Custom Functions
Variety is the spice of life. And even the
same individual’s preference can change
depending on the conditions. This is the
concept photographers desire in a camera.
Ease of operation is an important feature.
However, as long as the camera is used as a
tool, it must respond to the desires of the
photographer. Custom Functions serve to
adapt the EOS-1v and the EOS-3 to your
preference.
—The EOS-3 provides 18 custom functions
that allow fine settings to match the shoot-
ing
conditions or the user’s preference.
—The EOS-1v features 20 custom functions
that enable the input of 63 detailed
selections and settings. On the EOS-1v,
arbitrary setting of Custom Functions can
be performed either on the camera itself,
or on a personal computer with optional
ES-E1 EOS Link Software installed.
Ease of Operation
They deliver high levels of performance
while maintaining the basic form, oper-
ability, and logical dial and switch arrange-
ments of all EOS SLR cameras ever made.
Equipped with the optional PB-E2 Power
Drive Booster, the EOS-3 and EOS-1v
deliver the same operability when held in
the vertical position as in the horizontal
position.
The EOS-1v and EOS-3 both benefit from
Canons commitment to offering unrivaled
performance in all areas of photography.
That means they accept the full range of
EOS system accessories including viewfinder
accessories, such as the focusing screens,
Speedlites, and motor drive accessories.
PC Customization (EOS-1v Only)
Designed exclusively for the EOS-1v, the
optional ES-E1 EOS Link Software enables
advanced customization, and management
of shooting data, through
PC connectivity. Simply
link the EOS-1v to a PC
(with EOS Link installed)
via the supplied connecting cable and you
can achieve various forms of customization, function extension and
data download by following messages on the monitor screen. EOS Link
software is comprised of two software applications:
EOS-1v Remote (Personal Function Customization)
Allows advanced Personal Function customiza-
tion, so the photographer can program the EOS-
1v to reflect their own personal preferences,
shooting purposes and conditions. Over 30
Personal Functions give even greater customized
control over the EOS-1v than Custom Functions
provide. With the optional EOS Link installed,
you can change, extend and limit the functions
of the EOS-1v. To customize your EOS-1v you
need only to follow the menu and messages appearing on your monitor. EOS Link
enables you to configure your EOS-1v like a custom-made camera.
EOS-1v Memory (Exposure Data Management)
Intensive management of exposure
data is readily achieved. Use EOS-1v
Memory for downloading up to 25
different types of shooting data from
the camera such as shutter speed and
aperture, date, time and more with
each frame of film Values are automatically saved in the
camera's memory each time the shutter is released. At the same
time, an arbitrary two-digit number and an auto-incrementing
three-digit ID number are automatically imprinted on the film
leader. This means the film and shooting data can be matched.
The storage capacity of the built-in memory varies depending on the number of
items to be recorded. In general, data can be saved for 50 to 200 rolls of film with 36
exposures, with data for 100 rolls being recorded in the standard setting.
If all shooting data is input to a PC via the EOS Link software it can be managed
intensively for reading and editing. If scanned images are attached as thumbnails to
the shooting data, the arrangement and searching of data can be performed more
quickly and efficiently. This software thus enables users to manage film data effectively.
