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
affiliates, 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 LCD monitor and viewfinder are produced under extremely
high-precision manufacturing conditions and more than 99.99°/o of the
pixels meet design specifications,
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.
The LCD monitor may
be covered with a thin plastic film for protection
against scratches during shipment. If covered, remove the film before
using the camera.
When the camera
is used over an extended period, it may become warm.
This does not indicate damage.
