Printing (p.202)
You can connect the camera directly to a printer and print
out the images in the card. The camera is compatible with
"y'#'PictBridge" which is the standard for direct printing.
Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) (p.211)
DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) enables you to print
images recorded in the card according to your printing
instructions such as the image selection, quantity to print,
etc. You can print multiple images in one batch or give the
print order to a photofinisher.

Preparing to Print
The direct printing procedure is done entirely with the camera
while you look at the LCD monitor.
Set the camera's power switch to
<OFF>.
Set up the printer.
For details, see the printer's
instruction manual.
Connecting the camera to the
printer.
Use the interface cable provided with
the camera.
Connect the cable to the camera's

<_ > icon facing the front of the
camera.
To connect to the printer, refer to the
printer's instruction manual.

The camera cannot be used with printers compatible only with CP Direct
or Bubble Jet Direct.
Do not use any interface cable other than the one provided.
If there is a long beeping sound in step 5, it indicates a problem with the
printer. Resolve the problem displayed by the error message (p.210).
You can also print RAW images taken with this camera.
If you use a battery pack to power the camera, make sure it is fully
charged. With a fully-charged battery, printing up to about 4 hr. 30 rain. is
possible.
Before disconnecting the cable, first turn off the camera and printer. Hold
the plug (not the cord) to pull out the cable.
For direct printing, using AC Adapter Kit ACK-E 10 (sold separately) to
power the camera is recommended.

When printing with DPOF, you must use the card whose print order
specifications have been set. It will not work if you just extract images
from the card and try to print them.
Certain DPOF-compatible printers and photofinishers might not be able
to print the images as you specified. If this happens with your printer,
refer to the printer's instruction manual. Or check with your photofinisher
about compatibility when ordering prints.
Do not insert into the camera a card whose print order was set by a
different camera and then try to specify a print order. The print order may
not work or may be overwritten. Also, depending on the image type, the
print order may not be possible.
RAW images and movies cannot be print ordered. You can print RAW
images through direct printing (p.202).

Custom Function Settings _
Custom Functions are organized into four groups based on the function
type: C.Fn I: Exposure, C.Fn ll: Image, C.Fn Ill: Autofocus/Drive, C.Fn
W: Operation/Others.
0: 1/3-stop
1: 1/2-stop
Sets 1/2-stop increments for the shutter speed, aperture, exposure
compensation, AEB, flash exposure compensation, etc. Effective when
you prefer to control the exposure in less fine increments than 1/3-stop
increments.
With setting 1, the exposure level will be displayed inthe viewfinder and on
the LCD monitor as shown below.
When you use flash in the aperture-priority AE mode (Av), you can set the
flash sync speed.
0: Auto
The flash sync speed is set automatically within a range of 1/200 sec. to
30 sec. to suit the scene's brightness. With an external Speedlite, high-
speed sync will also be possible.
1:1/200-fi60 sec. auto
Prevents a slow shutter speed from being set in low-light conditions. It is
effective for preventing subject blur and camera shake. However, while
the subject will be properly exposed with the flash, the background may
come out dark.
2:11200 sec. (fixed)
The flash-sync speed is fixed to 1/200 sec. This more effectively
prevents subject blur and camera shake than with setting 1. However,
the background may come out darker than with setting 1.
@ When 1 or 2 is set, high-speed sync cannot be used with an external
Speedlite.
218

Custom Function Settings*
0: Off
1: Auto
For 1 sec. or longer exposures, noise reduction is performed
automatically if noise typical of long exposures is detected. This [Auto]
setting is effective in most cases.
2: On
Noise reduction is performed for all exposures of 1 sec. or longer. The
[On] setting may be effective for noise that cannot be detected or
reduced with the [Auto] setting.
With settings 1 and 2, the continuous shooting speed will be slower even
with shutter speeds faster than 1 sec. (with the image-recording quality
set to JPEG). The maximum burst during continuous shooting will also
decrease (with the image-recording quality set to JPEG). Settings 1 and
2 are recommended only when shooting long exposures.
With settings 1 and 2, after the picture is taken, the noise reduction
process may take the same amount of time as the exposure. You cannot
take another picture until the noise reduction process is completed.
At USO1600 and higher, noise might be more pronounced with setting 2
than with setting 0 or 1.
With setting 1 or 2, if a long exposure is shot with the Live View image
displayed, "BUSY" will be displayed during the noise reduction process.
The Live View display will not appear until the noise reduction is
completed. (You cannot take another picture.)
Reduces the noise generated in the image. Although noise reduction is
applied at all ISO speeds, it is particularly effective at high ISO speeds. At
low ISO speeds, the noise in the shadow areas is further reduced. Change
the setting to suit the noise level.
0: Standard 2: Strong
1: Low 3: Disable
