AF system. Making it even easier for EOS 1100D
users to capture truly artistic shots, Basic+ and
Creative Auto modes use plain language to
describe settings and their effect on an image.
Users can also apply different atmospheres to
a scene based on the creative intent or lighting
type or, alternatively, make images lighter,
darker or blur the background to create more
interesting results. The EOS 1100D also offers
720p HD video capture. Compatible with EF and
EF-S lenses.

EOS 1D X 2012-
• £5299.00 (BODY ONLY)
The EOS-1D X offers a comprehensively-
upgraded specification packed with new
technologies. A newly-developed full-frame
18.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor offers exceptional
flexibility, allowing photographers to shoot
a wider range of scenes and subjects in high
resolution. Redesigned architecture offers an ISO
range of 100-51200, expandable up to 204800,
while dual ‘DIGIC 5+’ processors offer a 2-stop
improvement in noise performance. The new
61-point wide-area autofocus system offers even
greater sensitivity, delivering increased precision
and speed. A 100,000 pixel RGB metering sensor
is linked to the AF system and powered by its
own dedicated DIGIC 4 processor, detecting
faces and colour to ensure correct exposure
levels and improved AF tracking.
EOS magazine, Oct-Dec 2011, page 20
EOS 5D Mark III 2012-
• £2999.99 (BODY ONLY)
The EOS 5D Mark III incorporates a number of
the features launched with Canon’s revolutionary
EOS-1D X. A newly-developed 22.3MP full-frame
sensor provides increased resolution and finer
detail. Higher speed continuous shooting
offers expanded creative possibilities. With
an increased 8-channel read out, the camera
comfortably handles a maximum full resolution
speed of up to 6fps in bursts of 18 RAW images
or over 16,000 JPEGs. The sensor’s advanced
architecture offers a huge native ISO range of
100-25,600, expandable to 102,400, making it
possible to capture pictures in extreme low-light
conditions. The EOS 5D Mark III utilises the same
61-point wide-area AF system as the flagship
EOS-1D X. It features an impressive 41 cross-type
points and five dual cross-type points.
EOS magazine, Apr-Jun 2012, page 20
EOS 60Da 2010-
• £1174.99 (BODY ONLY)
Based on the
specifications of
the EOS 60D and
succeeding the
EOS 20Da, the EOS
60Da is ideal for
shooting astronomical
phenomena such as
diffuse nebulae – a
favourite among
astrophotographers
due to the distinct
red colour caused
by the ionisation
of hydrogen. In a
standard DSLR, an
infrared (IR) filter
limits the amount of
Há light that passes
through to the camera
sensor, reducing the
transmission of red
signals to prevent
unwanted colour
artefacts in the final
image. However the
EOS 60Da features a
new modified filter
that offers three times
more transparency
for Há light than the
EOS 60D, combined
with an 18 megapixel
CMOS sensor, DIGIC 4
processing and a high
ISO range to capture
crisp, clear images of
red-coloured emission
nebulae. Available
from specialist
stockists from June
2012.
