I can see something called "Exp Sim" in the bottom right corner of my 1100D. It flashes sometimes and is displayed continuously when I click a photo. What is this?

"Expo Sim" (Exposure Simulation) shows what your picture would look like with your chosen settings. For example, put the camera in full manual mode, start Live View, start turning dials and you'll see changes in the look.

SOURCE: Flahing box on my Rebel T3i display that reads [exp.sim] It won't let me take pictures??? What to do?

Dear BuzzWhitey,

I assume that you're stressed out after witnessing this problem. However, I recommend that you don't worry much about it.

I can explain it in further detail. But, it would be best to refer to your manual. This isn't a problem. It's merely fixing the settings which will allow you to use this wonderful camera.

Please refer to Page number 126 in the handbook. All the best.

Happy Snapping,

Rebel K

SOURCE: my son dropped my Canon

Definately fixable! The e18 error is just a lens error from when it was dropped. The site that specializes in the repairs on the Canon Powershots is: www.camerasandparts.com They have a service package where you get the repair and all the service for the camera for very little, they really have a great deal for repairs on these and they do excellent work. Hopefully that will help, all the best with it.

How do I make a YouTube channel

1. Launch any web browser on your computer that's connected to the internet and visit www.youtube.com.
2. From the YouTube homepage, click on the "Sign In" link that's displayed near the top-right corner of the screen.

3. When the YouTube "Sign In" screen appears (with the Google logo in the upper-left corner), click on the "Create an Account" button that's displayed in the upper-right corner. You'll be prompted to first create a new Google account.
4. At the "Create a New Google Account" screen, fill in the fields. You'll be asked to enter your first and last name. Then you'll be instructed to choose a unique Google username. Next, create and confirm a password for the account, enter your birthday and gender, as well as your mobile phone number and current email address. If you're creating a YouTube channel for your business or service, for example, don't use a personal email address when prompted for your current email address. Select your location from the pull-down menu, and then agree to the "Terms of Service" that are listed on the screen. Click the "Next Step" button to continue.
The Google username you select will also become your YouTube channel name, and a free Gmail address will be issued to the account. Use your business name as your username or choose something that's clever and that your intended audience will identify with. The channel name/username should be easy to spell and something that people will remember. If your YouTube channel will be promoting a product, for example, consider using the name of the product (assuming it is not copyrighted or trademarked by someone other than you or your business) as your username.
5. Next, you'll need to create your Google Account Profile. This includes uploading an optional profile photo. Click on the "Add Profile Photo" button to do this, then click on the "Next Step" button to continue. If you're creating an account for your business or organization, upload a company logo or product photo, as opposed to a personal photo or headshot.
6. Once you establish your Google account, click on the "Back to YouTube" button.
7. Within a few minutes, you'll receive two emails from Google. One will ask you to verify your current email address. Simply click on the link provided within the email to do this. The second email you receive will contain details about your new Gmail account. Save the information within this email for later reference.
Transform Your Google Account into a YouTube Channel
Using your Google account (which also serves as your YouTube account for watching videos), you can easily establish and customize your own YouTube channel, and then populate it with your own videos. Follow these steps to create a free YouTube channel once you have a valid Google account set up.
1. Access www.youtube.com, and sign in using your Google account username and password. The main YouTube home screen will be displayed.
2. Near the upper-right corner of the screen, you'll see your account profile picture. Click on it to reveal the Google Account Menu, which will also be displayed near the top-right corner of the screen.
3. Click on the "My Channel" link in the upper-right portion of the screen. The "Create Your YouTube channel" screen will be displayed. From this initial screen, you'll see your profile photo, as well as your username and/or first and last name displayed. Click on the "Edit" link that's associated with the "From Your Google Profile" option in order to customize your Google profile, which will be your identity containing public information about you that people will see online.
4. Under the "Activities you'll share on your channel" heading, you'll see four options, labeled "Like a video," "Comment on a video," "Favorite a video," and "Subscribe to a channel." Add a checkmark to the checkbox that's associated with each activity you want people who visit your YouTube channel's page to be able to do.
5. Click on the "OK, I'm Ready to Continue" button. Your YouTube Channel has now been created. The next step is to start populating your channel by uploading videos to it.

What does exp.sim mean?

In Live View mode, evaluative metering is always used to determine correct exposure, though exposure compensation is available. The Exposure Simulation function will attempt to recreate the exposure level that would be obtained with your current settings on the LCD display. This may raise noise levels of the live view feed beyond what could be expected in the final image, since it must operate with a fast enough shutter speed to achieve its required refresh rate. The aperture also remains open by default, and so the exposure simulation doesn't indicate the areas in focus unless you configure the Set button to provide depth-of-field preview, and then hold it down during live view. Exposure Simulation will attempt to continue even with depth of field preview active, though this may raise the live view noise levels even further. If you pass outside the range where the live view feed can simulate your exposure, the "Exp. Sim" icon near the bottom right of the LCD will blink, as a warning.
