    Failure to do so may result in fire or electrical shock. Set the camera’s main switch to the OFF position and remove the camera battery or unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet immediately. Please consult your camera distributor or the closest Canon Customer Support.
  • Page 8 • Do not handle the power cord if your hands are wet. Handling it with wet hands may lead to electrical shock. When unplugging the cord, ensure that you hold the rigid portion of the plug. Pulling the flexible portion of the cord may damage or expose the wire and insulation, creating the potential for fires or electrical shocks.

  • Page 82: Shutter-Priority Ae

    Shutter-Priority AE In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera automatically sets the aperture value to suit the brightness of the subject. This is called Shutter-Priority AE. A fast shutter speed can freeze the motion of a fast-moving subject and a slow shutter speed can blur the subject to give the impression of motion.
  • Page 83 Shutter-Priority AE Exposure Warnings • If the lens’ maximum aperture (lowest f/number like f/3.5) blinks, it indicates underex- posure. Turn the < > dial to set a slower shutter speed until the aperture display stops blinking. • If the lens’ minimum aperture (highest f/number like f/22) blinks, it indicates overexpo- sure.

  • Page 84: Aperture-Priority Ae

    Aperture-Priority AE In this mode, you set the desired aperture and the camera sets the shutter speed automati- cally to suit the subject brightness. The larger or brighter the aperture (lower f/number) the more blurred the background will become. This effect is ideal for portraits. The smaller or darker the aperture (higher f/number), the clearer the focus will be for both near and far objects (wider depth of field).

    Mirror Lockup Mirror lockup is enabled with C.Fn-12-1. (→p.149) This prevents mirror-caused vibrations which may blur the image during close-ups or when a super telephoto lens is used. To set this Custom Function, see “Setting a Custom Function” on page 145. When mirror lockup is set, the camera operates as follows.

  • Page 95: Shooting With A Flash

    The EOS 10D can take easy, natural-looking flash shots with correct subject illumination using E-TTL autoflash (preflash evaluative metering in memory) using either the camera’s built-in flash or any EOS-dedicated EX-series Speedlite. The procedure is as easy as a normal AE shot. This chapter explains how to take flash shots with the built-in flash and EOS-dedicated Speedlite 550EX.

  • Page 96: Using The Built-In Flash

    Using the Built-in Flash The built-in flash lets you take the following kinds of flash shots with the ease of a normal AE shot. ●E-TTL autoflash With E-TTL autoflash (preflash evaluative metering), optimum flash exposure is obtained for the subject in focus. In the aperture-priority AE mode, a slow sync speed is set automatically in low-light situations to obtain a natural-looking, balanced exposure between the subject and background.

  • Page 98 Using the Built-in Flash • When using an EX-series Speedlite, press the built-in flash back into the camera before mounting the external flash. • When using the built-in flash, keep at least 1 m/3.3 ft away from the subject. Other- wise the lens barrel may partially obstruct the flash coverage and cause part of the image to look dark.

  • Page 99: Using Red-Eye Reduction

    Using the Built-in Flash Using Red-eye Reduction When flash is used in a low-light environment, the subject’s eyes may come out red in the image. “Red eye” happens when the light from the flash reflects off the retina of the eyes.
