How to Set Image Review Time on Canon 60D DSLR

Customizing the image review time on the Canon 60D DSLR helps to make the most of the digital photography experience. http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/properly-image-playback-feature-digital-camera/ Too much time to review an image interrupts the flow of the shoot and may result in missing an ideal photo opportunity. Too little time to review a shot can have the same outcome when the photographer has to interrupt shooting to manually review the image.

Follow these steps to set the image review time on a Cannon 60D DSLR.

Step 1:

To set the image review time on a Canon 60D DSLR, press the Menu button. Using the main control dial scroll over to the still camera settings sub menu. This menu is represented by a camera icon with one dot. Use the quick control dial to scroll down to Image review. Select the image review time using the set button.

Step 2:

To select an image review time, use quick control dial to select a duration: either "2 seconds", "4 seconds" or "8 seconds". "Off" will not provide a review after a photo is taken. To hold the still photo on the Canon 60D DSLR display scroll to "Hold" and select with the set button. "Hold" will hold the still as long as the photographer desires. Scroll to the desired image review time and select using the set button.

Notes:

A histogram is also displayed to the right of the image review. Follow the previous steps to increase or decrease image review time before shooting video.
