4 Welcome to the world of SLR photography! Your new T50 combines built-in power winding with the sophisticated electronics of Canon's pro grammed SLRs. It is as easy to use as a com pact camera, yet affords the special flexibility that only SLRs give: lens interchangeability.

6 1. Attaching the Lens Turn the rear lens cap in the di- rection of the arrow until it stops. Then pull it off the lens. Remove the body cap. To reattach the rear lens cap, align it with the lens as illustrat ed. Then lightly push it in and turn it clockwise until it stops.
7 To mount the lens, first align the red positioning point on the lens with the red dot above the camera mount as illustrated. Then turn the lens in the direc tion of the arrow until it stops and the lens release button pops out with a click. To dismount the lens, turn the lens in the direction of the arrow while pressing the lens release button.
8 2. Setting the Lens for Programmed AE Remove the front lens cap While pressing in the AE lock pin, turn the aperture ring in the direction of the arrow until "A" click-stops at the distance index. "A" will be in line with the red dot on the camera.
9 3. Loading the Batteries The T50 needs batteries to power it. Use two new penlight (size AA, 1.5V) batteries of the same brand. We recommend Alkaline-manganese (LR6) bat teries for longer battery life. Carbon-zinc batteries may also be used, but their life is shorter.
10 4. Checking the Batteries Hints: 1. Wipe the battery terminals and the camera contacts with a clean, dry cloth before loading to ensure proper contact. 2. When shooting in temperatures below 0°C (32°F), keep your camera and spare batteries close to your body or in a pocket until you are ready to take a pic ture.
11 5. Selector Dial "PROGRAM" is the picture- taking position. "SELF" is the position for self timer photography. "L" locks the shutter to prevent accidental shutter release. Turn the dial to "L" when not using the camera; this conserves battery power.
12 6. Setting the Film Speed While pressing the lock release button, rotate the film speed dial until the ISO/ASA of your film is aligned with the green index. This is necessary for getting cor rect exposure. A film's ISO/ASA number (for exam ple, ISO/ASA 1 00) represents its sensitivity to light.
13 7. Loading the Film Pull up the rewind knob until the back cover pops open. Too much film slack. The T50 uses color or black and white film (negative or slide) in standard 35 mm cartridges. Place the cartridge in the film chamber as shown. Then push the rewind knob down, turning it until it drops into its normal posi- tion.
14 Turn the selector dial to “PROGRAM." Keep your finger pressed on the shutter button until the frame counter automatically stops at "1." While doing this, keep an eye on the rewind knob. If it ro tates in the direction of the arrow (see above right), the film is loaded correctly.
15 8. Learning to Hold the Camera Correctly Loading the Film in Low or Humid Temperatures In low temperatures, film with a long leader may become curled. Manually wind the excess leader back into the cartridge to straighten out the curl. Then pull the film back out and align its tip with the orange index.
16 9. Shooting Make sure that the selector dial is set to "PROGRAM." Shutter speed is the amount of time the shutter remains open for exposure. Aperture in photo ter- minology refers to the size of the lens opening. Shutter speed and aperture are the variables forming Look into the viewfinder.
17 A rapidly blinking "P" (about 8 times per second) means shoot ing is not possible without the use of flash. See p. 24 for more on photography with the Canon Speedlite 244T. The solid line indicates the meter coupling range in programmed AE when the FD 50 mm f/1.
18 10. Continuous Shooting Press the shutter button all the way. The film will automatically advance to the next frame. One of the greatest features of the T50 is its built-in power winder.
19 11. The T50's Viewfinder The T50's viewfinder is bright and easy to use, displaying only the necessary information through a Light-Emitting Diode (LED) system of illumination. You may have been wondering how the T50 measures lighting conditions and provides correct exposure.
20 12. Focusing Aids Out-of-focus The focusing aids in the center of the viewfinder will help you focus all your pictures sharply. They can be used alone or in combination. See the illustration on the facing page. In-focus 1. Laser Matte Screen --------When it is difficult to focus the subject, use the laser matte screen.
21 13. Viewfinder Information 4. Manual control LED Blinks when the lens aperture ring is detached from "A." Warns that exposure may not be correct 5. Programmed AE control LED/Camera shake, Under- exposure warning "P" lights up to indicate cor rect exposu re.
22 14. Self-Timer Set the selector dial to "SELF" and focus your picture. To start the self-timer, press the shutter button. A beeping sound will be emitted. The shutter will be released automatically ten seconds later. At two seconds before shutter release, the camera will begin to beep at a faster rate.
23 15. Rewinding the Film At the end of the roll of film, film advance will stop automatically and, after a pause, the camera will beep to inform you. First press in the rewind button. (Once you have pressed it, you can remove your finger.) Then turn the rewind crank in the direction of the arrow.
24 16. Dedicated Flash Photography with the Canon Speedlite 244T When the rewind crank feels loose, open the back cover. The frame counter will automatically return to "S." Remove the film cartridge as illustrated and place it back in its canister.
25 Depress the shutter button half way; once the " ! " mark signals that the flash is charged, you are ready for flash photography. You need not make any settings. The aperture is automatically set for the best exposure results. The shutter speed is also set au- tomatically to X-sync (1/60 sec).
26 17. Photography with the Remote Switch 60 T3 The Remote Switch 60 T3 is a useful accessory that has also been designed exclusively for the T50. Attached directly to the camera body, it enables you to shoot by remote control. And since the T50 has a built-in power winder, you do not need an extra accessory to advance the film.
27 18. Other Accessories Lens Hood Dioptric Adjustment Lenses S We strongly recommend the use of a lens hood to keep out side light which may cause flare and ghost images to form on the image. Rigid Canon hoods also help to protect the lens from shock.
28 Canon Wireless Controller LC-1 Interval Timer TM-1 Quartz This accessory is a remote control photography device using infrared rays to control cameras from a distance. The LC-1 is particularly useful in sports photography, wildlife photography, news coverage, and for numerous other fields.
29 19. Carrying the Camera Thread the ends of the strap through the rings on the camera as shown. For carrying the camera, in par- ticular, insert it into its semi-hard case (optional accessory) as shown. Unsnap the top cover of the case to remove it.
30 20. Caring for Your Camera As with any precision instrument, proper care and maintenance involve a few simple rules in addition to common sense. Observing these few rules will keep your T50 in top condition at all times. 1. The best thing you can do for your T50 is to use it regularly.
31 6. If the lens surfaces are clean, yet the view- finder appears dusty, the picture will not be affected by the dust in the viewfinder. If the mirror gets dirty, it will not affect pictures but it may make viewing difficult. Dust it VERY gently with a blower brush.
