On the Canon Rebel, there is a half-circle shaped button on the right side of the lens mount (viewed from the front of the camera). Please do not remove the included kit lens from the camera unless you intend to attach a different lens immediately. Prime lenses (fixed focal length) are recommended for faster apertures and picture quality, while zoom lenses are recommended for changing shooting settings, or long telephoto applications.

To conserve battery life, the Rebel will go into a sleep mode after a period of disuse.

The Canon Rebel shows charge level in three stages: Battery OK, Battery Low, and Needs to be Charged. Because of this, make sure that the "Sensor Cleaning" logo is no longer on the screen before removing the battery. When the camera is powered off, it takes several seconds to clean the sensor. DO NOT USE ANY CHARGER OTHER THAN THE ONE PROVIDED WITH THE CAMERA. To charge the battery, slide it into the provided charger and then plug the charger into a standard 120 VAC outlet. The battery will only fit in one way, so if it does not seem to be working, the battery is not oriented correctly. The battery will slide into place and lock in. To insert a battery into the Canon rebel, open the battery door found on the bottom of the camera by pulling on the latch and swinging the door open.
