| Comments | It's hardly surprising this camera won the prize for best camera at the EISA (European Imaging and Sound Association) awards. The EOS 1000D is designed for anyone ready to take the next step in creative photography!
The EOS 1000D is the perfect entry point to the world of SLR technology. It comes with a built-in EOS cleaning system and a 10-megapixel CMOS sensor, offering sufficient resolution to produce prints in sizes up to A4. The EOS 1000D also integrates a low-pass filter with a self cleaning unit, which captures and removes the tiniest dust particles every time the camera is switched on.
A DIGIC III image processor allows you to take professional pictures continuously at speeds of up to 3 frames per second, while its on-screen viewing mode enables you to monitor your creations before and after taking them. Among the 1000D's other user-friendly features, you'll find a set of easy-to-use menus, an automatic focus and a comprehensive range of white balance settings, not to mention a number of scene modes so you can add the finishing touches to your shot!
Following in the steps of other Canon EOS models, the 1000D unlocks the doors of your imagination! |
