Canon EOS 400D

Canon EOS 400D : According to Engadget who spotted on the official Chinese Canon web site some new Canon EOS DSLR information, we may expect a new Canon digital SLR introduction; Canon EOS 400D. Before some of you point a finger to us and say boo…; "No, we are not under NDA. So far we have not been informed by any official Canon contact." Digging a little bit deeper we found some interesting information and will sum it for you. First of all, the new Canon EOS 400D suppose to have a new CMOS image sensor incorporated. The new CMOS sensor features 10.1 effective Megapixels and has an integrated dust removal system. Furthermore the Canon 400D is equipped with a large 2.5-inch LCD monitor and a 9-point auto focus system.

Although the information has not been confirmed yet, and therefore may not be correct the new Canon EOS 400D DSLR will lead the way for entry-level digital SLR cameras to a new area. The Canon 400D incorporates a APS-C size (22.2 x 14.8 mm) CMOS image sensor providing a focal length of 1.6x and offers 10.1 million effective Megapixels creating high resolution images of 3888 x 2592 pixels and a ISO range of 100 - 1600 ISO.

Canon EOS 400D camera - Dust removal system
A new interesting feature of the Canon EOS 400D is the integrated dust removal system which offers three methods. First, after turning on the Canon 400D removes all dust via ultrasound vibration. This procedure may take one second, but can be interrupted any time by just pressing the shutter release button halfway down, so you'll never miss an important shot. Second, via software (Digital Photo Professional 2.2) where the image is cleaned through some kind of calculation. And last, remove the dust by hand. The old method where you lock up the mirror, shutter curtain opens en you may be able to blow away any dust on the sensor.
