u White Balance CorrectionN
You can correct the white balance that has been set. This adjustment will have the same effect as using a commercially-available color temperature conversion filter or color compensating filter. Each color can be corrected to one of nine levels. This is for advanced users who are familiar with using color temperature conversion or color compensating filters.

On the upper right, "Shift" indicates the direction and correction amount. Pressing the <B> button will cancel all the [WB Shift/BKT] settings. Press <0> to exit the setting and return to the menu.
During the white balance correction, <u> will be displayed in the viewfinder and on the LCD panel. One level of the blue/amber correction is equivalent to 5 mireds of a color temperature conversion filter. (Mired: Measuring unit indicating the density of a color temperature conversion filter.)
Sample setting: A2, G1

White Balance Auto Bracketing
With just one shot, three images having a different color balance can be recorded simultaneously. Based on the color temperature of the current white balance setting, the image will be bracketed with a blue/amber bias or magenta/green bias. This is called white balance bracketing (WB-BKT). White balance bracketing is possible up to ±3 levels in single-level increments.
Set the white balance bracketing amount.
In step 2 for white balance correction, when you turn the <5> dial, the " " mark on the screen will change to " " (3 points). Turning the dial to the right sets the B/A bracketing, and turning it to the left sets the M/G bracketing. On the right, "Bracket" indicates the bracketing direction and correction amount. Pressing the <B> button will cancel all the [WB Shift/BKT] settings. Press <0> to exit the setting and return to the menu.
B/A bias ±3 levels
Bracketing Sequence
The images will be bracketed in the following sequence: 1. Standard white balance, 2. Blue (B) bias, and 3. Amber (A) bias, or 1. Standard white balance, 2. Magenta (M) bias, and 3. Green (G) bias.
During WB bracketing, the maximum burst for continuous shooting will be lower and the number of possible shots will also decrease to one-third the normal number. You can also set white balance correction and AEB together with white balance bracketing. If you set AEB in combination with white balance bracketing, a total of nine images will be recorded for a single shot. Since three images are recorded for one shot, the card will take longer to record the shot. "BKT" stands for Bracketing.

Depending on the shooting conditions, noise might increase. If a setting other than [Disable] is set and you use exposure compensation, flash exposure compensation, or manual exposure to darken the exposure, the image might still come out bright. If you want a darker exposure, set this to [Disable] first. In Basic Zone modes, [Standard] is set automatically.
3 Lens Peripheral Illumination Correction
Due to the lens characteristics, the four corners of the picture might look darker. This is called lens light fall-off or drop in peripheral illumination. The default setting is [Enable].

3 Lens Peripheral Illumination Correction
About the Lens Correction Data
The camera already contains lens peripheral illumination correction data for about 25 lenses. In step 2, if you select [Enable], the peripheral light correction will be applied automatically for any lens whose correction data has been registered in the camera. With EOS Utility (provided software), you can check which lenses have their correction data registered in the camera. You can also register the correction data for unregistered lenses. For details, see the PDF Software Instruction Manual (on the CD-ROM) for EOS Utility.
For JPEG images already captured, lens peripheral illumination correction cannot be applied. Depending on shooting conditions, noise might appear on the image periphery. When using a non-Canon lens, setting the correction to [Disable] is recommended, even if [Correction data available] is displayed. Lens peripheral light correction is applied even when an Extender is attached. If the correction data for the attached lens has not been registered to the camera, the result will be the same as when the correction is set to [Disable]. The correction amount applied will be slightly lower than the maximum correction amount settable with Digital Photo Professional (provided software). If the lens does not have distance information, the correction amount will be lower. The higher the ISO speed, the lower the correction amount will be.

k Enjoying Movies
Basically, you can playback movies in the following three ways:
Playback on a TV set
(p.209, 212)
Use the provided AV cable or an HDMI Cable HTC-100 (sold separately) to connect the camera to a TV set. Then you can playback the captured movies and photos on the TV. If you have a High-Definition TV set and connect your camera with an HDMI cable, you can watch Full HD (Full HighDefinition: 1920x1080) and HD (HighDefinition: 1280x720) movies with higher image quality.
Movies on a card can be played only by devices compatible with MOV files. Since hard disk recorders do not have an HDMI IN terminal, the camera cannot be connected with an HDMI cable. Even if the camera is connected to a hard disk recorder with a USB cable, movies and photos cannot be played nor saved.
k Enjoying Movies
Playback on the Camera's LCD Monitor
You can playback movies on the camera's LCD monitor and even edit out the first and last scenes. You can also playback the photos and movies recorded in the card as an automatic slide show.
A movie edited with a personal computer cannot be rewritten to the card and played back with the camera.
Playback and Editing with a Personal Computer
(See the PDF file instruction manual for ZoomBrowser EX/ImageBrowser)
The movie files recorded in the card can be transferred to a personal computer and played or edited with ZoomBrowser EX/ImageBrowser (provided software). You can also extract a single frame from a movie and save it as a still photo.
To have the movie playback smoothly on a personal computer, the personal computer must be a high-performance model. Regarding the hardware requirements for ZoomBrowser EX/ImageBrowser, see the PDF file instruction manual. If you want to use commercially-available software to playback or edit the movies, be sure it is compatible with MOV files. For details on commercially-available software, inquire the software maker.

Using Eye-Fi Cards
With a commercially-available Eye-Fi card already set up, you can automatically transfer captured images to a personal computer or upload them to an online service via a wireless LAN. The image transfer is a function of the Eye-Fi card. For instructions on how to set up and use the Eye-Fi card or to troubleshoot any image transfer problems, refer to the Eye-Fi card's instruction manual or inquire the card's manufacturer. This product is not guaranteed to support Eye-Fi card functions (including wireless transfer). In case of an issue with an Eye-Fi card, please check with the card manufacturer. Also note that approval is required to use Eye-Fi cards in many countries or regions. Without approval, use of the card is not permitted. If it is unclear whether the card has been approved for use in the area, please check with the card manufacturer.

Cautions for Using Eye-Fi Cards
If " " is displayed, an error occurred while retrieving the card information. Turn the camera off and on again. Even if [Eye-Fi trans.] is set to [Disable], it may still transmit a signal. In hospitals, airports, and other places where wireless transmissions are prohibited, remove the Eye-Fi card from the camera. If the image transfer does not function, check the Eye-Fi card and personal computer settings. For details, see the card's instruction manual. Depending on the wireless LAN's connection conditions, the image transfer may take longer or it might be interrupted. Because of the transmission function, the Eye-Fi card may become hot. The battery power will be consumed faster. During the image transfer, auto power off will not take effect.
