Setting used in conjunction with the above "Warning Unit" feature. Set this to how many
megabytes when the space remaining feature turns to your chosen warning color.

Note: This can be used in conjunction with a handy script if you need to ration the amount of
photos you take on a long vacation.

Clock

< OSD parameters < Main Menu

Show Clock

Displays an OSD real-time clock.

Don't - No clock display.
Normal - Displays HH:MM
Seconds - Displays HH:MM:SS

Clock Format

12-hour or 24-hour format toggle. When 12-hour format is
used then the chosen 12-Hour Clock AM/PM indicators are
enabled.
Also influences the temperature format. 12h - Fahrenheit.

12h Clock Indicator

PM - Displays AM or PM suffix on the OSD Clock
P - Shorthand version of A or P for AM and PM on the OSD Clock (to save real-estate space).

Ultra-shorthand version of AM or PM. Displays a simple "." after the time to indicate PM,
no character is displayed for AM. Examples: 10:30 = 10:30 AM, 11:15. = 11:15 PM
(note the small period after the 15).

@ Shutter Half-press Show

Shows the OSD clock during a half-press of the shutter button.....

Don't - No clock display on a half-press.
Full - Shows full clock time during half-press.
Seconds - Only counts off the seconds in the clock display during a half-press. Helpful when

doing manual timings between consecutive shots without having to quickly call up some
intervalometer script.

Show OSD in Review Mode

< OSD parameters < Main Menu

Displays the OSD when in

REVIEW

mode. Do not confuse this with Playback mode. Review

mode is when your last taken photo is temporarily being displayed as you hold down the shutter-
button (and press

FUNC.SET

to lock it into Review Mode) or when you have your Canon's

Menu "Review" options turned on. This allows you to keep your on-screen grid and other
settings visible when reviewing the photo to see if you got the framing or other settings as you
had intended.
