IV. DISCUSSION OF NEW AND IMPROVED FEATURES 18
Direct Printing and
PictBridge
External Flash Control
Besides adding PictBridge, as with the EOS-1D Mark III,
two features shared with the EOS 40D have also been
incorporated that work with all Canon printers that sup-
port PictBridge. First, printing effects such as B/W, Vivid,
Brightness, and Adjust levels are now reflected in the
image displayed. Only the Face Brightener and Red-eye
Correction are not reflected in the displayed image.
Second, with the trimming screen displayed, turning the
Quick Control Dial will tilt the displayed image up to ±10
degrees in 0.5-degree increments.
All PictBridge-compatible Canon printers can now be
used to set the Brightness, Adjust levels, Contrast, Color
saturation, Color tone, and Color balance (except for
Face Brightener and Red-eye Correction). Previously, this
was possible only with the Canon PIXMA Pro9500 and Pro9000. Compatibility with Face
Brightener and Red-eye Correction depends on the printer type.
When printing sRAW images through direct printing, the JPEG image will be used to
make the print. The pixel count for the JPEG image and the sRAW image is the same. For
RAW+JPEG images, the RAW image will be used to make the print. For sRAW+JPEG
images, the JPEG image will be used to make the print. Note that if the JPEG image size
is small, print size should be limited appropriately. Finally, a RAW image taken by another
camera cannot be printed via direct printing. Since the RAW image processing method
and imaging processor differ among cameras, compatibility cannot be ensured.
The [Zoom] and [Wireless set.] flash functions have
been added. These settings make it easier to view,
summarize and set complicated wireless set-ups. As
on the EOS 40D, one can now set all wireless flash
settings with the camera’s LCD monitor instead of the
master Speedlite when the 580EX II is used. All exter-
nal flash function settings and external flash Custom
Functions settings other than these are the same as
the EOS-1D Mark III’s.
