Introduction

Before Starting to Shoot, Be Sure to Read the Following

To avoid shooting problems and accidents, rst read the “Safety

Instructions” (

Familiarize Yourself with the Camera

manual safely, too, so that you can refer to it again when necessary.

Testing the Camera Before Use and Liability

After shooting, play images back and check whether they have been

properly recorded. If the camera or memory card is faulty and the images

cannot be recorded or downloaded to a computer, Canon cannot be held

liable for any loss or inconvenience caused.

Copyright laws in some countries prohibit the unauthorized use of images

recorded with the camera (or music/images with music transferred to the
