I am tring to reset my camera to factory settings. When researching this, I do not have the five tabs with the clear settings that everyone says to do. Can someone help. I only have four tabs and no clear settings. Thanks

Assuming that you do have an "XT" (not to be confused with an XTi) then here's the manual for your camera:

See page 35 which explains how to reset all settings as well as just reset any "custom functions" (custom functions are described starting on page 145).

Hi dwhipp!

Welcome to the Canon Forums! The Forums aren't intended for immediate assistance. If your question is of an urgent nature, please feel free to CONTACT US either by phone during business hours or email 24 hours a day!

That being said, your camera needs to be in "P" on the top dial to access the menu you are looking for.

We hope that helps!

On both the 300D and the 350D, settings 2 should have the CLEAR settings option. Also, the users manual for the 300D shows only four tabs as you've described while the 350D has five tabs. In either case the Settings 2 option has the clear option.

edit: Stephen just posted ahead of me. Try his suggestion...
