III. NEW AND IMPROVED DESIGN FEATURES 21

35mm f

ormat. Its EF-S design is used to produce a small,

lightw

eight lens that still gives high image quality.

The IS

designation means the lens has an Image

abilizer whose performance is equivalent to

proximately 3 shutter speed increments. The

lacement of its component elements and the

oatings selected are optimized for suppression

of the flare and ghosting prevalent in digital

cameras. The second new lens being introduced

is the EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM. This is the

lens that will return practical wide-angle photogra-

phy to budget-priced D-SLRs. Its small size,

lightweight, reasonable cost and exceptional

performance eliminate one of the few remaining

annoyances with most D-SLRs, the conversion

factor which makes lenses designed for 35mm work longer effectively than their marked

focal lengths. On the EOS 20D, the EF-S 10-22 is the equivalent of a 16-35mm lens on

a full-frame camera, wide enough to satisfy the vast majority of serious amateurs and

working professionals.

The new, optional DVK-E2 Data Verification Kit is a significant advance for the use of

digital photography in forensic and law enforcement applications. The kit consists of a

dedicated Secure Mobile Card DV-E2 (SMC), a new SMC card reader with small USB

adapter, the EOS Data Verification Disk which is Windows 2000/XP compatible and a

manual. The system can verify that EOS 20D, EOS-1D Mark II and EOS-1Ds RAW or JPEG

image files have not been altered.
