Depth-of-Field AE [DEP] [Warning Indications] • If the aperture value blinks, the desired depth of field cannot be obtained. Use a wideangle lens or move farther from the subject and repeat steps 4 through 6. • If the shutter speed of 30" and the maximum aperture of the lens blink, the scene will be underexposed and Depth-of-Field AE cannot be carried out. • If the shutter speed of 8000 and the minimum aperture of the lens blink, the scene will be overexposed. Use a neutral density (ND) filter to reduce the amount of light entering the lens. • When using a zoom lens, do not zoom the lens until you finish taking the picture. • Changing the focusing point during Depth-of-Field AE operation cancels any previously set data. • Flash cannot be used effectively in depth-of-field AE mode. Use of flash will provide the same result as using flash in Program AE mode. • When using a lens equipped with a focus range selector (such as the EF300mm f/2.8L USM), be sure to set it to the maximum range. • If the camera sets a slow shutter speed, use a tripod to prevent camera shake. • To cancel Depth-of-Field AE in mid-operation, press the focusing point selector, the shooting mode selector, the AF mode selector or the metering mode selector. • For greater depth of field, we recommend using a wide-angle lens. • For shallow depth of field, place both points 1 and 2 on the same point. This method is effective for blurring the foreground and background when shooting portraits. Use a telephoto lens for best effect. 58

If the aperture value blinks, the desired depth of field cannot be obtained. Use a wide-
angle lens or move farther from the subject and repeat steps 4 through 6.
•
If the shutter speed of 30” and the maximum aperture of the lens blink, the scene will
be underexposed and Depth-of-Field AE cannot be carried out.

•
Changing the focusing point during Depth-of-Field AE operation cancels any previously
set data.
•
Flash cannot be used effectively in depth-of-field AE mode. Use of flash will provide the
same result as using flash in Program AE mode.
•
When using a lens equipped with a focus range selector (such as the EF300mm f/2.8L

If the camera sets a slow shutter speed, use a tripod to prevent camera shake.
•
To cancel Depth-of-Field AE in mid-operation, press the focusing point selector, the
shooting mode selector, the AF mode selector or the metering mode selector.
•
For greater depth of field, we recommend using a wide-angle lens.
•
For shallow depth of field, place both points 1 and 2 on the same point. This method is
