C1 C2 Saving Custom Settings

This function is only available in the P, Tv, Av, M, C1, and C2 modes.

You can save frequently used shooting modes and various shooting settings to the C1/C2 (Custom) modes. When necessary, you can then shoot images with previously saved settings by simply turning the mode dial to C1 or C2. Settings that are usually forgotten when the shooting mode is changed or when the power is turned off (such as Macro mode, Continuous Shooting and Self-timer mode) are also remembered.

1. Turn the mode dial to P, Tv, Av, M, C1 or C2. When you wish to re-save partially modified settings (except shooting mode) that were previously saved in the C1 or C2 mode, select C1 or C2.
   
2. Set the setting contents you wish to save.
