ISAPS TECHNOLOGY
Even before the shutter release is pressed, Canon’s
unique iSAPS (Intelligent Scene Analysis based on
Photographic Space) evaluates your composition and
compares it against a vast in-camera database of different
images and settings, dramatically improving the camera’s
ability to interpret shooting situations and deliver brilliant
images without delay.
FLEXIZONE AF/AE
The FlexiZone AF/AE function lets
you freely scroll the auto focus area
around the scene to select the
subject you want to focus on. Your
exposure is then automatically
weighted for your selection.
