Attaching a lens filter to the camera protects the lens and allows you

to shoot with various effects. To attach a lens filter, you will need Filter

Adapter FA-DC67B, which is included with Lens Hood LH-DC100 (sold

separately).

1

Attach the filter adapter.

z

Make sure the camera is off.

z

Align the notches on the camera and the

filter adapter and turn the adapter in the

direction of the arrow until locked.

z

To remove the filter adapter, turn it in the

opposite direction.

2

Attach a filter.

z

Turn the filter in the direction of the arrow

to attach it to the camera.

z

Make sure not to attach the filter too

tightly. Doing so could prevent removal of

the filter and damage the camera.

●

We recommend the use of genuine Canon filters (67 mm dia.).

●

When not using auto focus to shoot, set the manual focus option
[Safety MF] to [On].

●

If you use the built-in flash with the filter adapter attached,
portions of the image may appear darker.

●

When using the filter adapter, be sure to use only one filter at a
time. Attaching multiple filters, or accessories such as a heavy
lens, may cause the attachments to fall off and become damaged.

●

Do not grip the filter adapter tightly.

●

Remove the filter adapter when not using a filter or a hood.

5

Close the cover.

z

Lower the cover (1) and hold it down as

you slide the switch, until it clicks into the

closed position (2).

6

Connect the power cord.

z

Insert one end of the power cord into the

compact power adapter, and then plug

the other end into a power outlet.

z

Turn the camera on and use it as desired.

z

When finished, turn the camera off and

unplug the power cord from the outlet.

●

Do not disconnect the adapter or unplug the power cord while
the camera is still on. This may erase your shots or damage the
camera.

●

Do not attach the adapter or adapter cord to other objects. Doing
so could result in malfunction or damage to the product.
