Canon-to-Canon Quality
Starts with the EOS System
While Canon photo printers individually set the highest standards of performance in their respective categories,
they are, in fact, key elements of the Canon Total Workflow System. To ensure the highest quality print from your

the way with a comprehensive range of both
digital and film SLR cameras, more than 60 EF
lenses, numerous Speedlite flashes, and an
unsurpassed array of system accessories.

uses miniature gyro sensors and a high-speed

The Optical Image Stabilizer System in Canon
lenses is optimized for each lens' focal length
and characteristics, thus providing up to 4 stops
of shake correction. The benefits of Canon's

Speedlite Technology
Canon Speedlites are the ideal flash source
for EOS Digital SLR cameras. They are techno-
logically advanced to provide perfect exposure
and illumination with just about any subject,
yet operation is remarkably simple. The E-TTL II
(Evaluative Through-The-Lens) flash exposure
control mode, for example, incorporates
distance information from compatible EF lenses
to eliminate underexposure that can occur with
highly reflective subjects or backgrounds.
Comprehensive System Accessories
The EOS System offers accessories designed
to maximize capabilities and enhance the
shooting experience. Photographers can
choose from battery packs, remote controllers,
and a wireless file transmitter, just to name a
few examples.
