III. FEATURE DISCUSSION 17Camera Direct PrintingPicture StylePicture Style, which Canon is implementing across its fullEOS Digital range, is new to the sub-$1000 category. It canbe selected directly with the SET button, or throughShooting menu 2. For the first 5 choices, Standard, Portrait,Landscape, Neutral and Faithful, the variables are sharpness, contrast, saturation and colortone. Each Style has preset values for these image characteristics that can be changed bythe user in the menu. The process of selecting or refining a Picture Style can be likened todeciding on a film: something a little more saturated and sharper, or perhaps somethingless forward with a subtle palette and a less-scientific representation of skin textures. Thesixth Picture Style is Monochrome, whose variables are Sharpness, Contrast, Filter effectand Toning effect. Last, there are 3 open slots for User Defined styles.Custom FunctionsThe Digital Rebel XTi has 11 Custom Functions with 29 settings to choose from. Four func-tions were added or changed on the XTi relative to the XT: C.Fn 1: SET button functions (0:Picture Style, 1: Quality, 2: Flash exposure compensation adjustment, 3: Flash exp comp,4: Cross keys: AF frame selec.), C.Fn 2: Long exposure noise reduction (Off/Auto/On),C.Fn 10: Magnified view (0: Image playback only, 1: Image review and playback), andC.Fn.11: LCD display when power ON (0: Display, 1: Retain power OFF status).Note that with C.Fn-7-1 (mirror lockup) set, one should not point the camera toward thesun or any bright light source. Doing so can damage the shutter curtains, cause straylight to enter, or damage the imaging sensor.Several useful improvements have been added to the Direct Print feature on the DigitalRebel XTi:• Contact sheet style 35 image index printing• Printing with shooting information• 20 image index printing with shooting information35-image contact sheet Single image print with EXIF information20-image print withEXIF information
