| Superb Imaging Performance | |
 | |
| • | 10.1 megapixel APS-C size CMOS sensor for high resolution images of superb quality and detail |
 | |
| • | On-chip noise reduction circuitry on CMOS sensor for images with low noise even at high ISO settings and long exposures |
| |
| • | 3-layer Optical Low Pass Filter (LPF) effectively minimises false colours and moiré |
| |
| • | DIGIC II Imaging Processor for improved colour reproduction and razor-sharp images at ultra-fast processing speeds |
| |
| ||||
| ||||
| • | New EOS Integrated Cleaning System- Canon's comprehensive measure to minimise effects of dust | |||
| ||||
| • | Includes both Self Cleaning Sensor Unit (hardware) and Dust Delete Function (software) |  | ||
| ||||
| • | Manual Sensor cleaning is also available | |||
| ||||
| • | Self Cleaning Sensor Unit – Uses the piezoelectric element to generate ultrasonic vibrations in the first optical low-pass filter in front of the CMOS sensor to shake off dust | |||
| ||||
| • | Dust Delete Function - Camera detects and registers the location and size of extremely sticky dust adhering to the low-pass filter and then appends this information (dust delete data) to the image taken. The Digital Photo Professional 2.2 (DPP2.2) software detects this data appended to the image to execute dust deletion | |||
| ||||
| High Speed & Quick Response | |
| |
| • | Fast continuous shooting speed of 3 fps |
| |
| • | Maximum shutter speed of up to 1/4000 sec. and X-sync speed of 1/200 sec. |
| |
| • | Fast 0.20 sec. start-up time |
| |
| • | Maximum burst of approx. 27 JPEG Type (Large/Fine) images or approx. 10 RAW Type images |
| |
| Robust Body with Rugged Design | |
| |
| • | Weighing only 510gm, the camera's compact black body has a high-quality coating to prevent scratches |
| |
| • | Thicker rubber slip guard added for improved grip |
| |
| • | Large 2.5-inch LCD monitor (approx. 230,000 pixels resolution) offers wider viewing angle of 160° with visibly clearer images and larger text |
| |
| Picture Style | ||
| ||
| • | Just like selecting the film type for a conventional camera, users can get the optimum image by selecting the correct setting | |
| ||
| • | 6 image composition modes available - Sharpness, contrast, colour tone, saturation can be adjustable: | |
| ||
| 1) | Standard- Vivid and sharp images (general shooting) | |
| ||
| 2) | Portrait- Beautiful skin tones and clear image quality | |
| ||
| 3) | Landscape- Vivid blues and greens, enhanced sharpness | |
| ||
| 4) | Neutral- Natural colour reproduction, low sharpness and moderate expression | |
| ||
| 5) | Faithful- Extremely accurate colour reproduction in daylight | |
| ||
| 6) | Monochrome- Black and white or sepia images | |
| ||
