74 The AF mode is the autofocusing operation method. Three AF modes are provided. One -Shot AF is suited for still subjects, while AI Ser vo AF is for mov ing subjects. And AI Focus AF switches fr om One-Shot AF to AI Servo AF automatically if the still subject starts moving.
75 f Selecting the AF Mode N Pressing the shutter button halfway activates th e autofocus and ac hiev es focu s onc e. X The AF point which a chieves focus flas hes br iefly . At the same time, the foc us confi rmati on light < o > in the vi ewfinder is displayed.
f Selecting the AF Mode N 76 * About Predictive AF If the subject approaches or retreats from the c amera at a c onstant rate, the camera tracks the subject and predicts the focusing dist ance immediately be fore the picture is taken. This is for obtaining correct focus at the moment of exposure.
77 The AF point is used for focusing. The AF point can be selected automatically by the c ame ra or manually by you. In the < 1 > (Full Auto) mode, automatic selection will be set. The camera selects the AF point aut omatically according to the shooting conditions.
S Selecting the AF Point N 78 Press the < S > button, t hen turn the < 6 > dial or < 5 > dial to select the AF point in the looping sequence shown on the lef t. The EOS 5D will execute high-precision AF with lenses whose maximum aperture is f/2.

The asterisk M appended on the right of the page title indicates that the respective feature cannot be changed in the < 1 > (Full Auto) mode.
84 Like < 1 > (Full Auto) mode, this is a general-purpose shoot ing mode. The camera aut omatically sets the shutter speed and aperture value to suit the subject’s brightness. This is called Program AE. * < d > stands for Progr am * AE stands for Au to Exposure 1 Set the Mode Dial to < d >.
85 d Program AE If “ 30" ” and the maxi mum apert ure blink, it indicates underexp osure. Incr ease the ISO speed or use flash. If “ 8000 ” and th e minimum aperture blink, it in dicates overexpos ure. Decrea se the IS O speed or use an ND filter (o ptional) to r educe the am ount of li ght enterin g the lens.
86 In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera automatically sets the aperture value to suit the brightness of the subject. This is called Shutter-Priority AE. A fast shutter speed can freeze the motion of a fast-moving subject and a slow shut ter speed can blur the subject to give the impress ion of motion.
87 s Shutter-Priority AE If the maximum aper ture blinks, it indicates underexp osure. Turn the < 6 > dial t o set a slower shutter sp eed until th e apertur e value stops bl inking or set a h igher I SO speed. If the mi nimum aper ture blinks, i t indicates over expo sure.
88 In this mode, you set the desired aperture and the camer a sets the shutter speed automatically to suit the subject brightness. This is called aperture-prior ity AE. A larger aperture openin g (smaller f/number) will result in a blurred background ideal for portr aits.
89 f Aperture-Priority AE If the “ 30" ” shutter spee d blinks, it indicates underexp osure. Turn the < 6 > dial t o set a larg er apert ure (smalle r f/numbe r) until the blink ing stops or set a high er IS O spee d. If the “ 8000 ” sh utter spee d blinks, it indicates over expo sure.
90 In this mode, you set both the shutt er speed and apert ure value as desired. T o determine the ex posure, refer to the exposure level indicat or in the viewfinder or use a handheld exposure meter . This method is called manual exposure. * < a > stands for Manual.
91 a Manual Exposure 5 Set the ex posure. Check the exposure level and set the desired shutter s peed and aperture value. 6 T ake the pi cture. : S tandard exposure level. : T o set it to the standard exposure level, set a slower shutter speed or a larger aperture.
92 Exposu re com pensatio n is us ed to alte r the st andard expos ure se tting set b y the c amera. Y ou ca n make th e imag e look lighter (in crease d exposu re) or d arker (de crease d exposu re). Y ou ca n set the e xposur e compen sation u p to ±2 st ops in 1 /3-stop incremen ts.
93 By changing the s hutter speed or aper ture automatically , the camera brackets the exposure up to ±2 stops in 1/3-stop increments for three successive shots. This is called Auto Exposure Bracketing (AEB ). 1 Select [AEB]. T urn the < 5 > dia l t o select [ z AEB ], then press < 0 >.
3 Auto Exposure Bracketing (AEB) N 94 Follow steps 1 and 2 to set the AEB amount to < >. It will also be canceled if you set the < 4 > switch to < 2 >, change the lens, attain flash ready , replace the battery , o r replace the CF card.
95 AE lock ena bles you to lock the exposure at a different place from the point of focus. After l ocking the exposu re, you can recompose the shot while maintaining t he desired exposure setting. This is called AE lock. It is effective for backlit subjects.
96 When bul b is set, the shutter stays open whi le you hold down the sh utter button ful ly , a nd closes when you let go of the sh utter button. Thi s is calle d bulb expo sure. Us e bulb expo sures for night sce nes, firewor ks, the heavens , and other s ubjects requi ring long ex posures.
97 Mirror lockup is enabled with C.Fn-12 [ Mirror lockup ] set to [ 1: Enable ] (p.158). The m irror can be swung up separately from when the exposure is m ade. This prevents mirror vibrations which may blur the image during close-ups or when a s uper telephoto lens is used.
98 The LCD panel is p rovided with illumination. Each time you press the < U > button, the LCD panel illumination will turn on or off. Use it to read the LCD panel in the dark ( 9 ). The illumination will t urn off automatically after the shot is t aken.
