  • Page 3: Safety Precautions

    SAFETY PRECAUTIONS The following precautions should be observed when servicing. Since many parts in the unit have special safety-related characteristics, always use genuine CANON replacement parts. Especially critical parts in the power circuit block should not be replaced with other makes.
  • Page 4 When changes occur in applicable products or in the content of this manual, Canon will release service manual report as the need arises. In the event of major changes in the contents of this manual over a long or short period, Canon may issue new editions of this manual.

    3-megapixel CCD and its improved movie functions. Furthermore, “Direct Print” support, a basic concept of Canon’s digital cameras, provides an environment in which high-picture-quality prints can be obtained easily by combining the camera with a CP-100/10 card photo printer or an Exif 2.2 compatible Bubble Jet printer (BJ 895PD/BJ 535PD).

  • Page 12 2 Features 2–1 High Grade Design / Ultra Compact - Thin stylish design for enhanced high-grade character The IXY DIGITAL 320 strives for an evolution befitting a premium three-megapixel camera while continuing the precedent set by the basic external appearance of the IXY DIGITAL 200a. This model uses a different type of processing for external parts and materials in order to create more appeal for the high quality picture sensor and lens, achieving a refined texture with more elegant character that instills a sense of satisfaction through the pleasure of possessing a tool.
  • Page 13 2-2 Full Features / Operation Ease - Selectable 9-point AiAF and single-point AF (range frame can be set arbitrarily) The AiAF range frame for the IXY DIGITAL 320 has been increased from the previous 3 points (IXY DIGITAL 200a) to 9 points. As a result, framing unconstrained by the position of the subject is possible.
  • Page 14 - Unwanted scenes can be deleted in movie playback mode The Ixy digital 320 allows unwanted sections to be deleted in the movie playback mode. However, the sections that can be deleted are either from the start of the recording to an arbitrary point or from an arbitrary point to the end of the recording.
  • Page 15 The Direct Print function has been added to the IXY DIGITAL 320 so that high-picture-quality prints can be made easily by merely connecting the camera with the supplied cable to a Canon card photo printer (CP-10/ 100) or a Bubble Jet printer (BJ F895PD/BJ F535PD/BJ F890PD). High-quality prints can be readily attained with the BJ 895PD and BJ 535PD in particular since they support Exif 2.2.
