f you want a com-
pact lightweight

camera with a lot of
great features, you
can’t beat the EOS

50D. With
its ability
to render
beautiful
images at

high ISO, produce
smooth color transitions
with its 14-bit color
and the ability to hold
highlight detail with
the Highlight Tone
Priority, your images
will shine! I also love
the fast 6.3 frames per
second and buffer that
never seems to quit.
This camera would be
a welcome addition in
any camera bag! ”

High-Resolution Capture

The EOS 50D incorporates a Canon 15.1

Megapixel APS-C size CMOS sensor that

delivers images of superlative quality.

Captured images exhibit exceptionally low noise and are

unsurpassed in clarity, detail and color purity. Moreover,

the high-resolution detail ensures a wide range of possible

photographic applications as well as expanding post-

production enlargement and cropping options.

Exceptional Image Quality

The combination of the Canon 15.1 Megapixel CMOS sen-

sor, the latest DIGIC 4 Image Processor and other advanced

technologies, such as 14-bit A/D conversion, ensures the

highest-quality image capture. Image detail, color and

dynamic range are impeccable. Plus, the EOS 50D main-

tains its superlative low-noise performance even when

shooting at higher ISO settings, enabling the use of faster

shutter speeds often needed in action photography.

High-Performance SLR Made to Travel

The compact, lightweight design of the EOS 50D makes it

the ideal DSLR for professionals who need to carry extra

camera bodies or shoot in high-activity situations. The

EOS 50D body is an especially good match for the ultra-

compact EF-S 18–200mm f/3.5–5.6 IS lens. This combi-

nation is perfect for “grab and go” shooting — light,

easy-handling, covering everything from ultra-wide to

super-telephoto — enabling you to capture superb

images in just about any situation imaginable.

Dependable, Durable
Camera

The top, front and rear

covers of the EOS 50D

body are made of magne-

sium alloy, known for its outstanding strength and light

weight. The body’s basic chassis is constructed of stain-

less steel for steadfast durability. The 50D also incorpo-

rates a high-performance shutter tested and rated to

operate reliably over 100,000 cycles.

3.0-inch Clear View LCD Monitor

A high-performance LCD monitor provides a large, detailed

image and informational display. The brilliant 3.0-inch

screen features approximately 920,000 dots/VGA with

enhanced brightness

to ensure easy viewing

ability even in bright

outdoor conditions.

The new high-resolu-

tion monitor comple-

ments the camera’s

expanded Live View shooting options, which give you

more alternatives to traditional through-the-viewfinder

image composition. The Live View Function with Face

Detection Live mode, for example, uses contrast AF to

detect the human face, assuring proper subject focus even

in the most challenging shooting situations.
