I thought you could do that anyway. How are you meant to clean the sensor if you just use Canon's formware then?

It also mentions ISO 3200, which might be handy.
Mirror lockup is a function that locks the raises the mirror up on one push of the shutter, then the shutter fires on the second push, which you should make a few seconds after the first so any vibrations have died down. It's useful for reducing any camera shake caused by those vibrations when the camera's mounted on a tripod.

ISO 3200 is handy, as long as you have some noise reducing software as most images taken at that speed are almost unusable.
