The EOS Kiss Digital incorporates a Canon-developed 6.3-megapixel large-area (22.7 x 15.1 mm effective size in a 3:2 aspect ratio) high-resolution CMOS sensor and Canon’s exclusive DIGIC Image Processor, which realizes exceeding image-processing speed and precision to fully utilize the performance potential of the sensor. This advanced technology works in concert to realize outstanding image quality and definition, and more natural color reproduction to satisfy the requirements of a broad user base.
The EOS Kiss Digital offers advanced shooting features, including a high-speed 7-point wide area autofocus (AF) with focusing points superimposed in the viewfinder, making accurate framing simple; Continuous Shooting at approximately 2.5 frames per second for a burst of up to four shots; and the ability to record JPEG images in one of six formats or as a 12-bit RAW file. Moreover, when a RAW image is captured the EOS Kiss Digital simultaneously records and stores a JPEG image (Medium/Fine) within the RAW data, enabling users to view or transmit the compressed JPEG image quickly while also retaining maximum image quality for future editing.
Employing high-density mounting technology and a new chassis and outer-casing configuration with fewer parts, the Canon EOS Kiss Digital realizes the smallest and lightest body in the EOS DIGITAL series, measuring just 142 (w) x 99 (h) x 72.4 mm (d) and weighing only 560g. In addition to compact proportions, the camera’s design contributes to outstanding usability, concentrating such operating controls as the mode dial and electronic dial on the right-hand side for one-handed operation of most shooting functions. Moreover, for the first time in the series, the EOS Kiss Digital incorporates a cross-configured control-button layout that works with a simple “tab” style menu layout to enable easy control of shooting, playback and camera settings without having to scroll.
The EOS Kiss Digital is compatible with the PictBridge industry standard for the direct printing of photos from digital cameras. As a result, users can connect the camera directly to any printer enabled for PictBridge, regardless of brand, and output photos (JPEG) without having to use a computer.

The Canon PowerShot G3 succeeds to the PowerShot G2 released in October 2001 and The PowerShot G3 developed as the flagship model in the PowerShot range. In addition to a high-resolution 1/1.8-inch 4-megapixel CCD sensor, the PowerShot G3 combines an increased optical magnification of 4x (equivalent to 35-140 mm in 35 mm format) with a bright f/2.0-3.0 lens, for enhanced imaging performance.
Catering to the needs of advanced amateurs and semi-professionals alike, the PowerShot G3 features an extensive range of high-end photo features. Newly added features include: Active Frame Control, which enables the AF/AE frame to be shifted within the viewfinder to the desired position without having to reposition the shot; Second-Curtain Flash Sync, which fires the flash at the end of the exposure, allowing streaks of light to flow naturally behind the movement of the subject when shooting in Slow Synchro Mode; and an internal ND (neutral density) filter, which decreases the amount of light passing through the lens to enable the use of slower shutter speeds, or wider apertures, in bright conditions to achieve background blur and slow-sync effects.
Moreover, the PowerShot G3 newly features two Custom Modes on its easy-to-use mode dial, enabling users to freely program their favorite settings for instant access when needed, as well as an electronic dial to adjust aperture, shutter speed and exposure compensation, located conveniently on the top of the handgrip.

The EOS 5 is the world's first 35mm SLR camera with Eye Controlled Focus. The camera has five focusing points (||+||). You just look at the desired focusing point to select it and the camera auto focuses at that point. It was a dream feature. A focusing point can also be selected manually.
Other outstanding features include silent operation, 16-zone evaluative metering linked to the five focusing points, 3.5% spot metering at center, center weighted averaging metering, shutter speed-priority AE, aperture-priority AE, Intelligent program AE, depth-of-field AE, Programmed Image Control modes, and metered manual.
If you are looking for an ultra-compact zoom camera that makes serious photography as quick as pressing the shutter button, the IQZoom 928M is for you. Its 28mm wide-angle lens will easily capture expansive landscapes or group shots. And for those detailed close-ups, simply zoom to 90mm telephoto and get beautiful results every time. From your very first roll of film, you're sure to love the IQZoom 928M's wide and wonderful world of picture framing flexibility.
The A-1 was the top-of-the-line A-series camera. (The AE-1 was the first in this series.) It was a sophisticated electronic camera with all-digital control.
Besides the shutter speed-priority AE and aperture-priority AE modes, it featured the first fully automatic program AE mode, preset aperture-priority AE, and Speedlite AE mode.
The viewfinder information was also easy to read with a 7-segment red LED readout. The control settings were displayed at the same time which made it very useful.
Besides Power Winder A, developed at the same time as the AE-1, accessories for the A-1 included the compact Motor Drive MA which attained a maximum shooting speed of 5 fps. This Motor Drive had a convenient vertical-grip shutter button. Also, there was the Speedlite 199A which had bounce flash capability. The A-1's body had a fine black finish.
