Canon EOS 1000D/Rebel XS

The inclusion of Live View Mode in Canon’s EOS 1000D, demonstrates Canon’s commitment to making the transition to digital SLR photography easy. Live View mode allows photographers to preview images in real time on the 2.5″ inch LCD screen, just as they do on their compact digital camera. This ensures that users making their first time digital SLR purchase, can easily embrace the EOS 1000D.

Live View mode also allows the user to discover new angles and perspectives, enhancing their photography skills every step of the way.

For increased familiarity, the EOS 1000D uses a compact SD memory card for image storage, the same format as most compact digital cameras. This also allows users to easily interchange their memory card when seeking more creative control with their digital SLR.

Simple-to-use interface
Ensuring barriers to digital SLR photography are overcome for first time users, the EOS 1000D incorporates an easy-to-use interface, making it simple for users to navigate and explore key functions.

To ensure the user’s photography skills improve quickly, Canon has included easy-to-use functions such as Auto Lighting Optimizer for perfect brightness and contrast.

Compact and lightweight
Introducing Canon’s lightest digital SLR ever, the EOS 1000D body weighs only 450g and is a manageable size that is easy to take anywhere.

It’s playtime
The EOS 1000D is the ideal companion for users looking to explore fun and creative photography. With fast continuous shooting at 3.0 frames per second, basic and manual shooting modes and picture style modes, the EOS 1000D showcases built-in expertise to assist any photographer experimenting with new photographic techniques.
