● General Precautions
• Before an important event such as a trip or wedding, be sure to test the camera to make
sure it is operating correctly.

EF lenses, flash and other Canon brand accessories. It is possible that the use of incom-
patible lenses or other accessories may result in unsatisfactory performance or damage to
