EOS 6D Warning Icon on Viewfinder Screen

[Rizzo]

I have a Canon 6D. I noticed that on the bottom left of the viewfinder screen there is a warning icon ("!") next to a battery icon. Am I correct in assuming that this is simply a reminder to keep an eye on the battery charge periodically?

Thank you so much.

Rizzo,

The exclamation point warning icon  (!) can appear for a number of reasons.They could include:

• If monochrome is set
• If the White Balance Correction is set
• If Multi-shot noise reduction is set

Check your manual and see what it says about warning icons.

As Steve says it could mean a number of different things. It is selected in the one of the red Shooting menus (or can be disabled).
