*1 This digital camera supports Exif 2.21 (also called "Exif Print"). Exif Print is a standard for enhancing the communication between digital cameras and printers. By connecting to an Exif Print-compliant printer, the camera's image data at the time of shooting is used and optimized, yielding extremely high quality prints.

The data above reflects standard Canon testing conditions.The actual figures will vary according to the shooting conditions and settings.
-
Movie data is excluded.
-
At low temperatures, the battery pack performance may diminish and the low battery icon appear very rapidly. In these circumstances, the performance can be improved by warming the battery pack in a pocket before use.
<Test Conditions>
Shooting: Normal temperature (23o C +/- 2o C/73o F +/- 3.6o F), normal relative humidity (50% +/- 20%), alternating wide angle end and telephoto end shots at 30 second intervals with the flash fired once every two shots and the camera power turned off after every tenth shot. Power is left off for a sufficient amount of time*, then the power is turned back on and the testing procedure is repeated.
-
The included memory card is used.
-
The LCD monitor is turned on for the CIPA standard.
*Until the battery returns to normal temperature
Playback: Normal temperature (23o C, 73o F), continuous playback at one image per 3 seconds. CF card used.
