Customizing a Picture Style
You can customize a Picture Style by adjusting individual parameters such as [Sharpness] and [Contrast].
To see the resulting effects, take test shots.

To change Picture Style values, follow the procedures below.

1. Set the camera's power switch to <ON>.



2. Press the <MENU> button to display the menu screen.



3. Press the <> key to select the [ ] tab. Press the <> key to select [Picture Style], then press <>.



4. Press the <> key to select a Picture Style, then press the <INFO.> button.





5. Select a parameter such as [Sharpness], then press <>.



6. Press the <> keys to adjust the parameter as desired, then press <>.



7. Press the <MENU> button to save the adjusted parameters. The Picture Style selection screen will reappear.
Any parameter settings different from the default will be displayed in blue.



Parameter Settings and Effects
Sharpness 0: Less sharp outline +7: Sharp outline
Contrast -4: Low contrast +4: High contrast
Saturation -4: Low saturation +4: High saturation
Color tone -4: Reddish skin tone +4: Yellowish skin tone

NOTE
Monochrome Adjustment
  • If you select [Monochrome] in Picture Style, it is also possible to set the [Filter effect] and [Toning effect] along with [Sharpness] and [Contrast].
  • With a filter effect applied to a monochrome image, you can make white clouds or green trees stand out more.
  • By applying a toning effect, you can create a monochrome image in that color.
For details about [Filter effect] and [Toning effect], see the instruction manual supplied with your camera.


Registering a Picture Style
You can select a base Picture Style such as [Portrait] or [Landscape], adjust its parameters as desired and register it under [User Def. 1], [User Def. 2], or [User Def. 3].
You can create multiple Picture Styles with different settings for parameters such as sharpness and contrast.
You can also adjust the parameters of a Picture Style that has been registered to the camera with EOS Utility.
IMPORTANT
  • If a Picture Style has already been registered under [User Def. *], changing the base Picture Style in step 6 will nullify the parameter settings of the registered Picture Style.
  • If you execute [Clear all camera settings] , all the [User Def. *] settings will revert to their defaults. Picture Styles registered via EOS Utility (provided software) will have only their modified parameters reverted to their default settings.

To register a Picture Style, carry out steps 1 to 3 above, and then follow the procedures below.

4. Press the < > keys to select [User Def. *] (the * stands for 1, 2, or 3), and then press <INFO.>.





5. With [Picture Style] selected, press <>.



6. Press the <> keys to select the base Picture Style, then press <>.
To adjust the parameters of a Picture Style that has been registered to the camera with the provided software, select the Picture Style here.



7. Select a parameter such as [Sharpness], then press <>.



8. Press the <> key to adjust the parameter as desired, then press <>.



9. Press the <MENU> button to register the modified Picture Style. The Picture Style selection screen will then reappear.
  • The base Picture Style will be indicated on the right of [User Def. *].
  • If the settings in a Picture Style registered under [User Def. *] have been modified from the base Picture Style settings, the Picture Style’s name will be displayed in blue.


NOTE
  • To use the adjusted Picture Style, select the registered [User Def. *], then shoot
  • Regarding the procedure to register a Picture Style file to the camera, refer to the EOS Utility Instruction Manual.
