    Troubleshooting Guide
     With [51: File name], select the camera’s unique file name or the file 
    name registered under User setting 1 (p.156).
      If the card already contains re corded images, the image number may 
    not start from 0001 (p.158).
      Make sure the correct date and time has been set (p.40).
      Check the time zone and daylight savings time (p.41).
     
    The shooting date and time does not  appear in the picture. The date and 
    time is instead recorded in the imag e data as shooting information. When 
    printing, you can imprint the date and ti me in the picture by using the date 
    and time recorded in the s hooting information (p.40, 305).
     If the card has recorded a number of images greater than the camera 
    can display, [ ###] will be displayed (p.257).
      In low temperatures, the display  speed of the AF points may become 
    slower due to the AF point di splay device’s (liquid crystal) 
    characteristics. The display speed  will return to normal at room 
    temperature.
      If the LCD monitor is dirty,  use a soft cloth to clean it.
      In low or high temperatures, the  LCD monitor display may seem slow 
    or may look black. It will retu rn to normal at room temperature.
    The fourth character in the file name changes.
    The file numbering does not start from 0001.
    The shooting date and time displayed is incorrect.
    The date and time is not in the picture.
    [###] is displayed.
    In the viewfinder, the AF po int display speed is slow.
    The LCD monitor does not display a clear image.

      Movies edited with a personal com puter cannot be played with the 
    camera.
      If you operate the camera’s dials or  lens during movie shooting, the 
    operation noise will also be reco rded. Using an external microphone 
    (commercially available) is recommended (p.237).
      During autoexposure movie shooting, if  there is a drastic change in the 
    exposure level, the recording will  stop momentarily until the brightness 
    stabilizes. If this  happens, shoot in the  mode (p.225).

    automatically (p.234).
      If you format a card of 128 GB or hi gher with this camera, it will be 
    formatted in exFAT. This means that some card readers and computer 
    operating systems might not recognize  the card properly. In such a 
    case, connect your camera to the co mputer with the provided interface 
    cable, then transfer the images to  your computer using EOS Utility 
    (provided software, p.410).
      41  and 61  images cannot be processed with the camera. Use 
    the provided software Digital Phot o Professional to process the image 
    (p.410).
