Harness the power of the EOS system to take spellbinding portraits.
Canon's own-brand technologies give you superior reproduction of
every fine detail, capturing the complexity of skin tones with total
accuracy and offering numerous options for creative customisation.
FINE LIGHTING, GREAT PORTRAITS
Create a sparkle in your subject's eye by extending the catchlight
reflector on your Speedlite 580EX II in the vertical bounce position.
Fit an ST-E Speedlite Transmitter – as shown – and use it to trigger any
compatible Speedlite off-camera for indirect flash. And for more
sophisticated lighting setups, you can control and fire multiple banks
of compatible Speedlites directly from the camera.

CANDID KIDS
Incorporating Contrast Detect AF, Live
View Mode on the EOS 450D allows
compact camera style auto focus. This
is ideal for photographing children, who
can become camera-shy when you bring
a camera to your face.
PERFECT PORTRAIT LENS
With its large .8 aperture, the
specialised medium telephoto
EF 85mm f/.8 USM is the ideal
portraiture lens, offering beautiful
background blur and superb delineation.
At maximum aperture, fine focus
adjustments from the tips of the
eyelashes to the eye itself are possible.
EXTRA POWER
A handy source of extended power,
EOS battery grips accept both Canon
Lithium-ion batteries and standard AA
batteries – ensuring that spare batteries
are always easy to find. For extra comfort
while shooting in portrait orientation,
grips feature specially-placed controls for
all essential functions: a main dial, plus
shutter, AE Lock and AF point selection
buttons.
