technical features

The camera has 8.2 megapixels - CMOS sensor in APS-C format. The highest resolution produces images with 3,504 × 2,336 pixels. The sensor has a format factor of around 1.6 compared to the 35mm format . The ISO values ​​can be set in 1/3 steps, values ​​from ISO 100 to ISO 3200 and Auto are available. The images can be saved in either JPEG or RAW format with an aspect ratio of 3: 2. The lens connection accepts both EF lenses and the manufacturer's EF-S lenses specially developed for this type of sensor .

The camera has a built-in flash that can be used as a fill flash at close range. It is also used as an auxiliary light for the autofocus by triggering weak flashes in quick succession to measure the distance.

The housing is made of a magnesium alloy . The camera also has a "Print / Share" button.

The camera also has the following features:

  • Spot exposure metering (3.5% of the image section in the center)
  • Selection of the speed of the series recording between five and three images per second.
  • Picture style function.
  • TFT screen with a picture diagonal of 6.35 cm (2.5 ″) (320 × 240 pixels).
  • RGB histograms can be displayed.
  • Internal buffer memory that is used for images not yet saved on CompactFlash , i. That is, more images can be recorded in quick succession than the CompactFlash medium alone would allow. However, since the DIGIC processor writes to the card in parallel after the first image, the speed of the CompactFlash card also has an influence on the maximum image sequence.
  • The "Jump" function in the image display can jump over 100 images or sorted by date.
  • When setting the ISO value, it is also displayed in the viewfinder
  • Up to 9999 images can be saved in directories on the memory card
