Set your creativity free with Quick AF Live View freestyle shooting
Quick AF Live Vi ew sets your creativity free by deli vering on the full promise of S LR-class live view shootin g. Unlike previous systems that req uired a tradeo in autofocusin g per­formance, there's n o compromise with the 350 's Quick AF Live View. Instead, you g et full SLR fu nctionality and ima ge quality, plus the abil ity to shoot easily and comfo rtably from angles a nd positions you never could before. So you ca n take advantage of more spur-of-the -moment photo opportu nities, and capture more of thos e magic moments that SLR photogra phy is all about.
High-position shooting ease
The 350' s variable-angle C lear Photo LCD monitor makes it e asy to maximize the shoot­ing freedom oered by Q uick AF Live View. For high- position shots, the mo nitor can be angled downward, e nabling you to frame your subject acc urately even with the camera held at arm's le ngth above you. As a result, you can take well-co mposed photos at sport s events, concert s, and other public venue s even when you need to shoot over th e heads of a crowd.

Low-position shooting comfort
Low-positio n shooting is also eas ier and more comfortabl e with Quick AF Live View. The Clear Photo LCD can be a ngled upward, making it pos sible to frame your subject co r­rectly even when takin g waist-level, knee-level , or ground- level shots. As a result, you can re­main face to face with you r subjects and talk to them to put them at e ase, and assume a more comfortable p osture when taking macro close- ups of owers or eye-level portrai ts of pets and child ren.
