Preliminary Notes and Legal

Information

● Take and review some test shots initially to make sure the

images were recorded correctly. Please note that Canon Inc.,

its subsidiaries and afliates, and its distributors are not liable

for any consequential damages arising from any malfunction

of a camera or accessory, including memory cards, that result

in the failure of an image to be recorded or to be recorded in a

way that is machine readable.

● Images recorded by the camera shall be for personal use.

Refrain from unauthorized recording that infringes on copyright

law, and note that even for personal use, photography

may contravene copyright or other legal rights at some

performances or exhibitions, or in some commercial settings.

● The camera warranty is valid only in the area of purchase. In

case of camera problems while abroad, return to the area of

purchase before contacting a Canon Customer Support Help

Desk.

● Although the screen (monitor) is produced under extremely

high-precision manufacturing conditions and more than

99.99% of the pixels meet design specications, in rare cases

some pixels may be defective or may appear as red or black

dots. This does not indicate camera damage or affect recorded

images.

● When the camera is used over an extended period, it may

become warm. This does not indicate damage.
