1) Take a test shot using the flash. The Test Shooting window automatically opens showing

the photographed image.

2) Set Click White Balance for a suitable location in the displayed image.

3) Take the test shot again using the flash.

The results of step 2 are applied and stored in the camera and then applied to the

test shooting results.

Check the resulting shot in the test window. The image in the Test Shooting window is

updated each time one takes a test shot and is automatically deleted when the Test

Shooting window is closed. However, one can save the image by clicking the Save button.

One can also use this function for shots taken using ambient light.

Another new, Live View Function related feature is Quick Preview. Until now, image

checking for remote shooting using EOS Utility has been achieved by transferring images

to DPP (Digital Photo Professional) or ZoomBrowser EX/ImageBrowser, which launch

automatically. As a result, there has always been a time lag of several seconds between

shooting and image checking. The new Quick Preview function is Canon's response to

user requests for a shortening of this time lag.

In EOS Utility ver.2.2, users can check the

results of remote shooting immediately in a

Quick Preview window that automatically

appears after the shot is taken. The default

window size is 600 x 428 pixels, but one can

adjust the window to any size, including full-

screen. Note that the Quick Preview window

always shows the last shot one took.

One can choose whether to show or hide the

Quick Preview window by clicking the Show/Hide Quick Preview button in the Capture

window. The Quick Preview function can be used by all cameras that are compatible

with EOS Utility ver.2.2, even if Live View Function is not involved.

Shutter

The shutter unit is the same as that of the EOS-1D Mark III,

with a durability of 300,000 cycles. Because of the larger

frame size, flash sync is 1/250 sec. rather than the 1/300

sec. of the EOS-1D Mark III with EOS Speedlites.
