Autofocus Technology

The EOS system leads the way in professional AF technology with multi-point AF systems that deliver an ever-increasing combination of accuracy and speed in diverse situations. The EOS-1D X and EOS 5D Mark III are a benchmark in AF technology, with a 61-Point High Density Reticular AF. It has improved tracking, 5 central dual cross-type points (f/2.8 diagonal), 21 central cross-type points (f/5.6 horizontal & vertical)

and 20 outer cross-type points (f/4.0 horizontal), and is remarkably sensitive in low-light situations (EV-2 for a central point with a f/2.8 lens). It remains stable in adverse conditions, with secondary imaging lenses that use temperature and humidity resistant glass molding.

Enhanced Live View Focusing

Continuous subject autofocusing and tracking in Live View shooting has been enhanced with the new Hybrid CMOS AF (found in the EOS Rebel T4i) system. It combines both phase and contrast detection AF while aided by pixels on the camera’s sensor to assist in predicting subject location. New Movie Servo AF provides continuous, optimized focus tracking that is quick and easy in movie recording and enhances focus performance. Also available is FlexiZone-Multi mode that divides the scene into 31 AF zones and uses special algorithms that gives priority to the center and closer subject for focusing. Taking advantage of the EOS Rebel T4i’s touch screen LCD monitor, users can simply touch one of nine zones (center left, center right, center, center top, center bottom, and left and right corners) and select it for automatic focusing. Touch AF allows for a single point to be selected. Face & Tracking Priority AF detects faces and enables the camera to focus and track the

selected face by switching the AF points. After detection, face tracking will continue even if the face turns to the side view. Other parts of the body besides the face can also be selected on the monitor and can be tracked in the same way.

The EOS-1D X incorporates

AF Modes

Canon EOS cameras feature a number of dedicated autofocus modes designed to enhance reliability in specific shooting situations. ONE-SHOT AF mode is ideal for static subjects — the camera rapidly selects the optimum focusing point, and the subject is instantly brought into focus even if it is off-center. AI Servo AF mode is excellent for moving subjects. Aided by a highly intelligent predictive focusing algorithm, it precisely tracks subject movement across the wide AF coverage area, automatically shifting the active focusing point vertically and horizontally as required. AI Focus AF mode, in which the camera automatically decides between ONE-SHOT and AI Servo AF modes based on subject movement, is ideal for shooting unpredictable subjects. The AI Servo AF III, found on the EOS-1D X and EOS 5D Mark III use more advanced algorithms for even better predictive focus tracking performance when shooting subjects with unpredictable movement. Even difficult, highmagnification subjects, such as a flower in a breeze, are captured accurately with a Canon macro lens using these tracking algorithms.

High-Speed Shooting

The AF system found on the EOS-1D X combines fast 16-channel data readout from the camera’s

18.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor, the processing

speed of the Dual with a speedier shutter and mirror system to raise the performance bar for all digital cameras, all while capturing images full-frame. A mirror mechanism provides improved AF precision, speed and stability. The main mirror is equipped with two balancers and one bounce-lock mechanism, and the sub-mirror has two balancers and two bounce-lock mechanisms, thus effectively controlling mirror bounce. This contributes not only to high-speed continuous shooting, but also a stable viewfinder image plus greater AF and AE accuracy.

Enhanced Subject Tracking

Reliable subject identification and tracking features significantly improve a camera’s performance in any number of situations. As seen on the EOS-1D X, EOS iTR AF can use both face detection and color to track a subject. With acceleration and deceleration tracking, the EOS-1D X’s AI Servo AF system can adjust response and react to sudden stops and starts, perfect especially for sports and wildlife photography. Specific parameters can be adjusted and refined and saved in the AF menu for later use.

Diverse AF Shooting Options

On the EOS-1D X and EOS 5D Mark III, there are 6 AF point selection methods: spot, single point, single point and adjacent 4 points, single point and adjacent 8 points, zone selection and full automatic, plus there’s a dedicated AF configuration tool for control of AI Servo AF tracking parameters. And to manage all of the new shooting options, both the EOS-1D X and EOS 5D Mark III have a dedicated AF menu tab, so AF settings are faster and easier to access than ever before.

Image Processors

61-Point High Density Reticular AF

12.0 fps — Proprietary Canon technologies in the EOS-1D X deliver state-of-the-art performance: an astounding continuous shooting speed of 12.0 fps* (RAW+JPEG) up to a maximum of 14.0 fps (JPEG) in Super High Speed Mode at full resolution.

* The maximum continuous shooting speed is restricted to 10 fps when the battery charge is less than 50% or when ISO speed is above 32000.

If the camera’s internal temperature is low and ISO speed is above 20000, the maximum continuous shooting speed is restricted to 10 fps.

EOS Full HD Video Advantage

Select EOS DSLRs feature 1920 x 1080 Full HD video capture and offer the enhanced image quality, smooth frame rates and adaptive exposure compensation necessary in professional movie-making tools. By shooting video with an EOS DSLR, it’s simple to take advantage of the image quality and characteristics intrinsic to DSLRs, resulting in richer, more detailed and more diverse images. The large sensor found in EOS DSLRs means more high quality pixels plus the potential to shoot at higher ISO sensitivities without loss of detail.

Interchangeable EF/EF-S Lenses – Creative opportunities are at your fingertips.

Macro lenses let you

get up close for detailed shots of small subjects.

EOS SLR CAMERAS

Wide-angle lenses are perfect for shooting in tight spaces or to capture large expanses.

EOS Full HD Video

EOS DSLRs increase shooting flexibility for the videographer in that they allow for full use of Canon EF and EF-S lenses, including wide-angle, macro, super-telephoto, tilt-shift and fisheye, providing a wealth of focal lengths, depth-offield and other creative shooting options once reserved for still photography. All Live View AF features can also be used in shooting video, and playback modes are available in-camera, with sound. Combined with their size, image quality and flexibility, EOS DSLRs with Full HD video capture are superlative all-in-one, multimedia image-capturing tools.

Movie Servo AF

For accurate focus tracking during video shooting, Canon developed Movie Servo AF for the EOS Rebel T4i. Movie Servo AF takes advantage of the new Hybrid CMOS AF system. The EOS Rebel T4i locks focus on its subject with great speed and tracks it, throughout the composition, to keep it focused. Movie Servo AF automatically tracks subjects’ distance as their position moves through the frame. When the EOS Rebel T4i is used with one of Canon’s new STM lenses, continuous AF performance is remarkably quieter and smoother.

Movie Servo AF Movie Servo AF allows continuous autofocus tracking of moving subjects while recording video.

Manual Control

For complete creative decision-making on the go, select EOS DSLRs offer flexible manual controls for their movie modes. Not only can one take advantage of the DSLR’s range of ISO sensitivities, it’s simple to control exposure and depth-of-field, all of which can have a profound effect on the mood of a scene. It’s all as easy as the press of a button. By controlling depth-of-field, it’s simple to create gorgeous background blur. Exposure can be determined and set even in complex lighting situations, maintaining the same look and feel throughout an entire scene, not just the initial shot.

Large CMOS Sensor

With amazing Canon CMOS sensors, video is easy to shoot, and looks better than ever before. Large sensors provide a look and perspective impossible to achieve with traditional video cameras, and the quality must be seen to be believed. Large sensors also capture more light, and can record at high ISO sensitivities with less digital grain and reduced image noise. This enables low-light shooting, without loss of detail, in situations previously impossible without artificial light. Although many devices offer HD recording, the quality of video captured by an EOS DSLR and its CMOS sensor is markedly vibrant and truer to life.

Depth-of-field

When shooting a video on an EOS DSLR, it’s simple to control each shot’s depth-of-field, an option previously available only when filming with expensive professional cinema cameras. Thanks to the physical size of EOS DSLR CMOS sensors, combined with the large maximum apertures achieved by Canon lenses, depth-offield, or lack thereof, can be a creative decision

reached solely by the photographer. If a large aperture is chosen, thus creating shallow depthof-field, evocative, dramatic moving images with blurred backgrounds can be attained with ease, something simply not possible with smaller sensors or compact cameras. If everything must be in focus, shooting with a small aperture helps ensure phenomenal depth-of-field, for illustrative landscapes, architecture or anything else where all details must be recorded. The drama, beauty and mood achievable by controlling a movie clip’s depth-of-field cannot be overstated — and an EOS DSLR controls it with ease.

Frame Rates

In select models, EOS Full HD video movies can be captured at 1920 x 1080 resolution, for up to 4GB per clip. Movies are saved as MOV files and can be viewed in Full HD with HDMI output. Other recording sizes include HD at 1280 x 720 (50/60 fps) or SD/VGA at 640 x 480 (50/60 fps). No matter the end-application, the proper resolution and frame rate is easily defined with EOS cameras.

640 x 480 (SD) 60P (59.94), 50P

Movie Crop

The Movie Crop function on the EOS 60D enables zooming at 7x the captured focal length for distant action and extreme close-ups. This feature is perfect when the chosen subject is in a crowd, like a specific athlete, when it’s impossible to get close to the action. Recorded as a VGA movie, Movie Crop shots are perfect for emailing, posting online, or editing into other movie clips.

Telephoto lenses Canon’s amazing telephoto lenses bring the action closer, emphasizing the subject at hand.

Fisheye lenses impart an extraordinary perspective and angle-of-view far beyond the limits of human vision.

Creative Capabilities with EOS Lenses

From fisheye to super-telephoto, the amazing Canon EF and EF-S lenses offer a stunning combination of sharpness, speed, compactness and flexibility — the perfect complement to a user’s creativity. With the ability to create images of great beauty, with controlled depth-of-field, interchangeable lenses bring moviemaking to a whole new level. And the range of focal lengths is simply

staggering. With over 60 lenses available, including USM, the world’s first real fisheye zoom lens that functions as a circular fisheye and fullframe fisheye for a full size CMOS sensor, and as a full-frame fisheye for APS-C/H sizes, there’s an EF or EF-S lens for everyone. No matter the photographer, no matter the situation, Canon’s superlative lenses help ensure quality results.

Video Snapshot

With the Video Snapshot feature, found on cameras like the EOS Rebel T4i and T3i, short video clips (of 2,4 or 8 seconds) can be stitched together, in-camera, into one video file as a “snapshot album”, perfect for sharing online, or displaying to an HDTV directly from the camera. In the EOS Rebel T4i, the Video Snapshot feature makes in-camera editing even simpler: Still images can be recorded during video shooting simply by pressing the camera’s shutter button. During playback, video clips in an album can now be reordered or deleted.

Sound Recording Level Adjustment

To ensure the best possible recording of sound, a number of EOS DSLRs offer a host of user-controlled sound recording adjustments. The manual sound recording level can be adjusted to one of 64 levels, and an optional wind filter can minimize unwanted excess sounds. Whether recording through an external microphone (on certain EOS models) or through the camera’s internal mic, this important feature means more audible voices, less unwanted noise, and better overall sound.

Movie Digital Zoom

Movie Digital Zoom, found on models like the EOS Rebel T3i, make it possible to zoom while shooting motion video from 3x to 10x, adding a whole new level of drama to video clips.

Automatic Splitting of Video Files

The FAT file system’s 4GB size limit cannot be changed, but it no longer has to interrupt video capture. With the EOS-1D X and EOS 5D Mark III, should a video file reach the 4GB limit during shooting, a new file is automatically created, enabling recording to continue without interruption. Sequential files can later be joined in an editor with seamless results.

Advanced Video Recording Options

Shooting HD video with an EOS DSLR, it’s simple to take advantage of the image quality and characteristics intrinsic to DSLRs, as the large sensor found in EOS DSLRs means more high quality pixels, the potential to shoot at higher ISO sensitivities without loss of detail and full use of Canon EF and EF-S lenses with their wealth of focal lengths, depth-of-field and other creative shooting features. Most EOS DSLRs feature 1920 x 1080 Full HD video capture, delivering professional frame rates, adaptive exposure tools and phenomenal image quality. The EOS-1D X and EOS 5D Mark III offer users a choice between All-I and IPB compression and supports High Profile under the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC standard, combining high image quality with high coding efficiency and producing files that are well suited for transmission or broadcast. It automatically splits files greater than 4GB (FAT limitation) without interruption and offers the option of timecoding at all times (Free Run) or only during recording (Rec Run), useful for multi-camera shots. It also features improved sound recording adjustment capabilities, offering 64-step volume control accessible through the quick settings screen during video shooting. The sensor technology in the EOS-1D X and EOS 5D Mark III significantly increases image quality, reducing color artifacts and moiré.

Tilt-shift lenses allow you to control the area of focus.

Highlight Tone Priority

Loss of highlight detail is one of the greatest concerns for photographers shooting digitally in brightly lit and contrasty situations. Canon’s Highlight Tone Priority function calculates the exposure to expand the image’s dynamic range so that more detail is preserved in highlights. This renders a more continuous tone image without blown highlights, and helps to save time in post-processing for highlight retrieval.

Canon CMOS Sensor

Taking advantage of its own proprietary technologies, Canon develops and produces its own CMOS sensors. Unlike CCD sensors, CMOS sensors convert and amplify signals before they are transferred to the image processor, enabling them to produce exceptionally clean image data

APS-C (1.6x)

and reduce power consumption by as much as 90%. Data transfer speeds are increased by using multi-channel signal paths that dramatically improve the camera’s responsiveness. Canon’s CMOS sensors incorporate a unique on-chip noise reduction technology to deal with both fixed pattern and random noise. In addition, a multilayer low-pass filter is placed in front of the sensor to isolate false colors that the sensor may detect. Then, Canon’s own Image Processor processes the image to help eliminate those colors while retaining full detail. CMOS sensors can also be fabricated to full-frame 35mm dimensions, an important consideration for photographers who wish to use their lenses without a conversion factor. Canon’s CMOS sensors deliver outstanding resolution and signal purity, making them ideal for the most critical photo or video applications.

Full-Frame Canon CMOS Sensor

The Canon-manufactured full-frame CMOS sensor delivers professional performance with digital convenience. EOS DSLR cameras with full-frame sensors, found on the

EOS 5D Mark III Full-Frame CMOS Sensor (actual size)

EOS-1D X, EOS 5D Mark III and EOS 5D Mark II, do not require a focal length conversion factor common to other DSLR cameras on the market. Instead, they deliver the same angle-of-view as 35mm film cameras, so the working distance to the subject, with a given lens, is the same as it would be on film. Since you can use EF lenses on either 35mm film cameras or Canon DSLR cameras with the same results, the switch from film to digital is truly seamless. Fullframe sensors provide greater control over depth-of-field, which helps to create beautiful background blur, perfect for portraits. The large sensor area also helps to enable a marked reduction in noise levels at all ISO values. When combined with high resolution and smooth gradation from highlights to shadows, Canon DSLR cameras with full-frame sensors produce images

When using the same lens with different cameras, the angle-of-view varies depending on the sensor size.

51200 (L: 50, H1: 102400, H2: 204800)! The EOS 5D Mark III has an ISO range of ISO 100– 25600 (L: 50, H1: 51200, H2: 102,400). Even at higher ISO settings where one might expect to see a higher degree of noise, the renowned Canon CMOS sensor and noise reduction system work to ensure superb image quality. Accordingly, even the most critical photographers can use EOS DSLR cameras with confidence, no matter the light.

Advanced 14-bit A/D Conversion

EOS DSLR cameras employ 14-bit converters to process the output of the imaging sensor. Compared to the 12-bit converters used in most digital cameras, the Canon design helps ensure smoother tonal transitions, more natural gradations, and superb color fidelity. RAW images are recorded at 14 bits so that processed 16-bit TIFF images contain the full range of tonal values captured by the sensor.

Lens Chromatic Aberration Correction

With the new EOS-1D X and its Dual 5+ Image Processors, the EOS 5D Mark III’s 5+ Image Processor, and the EOS Rebel T4i’s

5 Image Processor, chromatic aberration

in Canon lenses can be corrected at the time of shooting. Select EOS cameras can read the correction data from lenses, and those lenses can be registered to the camera. Both of these cameras can even distinguish between different lenses of the same model by supporting registration of serial numbers (with compatible EF lenses).

Another feature available in Canon’s newest EOS DSLRs is Canon’s Lens Peripheral Illumination Correction feature. Taking into account the lens in use, this feature automatically brightens the light level at the four corners of the composition where light falloff may have occurred. Peripheral illumination characteristics and correction data are detected automatically on a number of Canon lenses and can be entered manually through Canon’s EOS utility software. This function can be applied when shooting to JPEG images, and in post-processing with RAW images.

Auto Lighting Optimizer

The Auto Lighting Optimizer automatically corrects image exposure to help ensure accurate brightness and contrast. It can actually brighten areas of the composition while maintaining highlight details and accurate exposure in others, or darken areas of composition while maintaining brightness and shadow details in others. This remarkable feature is available as both an automatic feature in Full Auto and Creative Auto shooting modes, and can be used and fine-tuned in other modes. The Canon Auto Lighting Optimizer ensures beautifully exposed images that require little to no postproduction work.

exceptionally precise AE (auto exposure) with a wide range of metering options. Full-frame evaluative metering incorporates the camera’s multizone sensor reading with specific focusing point data. The onboard microcomputer compares input from all zones and calculates optimum exposure. While evaluative metering helps to assure excellent results in even the most challenging lighting situations, advanced photographers can choose from among several additional metering options. Center-Weighted metering is available for those who prefer a more traditional pattern. Partial metering limits readings to sensor zones in the center of the image area, giving the photographer more area-specific control. Spot readings can be taken at the center of the frame area or, with

some models, linked to an AF point. With certain EOS cameras, up to eight separate spot meter readings can be recorded and averaged. For cameras like the new EOS 5D Mark III and the EOS 60D, Canon developed the iFCL (intelligent Focus Color Luminance) 63-zone dual-layer metering system to incorporate the color wavelength surrounding the chosen focus point to help ensure more natural color rendition. Flash photography with EOS Systems also benefits from the extraordinary exposure control technology Canon has created.

The camera performs instantaneous calculations based on readings from the preflash, ambient lighting conditions and assessment of subject location to determine the optimum flash output and exposure settings. With E-TTL II, the calculations also incorporate distance information from compatible EF lenses, enabling the system to better handle dark, light and highly reflective subjects. Resulting images can have a virtually perfect balance between ambient light and flash illumination, even in complicated lighting situations and compositions.

Multiple Exposure Control

Cameras like the EOS-1D X and EOS 5D Mark III offer multiple exposure shooting modes for film-like image creation, with the convenience of in-camera processing. In Function Priority mode, 3-4 individual shots are taken, allowing for proper exposure and composition. In Burst Mode, continuous shooting is prioritized, up to 9 shots are captured, perfect for capturing golf or baseball swings.

High Dynamic Range

Perfect for capturing scenes with extreme highlights or shadow, HDR (High Dynamic Range) shooting, a feature found on the EOS 5D Mark III merges three images of varying exposure, in-camera, capturing a broad range of shadow and highlight detail and delivering an image with stunning tonal range. Adjustable to cover a range of ±3 stops, and with five different effect settings (Natural, Art Standard, Vivid, Bold and Embossed), HDR recording expands the parameters of the light and dark detail a camera can actually record, displaying a range of depth and detail previously impossible in image capture.

Intelligent Viewfinder

The Intelligent Viewfinder, found on the EOS-1D X, EOS 5D Mark III and EOS 7D, uses a transparent LCD monitor to superimpose a customizable combination of focus points, gridlines and other shooting information within the viewfinder. Whereas with other EOS cameras’ viewfinders the representation of AF points and metering areas are static, the Intelligent Viewfinder allows the information to be displayed, adjusted, or hidden with ease. This means less distraction and more clarity to view the image in its entirety. The Intelligent Viewfinder includes a Grid Display and in Spot metering mode, the specific area metered is shown.

Canon’s spectacular Live View shooting is now available through most of the EOS digital models. Live View Function, where the photographer can compose and shoot directly from the camera’s LCD monitor is an indispensable feature for creative photography in any number of situations. It enables the photographer to zoom in and navigate the composition 5x or 10x its normal size, while enabling critical focus and allowing more attention to detail. Users can even choose a grid overlay, perfect for architectural photography. In the studio, Live View Function can be used remotely (via a computer) through the camera’s USB connection (via the Gigabit Ethernet port on the EOS-1D X), or wirelessly if the optional Wireless File Transmitter is used.

Live View Focusing

Canon’s Live View Function includes 3 focusing modes: Quick mode, Live mode, and Face Detection Live mode. In Quick mode, One-Shot AF is set automatically and the AF point is selectable even

while the Live View image is displayed. In Live mode, AF can be started by pressing the AE button for either AF mode. In Face Detection Live mode,

the largest face near center is detected initially, but the multi-controller can be used to select any face detected.

Superb Ergonomics

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 DSLR 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.

Ultrasonic Wave Motion Cleaning

Found on the EOS-1D X, Canon’s amazing new integrated cleaning dust removal cleaning uses a carrier wave type selfcleaning sensor unit. While previous dust removal systems removed dust adhered to the surface of the infrared absorbing/ultraviolet-blocking glass in a frontward direction by vibrating the glass with ultrasound, the new system effectively rolls rather than shakes the dust particles off, removing an

even greater amount of dust, especially smaller particles. As with previous cameras, the IR/UV absorbing glass in front of the EOS-1D X’s sensor is treated with an anti-dust fluorine coating making it easier to remove damp or sticky dust particles.

Shooting Modes

Beyond normal shooting modes such as Auto, Aperture priority and Shutter priority, select EOS DSLRs offer shooting features such as Picture Style technology, which optimizes camera settings for subjects like landscapes 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

adjusted according to selections like daylight, cloudy, shade, tungsten, fluorescent and sunset. These features, complemented by the Canon Auto Lighting Optimizer, Lens Peripheral Illumination Correction, Highlight Tone Priority and Noise Reduction feature help ensure accurate, nuanced results.

Scene Intelligent Auto

Scene Intelligent Auto, found on the EOS 5D Mark III, EOS Rebel T4i and Rebel T3i merges a number of very complex measurements into settings that will ensure photographs of gorgeous tonality, accurate color, sharp focus and phenomenal detail.

Use Picture Styles to Easily Achieve the Effect You Want

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.

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 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 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. Select EOS models even feature Picture Style Auto, which automatically determines the best style for a particular scene.

Twilight – Capture the subtle vibrancy of colors illuminated by the soft glow of the receding sun using the twilight setting. (Extended Function, online support only.)

Advanced RAW+JPEG Recording (in-camera processing)

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 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’s EOS DSLR cameras, images can be captured in a number of RAW and JPEG modes, depending on the camera’s sensor, as well as record numerous combinations of RAW, sRAW and JPEG images simultaneously. Several models even offer in-camera post processing. The EOS-1D X and EOS 5D Mark III feature in-camera post processing with image correction options

brought to the front. Operations previously assigned to buttons, controls, menus and custom functions have been consolidated for quick access in the menu, ensuring the photographer can concentrate on shooting images with the knowledge that the camera’s settings are just right. The EOS-1D X, EOS 5D Mark III, EOS Rebel T4i, EOS Rebel T3i and EOS Rebel T3 offer operational help through the press of the Info button, identifying features quickly, instructing on their use and minimizing confusion, even for photographers operating the camera for the first time.
