Title: 1Ds M3 manual
Post by: Nick Rains on April 10, 2008, 04:54:43 pm

Hi

I have a 1DsM3 on loan from Canon but they forgot to include the manual. I know Canons pretty well but two items have me stumped.

1. Can anyone tell me how to access the mirror lock up feature?
2. How do I use the voice recording feature?

(I have a Hassy H3DII on loan too, it has 4 user programmable buttons, one of which is Mirror L/U - come one Canon...)

I think I've worked everything else out but if anyone knows of a downloadable manual then I'd love to get it.

Thanks

Nick,

Best place for the mirror lock-up function is in the custom menu.
(last one)

You can add the things you want or need to get to quickly like color temp, formatting and the like.
It's a great feature.

Thanks Dave.

You're right, that makes it as handy as it's likely to get - I use it a lot as you can imagine!

Cheers
