| Features |
- The
EOS 550D makes Canon’s powerful imaging technology more accessible to
consumers. Canon’s advanced DIGIC 4 image processor and 18MP sensor
support standard ISO settings of 100 – 6400 (expandable to 12800), while
enhanced in-camera noise reduction technology boosts performance in low
light conditions.
- As the ability to record Full HD video
becomes increasingly important, Canon continues to deliver DSLR
technology that sets the industry benchmark for multimedia
functionality. The EOS 550D records video in full 1920x1080p HD
resolution, allowing photographers to select the frame rate preferred
from 30, 25 and 24fps, as well as offering 720p video at 60 and 50fps.
- Photographers
can also take manual control over exposure settings, changing the depth
of field and degree of motion blur to shoot more creatively. To provide
the best possible video quality, highlight tone priority (HTP) can be
set independently for movie capture, without changing any still image
capture settings.
- The EOS 550D also allows photographers to
view their images and video in unhindered clarity. A 7.7cm (3.0”) 3:2
Clear View LCD screen with 1,040k dot resolution makes it possible to
see 100% of captured images with no borders.
- As consumers
would expect from an EOS DSLR, the EOS 550D is built to a high quality
specification. It features bigger, more intuitive buttons which have
been redesigned following feedback from users. Based on this feedback,
the EOS 550D also features an additional button on the new, battery
grip, allowing aperture settings to be changed when shooting with the
camera in a vertical position, without having to reorient the body.
