Manufacturer's Description


The EOS 450D blends an uncompromising performance with ease of use in a lightweight, ergonomic body. Capture your world with a 12.2 megapixel CMOS sensor and the very latest Canon technologies. The 12.2 megapixel CMOS sensor gives you plenty of detail for poster-size prints and extra flexibility when cropping. Sensitive in low light and virtually noise-free, Canon's CMOS sensors are also remarkably power-efficient. The EOS 450D captures up to 3.5 frames per second for a continuous burst of up to 53 large JPEG images. The 9 AF points are spread out across the frame to better accommodate off-center subjects. The central AF point is a high sensitivity cross type sensor for quick, accurate focusing with f/2.8 and faster lenses.
