Instruction to record video in Colour Accent mode in G11

Someone has emailed me in YouTube on how to record video in Colour Accent mode with Canon G11. Since I only have the G11 to do video recording, I will have to demontrate that by photo

1) Set the Mode Dial to Movie mode


2) It will go to whichever recording mode you last used when you power on the camera at this point. Mine is the standard mode


3) Notice that all objects appear in their natural colour in standard mode


4) Turn the function dial to Colour Accent mode, all the objects will appear in black and white except those in the pre-selected accented colour. In my case the pre-selected accented colour is white


5) Notice that there is an eyedropper on the LCD display, next to the DISP text. That means you activate the eyedropper tool by pressing the DISP button below the function dial


6) A white square will appear in the LCD after you activate the eyedropper tool. The eyedropper is a tool to select the colour you want to accent


7) You select the colour to accent by placing the white square to the colour within the LCD image and then press the left side of the function dial. Here I select the colour blue to accent. Notice colour box in the status bar inside the LCD screen has changed from white to blue




8) Exit out of the Eyedropper tool by pressing the DISP button again and now you can record video in B&W except those in colour blue


Hope this help
