Battery for canon Rebel xti eos 400D

where do I find the battery that runs the date and time?

Hi gorja55,
Thank you for the post. The date/time battery is inside the battery compartment of the camera. If you remove the battery that powers the camera, along the front edge of the battery compartment you should see a slide out battery holder tray that has "CR2016 3V" written on it. If you slide the tray out, you can replace the CR2016 lithium battery that holds the date/time settings in the camera.
If this is a time sensitive-matter, additional support options are available at Contact Us.

Canon Rebel Xti/400D Will not download Photos

I have a canon Rebel XTi/400D . Up until recently I had no Problem downloading photos from the camera onto the MacBook. I recently downloaded an update OS 10.8.3 and can no longer download the photos .

Here is why my Canon camera died. There was a loose piece I could hear rattling around inside the camera body so I disassembled the body in order to open the body and see what fell out. When I opened the bottom of the body a small silver screw fell out of the body. Apparently this happens to be a problem with this model and maybe others. A screw from the motherboard backs itself out and rolls around inside the camera body shorting out the DC/DC power board and blowing the fuse labeled "P" on the power board. When I placed a meter across this fuse it reads infinity instead of a normal dead short.
How does a screw located inside of a camera body unscrew itself. This is not a software issue or a failed electronics issue and this camera would still be working rihgt now if the screw had not backed out and shorted out my camera. Canon's answer is of course that they no longer service this camera.
It sounds as though you have two options:
1) Admit that it's time for an upgrade and take advantage of Canon's "Loyalty Program" to get a new camera at a good price. The XTi was a pretty decent camera in its day (my wife and I each had one), but more recent Rebels are far better. My wife's current camera, a T2i, is a major improvement, and there have been several new models since.
2) Since you're obviously not a newbie, try to do the repair yourself. Look around for an XTi that still turns on, but has a cracked sensor, worn-out shutter, or other fatal flaw (such a camera should be available for a pittance), and re-use its power board. You have nothing to lose but a few hours of your time.

Windows 7 64 bit canon rebel xti compatibility issue

I am having trouble to get my canon rebel xti (400D) to work under windows 7 64 bit. You see the canon camera icon in the devices and printers window with a yellow triangle indicating it's not working properly. Did anyone have the same issue and even got an answer to it?
Thanks.

I believe I have a solution for you and any other XTi owners who don't have the "Print/PTP" option in their menu. I was able to get my XTi to function with Windows 7 64-bit last night. Here is what I did:
1) Installed the default Canon utilities disk that came with the camera (which installed without an issue, but wouldn't recognize the camera).
2) I downloaded the updated EOS Utility version 2.6.1 for Windows Vista x64 from here:http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&tabact=DownloadDetailTabAct&fcategoryid=314&modelid=14256
3) I installed the default Canon utilities disk that came with the camera (which installed and opened without an issue, but wouldn't recognize the camera to download pictures).
4) I executed the 2.6.1 EOS Utility update that I downloaded and received the following error: "Installation program of EOS Utility requires administrator priveleges" even though it was being run as an administrator. Any compatibility options that I selected on the installation resulted in the same error.
5) When you receive the error mentioned in the prior step, DON'T click the "OK" button. First, navigate to the follwing path: "C:\Users\admin-user\AppData\Local\Temp\". Inside this directory, you should see a directory named something like "CanonUPW_000". Copy this whole directory to another location, then click "OK" on the installation program error on the screen (which removes the directory you just copied).
6) Open the directory that you copied in the last step and navigate to the following location: ".\CanonUPW_000\INST\INSTALL\COMMON". You should find an "Install.exe" file in this directory.
7) Open the properties of this "Install.exe" file, then select the "Compatibility" tab.
8) Select the "Change settings for all users" button and select the "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and select "Windows XP (Service Pack 3).
9) Under the "Privilege Level" section, select the "Run this program as an administrator", then click OK twice.
10) Execute the "Install.exe" file. The installation should start and finish succeffully.
11) The EOS Utility should successfully open after you execute it (following the installation).
12) The only thing that doesn't work exactly the same as with using EOS Utility with XP. When you plug your camera in, the program doesn't automatically open. After opening the EOS Utility, you can connect the camera and download pictures, or utilize the software's remote control function.
I hope this works as well for you as it did for me.

Canon Rebel XTI question

After using a digital point and shoot for the last 5+ years, I have finally entered the DSLR world. I just purchased a Canon Rebel XTI last week. I haven't attempted to upload any pictures to iPhoto yet. Do I need to install any of Canon's software before I upload the pictures or will it work automatically?

jsanders6,
My wife has a Canon XTi (and Macbook) and there was no need to download the Canon software.
I have a Canon D20 (and Macbook Pro) and it too loads directly into iPhoto with no difficulty.
Apple has a listing of "compatible" digital cameras,but even some cameras not listed may load without difficulty.
I would not load the Canon software,especially if you plan on using iPhoto to manage your library of photos.
Good luck,
Scott

Problem Importing photos from Canon Rebel XTi -- Iphoto '08

When I plug in USB cord to camera and MacBook, then turn on my Canon Rebel XTi, iPhoto opens up but will not read the CF card. The status light on the camera just blinks red as if it working on it but it never does show the photos in iPhoto08 and the camera doesn't show up on the sidebar either although it used to but doesn't anymore.
I know that my CF card is ok because when I use it in my Canon Powershot S400 it works fine, and I'm able to import photos fine.
Help please?

Thanks, I'm fairly certain that WILL work since the card works with iPhoto in my other camera fine.
I don't have a card reader and I'd like to figure out how to fix the problem I have with my Rebel XTi. Any suggestions on that?

I have downloaded pictures to iphoto from my Canon Rebel XTI. I can not email or move any pictures that are vertical. When I double click on the photo to enlarge it the screen fills with an exclamation mark. I need to email these photos out. HELP!

I have downloaded pictures to iphoto from my Canon Rebel XTI. I can not email or move any pictures that are vertical. Also, if I double click on the photo to enlarge it, the screen flills with a big exclamation mark. I need to email these photos out. HELP!

This:

is why you can't do this:

It means that iPhoto can't find the photos.
What version of iPhoto?

Need the right flash unit for Canon Rebel EOS T3i to use as separate fill light.

Im looking to have a separate flash unit for my Rebel T3i purchased in 2012. My old Canon speedlight 300EZ was for my old 35mm. film Canon EOS 650 and is somewhat limited. I have a Phottix Strato II Multi Transmitter and Receiver set but I can't get it to work with the old 300 EZ speedlight.
Thanks,
Zeida Cecilia-Mendez

A Canon 430ex would be a good flash for not a lot of money. So would a Phottix Mitros.
The best thing would be to have 2 or 3 flashes so you can shoot with a more 3-d professional look, though you'd need an extra receiver or else you can simply buy a pair of Phottix Mitros Plus flashes, which have a transmitter and receiver built in. I have 3 of the Mitros + units and I love them.

Downloading raw images from Canon Rebel XTi and problem with Border FX

Aperture no longer downloads raw images from my Canon 400D / Rebel Xti and installed Lexar Professional UDMA card. I am able to download images to my Dell laptop. This is a new phenomenon only occurring since about 10 days ago. I am currently able to download images from my Canon 5D.
Also, my computer has locked up 4 times today when I have been starting Border FX. I have seen a screen saying that I have to restart my computer by holding down the on button. I have the most recent version of the Border FX software.
Any suggestions please?

Join the crowd! I just started to experience exactly the same thing on both of my systems. Apparently the latest raw camera drivers broke something related to Canon Rebel cameras. I'm using the Rebel XT.
I tried a quick experiment the other day. I shot a bunch of test photos forcing the camera to store them as JPEGs. I was able to download those without a problem. I then forced the camera back to raw mode and shot a few more pictures on the same memory card. The JPEGs that I was able to download previously no longer will download and neither will the raw files.
I tried reverting to the older camera raw driver on my notebook but for some reason it won't let me do that. I haven't tried reverting on the desktop yet.
Hopefully this problem is fixed quickly. I've got a ton of pictures from a recent vacation I'd like to off load.
By the way, this affects the iPhoto, Aperture and Image Capture apps.

Camera Raw for Canon Rebel T1i

Hi,
Just bought the Rebel as a backup camera, I shot a few test shots in Raw format. I have Photoshop CS3, 4 and 5. I went to open the image and in each case a message came up stating that photoshop does not reconize this type of image. Now, I have a Canon 5D and I also do retouching work for a friend who has the Canon EOS-1Ds Mark 111 and raw images from these two cameras open just fine. Has Canon changed the raw format for the rebel and if so, what upgrade do I need?
thanks

Canon changes the RAW format with EVERY camera they release.
Yes, you need to update the Adobe Camera RAW plugin.

Which sequence settings for Canon Rebel T2i ?

Hi everyone!
I need immediate help. A friend of mine did a rough cut of a project (in Windows Movie Maker) shot with a Canon Rebel T2i.
He gave me the file (in .wmv), so that I could do a little color correction and sound editing in Adobe Premiere Pro CS 4.
I am not sure which settings I have to choose when creating a new project.
I guess the settings that I chose were wrong, because when I played the video, there was something like a blue flash covering half of the frame every second.
What should I do?
Here is a picture:

Hi there
You should re-post this in the Premiere Pro forum. This forum is for Adobe Captivate discussion.

What's the best Telephoto Zoom lens for canon rebel T3??

Hi, i have a canon rebel t3 and i want a telephoto lens , but i don't know which lens to take between Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III USM and Canon EF-S IS 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS II, I generally like to shoot street, abstract and nature photos and I'm not sure which lens is going to be more suitable to my needs...

Vasanthkumar and Sami:
There are actually 3 lenses that are pretty similar in range and price: the 55-250, the 70-300 and the 75-300. Of the 3, the 75-300 is rated poorest quality.
Here is a tool that lets you compare image quality between 2 lenses. You can even see them at different lengths and at different apertures.
http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/ISO-12233-Sample-Crops.aspx
And here are reviews of all 3 lenses:
http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/Canon-EF-70-300mm-f-4-5.6-IS-USM-Lens-Review.aspx
http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/Canon-EF-75-300mm-f-4-5.6-III-USM-Lens-Review.aspx
http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/Canon-EF-S-55-250mm-f-4-5.6-IS-Lens-Review.aspx
Among the 3, I would choose the 70-300 IS. It has Image Stabilization, and for the price it really has good image quality.
My 2nd choice would be the 55-250 IS. Same reasons as above. I actually owned this lens for a while, and it was indeed capable of taking a sharp picture.
I personally would not go with the 75-300. No IS, for one thing. More importantly, it is not very sharp according to reviews. The small price savings vs. the 2 better lenses would not be worth it to me if all my photos suffered noticably.
To quote the review above on this lens, "If you care about great image quality and sharp photos, the Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III USM Lens is not for you. And Photoshop cannot enhance details that are not there."
Good luck!

Recommendation for correct wide angle lens and flash for real estate photos for Canon Rebel T3i?

Hi I'm new to the forum. I always hire out a professional photog for my real estate photos however have thought that with the amount that I pay them, I could buy my own wide angle lens to do on my own.
Any recommendations for what wide angle lens and flash to buy?
Here are some examples of the work they have done in the past for me:
Any advice would be much appreciated. I enjoy amateur photography with my family and portraits but am hoping to be able to do more of my own work on my listings. Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Your samples look like incredibility simple images to do. I also suspect little artificial light was added. Possibly just a bounce off the ceiling.
Since you already have a Rebel T3i, I would get the Canon 430 EX, and just one. But be aware it will likely not provide equal coverage for a 10-22mm lens. Ten millimeters is pretty wide even on a T3i. Bouncing off the ceiling will help this.
Some ceilings may not be good for bounce either.
Give it a go and you will learn what works and what not. But the old saying, KISS, applies. You will learn!
Photshop and/or Lightroom are great additions. They both have learning curves and PS a very long learning curve.
Still think your photographer is overpaid?

I cannot get my new Computer with Windows8.1 to recognize myCanon Rebel XTi EOS 400 D camera

I noted in a previous post that someone ,I believe from Canon , suggested to go to the menu on camera then to wrench, hammer, 2 setting and make certain changes there that should work to correct problem. My camera does not have the same settings they listed under the wrench, hammer, 2 so i could not try that. I have downloaded the latest software from Canon. Do I need to give up and buy a compact flash reader or is there a fix? It used to be so easy when I had Windows XP. Thanks for any help.

"We still have a couple of XTi's kicking around at home ..."
Bob from Boston,
I had five (5) XTi's. I used thme but not too often as they were the loaners for the 2nd shooters. They have all been given away, now. A couple went to the grandkids that I imagine still have them?
I think I was on the 1D Mk II, or the Mk IIn, when they came out and I remember thinking it has more MP (10 I think?) than my 1 series did.

Tiger & Camera RAW for Canon Rebel XT (350D)

I'm trying to find out WHEN Apple will update either iPhoto or Tiger (presumably the latter) so that it natively reads Camera RAW for the Canon Digital Rebel XT (350D).
I've looked on both Canon's and Apple's site with no luck other than to find what I already know (that it's not yet supported). Has anyone heard rumor as to when support for this format might be forthcoming?
I already have Adobe CS2, so I have RAW support. The reason I want iPhoto to support RAW is so I can use the slideshow and "book" features without having to process my RAW photos into JPEG first (I have enough space on my Powerbook's hard-drive used up by RAW's already - I don't want duplicate files).

Well, I can't make iPhoto support XT RAW, nor can I tell you when it will. I do, however, have a workaround - if you have PhotoShop (may also work in Elements).
Get Dr Brown's Image Processor (free photoshop script) here:
http://www.russellbrown.com/tips_tech.html
This works with CS1 and is apparently built into the latest version of PS.
It gives you complete control over your RAW processing and then batch processes the files to JPEG (and/or TIFF and/or PSD). THe processed jpegs can then be imported into iPhoto. I have been doing it this way since long before iPhoto supported any type of RAW format.
iPhoto is great, and it is nice that they added RAW support. However, if you really want to shoot RAW on a regular basis, iPhoto is not the best choice to process your files. It does a good job, but a tool like PhotoShop (or the program that comes with your camera) provides a much higher level of control - which is supposed to be the point of shooting RAW. If you just want most of the settings to be "automatic" then you may as well shoot jpeg (which is actually a RAW file that the camera processes for you).
After doing that, you can save the RAW "originals" to CD/DVD/etc. to save space. If you really want to protect yourself, convert a set to DNG (Adobe's new digital negative format) and archive those as well. With all the different RAW formats floating around now, you never know what will be supported in the future. (Imagine trying to run iPhoto in "ClassicX mode" on your OS XXX system machine because none of the tools 25 years from now support the "ancient" Rebel XT RAW format!)

When will Raw be updated for Canon Rebel T4i

When will the Adobe Elements plugin for "RAW" be updated for the newest Rebel camera?

What version of Elements? To install the most recent update for Camera Raw in Elements (version 7.3 which has support for the T4i) requires Elements 11. Previous versions of Elements can not use Camera Raw 7.3. So, you'll either need to upgrade to 11 or download and use the free DNG Converter to convert the Canon CR2 files to DNG. Go to the Digital Negative page and look for the downloas of the DNG Converter for Mac and Windows.
