Overview
The Canon EOS series was first introduced in 1987 and revolutionized photography with the implementation of an electronic lens mount and autofocus system.
It employs a digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) design which uses a reflex mirror to direct light from the lens to an optical viewfinder.
The series supports interchangeable lenses, allowing flexibility in composition and shooting conditions.
The cameras in this series incorporate advanced metering systems and high-resolution sensors to produce sharp and vibrant images.
The EOS system includes a sophisticated autofocus mechanism that delivers precise and rapid focusing suitable for both still photography and moving subjects.
Connectivity features have evolved over the series, including USB and Wi-Fi, to facilitate easy image transfer and remote control.
