The Canon EOS Rebel XS Digital Camera incorporates a number of high-end functions and technology found in Canon's professional SLR models, including an improved autofocus sensor, and an advanced Live View function. Plus the proprietary DIGIC III image processor ensures that the fine details and natural colors of the images are optimally recorded, and also manages the camera's efficient energy consumption and high-speed signal processing performance.
|
|
•
|
The 10.5 megapixel APS-C size CMOS sensor employs large microlenses over each pixel to reduce noise and enhance sensitivity up to ISO 1600.

|
|
•
|
The 2.5-inch, high-resolution LCD monitor makes it easy for users to review images and scroll through the menus, and also features a broadened color gamut and a wide viewing perspective in all directions. Furthermore the EOS Rebel XS camera features Live View - which allows users to frame shots through the LCD screen rather than the viewfinder - this is particularly useful when shooting at odd angles or in situations when looking through the viewfinder is impractical.
|
|
•
|
The Rebel XS DSLR utilizes Canon's EOS Integrated Cleaning system. This involves a Self-Cleaning Sensor Unit that shakes dust particles off of the low-pass filter in front of the sensor, along with post processing with the supplied Digital Photo Professional software. Here the camera maps any spots that may remain on the sensor and subsequently subtracting dust spots from the final image during post processing.
|
|
•
|

|
2.5-inch LCD Monitor with Live View Function
|
|
•
|
The EOS Rebel XS has a bright 2.5-inch TFT color LCD monitor with 230,000 pixels and a viewing angle of 170°. It's perfect for Live View composition or viewing camera settings like AF, ISO, Metering, AF Point selection and flash options. The Live View Function enables you to view your subjects directly on the LCD monitor, making it easy to grab odd-angle shots, and you can magnify any part of the scene 5x or 10x for precise manual focus. You can even choose a grid overlay, perfect for keeping straight lines in your subject straight in your pictures. In Live View Function, the camera has two AF modes: Quick mode, which uses the camera's standard 7-point AF system, and Live mode, which is a contrast-based AF system that reads the sharpness of subjects right from the imaging sensor. A familiar feature in PowerShot cameras, Live mode AF uses similar technologies to achieve focus, while Quick mode is more appropriate for capturing action or for shooting in low light.

|
|
•
|
Auto Lighting Optimizer
|
|
•
|
The EOS Rebel XS includes Canon's exclusive Auto Lighting Optimizer, which can actually lighten dark areas of a scene while ensuring that bright areas maintain detail without getting washed out. In addition, it can increase contrast in "flat" lighting, such as overcast days.
|
|
•
|
Picture Style technology provides photographers with the ability to change the look of their digital photographs, by allowing users to make adjustments to color, saturation, sharpness and contrast setting, and create noticeable variation in the saved image. Changing a Picture Style setting is akin to a 35mm film user switching from one type of color film to another. In addition to six preset Picture Style settings, Canon offers additional downloadable "Picture Style Files" that can be installed into your camera for even more imaging options at your fingertips.
