Caution
Focus bracketing is intended for still photo shooting on a tripod.
Shooting with a wider angle of view is recommended. After depth compositing, you
can crop the image if necessary.
For details on lenses compatible with this feature, visit the Canon website ( ).
Suitable [Focus increment] settings vary by subject. An unsuitable [Focus
increment] setting may cause unevenness in composite images, or shooting may
take more time because more shots are taken. Take some test shots to decide a
suitable [Focus increment] setting.
Flash photography is not available.
Shooting under flickering light may cause uneven images. In this case, lowering the
shutter speed may give better results.
Focus bracketing is not available when the camera is set to manual focus ( ).
Canceling shooting in progress may cause exposure problems in the last image.
Avoid using the last image when combining the images in Digital Photo
Professional.
Maximum shutter speed with focus bracketing is 1/8000 sec.
Depth compositing is canceled if you open the battery compartment or card slot
cover, or if the remaining battery capacity becomes too low. After cancellation,
composited images are not saved.
Depth compositing may fail for patterned images (with a lattice or stripes, for
example) or images that are generally flat and uniform.
When taking several shots, start by focusing closer, then gradually focus farther
away.
Too great a distance when moving the focal position between multiple shots may
cause unevenness in depth-composited images, or it may cause compositing to
fail.
Depth compositing is intended for subjects that are not moving. For this reason,
shooting subjects in motion may prevent effective compositing.
Depth compositing of images with multiple subjects may fail if your shots are
composed with the subjects far apart from each other, for example.
To cancel depth compositing in progress, press the < > button. Cancellation
discards the composited image but keeps all source images.
In depth compositing, optimal images from the shots are selected and combined by
the camera. Not all of the shots are combined to create the composite image.
Note
Using a tripod, remote switch (sold separately, ), or wireless remote control (sold
separately, ) is recommended.
For best results, set the aperture value in a range of f/5.6–11 before shooting.
Details such as shutter speed, aperture value, and ISO speed are determined by
conditions for the first shot.
[ : Focus bracketing] reverts to [Disable] when the power switch is set to
