Canon EOS 500D Digital Camera

and provides the widest opportunities for pruning.






The camera allows the photographer to work in near-total darkness at the expense of high ISO sensitivity (up to 3,200, expandable to 12,800). The DIGIC 4 processor has a unique ability to suppress noise.



The camera output of the EOS 500Dnew era of phototechnics, allowing to capture the world. The ability to record video clips in HD 1080P format also highlights it from other models. For longer video, you can use a lower resolution (720P or VGA). The built-in HDMI connector allows easy viewing of pictures and video clips using any TV that supports HDTV format.



Reveals all the details



The 3-inch Clear View LCD allowsto view and evaluate images. The same type of screen with a resolution of 920,000 pixels is used in the popular EOS 5D Mark II model, which provides extremely detailed evaluation, accurate focus and easy access to the EOS camera menu.



Live View mode allows you to take pictures withinconvenient camera angles, there is also a face detection function for correcting the autofocus. Ideally easy to use for beginners in digital SLR photography, this camera makes autofocus with the transfer of images to the LCD in real time.



Quick processing and focusing

The DIGIC 4 processor provides high speedshooting up to 3.4 frames per second, with up to 170 pictures in JPEG format. 1. A wide-area AF system with 9 f / 2.8 sensors with a central crosshair makes it possible to capture images in fractions of a second.



The DIGIC 4 processor, working together withCMOS sensor, provides excellent quality of noise reduction, and 14-bit processing contributes to the production of natural images with a natural color rendition. Among other advantages of DIGIC 4 - a short on-time and almost constant viewing of images after shooting, which is extremely convenient for the photographer.



Excellent quality of EOS

Despite the lightweight compact body, the EOS cameraThe 500D has all the hallmarks of the EOS system. All the details of the EOS 500D - from the large, bright viewfinder to the intuitive menu of the EOS system - are designed to provide the photographer with world-class comfort.



Image quality is provided by an integrateda system for cleaning the image matrix of the EOS mirror camera, which eliminates dust on the sensor. Particularly sticky particles can be removed during processing using the Dust Delete Data function, which is easy to apply to the image: Canon provides the availability of Digital Photo Professional software.



Digital Photo SoftwareProfessional contains a complete package of tools for editing images in RAW format, such as quick scan, crop, stamping, plus the ability to change the brightness, white balance and Picture Styles. The software includes the EOS Utility and the Picture Style editor, which provides unsurpassed flexibility.



Compatible with all Canon EF lenses andEF-S and Canon EX-series Speedlites, including the new EOS 500D, whose flash zoom and head positioning functions, plus the ability to quickly recharge with only 2 AA batteries, allows you to create a unique photographic system for each photographer.
