Remote Shooting
Enables quiet operation when the shutter button is OFF after
picture-taking
O When single shooting is selected, this function selects quiet camera operation when you
release the shutter button from the fully pressed position to the half way position.
O This is useful when the camera operation noise would be disturbing after you take the
picture.
Changes the timer’s time length
O After you press and release a button, the respective function remains active for a specific
number of seconds. You can change this number of seconds as necessary.
O The function’s activation time can be set from 0 to 3600 sec. (1 hour).
O If the standard activation time is too short or too long, you can adjust it.
Illuminates the LCD panel during bulb exposures
O After the bulb exposure starts, press the <LCD panel illumination> button to illuminate the
LCD panel until the bulb exposure ends.
O Convenient when you want to monitor the elapsed bulb exposure time.
If you select continuous shooting, the camera operates normally.
Setting mirror lockup with C.Fn-12 will further reduce the shooting noise.
6 sec. timer
O AE lock time after you press the shutter button halfway or the < >
button.
16 sec. timer O FE lock time after you press the < > button.
Post-shutter
release timer
(2 sec. timer)
O Exposure setting retaining time after the picture is taken. Setting
this to a longer time can make it easier to shoot in the same
exposure with AE lock.
O LCD panel illumination time after the picture is taken.
Note that if you set a longer activation time, the battery become exhausted more quickly
and the number of possible shots will be reduced.
To turn off the function’s activation time midway, press the < > button, < >
button or < > button.
Note that if you take bulb shots for long periods, the battery becomes exhausted more
quickly and the number of possible shots will be reduced.

Sets the default settings when the <CLEAR> button is ON
O You can use this function to select the default settings when you press the <CLEAR>
button.
O Convenient when you want to instantly switch to frequently-used settings.
Shortened release time lag
O This function is compatible with the EOS-1D Mark II N, EOS-1Ds Mark II and EOS-1D
Mark II.
O Normally, the shutter-release time lag is controlled for stability. This Personal Function
eliminates this control. As a result, the shutter-release time lag can be reduced by as much
as about 20 percent when the aperture needs to be stopped down by no more than 3 stops.
O This is effective when a shorter shutter-release time lag is more important than a stable
shutter-release time lag.
Enables the electronic dial’s function to be used in the reverse
direction
O The electronic dial’s rotational function can be reversed for selecting the AF point and
setting the shutter speed and aperture.
O By matching the dial’s rotation direction to the particular operation, the operation can feel
more intuitive.
Prevents exposure compensation with the Quick Control Dial
O The Quick Control Dial cannot be used to set exposure compensation.
O This prevents exposure compensation from being set accidentally while the AF point is
being selected.
Since the difference is in 10-millisecond increments, the time lag may not feel any
shorter.
When the Main Dial’s rotational function is reversed, the horizontal AF point selection
direction does not change.
