## Description

Manufacturer's Description The ideal choice as your first EOS camera The Canon EOS 1100D is the ideal introduction to the EOS system for first-time digital SLR users. An enthusiast’s camera, it will grow with you allowing you to explore your creativity as you gain experience and confidence. Easy-to-use, compact and lightweight it delivers a host of technology, including features found on Canon’s professional models, into the hands of the photography enthusiast. Features include: 2.7” LCD screen for easy viewing and reviewing of shots12 Megapixels capture every scene in dazzling colour and brilliant detailHD movies (720p) with stereo sound, Dynamic IS and HDMIFeature Guide describes each mode and gives onscreen helpNew HD CMOS Pro sensorCreative Auto and Basic+ Modes allow you to manually adjust image settings Feature Guide - a first for EOS cameras To get the best out of any SLR, an understanding of the camera’s features and technologies is essential. With the EOS 1100D’s new Feature Guide, newcomers to the digital SLR world are given a brief explanation of what each feature does and how you might best use it. For example, the Aperture priority AE feature is explained on the camera’s LCD screen saying “Adjust aperture to blur background (subjects stand out) or keep foreground and background in focus”. Once the feature is selected, the camera also provides onscreen help with step-by-step instructions as well as useful hints and tips. Record full High Definition movies with stereo sound High Definition movie-making Boasting HD (720p) movie capability, the EOS 1100D does not just shoot video clips, it offers the enhanced image quality, smooth frame rates and adaptive exposure compensation you would normally find in a professional movie-making tool. In addition to selectable frame rates, the EOS 1100D enables easy manual control of exposure, focus and Live View features and even allows for in-camera editing. The large APS-C CMOS sensor and compatibility with over 60 Canon lenses provides a wealth of depth-of-field options, and it's all available at the press of a dedicated Live View/Movie Recording button. It is easy to view and share your movies and stills too, thanks to an HDMI connection which allows High Definition playback of footage and images on any HDTV. Experiment with Creative Filters for artistic post-production effects like Miniature Mode which transforms normal landscapes into miniature look-alikes. Click here for a larger imageUnlock your creativity With the new EOS 1100D creativity has never been simpler. You can add your own artistic touches and post-production effects with ease, without worrying about detailed settings or additional software. Basic+ allows you to add stunning ambience to a scene after it’s been shot. For example you can inject warmth to a sunset or brighten up your beach shots. Simply select Portrait, Landscape, Close-Up, Sport, or Night Snapshot modes to find the ambience to suit your scene.Further creativity can be achieved using the Creative Auto Mode. This setting allows you to make image adjustments, such as aperture or shutter speed, through an easy-to-understand navigation screen on the camera's LCD menu, allowing you to 'blur backgrounds’ or make exposures 'darker' or 'brighter'. These simple image options allow photographers to experiment with image exposure options while still managing to shoot in an automatic mode. The different modes allow you to control the look and feel of your images Click here for a larger imageGet more hands-on with Creative Modes As you become more confident you can also experiment with five Creative Modes: Av mode automatically sets the shutter speed, but allows you to control depth of field by letting you choose the aperture. By setting the extent to which the lens opens (‘aperture’), you can control the portion of a scene that appears sharp in the image (‘depth of field’). A larger aperture will provide a shallow depth of field (sharp in the foreground with a blurred background) whereas a smaller aperture will give a sharp picture throughout. Tv mode automatically sets the aperture and you select the shutter speed. This enables you to change the appearance of motion in your shots. In Program Mode both the aperture and shutter speed are controlled by the camera but you can select other settings: with Drive Mode you can select from Single Shot, Continuous Shooting or Self-timer; Metering Mode allows you to specify the area of the image you wish the camera to use to calculate exposure. Manual Mode allows you to control both aperture and shutter speed so you have total creative freedom with your shots - great for difficult lighting situations or capturing subjects with different effects. A-DEP Mode automatically sets your depth of field so you can be sure to capture as much or as little of the scene as you wish in focus. All the Creative Modes allow you to change your ISO speed. This is the measure of the sensor’s sensitivity to light. Altering it allows you to modify the exposure accordingly and gives you more freedom to be creative with your shots in different lighting conditions. Effortless operation The EOS 1100D is the smallest and lightest Digital EOS model yet, weighing just 495g, and is ergonomically designed for comfortable handling. A large, bright 2.7” LCD monitor with 230,000 pixels and a viewing angle of 170 degrees makes it easy to preview, review and share your shots even when you are using the camera in bright sunlight. Live View Function Live View Function enables you to view your subjects directly on the LCD monitor. It’s easy to magnify any part of the scene 5x or 10x for precise manual focus. You can even choose a grid overlay, perfect for keeping vertical or horizontal lines straight in your composition. Live View Function can be used remotely via a computer through a USB connection and the included EOS Utility software. The 9-point AF system, 63 zone dual-layer light meter and 3.7fps shooting means you’ll always get the perfect shot. Click here for a larger imageFocusing made easy A wide-area Auto Focus (AF) system uses nine separate focusing points to lock onto subjects fast and makes it easy to get the shot you want. As well as Manual Focus there are three auto-focus modes to choose from: One-Shot AF, ideal for static subjects such as portraits and landscapes, AI Servo, great for moving subjects as it keeps following the subject with predictive tracking until you take the shot and AI Focus which switches from One Shot to Servo when movement is detected. The centre, cross-type focus point operates flawlessly in lower-light and lower-contrast settings. Choose your style The EOS 1100D allows you to change the look of your images by customising Picture Style settings for colour, saturation, sharpness and contrast, either in-camera or later with Canon’s comprehensive software suite, supplied with the EOS 1100D. Six preset Picture Styles include Portrait, which provides a sharp and crisp image with nice skin tones, Landscape, which emphasizes vivid blues and greens and Monochrome to give you stunning black and white images. Canon also offers additional downloadable ‘Picture Style Files’ that can be installed into your camera for even more imaging options at your fingertips. Professional Software The EOS 1100D allows you to shoot in RAW format and the Digital Photo Professional software which comes free in-box, enables high-speed RAW image processing, fast previewing for real-time image adjustment and support for sRGB, Adobe RGB and Wide Gamut RGB colour spaces. Because it is CMS (Colour Management System) compatible, Digital Photo Professional allows for easy image layout and printing in Adobe RGB in conjunction with Easy-PhotoPrint and PictBridge printers.Power in your hands Canon's latest generation of DIGIC processor, the DIGIC 4, is the brain of the camera and is responsible for the superb responsiveness of all EOS models. Faster and more powerful than its predecessor, the DIGIC 4 processor gives exceptional performance and low noise at higher ISO speeds. In the instant between your shot being taken and its appearance on the LCD screen, Canon's cutting-edge DIGIC technology, which was originally developed for Canon's Professional range, is racing to optimise your image. DIGIC processors are able to analyse ultra-detailed image data gathered by the camera sensor then use this to swiftly reproduce the subtlest of tonal graduations in 16 bit and an exceptionally wide colour range. When shooting in darker conditions, even if you are pushing the ISO to the limit, DIGIC processing applies sophisticated Noise Reduction algorithms - helping to eliminate graininess and preserve detail. The speed of DIGIC also means less processing time for long battery life and fast start-up times. With over 60 Canon lenses to choose from you'll never be short of creative options. Click here for a larger imageEF & EF-S Lenses Over 70 years of experience give Canon an inherent advantage when it comes to lens manufacture. EOS digital SLRs are backed up by the world's most comprehensive system of interchangeable lenses. From 8-15mm ultra wide angle to 800mm super telephoto, the 60+ lenses in the EF series cover all possible shooting requirements. Canon lenses employ advanced optical expertise and micron-precision engineering to deliver unprecedented performance in all facets of the photographic process. Special optical technologies, such as aspherical, ultra-low dispersion, or fluorite elements are featured in the universally acclaimed L Series lenses. Canon’s Optical Image Stabiliser technology is also featured in selected lenses to minimise the effect of camera shake. Extend your lighting capabilities Mastering flash photography can take a lifetime but Canon’s extensive range of Speedlites, can make it simple to get great results. These flash head units can be used on or off camera to open up a range of creative possibilities. You can use them in situations where there would otherwise not be enough light or as a fill-in flash to change your daylight pictures dramatically. The Speedlite range is compatible with all EOS cameras and includes a choice of four standard models and two models for specialist macro use.

Review: I wish I'd bought a camera like this years ago - This is a lovely bit of kit. I have a 75-300 lens for it as well as the standard lens. We took the camera on a 6 week holiday and I started off simply using it in the default automatic mode - the results were really impressive with fantastic detail, clear crisp colours, fast focus and so on. The PC application to download photos was very fast and easy to use. The other PC applications work well, but I haven't used them heavily. As time went by I experimented with some of the other automatic modes such as portrait, landscape, sports and so on. Each did its job perfectly and the results were simply stunning. The manual for the camera comes on CDRom and after two weeks I started reading it. I discovered the first "advanced" mode which allows you to chose which of the 9 focus points gets used, allows you to use different scene modes, vary the aperture and shutter speed (as you turn the dial it moves between different combinations that are in balance with each other), adjust the 'film' speed, and various other controls. This is a kinda semi-automatic mode, but with more creative control. Again the results were stunning. There are proper advanced modes but I haven't got to them yet. I know there are cameras with more mega-pixels, but this already takes photos that will print on A3. The resolution is so good that I have been able to take poorly composed photos and trim them so that they are better composed, and despite the resultant image obviously being smaller as I've trimmed quite a chunk off, they still print perfectly - if you think about it you could cut a lot off an A3 print and still get a 4x6 or bigger. I haven't found a single thing about the camera that I don't like. It is so easy to use on automatic that my technophobe wife can pick it up and take a great photo. Its advanced features, and I haven't gone very advanced yet, have allowed me to take some really fantastic photos (I'm really pleased with a low-light shot where flash was forbidden - I simply changed the film speed until I could get a fast enough shutter and the picture was glorious). I struggled for ages before buying this as I kept wondering if spending a couple of hundred pounds more on the bigger brothers would be worth it. I'm now glad I bought this and a decent zoom lens as I've got far more out of it than I would have done buying a bigger brother and not being able to afford the zoom lens.
Review: Great camera - desertcart as usual very slow to despatch but that aside its' a great little camera, good spec and easy to operate once you've read the manual a few times. Disappointed it didn't come with the Image Stabilised lens although you shouldn't need that at these short focal lengths. I also bought a 55-250 IS lens where you sometimes need stabilisation at the longer focal length. I think the 12 Mp quality is un-necessary unless you are blowing up pictures for street size posters, the lowest setting is good enough for PC viewing and 3 Mp good for A4 prints. It's light and well balanced with through the lens viewing - very practical camera which comes with some good software for editing and printing. You can also operate the camera from your PC, not only shooting but changing settings. Canon also have some good support features on its website where you register it. I not only use it for terrestrial photography, I use it with my 8" telescope and spotting scope with the appropriate adapters - it gives excellent results with both and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it in spite of the fact that the price went up by £5 since I ordered mine - it's still good value and probably beats all other prices. The only complaint I have about the kit is that you'd expect to be able to photograph something straight away - you can't - you then have to buy an SD card to store the images.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Q1 - Does it have a long exposure mode?  Q2 - I am looking to capture the northern lights with it, do you think its capable?**

A: You need software through the Chrome apps then you can put the card in the side slot it as the same as you get in Boots

**Q: With this camera can you change the depth of field, aperture and shutter speed? And is it recommended to a beginner with limited camera knowledge?**
A: This is a very good camera for a beginner,it has all the stuff a pro uses but at a good price.It saves you having to change to a more expensive camera as you improve.

**Q: can it be used as a webcam**
A: Sorry do not have a clue. Webcams are cheap to buy anyway.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent camera for great price
*by E***1 on 2 April 2014*

This is my first DSLR camera and after using it for many months I am very happy with it. I spent a long time searching for something within my budget and this was on a deal with the lens. A friend has a much higher end Canon along with many lenses he has let me use which has increased my enjoyment. Being new to the camera world I cannot think of any major issues that a pro would have with regards to camera's but this one suits me just fine. Even though it records video in 720p and not 1080p it still provides fantastic quality recordings. One little niggle for me though is when you have auto focus on it can take a while to focus and sometimes not at all in low lit areas however as far as I am aware this isn't an issue with this particular model, just the nature of photography. But, due to experience I find myself manually focusing more and more, it was mainly at the start it was a point and click job, which again it does in fantastic detail and as always, a computer cannot predict what you yourself want to photograph! When recording video, its manual focus only, auto doesn't work and whilst this isn't a major issue, it can be quite irritating when recording video outside in the sun when trying to look at the LCD and decide whether you are focused properly or not, to then discover back home on the computer that your focus wasn't as sharp as it could have been, but this is just due to the glare from the sun on the LCD. If anyone has any recommendations or tips to reduce this and improve the ability to focus video in the sunlight I would appreciate this. Battery lasts a decent length, I have only recharged it maybe 3 times over the past 5-6 months? (Can't remember date of purchase) and that is with maybe a dozen videos taken and thousands of pictures taken. In short, I'm chuffed :) As stated I am happy with this product and would definately recommend to anyone who is wanting a good DSLR on a budget.
