A new series of Dandelions for digital and film cameras Canon EOS.
Since the autumn of 2008 an updated Dandelion is being produced. The case is made of specially hard plastic, for better slip. And the contact areas are covered with a solid layer of gold.
The new series received an important function - the programming function. Those. you can independently change the "stitched" in the Dandelion value of the aperture and focal length. And also the most important adjustment function, which allows you to cope with the problems of accuracy of confirmation of focus.
The new Dandelion does not use the MF mode, as it was before. Now the focus logic works in AF (autofocus) mode. First, it increases the accuracy of focusing. Secondly, it allows you to adjust the Dandelion to different instances of lenses. Third - the audio confirmation now works on all cameras. For example, on a film EOS 3000N. The sensitivity of the focus sensors in this mode is an order of magnitude higher.
There was also one more feature - "hard" locking of the descent to the confirmation signal. If you hold the shutter button all the way down, the picture will be taken instantly at the exact focus signal. This allows you to shoot dynamic stories.
And of course the main advantage of the new series is the ability to change the parameters of the Dandelion independently, without removing it from the camera.
