CAMERA FEATURES

Which Canon cameras have which features?

Looking for a camera with focus bracketing? Want to know which Canon cameras have Animal Eye Detection AF or built-in Wi-Fi? Use this handy guide to which Canon cameras have the most searched-for features.
Назад към всички статии

Camera and lens technologies never stop advancing, and today's cameras have features that photographers could only have dreamed of a few years ago. These include innovations such as autofocus systems built on deep-learning artificial intelligence (AI), enabling cameras to recognise and track subjects with new levels of accuracy, or the intuitive Eye Control AF system in the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网3, which can set or move the AF point by detecting what you're looking at in the viewfinder.

When you're choosing a camera, your decision is likely to be based on the combination of features, handling and performance you want, rather than any single feature. To help you narrow your search, we'll explore which Canon cameras have certain features you may be looking for.

APS-C sensors are smaller than full-frame sensors, which is one reason why cameras with APS-C sensors, such as the Canon 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网7 and 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网10, are lighter than their full-frame stablemates.

Because full-frame sensors are larger than APS-C sensors, you get a wider field of view on a full-frame camera than on an APS-C camera with the same lens (indicated by the white frame). However, this "crop factor" of an APS-C sensor makes smaller and more distant subjects appear larger in the frame, giving your lens longer reach, which is beneficial for wildlife and sports photography.

A full-frame camera is one with a sensor that has approximately the same dimensions as a 35mm film frame (24 x 36mm). Canon makes both DSLR and mirrorless cameras, as well as Cinema EOS professional video cameras, with a full-frame sensor.

One advantage of a full-frame sensor is that it captures the full field of view of a standard 35mm lens, while a smaller APS-C sensor introduces a "crop factor" of approximately 1.6x, so that a 100mm lens, for example, will have the narrower field of view of a 160mm lens. This in turn means your subject will fill more of the frame on an APS-C camera, giving you greater reach with the same lens and focal length.

A second advantage of a full-frame sensor comes from its greater size. If the sensors have the same number of megapixels, the photo receptors on a full-frame sensor are larger than those on an APS-C sensor. As a result, they capture more light, meaning that images have greater dynamic range and more detail, particularly if you're shooting in low-light conditions. At higher ISO settings, this means less image noise.

Characteristically, full-frame cameras also offer shallower depth of field than cameras with smaller sensors, which is great for separating a portrait subject from the background – but conversely, an APS-C sensor may make it easier to achieve front-to-back sharpness in a landscape shot.

Filmmaker Ivan D'Antonio used the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5 on a landscape shoot in the mountainous Abruzzo region of Italy, and found that its ability to record in 8K practically saved the shoot. "The weather was very bad in the mountains, so I had to shoot quickly during the brief periods of good light," he says. "There wasn't enough time to change lenses, but I cut some close-ups from the 8K master during the edit. The ability to shoot one take and then make camera movements in post is priceless."

Being able to record 8K video with the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5 and 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5 C gives videographers incredible flexibility when producing VR footage using the breakthrough Canon RF 5.2mm F2.8L DUAL FISHEYE lens. The two offset circular fisheye images are recorded together in 8K, which results in full 4K 180-degree VR footage recorded in a single output file.

Canon introduced 8K video recording with the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5 in mid-2020. In early 2022, this was joined by the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5 C, which has many features in common with the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5. As well as allowing incredible levels of detail to be recorded, shooting in 8K gives greater flexibility for post-capture cropping and creative reframing, as well as downsampling to the required output resolution.

The in-body Image Stabilisation (IBIS) system in selected 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网 System cameras works in tandem with optical IS in the lens to deliver unprecedented levels of stabilisation. The lens microprocessor receives data from the gyro sensor in the lens, while the DIGIC processor in the camera receives data from a gyro sensor and an acceleration sensor in the camera. The two processors share information in real time in order to adjust both the lens elements and the camera sensor to produce a super-steady image.

Much as the IS system in a Canon lens uses special movable lens elements, the in-body image stabilisation tech in the Canon 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5 has the imaging sensor "floating" magnetically so that it can move to compensate for camera movement.

Canon pioneered lens-based image stabilisation, but the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5 and 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网6 were the first Canon cameras to include sensor-shifting in-body image stabilisation (IBIS), which also features in the newer 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网3 and 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网7. This technology compensates for motion in five axes and can deliver up to 8-stops of compensation, depending on the lens being used. With some lenses with a large image circle, such as the RF 28-70mm F2L USM and RF 85mm F1.2L USM, the system can deliver up to 8-stops of IS even though the lenses do not have built-in optical stabilisation. When you use a lens with optical IS, the two IS systems work in tandem, giving enhanced performance against a wider range of vibrations than one system alone would correct.

This level of stabilisation enables you to achieve sharp images at much slower shutter speeds without having to mount the camera on a tripod, and handheld video footage will look much steadier.

The term IBIS conventionally refers to a particular sensor-shifting image stabilisation technology. Several cameras have different IS technologies built-in. The 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网10, 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网P, 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网, EOS 6D Mark II and EOS 90D, for example, incorporate Movie Digital IS to reduce visible camera shake in video footage. Professional camcorders including the EOS C500 Mark II, EOS C300 Mark III, 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5 C and EOS C70 have advanced 5-axis Electronic IS, which achieves extremely smooth and stable video performance when the user is walking or panning.

Animal Eye Detection AF uses deep-learning artificial intelligence (AI) which has been trained to recognise dogs, cats and birds of a range of sizes and from a wide variety of angles, enabling the AF system to detect and focus on their eyes when they are in the frame. It operates in both still photo and video modes for easy and highly effective subject tracking.

Animal Eye Detection AF was introduced with the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5 and 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网6 in mid-2020. It is one of a range of advanced autofocus features designed to assist photographers to get sharp shots of moving or elusive subjects such as human athletes in action, racing cars in motion, or birds in flight. On cameras that have this option, you can set Subject to detect to Animals and then enable Eye Detection. With these settings, the AF will look for animals (dogs, cats or birds) in the frame and prioritise these as the main subjects to track, locking on to their eyes if these can be detected.

Without Animal Eye Detection, the photographer would have to select an appropriate-size AF point and then try to keep it over the animal's eye while taking photographs. With Animal Eye Detection AF, however, the camera looks for eyes in the frame and focuses on them automatically, making it much easier to get the most important part of the subject sharp, especially with tricky subjects like birds in flight.

When you're shooting from extremely close to a subject, only a very narrow slice of it will be in sharp focus. One way to get more of the subject in focus is to take a series of shots, each with a different slice of the subject in sharp focus, and stack them into a single image. On cameras that have it, focus bracketing automates shooting a series of images at different focal distances.

Up to 999 images can be shot automatically using focus bracketing, and the shift in focus can be adjusted across a 10-step scale from narrow to wide. It's also possible to suppress changes in image brightness by engaging the exposure smoothing feature. For the first time in EOS cameras, the Canon 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网7 and 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网10 introduce in-camera stacking and cropping of depth-composite images during focus bracketing.

Focus bracketing sets the camera to shoot a series of images in quick succession with the focus distance automatically changing by small increments between each shot. These images can then be combined post-capture, using features such as Depth Compositing in Canon's free Digital Photo Professional (DPP) software, to create a single image with greater depth of field – in other words, more of the shot in focus – than would normally be possible. It's especially useful with macro subjects because depth of field is severely limited when the subject is very close, but it can also be helpful in landscape photography.

Focus bracketing was introduced in the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网P in early 2019 and is included in all 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网 System cameras released since (with the exception of the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5 C, because of its primary focus on high production video before still photography). It's also available on the EOS 90D in Live View mode and on some PowerShot models.

The 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网7 and 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网10 introduce the further option of in-camera depth compositing and cropping of depth-composite images, enabling you to check the results immediately.

Don't confuse focus bracketing with focus stacking. The two are related, but the latter is another term for depth compositing – combining multiple images with different parts of the subject in focus – and these images could be taken manually. DPP's Depth Compositing feature supports stacking of a set of images shot at different focal distances on the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网, for example, which does not have a focus bracketing function. Focus bracketing is a camera feature that automates the shooting process.

Professional filmmakers – like Kevin Clerc, filming here with the Canon 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5 C on a unique travel shoot in Madeira – rely on HDMI output for enhanced monitoring and control as well as recording. But even if you're livestreaming or shooting a home movie on a DSLR or mirrorless camera, a clean HDMI output is important to create a polished final video, without any extra details over the image.

A clean HMDI output means that the video feed from a camera to an external recorder or livestream doesn't show any of the information that you see in the viewfinder. That's important because you don't want things like the audio levels and exposure details to be visible in the final video.

All of Canon's current high-end enthusiast and professional-level cameras with HDMI ports are capable of outputting clean video to an external recorder via their HDMI connection. All Canon Cinema EOS cine cameras and Canon professional camcorders can do the same – simply toggle Output Onscreen Display to Off using the menu or DISP button where applicable.

Sometimes professional photographers have to shoot in wet conditions, like macro and wildlife specialist Oliver Wright, on location here with an 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网5 and Canon RF 100mm F2.8L Macro IS USM lens. Fortunately, both the camera and lens are weather-resistant, with the lens featuring fluorine coating on the outer element to further protect against dust and water.

Modern cameras, as your camera manual warns, are precision instruments. Complex electronic devices with moving parts, such as dials and removable lenses, can never be made completely waterproof and should never be immersed in water. However, all of Canon's advanced mirrorless and DSLR cameras are designed to be dust- and drip-resistant to some extent. So are selected Canon lenses including the RF 50mm F1.2L USM and RF 24-105mm F4L IS USM.

Professional photographers are more likely to be shooting in a range of challenging conditions, so the higher-spec camera models such as the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网3 and EOS-1D X Mark III have the highest levels of dust- and water-resistance, with seals around every joint, screw and opening.

Different lenses and accessories such as Speedlite flash units also offer different levels of water-resistance. Selected lenses have a rubber gasket that marries up with the rubber gasket on the lens mount, but even on these lenses there might be more vulnerable points at the front or along an extending barrel.

In all cases, you should take every precaution to prevent liquids, dust or any foreign objects from getting into the camera. Don't try to change lenses in a sandstorm! As the manual advises, keep the terminal cover, battery compartment cap, card slot cover and all other covers firmly closed. On cameras with a built-in flash, watch out for a potential leak point where the flash unit closes against the camera body. If you're using a weather-resistant Speedlite with a conventional 5-pin foot on the latest cameras with a multi-function hot shoe such as the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网3 or 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网7, use the Canon Multi-Function Shoe Adapter AD-E1 to maintain the Speedlite's weather sealing. When a Speedlite is not being used, ensure that the supplied hot shoe covers for the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网3, 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网7 and 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网10 are used to maintain weather sealing.

Wi-Fi-equipped Canon compact cameras

Canon 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网 System cameras, selected DSLRs and mirrorless cameras, plus a number of Canon compact cameras all have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technology built in for seamless connectivity with smart devices. They enable the camera to be controlled remotely via the Canon Camera Connect app and images to be transferred to the paired device without a cable connection, then optionally onwards to compatible wireless printers and cloud storage or sharing platforms. On some models you can share directly to your social media accounts, account settings permitting.

Rather than Bluetooth, some models such as the 澳门现金网_申博信用网-官网 have NFC technology to help pair them with a smart device and use the Wi-Fi connectivity for remote control and image sharing.

In Canon's Cinema EOS line of pro cine cameras, the EOS C200 and EOS C100 Mark II have built-in Wi-Fi for FTP file transfer and browser-based remote control. So do Canon's XF Series pro camcorders.

A fully-articulated rotating or Vari-Angle screen is major bonus when you're shooting at an angle or from above or below head-height, because the screen adjusts laterally as well as vertically, meaning you can twist the display into position to give a clear view from almost any angle. Unlike a tilting or flip screen, which adjusts only in one plane, this is of use when the camera is in portrait orientation as well as landscape orientation and increases your options for creative shooting.
