Canon 1000 Digital Camera User Manual


 
Shutter Release
Once you have focused, composed your
picture and confirmed correct exposure,
gently press the shutter button all the way
down to set the shutter in motion. When the
shutter is released, the exposure will be
stored, so there is no problem in removing
your finger from the shutter button even in
the slow speed range.
If you press the shutter button in one very
quick stroke, the viewfinder display will
become invisible and the camera's function
may be delayed for an instant, but exposure
metering will not be affected and your
picture will be accurately exposed. If you
press the shutter button with an extremely
quick punch, it is possible that the shutter
will not be released at all. For proper
function and the least camera shake, it is
best to press the shutter button gently.
To cancel shutter release, press the battery
check button or return the main switch to
“L”. Shutter release WILL NOT be
cancelled in the slow shutter speed range
simply by turning the AT dial to a higher
shutter
speed.
Pressing the shutter button will not make an
exposure if the film is only partially ad-
vanced or if battery power is too low.
Rewinding the Film
When you have reached the end of the film,
the film advance lever will stop suddenly
before the end of its stroke. DO NOT force
the film advance lever beyond this point or
the film may become detached from the
cartridge or tear, making rewinding impos-
sible and necessitating handling the film in
total darkness or a changing bag. Also DO
NOT open the camera's back cover before
rewinding or your film will be totally ex-
posed.
