Canon's new EOS 50D bridges the gap between the novice and the seasoned
pro with a perfect combination of high-speed and quality. It features an APS-C
sized 15.1-megapixel CMOS sensor for tremendous images, new DIGIC 4
Image Processor for fine detail and superior color reproduction, and improved
ISO capabilities up to 12800 for uncompromised shooting even in the dimmest
situations. It features a refined 3.0-inch Clear View LCD (920,000 dots)
monitor, supercharged Live View Function with Face Detection Live mode,
plus a number of new automatic Image Correction settings and HDMI output
for viewing images on an HDTV. Pick up the EOS 50D and you'll experience
true digital inspiration!

Lens: Standard zoom lens with an Image Stabilizer and high zoom ratio. With
the Image Stabilizer turned on, you can obtain sharp, natural-looking pictures in
dim lighting without using flash or a tripod. Very handy for places where flash is
prohibited. Uses ring-type USM for swift, silent autofocus and full-time manual
focus. Closest focusing distance is 20 in. (50cm).
