Manufacturer: Canon USA, Inc.
Manufacturer description
The EOS Digital Rebel incorporates a Canon-developed 6.3-megapixel large-area high-resolution CMOS sensor and Canon's exclusive DIGIC Image Processor, which realizes exceeding image-processing speed and precision to fully utilize the performance potential of the sensor. This advanced technology works in concert to realize outstanding image quality and definition, and more natural color reproduction to satisfy the requirements of a broad user base.
The EOS Digital Rebel offers advanced shooting features, including a high-speed 7-point wide area autofocus (AF) with focusing points superimposed in the viewfinder, making accurate framing simple; Continuous Shooting at approximately 2.5 frames per second for a burst of up to four shots; and the ability to record JPEG images in one of six formats or as a 12-bit RAW file. Moreover, when a RAW image is captured the EOS Digital Rebel simultaneously records and stores a JPEG image (Medium/Fine) within the RAW data, enabling users to view or transmit the compressed JPEG image quickly while also retaining maximum image quality for future editing.
Employing high-density mounting technology and a new chassis and outer-casing configuration with fewer parts, the Canon EOS Digital Rebel realizes the smallest and lightest body in the EOS DIGITAL series. In addition to compact proportions, the camera's design contributes to outstanding usability, concentrating such operating controls as the mode dial and electronic dial on the right-hand side for one-handed operation of most shooting functions.
The EOS Digital Rebel is compatible with the PictBridge industry standard for the direct printing of photos from digital cameras. As a result, users can connect the camera directly to any printer enabled for PictBridge, regardless of brand, and output photos (JPEG) without having to use a computer.
