Quick Control Screen on a Canon Rebel T1i

[sdmcdaniel]

When I turn on the camera the quick control screen comes on.  How do I get the LCD screen to show what I am pointing the camera at?  It may be the Shooting Settings Screen not the quick control screen.

1. Set the power switch to <ON>.

2. Set the lens focus mode switch to <AF>.

3. Set the shooting mode to a Creative Zone mode. (Live View shooting cannot be used in Basic Zone modes.)

4. Press the <  > (Live View shooting) button. The Live View image will appear on the LCD monitor.

5. The AF point <  > will appear. You can press the <Cross Keys> to move the AF point to where you want to focus.

• It cannot go to the edges of the picture.
• To return the AF point to the center, press the <  > button.
