same as Digital Photo Professional's
Faithful setting. When the subject is photographed under a color temperature of 5200K,
the color is adjusted colorimetrically to match the subject's color, even with JPEG
images. Each of these five preset Picture Styles can be altered manually in the menu for
Sharpness, Contrast, Color Tone and Saturation, so personal settings are easy to develop.
The sixth Picture Style is Monochrome, identical to the EOS 20D camera's monochrome
setting. Sharpness is preset at 3 and Contrast is at its middle value. Instead of the
inappropriate Color Tone and Color Saturation, settings for Filter Effects (None, Yellow,
Orange, Red, Green) and Toning Effect (None, Sepia, Blue, Purple, Green) are offered.
User defined PC Settings, set with software under development, may become available
at release or separately, as may additional, downloadable Picture Styles.

turned on or not. On the EOS 5D model, C.Fn-2, noise reduction for long exposures, has
three settings:On, Off or Auto noise reduction. In Auto with exposures of 1 second or
longer, if noise caused by a long exposure or high temperature, such as spotty noise or
reddish corners, is detected, noise reduction is performed automatically, regardless of
ISO. This setting is highly effective and useful for photographers at all levels.
When C.Fn-2 is set to On, noise reduction is always performed for exposures of 1 second
or longer, also regardless of ISO. This setting is most valuable in the uncommon
occurrence of noise that cannot be detected automatically, such as that generated by
low temperatures.
Like the EOS-1Ds Mark II model, the EOS 5D digital SLR enables continuous shooting
even while noise reduction is performed, as long as the buffer memory has room.
Cleverly, when shutter speed-priority AE or manual exposure is set and continuous
shooting is done at the same shutter speed, noise reduction will be performed in a
single process on all shots based on the first shot.
