High Performance AF
With the Rebel series, the focus is on speed,
accuracy, and flexibility! 7-focusing points
(3 points for the GII) cover a wider area.
Each can detect whether the subject is mov-
ing or still, and instantly adjusts autofocus to
match. There are no surprises with off-center
subjects or areas with multiple focusing
points, as all selected points are clearly and
brightly highlighted in the viewfinder.
– One-Shot AF lets you lock in autofocus on
the subject. You can then relax and reframe
if necessary.
– Predictive AI Servo AF mode lets you shoot
moving subjects with confidence, knowing
you can count on sharp focus. When a sub-
ject’s movement is detected, the cameras
track it and calculate the correct exposure
with a high degree of precision.
– Advanced AI Focus AF system enable them
to automatically switch from One-Shot AF
to AI Servo AF when they detect a subject
in motion (in Creative Image mode.
– The T2 lets you select AF modes inde-
pendently. A four-position keypad on the
back of the camera also makes autofocus
point selection more intuitive and faster.
Creative Controls
◆ Want to recompose a picture after fixing
focus. Or want to determine exposure sep-
arately from focus. AE Lock is the answer.
By pressing the AE Lock button, the expo-
sure is precisely set and stored in memory.
This lets you achieve superb exposure con-
trol even in difficult lighting situations.
◆ Multiple Exposure Control lets you place
up to 9 images in a single frame to create
special effect images, capture progressive
motion, or produce surrealistic creative
compositions.
◆ Auto Exposure Bracketing automatically
shoots three consecutive exposures —one
underexposed, one overexposed and one
correct—in a customizable range of 0 to
±2 stops in 1/2-stop increments.
◆ The T2 features custom functions allow-
ing you to tailor the camera to your pref-
erence. These include adjustable self-
timer (2- or 10-seconds), emit built-in AF
assist beam (on/off), shutter speed cur-
tain with built-in flash and external
Speedlites and flash sync in AV mode.
Shooting Modes
The Command Dial makes selecting any exposure mode fast and effortless. You can
use the dial to set either Creative Image Control Modes or Programmed Image
Control Modes. This allows even novice photographers to handle a full range of
shooting situations quickly and confidently.
Portrait: By setting a larger aperture, this
mode keeps the foreground in sharp focus
while artistically blurring the background to
create a dramatic portrait.
Landscape: By stopping down the lens, this
mode produces the precise depth-of-field
that keeps everything in the scene sharp and
crisply focused.
Night Scene: By the reducing the shutter
speed and firing the flash, this mode pro-
duces “after dark” shots with brightly lit
subjects and softly glowing backgrounds.
Close-up: In Close-up, partial metering is
engaged to make the primary subject “pop
out” against the background.
Sports: A faster shutter speed and predic-
tive AI Servo to AF freezes motion to give
you impressive action shots with ease.
Full Auto: Never worry again about missing
a shot. Simply frame the subject and press
the shutter button. The Rebel automatically
meters the scene, sets the right combination
of aperture and shutter speed and even fires
a flash, when needed.
Auto Depth-of-Field AE (A-DEP): This
setting automatically chooses an aperture
and focus point that brings the entire scene
into razor-sharp focus—from foreground
to background. (The T2 also includes a
dedicated depth-of-field preview button
that allows you to see exactly what you have
in focus before you take your shot. )
Intelligent Program AE (P): In this mode,
the camera sets the optimal combination of
aperture and shutter speed based on the
focal length in use. With a turn of the
Main Dial, you can use different speed/
aperture values for greater creative control
while keeping the same exposure level.
Shutter Priority AE: Set the shutter speed
(up to 1/2000 sec. or 1/4000 on the T2) and
the cameras will set the correct aperture.
Startling effects like freezing action or creat-
ing a creative blur are simple to achieve.
Aperture Priority AE: You set the aperture
and they automatically choose the correct
shutter speed.
Manual Control: In this mode you have
complete creative control over both shutter
speed and aperture settings. Any combina-
tion of shutter speed and aperture can be
set. There is also the option of activating or
overriding the Rebel’s exposure metering
systems.
Programmed Image Control Modes
Canon’s Programmed Image Control Modes automatically deliver the optimum aperture,
shutter speed and other functions for typical shooting environments. Designed primarily
for beginners, they optimize results in popular applications such as portraits, landscapes,
close-ups, sports, and night scenes. Simply select the mode from the Command Dial that
fits the scene and Rebel handles the rest.
Creative Image Control Modes
Canon’s Creative Image Control Modes automat
ically deliver the optimum aperture, shutter
speed and other functions when you are ready to be more creative. Simply select the mode
from the Command Dial that fits the scene and Rebel handles the rest.
All three Rebel models have a built-in motor winder for fast, silent continuous film
advance. They differ only in speed: One frame per second (fps) on the Rebel GII, up to
1.5 fps on the Rebel K2, and up to 3 fps on the Rebel T2.
