5D IV seeking for literature

If no other solution found you can always print/bind the (free) PDF version to a photocopy shop.

I´ve downloaded it to my cell phone, trying to read it on this. On the other side, I am in the opinion, Canon could offer it for free for this extraordinary price of the cam. Just on demand for customers who want it. The others will not order it

Printed manuals are a waste of paper. I put the pdf on my phone, that's always with me and that means no additional weight or space (and it's better for the trees, too!). Plus, it's searchable...

But, I´m not oldfashioned, so I downloaded the manual from Canon today and read it on my cell phone.

My settings for bird photography are stored in custom settings C1, C2 and C3, programmed in advance before leaving home for a bird reserve.
