Capture fast-moving subjects effortlessly with the EOS 40D and
EOS 450D. Both cameras feature lightning-fast shutter responses,
dynamic operability and start-up times that let you start shooting
before the camera reaches your eye.
FREEZE THE ACTION
Canon's EX-Series Speedlites combine ultra-rapid refresh
rates and long-distance reach; the perfect addition to
your kit when shooting fast-paced action. The EOS E-TTL II
system takes into account lens focus distance information
for consistent exposures. New on both cameras is the
ability to control all the external Speedlite settings directly
from the cameras' menu systems.
AMONGST THE ACTION
From ultra-wide 'inside-the-action' shots, to Image
Stabilized telephoto work capturing every expression:
access to the full range of EF and EF-S lenses puts you at the
heart of the action every time. As with many other EF and
EF-S lenses, the EF-S 55-50mm f/4-5.6 IS features Canon's
latest 4-stop equivalent Image Stabilizer – allowing shutter
speeds up to 4 times slower without any perceptible
increase in image blur. For added ease of use the IS system
features panning detection, which prevents the lens from
mistakenly correcting intentional movements.
DIGIC III
Powering 4-bit image
processing and instantaneous,
sophisticated image review,
Canon's DIGIC III processor
also drives fast, uninterrupted frame bursts. Shoot at 3.5 fps
with the EOS 450D, or up to 75 frames at 6.5 fps with the
EOS 40D. DIGIC III also accounts for 0. second startup times
and more shots from every battery charge.
FOLLOW THE ACTION
To ensure greater accuracy and speed, both
cameras use 9 point auto focus systems with
cross-type centre points, sensitive in both the
vertical and horizontal directions. For extra
speed and precision, all 9 points on the EOS 40D are cross-type
– locking onto subjects faster than the human eye, even in low
light or low contrast settings. An ultra-sensitive central AF point,
oriented at 45° for improved accuracy, functions with f/.8 and
faster lenses.
