Canon EOS 1100D
DSLR Camera
What are the camera functions?
Digital SLR Camera Controls on the Front
All those controls! What are they? If you’re
working with your first digital SLR camera, all
those controls might seem like a mystery to
you. Let this diagram help you familiarize
yourself with the controls on the front of your
dSLR camera.
This is not a Canon Camera, but the functions are similar
Digital SLR Camera Controls on the Back
Because you can do so many different things with a dSLR camera, the learning curve is a
bit steep. You’re a more serious photographer, though, so those options are probably the
reason you bought a digital SLR in the first place — even if you might find all those
controls daunting at first. This list will help you get your dSLR controls under control:
Autofocus lock: Lock the focus zone at its current setting so that you don’t accidentally
switch to another focus zone while shooting.
Cursor movement pad: A four-way cursor control pad that you can use to navigate
menus and move indicators (such as focus zones) in your viewfinder.
Delete Photo: Press to delete the current photo.
Information: Change the status information display.
Jump: Advance to the next group of photos during review or to the next menu screen.
LCD screen: Use this screen to review your photos after you take them and to view menu
options.
Main command dial: Spin this dial to adjust the main settings, such as exposure value
(EV) or shutter speed.
Memory card access lamp: This lamp, usually green or red, illuminates when the camera
is writing to the memory card.
Memory card door: The cover over the SD or CompactFlash slot.
Menu: Press to navigate your camera’s setup, picture-taking, and playback menu options

Advanced, compact and affordable: your
first steps into the world of DSLR
photography, made simple with Canon
EOS 1100D.
The new Canon EOS 1100D entry level DSLR offers EOS imaging power in an affordable, easy-
to-use package. With a 12.2 Megapixel CMOS sensor and technology inherited from Canon’s
professional models, it ensures crisp, sharp images even in low-light conditions. The Canon
EOS 1100D combines exceptional still shooting with the ability to shoot HD (720p) video. To
satisfy your creativity it features full manual control and selectable frame rates. The Canon
EOS 1100D allows continuous shooting of large JPEG images at speeds of up to 3 frames per
second, while the wide-area Auto Focus system uses 9 separate focusing points to track your
subject. Canon’s built-in dust prevention system guards images against dust

Homework:
• Highlight any of the functions that you do not
understand and research what they do in
more detail. Create a bank of terms and
definitions for the ones you struggle to
understand or are unfamiliar to you.
