Handling Precautions
•	 The camera is a high-precision electronic device. Avoid dropping it or 
subjecting it to strong impact.
•	 Never bring the camera near magnets, motors, or other devices that 
generate strong electromagnetic fields, which may cause malfunction or 
erase image data.
•	 If water droplets or dirt adheres to the camera or screen, wipe with a d\
ry 
soft cloth, such as an eyeglass cloth. Do not rub hard or apply force.
•	 Never use cleaners containing organic solvents to clean the camera or 
screen.
•	 Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens. If cleaning is difficult, 
contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
•	 To prevent condensation from forming on the camera after sudden 
temperature changes (when the camera is transferred from cold to warm 
environments), put the camera in an airtight, resealable plastic bag an\
d 
let it gradually adjust to the temperature before removing it from the b\
ag.
•	 If condensation does form on the camera, stop using it immediately. 
Continuing to use the camera in this state may damage it. Remove 
the battery pack and memory card, and wait until the moisture has 
evaporated before resuming use.
•	 Before long-term battery storage, use up the battery pack’s remaining 
charge, remove it from the camera, and store it in a plastic bag or simi\
lar 
container. Storing a partially charged battery pack over extended periods 
(about a year) may shorten its life or affect performance.

•
 The values in the table are measured according to Canon standards and ma\
y change 
depending on the subject, memory card and camera settings.
•
 The values in the table are based on 4:3 aspect ratio. If the aspect rat\
io is changed 
(=  36), more images can be shot because the data size per image will be smal\
ler 
than with 4:3 images. However, since [] 16:9 images have a setting of 1920 x 1080 
pixels, their data size will be larger than 4:3 images.
