The Canon EOS 450D camera is small, light and designed for comfort. It presents powerful Canon technology with a combination of 12.2-megapixel CMOS sensor and DIGIC III processor with intuitive controls, 18-55mm lens and bright 3-inch LCD monitor with 230,000 pixels and Live View Function. This model is compatible with SD and SDHC memory cards and two are provided with camera.
The instant startup, speedy Auto Focus and minimal shutter lag, has continuous shooting up to 3.5 frames per second in bursts of up to 53 large JPEGs or 6 14 bit RAW files. It offers a choice of shooting modes; basic modes control all the settings for you and include; Full Auto, Portrait, Landscape, Close-up Sports and Night Portrait. You can also prevent the built-in flash from popping up using the Flash Off setting. As you become more confident you can experiment with five Creative Modes; Av, Tv, Program, Manual and A-DEP. All allow you to change your ISO speed to modify the exposure accordingly with more freedom to be creative with your shots in different lighting conditions.
The camera's wide-area Auto Focus (AF) system uses nine separate focusing points to lock onto subjects fast. As well as Manual Focus there are three auto-focus modes to choose from: One-Shot AF, AI Servo, and AI Focus. The center, cross-type focus point operates flawlessly in lower-light and lower-contrast settings.
