Page 81
Start calibration. Look at the indicator displayed and press the < > button. Keep looking at the indicator without blinking until it disappears. This process is repeated for indicators at five positions (center, right, left, top, and bottom). Perform calibration for vertical shooting. For higher eye control accuracy, select [Refine] and perform calibration for vertical shooting.
Page 82
Exit calibration. Select [Exit]. Calibration results (calibration data) are saved to the calibration number shown in step 2. After calibration, look through the viewfinder and make sure the pointer moves in response. If the pointer does not seem to follow your gaze closely, perform calibration again.
Page 83
Adding calibration data To register calibration data for other users or eyewear conditions, select an available number to assign the data to from the numbers labeled with [ ] on the [CAL no.] screen, then perform calibration.

Page 89
General eye control precautions When multiple people will use eye control on the same camera, each person should select a different calibration number and perform calibration. Similarly, when the same person will use eye control with and without glasses or contact lenses, a different calibration number should be selected and calibration performed for each situation.
Page 90
Enhancing eye control accuracy The camera can learn about eye characteristics from the calibration data it collects. Eye control accuracy can be improved by repeating calibration under various levels of brightness (such as indoors, outdoors, during the day, and at night) for the same calibration number.

HDR PQ Settings PQ in HDR PQ refers to the gamma curve of the input signal for displaying HDR images. HDR PQ settings enable the camera to produce HDR images conforming to the PQ specification defined in ITU-R BT.2100 and SMPTE ST.2084. (Actual display depends on monitor performance.) Shots are captured as HEIF or RAW images.
Page 174
Caution Expanded ISO speeds (L, H) are not available in HDR shooting. Some scenes may look different from how they appear on an HDR display device. Unused signal values are roughly indicated by image areas in gray in the histogram when [ : HDR shooting ] is set to [Enable].
HDR Mode You can shoot still photos with clipped highlights and shadows reduced for a high dynamic range of tones even in high-contrast scenes. HDR shooting is effective for landscape and still-life shots. HDR shooting enhances gradation in dark image areas by merging three images deliberately captured at different exposures (standard, underexposed, and overexposed) to produce an HDR image that compensates for loss of detail in dark image areas.
Page 176
Set [Limit max brightness] (only with [ : HDR shooting ] set to [Enable]). With [Disable], maximum brightness is not limited. Recommended when you will review images on a monitor supporting display at brightnesses exceeding 1000 nits. With [1000 nits], maximum brightness is limited to approx. 1000 nits. Set [Continuous HDR].

Anti-Flicker Shooting Uneven exposure and color may appear in continuous shooting at fast shutter speeds under flickering light sources such as fluorescent lights, due to uneven vertical exposure. Anti- flicker shooting enables you to take pictures when exposure and colors are less affected by flickering.
Page 185
Caution When [Enable] is set and you shoot under a flickering light source, the shutter- release time lag may become longer. Also, the continuous shooting speed may become slower, and the shooting interval may become irregular. Flicker at a frequency other than 50Hz or 60Hz cannot be detected. Also, if the flickering frequency of the light source changes during continuous shooting, effects of the flicker cannot be reduced.
High-Frequency Anti-Flicker Shooting Images may be affected by banding if you shoot under light sources that flicker at high frequencies. High-frequency anti-flicker shooting enables you to take pictures at suitable shutter speeds for high-frequency flickering, which minimizes the effect of this flickering on images.

Lens Aberration Correction Peripheral Illumination Correction Distortion Correction Digital Lens Optimizer Chromatic Aberration Correction Diffraction Correction Vignetting, image distortion, and other issues may be caused by lens optical characteristics. The camera can compensate for these phenomena by using [Lens aberration correction]. Select [ : Lens aberration correction].
Page 247
Select a setting. Confirm that the name of the attached lens and [Correction data available] are displayed. If [Correction data not available] or [ ] is displayed, see Digital Lens Optimizer. Peripheral Illumination Correction Vignetting (dark image corners) can be corrected. Caution Depending on shooting conditions, noise may appear on the image periphery.
Page 248
Distortion Correction Distortion (image warping) can be corrected. Caution To correct distortion, the camera captures a narrower image area than the area seen in viewfinder shooting, which crops the image a little and slightly lowers the apparent resolution. Applying distortion correction may change the angle of view slightly. The amount of image cropped may vary between still photos and movies.
Page 249
Digital Lens Optimizer Various aberrations from lens optical characteristics can be corrected, along with diffraction and low-pass filter-induced loss of resolution. If [Correction data not available] or [ ] is displayed by [Digital Lens Optimizer], you can use EOS Utility to add the lens correction data to the camera. For details, refer to the EOS Utility Instruction Manual.
Page 250
Chromatic Aberration Correction Chromatic aberration (color fringing around subjects) can be corrected. Note [Chromatic aberr corr] is not displayed when [Digital Lens Optimizer] is set to [Standard] or [High].
Page 251
General precautions for lens aberration correction Lens aberration correction cannot be applied to existing JPEG/HEIF images. When using a non-Canon lens, setting the corrections to [Disable] is recommended even if [Correction data available] is displayed. Magnifying the periphery of the image may display parts of the image that will not be recorded.
Page 252
Note General notes for lens aberration correction Effects of lens aberration correction vary by lens and shooting conditions. Also, the effect may be difficult to discern depending on the lens used, shooting conditions, etc. If the correction is difficult to discern, magnifying and checking the image after shooting is recommended.
Long Exposure Noise Reduction Noise such as dots of light or banding that tends to occur in long exposures at shutter speeds of one sec. or slower can be reduced. Select [ : Long exp. noise reduction]. Set a reduction option. Auto For images exposed for 1 sec.
Page 254
Caution With [Auto] or [Enable] set, noise reduction after you shoot may take as long as exposure for the shot. Images may look grainier with the [Enable] setting than with the [Disable] or [Auto] setting. [BUSY] is displayed as noise is reduced, and the shooting screen is not displayed until processing is finished, when you can shoot again.
High ISO Speed Noise Reduction You can reduce the image noise generated. This function is especially effective when shooting at high ISO speeds. When shooting at low ISO speeds, the noise in the darker parts of the image (shadow areas) can further be reduced. Select [ : High ISO speed NR].
Page 256
Caution Precautions on Multi Shot Noise Reduction If there is significant misalignment in the image due to camera shake, the noise reduction effect may become smaller. Be careful about camera shake in handheld shots. Using a tripod is recommended. If you shoot a moving subject, the moving subject may leave afterimages. Auto image alignment may not function properly with repetitive patterns (lattice, stripes, etc.) or flat, single-tone images.
Dust Delete Data Acquisition Preparation Dust Delete Data Appending Dust Delete Data used to erase dust spots can be appended to images in case sensor cleaning leaves dust on the sensor. The Dust Delete Data is used by Digital Photo Professional (EOS software) to erase the dust spots automatically.

Setting Up GPS Features GPS Settings GPS Precautions GPS features of the camera can be used to geotag images, set the time, and more. The camera can receive signals from GPS satellites (USA), GLONASS satellites (Russia), and the Quasi-Zenith Satellite System “Michibiki” (Japan). Caution Geotag information may not be recorded or inaccurate information may be recorded where GPS signal coverage is poor, such as in the following places.
Page 803
Specify the GPS operating mode. In [Mode 1], the camera continues to acquire GPS signals at regular intervals with the power switch set to < > or even < >. In [Mode 2], the camera acquires GPS signals with the power switch set to < >.

GPS logger By setting [Log GPS position] to [Enable], you can automatically record geotag information at specific intervals along the route that the camera travels. Geotag information is recorded at the interval set in [Position update intvl] as log data saved in the camera's internal memory by date.
Page 807
Caution In [Mode 1], GPS logging continues even with the power switch set to < >. In [Mode 2], setting the power switch to < > deactivates GPS logging. However, GPS logging continues during auto power off. Geotag information added to images may be inaccurate under some traveling conditions, in some locations, or under some GPS settings.
Page 808
Position data retention To continue geotagging images even where satellite coverage is poor (if you go indoors, for example) by using geotag information in log data, setting [Position data retention] to [Unlimited] is recommended. The most recently acquired geotag information is added to log data until new information can be acquired.
