You can register up to three Picture Style files downloaded from the Canon Web site or created with Picture Style Editor (Picture Style file creating software)and saved to your computer, as user-defined settings in your camera.

Follow the procedure below to register a Picture Style file in your camera.

1. Save the Picture Style file that you will register in your camera to your PC.

2. Connect your camera and computer using an interface cable.

3. Set the camera's power switch to ⋖ON⋗, and set the mode dial to a Creative Zone mode (such as ⋖P⋗).

6. The [Register Picture Style File] dialog box appears.

. Select a tab from one of [User Def. 1] to [User Def. 3]. (The following example shows the procedure when [User Def. 1] has been selected.)
