Peripheral Illumination Correction, Highlight Tone Priority and Noise Reduction feature help ensure accurate, nuanced results. Vari-angle LCD Found on the new EOS Rebel T3i and EOS 60D, the brilliant Canon Vari-angle 3.0-inch Clear View LCD wfoirthcla1r8it0y°aFvniedgrtf.liec2xa1ilbriAolittday.jtuiDosenstsiagebnteslednteaownflgsiptlaeonudtafrrdoms the back of the camera, the Vari-angle monitor's 180° rotation means it can be adjusted for low angle or high angle and can even be positioned Landscape - Great for shooting nature scenes and blue skies, this setting enhances the blues and greens typical in landscapes, and enhances saturation, contrast and sharpening. Picture Style Technology With the myriad of features and settings available, even the best photographer might occasionally have doubts as to whether all of the camera settings are optimal for the shot. Canon's ingenious Picture Style feature comes to the rescue, providing a number of user-friendly presets, including standard, neutral and landscape, giving the ability to fine-tune the images the camera produces. They enable the Monochrome - This setting emulates the color filters of silver halide film for bold black and white images and allows for red, green and other types of filter work. Portrait - The perfect setting for photographing people, the portrait setting adds warmer skin tones with a slight boost in contrast and in-camera sharpening. 12 photographer to make optimal choices based simply on the type of shooting. These presets can be used in much the same way one would use different types of film, and more can be created using Canon's included Picture Style Editor Software. Individual camera settings-such as sharpening, contrast, color tone, and saturation can be overridden if need be. Shooting Modes Beyond normal shooting modes such as Auto, Aperture priority and Shutter priority, select EOS cameras offer shooting features such as Picture Style technology, which optimizes camera settings for subjects like land- scapes and portraits, even monochromes. For even more creative imaging freedom, Canon developed Basic+. Basic+ makes it easy to ­ create whatever image effects desired. Basic+ has two initial option categories: In "Shoot by ambiance selection," standard white balance and exposure compensation are altered according to the chosen ambi- ence, like vivid, Quick Control screen soft, warm, intense, cool, brighter, darker and monochrome. In "Shoot by lighting or scene type," white bal- ance is adjusted according to selections like daylight, cloudy, shade, tungsten, fluorescent and sunset. These features, complemented by the Canon Auto Lighting Optimizer, Lens Vari-angle LCD adjusttment angle Forward position Low-angle position High-angle position forward directly at the subject (when facing the subject, the displayed image automatically flips, showing a right-side-up mirror image, perfect for self-portraits). Because the monitor opens out sideways, it switches between low and high angle shooting without interfering with the use of auxiliary camera grips or tripods. Advanced RAW + JPEG Recording Best described as "digital negatives," RAW images contain pre-processed image data as captured by the sensor and, with post-processing, they yield the highest image quality possible from a DSLR. While professionals and advanced amateurs will often prefer to shoot in RAW mode, JPEG images take up significantly less storage space and are often more immediately pleasing to the eye. With Canon EOS DSLR cameras, you can capture images in a number of RAW or JPEG modes and sRAW options, depending on the camera's sensor, as well as record numerous EOS SLR CAMERAS combinations of RAW and JPEG images simultaneously. And models like the EOS 60D can process RAW files in-camera, delivering JPEGs based on the shot's original parameters, or with changes as specified by the photographer. This makes it easy to experiment with the Canon Creative Filters, simulating grainy black and white photography, soft focus, toy cameras, even a Miniature Effect, with no effect on the original RAW file. Maximum Durability and Performance Hold a Canon EOS SLR in your hands. The look and feel of quality and reliability are the result of decades of camera-making experience and these translate to real-world performance and durability second to none. The newest EOS-1D class professional SLR cameras, for example, feature bodies made of coated cast magnesium alloy, which, while light in weight, deliver outstanding strength, rigidity and electromagnetic shielding. Furthermore, the body is extensively gasketed and sealed, making the cameras exceptionally water- and dust-resistant. These are truly cameras built to take on the some of the world's harshest shooting conditions. Weatherproof - Select EOS cameras feature dust- and weather-resistant bodies. EOS 7D with BG-E7 shown. EOS Integrated Cleaning System Canon has designed an Integrated Cleaning System with a Self Cleaning Sensor Unit customized to the specifications and performance characteristics of each EOS digital SLR camera that helps combat stray dust that can enter the camera when changing a lens or when out in the field. The front surface of the sensor's IR-cut/Low-pass filter cleans itself automatically with ultrasonic vibrations every time the camera is turned on or off. Removed dust adheres to material around the filter to help it stay off. With DPP, dust missed by the cleaning unit can be captured by Canon's Dust Delete Data Detection and can be erased from the image file. Wireless Transmitter Technology As quickly as the digital SLR has become ­ commonplace in the hands of professional photographers and enthusiasts alike, so too has wireless communication between the SLR and external components. The EOS series has a number of dedicated Wireless File Transmitters that keep the camera connected to the wireless world, simply, with tremendous speed. Whether connected through a port on the side of the camera, or incorporated into a camera-integrated design - some units serve as an auxiliary hand grip - Canon Wireless Transmitters can connect securely to Local Area Networks (LAN) wirelessly (with a range up to approximately 500 feet) or directly, and can connect and upload to FTP (File Transfer Protocol) or dedicated WFT Servers. The WFT-E5A (EOS 7D), WFT-E2 II A (EOS-1D Mark IV, EOS-1Ds Mark III and EOS-1D Mark III) and WFT-E4 II A (EOS 5D Mark II) feature IEEE802.11a/b/g compatibility (Type-A/B/G), WPS compatibility, WFT Server Remote Live View, a camera linking function and Bluetooth connectivity. Additionally, the WFT-E5A also includes a media server function. With select models, in WFT Server mode, up to three separate computers can access the camera's memory card using a standard web browser from anywhere in the world (Microsoft Internet Explorer ®, Apple Safari®, etc.). Images can be selected from the browser window and dragged onto a computer's desktop or to a folder, which copies the full file to a computer. Remote firing of the camera over the Internet is also possible. With the EOS 7D, a dedicated media server can also be created with DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) compliant devices, allowing numerous points of access to images instantaneously. EOS Utility Mode, or PTP (Point to Point) connectivity allows the photographer to connect a single camera to a computer for advanced two-way communication and professional tethered camera operation. WFT units can also connect to select GPS units, via the USB Host function, and have GPS information, altitude and time code added to each image's shooting data. External hard drives can be attached for direct recording or backup. Plus, select WFT models can be used as remote control receivers, allowing for wireless shooting and control, from a range of Wi-Fi enabled handheld devices including smartphones. - Wireless and Wireless LAN Functions - - Functions When Connected via USB - External Media FTP Transfer EOS Utility WFT Server Media Server Linked Shooting Record or backup images onto external media GPS Transfer images to an FTP server Use EOS Utility to capture, view, and download images remotely Use a web browser to capture, view, and download images remotely View images on a DLNA-compatible TV or other devices Wirelessly trigger shooting by slave cameras linked to a master camera Connected by a USB cable Connected via Bluetooth Add the latitude, longitude, altitude, date and time, and other shooting information to images 13
