and will be in (Fine) quality.
The file size, possible shots, and maximum burst during continuous shooting are based on Canon’s testing standards (3:2 aspect ratio, ISO 100 and Standard Picture Style) using an 8 GB card. These figures will vary by the subject, card brand, aspect ratio, ISO speed, Picture Style, Custom Functions, and other settings.
Figures in parentheses apply to an UHS-I compatible 8 GB card based on Canon’s testing standards.

Even if you use a UHS-I class card, the maximum burst indicator remains the same. However, the maximum burst in parentheses in the above table will be applied during continuous shooting.

+

records a

image and a

image with a single shot. The two images are saved to the card simultaneously. The two images will be saved in the same folder with the same file numbers (file extension .JPG for JPEG and .CR2 for RAW).

images can be viewed or printed even with a computer which does not have the EOS software installed.

NOTE

The frame rate displayed on the movie recording size screen switches depending on whether [

: Video system] is set to [NTSC] or [PAL]. [

] (23.98 fps) can be selected only when [NTSC] is set.

Frame Rate (fps: frames per second)
29.97fps / 59.94fps	For areas where the TV format is NTSC (North America, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, etc.).
25.00fps / 50.00fps	For areas where the TV format is PAL (Europe, Russia, China, Australia, etc.).
23.98fps	Mainly for motion pictures.
Compression Method
Standard	Compresses multiple frames at a time efficiently for recording.
Light (　　)	The movie is recorded at a low bit rate for playback on various devices, resulting in a smaller file size than with [Standard]. Therefore, you can shoot longer than with [Standard].

NOTE

Movie Files Exceeding 4 GB

Even if you shoot a movie exceeding 4 GB, you can keep shooting without interruption.

During movie shooting, approx. 30 sec. before the movie reaches the 4 GB file size, the elapsed shooting time displayed in the movie shooting screen will start blinking. If you keep shooting until the movie file size exceeds 4 GB, a new movie file will be created automatically and the elapsed shooting time or time code will stop blinking.

When you play back the movie, you will have to play each movie file individually. Movie files cannot be played back automatically in consecutive order. After the movie playback ends, select the next movie to be played back.

Movie Shooting Time Limit

The maximum recording time of one movie clip is 29 min. 59 sec. If the movie shooting time reaches 29 min. 59 sec., the movie shooting will stop automatically. You can start shooting a movie again by pressing the [

] button. (A new movie file starts being recorded.)

IMPORTANT

When shooting movies, use a large-capacity SD card rated SD Speed Class 6 " " or higher.
If you use a slow-writing card when shooting movies, the movie may not be recorded properly. Also, if you play back a movie on a card with a slow reading speed, the movie may not play back properly.
If you want to shoot still photos while shooting a movie, you will need an even faster card.
To check the card’s reading/writing speed, refer to the card manufacturer’s Web site.
An increase of the camera’s internal temperature may cause movie shooting to stop before the maximum recording time shown in the table above
If you change the [ : Video system] setting, set the movie recording size again.
