Canon EOS 1100D
Featuring many technologies developed for more advanced models, and functions which make it even easier to capture fantastic images straight out of the box, the Canon EOS 1100D helps you to have fun with your photography and impress your friends with amazing portraits, landscapes or creative shots. Compact and lightweight, the Canon 1100D is a highly versatile DSLR that’s easy to carry with you, allowing you to capture any moment in stunning quality.
You’ll be able to take great images as soon as you start using the Canon EOS 1100D digital SLR camera. A Feature Guide in the menu system offers a brief description of each key Canon 1100D setting and its effect, helping beginners to learn about their camera as they use it. Basic+ and Creative Auto remove any confusing technical terms, using plain language to describe settings and their effect on the final image.
Apply a different ambience to a scene, with Basic+ adjusting exposure, white balance and image processing settings according to easy-to-understand pre-sets based on the creative intent or lighting type. Alternatively, make your image lighter, darker or blur the background to create more interesting results with Creative Auto, which takes all the confusion out of achieving the desired effect.
Thanks to support for Eye-Fi Connected Functions, the Canon EOS 1100D camera users can wirelessly transfer their images to a home PC or bypass this stage completely and upload images and video direct to an online sharing account like the Canon iMAGE Gateway or Flickr – inspiring everyone to share special, fun and creative photography.
The Canon EOS 1100D DSLR camera also makes it easier to shoot and instantly share your images and HD video with friends and family. The large 6.8cm (2.7”) LCD screen features a sharp 230k-dot resolution and wide viewing angle, making it easy to review the day’s shoot immediately. Alternatively, sit back and enjoy the big-screen image playback by connecting the Canon EOS 1100D directly to an HDTV via HDMI, using the TV remote control to scroll through images and enjoy your own high-quality video.
Designed as a user-friendly, powerful, entry-level DSLR, the Canon EOS 1100D features an impressive specification to support the image quality and performance promised by the Canon and EOS brands. A 12.2 Megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor enables A3 size images to be recorded or cropped for exciting compositions, without compromising on image quality or print size, while DIGIC 4 image processing allows you to freeze the action with high-speed shooting at 3 frames per second.
The Canon EOS 1100D will be available with a new addition to Canon’s range of EF lenses. The EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II is a new kit lens that offers EOS 1100D users the flexibility to shoot everything from sweeping landscapes to portraits. A lightweight construction means it’s easy to carry, and Canon’s acclaimed optical Image Stabilization offers a 4-stop advantage to ensure sharp images at maximum zoom and when shooting in low light. The new Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II will succeed the Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS in Canon’s current lens portfolio.
