TRAVEL Unsurpassed Image Quality and Dependability High-Resolution Capture The EOS 50D incorporates a Canon 15.1 Megapixel APS-C size CMOS sensor that delivers images of superlative quality. Captured images exhibit exceptionally low noise and are unsurpassed in clarity, detail and color purity. Moreover, the high-resolution detail ensures a wide range of possible photographic applications as well as expanding postproduction enlargement and cropping options. 123 Exceptional Image Quality The combination of the Canon 15.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor, the latest DIGIC 4 Image Processor and other advanced technologies, such as 14-bit A/D conversion, ensures the highest-quality image capture. Image detail, color and dynamic range are impeccable. Plus, the EOS 50D maintains its superlative low-noise performance even when shooting at higher ISO settings, enabling the use of faster shutter speeds often needed in action photography. 123 High-Performance SLR Made to Travel The compact, lightweight design of the EOS 50D makes it the ideal DSLR for professionals who need to carry extra camera bodies or shoot in high-activity situations. The EOS 50D body is an especially good match for the ultracompact EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens. This combination is perfect for "grab and go" shooting - light, easy-handling, covering everything from ultra-wide to super-telephoto - enabling you to capture superb images in just about any situation imaginable. Dependable, Durable Camera The top, front and rear covers of the EOS 50D body are made of magnesium alloy, known for its outstanding strength and light weight. The body's basic chassis is constructed of stainless steel for steadfast durability. The 50D also incorporates a high-performance shutter tested and rated to operate reliably over 100,000 cycles. 123 3.0-inch Clear View LCD Monitor A high-performance LCD monitor provides a large, detailed image and informational display. The brilliant 3.0-inch screen features approximately 920,000 dots/VGA with enhanced brightness to ensure easy viewing ability even in bright outdoor conditions. The new high-resolution monitor complements the camera's expanded Live View shooting options, which give you more alternatives to traditional through-the-viewfinder image composition. The Live View Function with Face Detection Live mode, for example, uses contrast AF to detect the human face, assuring proper subject focus even in the most challenging shooting situations. 124 I" f you want a compact lightweight camera with a lot of great features, you can't beat the EOS 50D. With its ability to render beautiful images at high ISO, produce smooth color transitions with its 14-bit color and the ability to hold highlight detail with the Highlight Tone Priority, your images will shine! I also love the fast 6.3 frames per second and buffer that never seems to quit. This camera would be a welcome addition in any camera bag! " Lewis Kemper Explorer of Light 120
