- Page 11 General Information １） Image recording ⑴ L arge, single-piece CMOS sensor with approx. 10.1-megapixels (=EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi / 400D DIGITAL) The same 10.1-megapixel ＊ CMOS sensor (Fig. 002) used in the EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi / 400D DIGITAL is incorporated. With an image sensor size of 22.2 mm × 14.8 mm, the effective angle of view is approx. 1.6 times the lens focal length. ＊Effective pixels. Fig. 002 CMOS sensor (actual size) ⑵DIGIC III （=EOS-1D Mark III) While retaining the DIGIC II's features for fine image detail, natural colors, and high speed, the new DIGIC III imaging engine attains faster signal processing speed. ⑶14-bit A/D conversion （=EOS-1D Mark III) The analog output signal from the imaging element is converted into a digital signal with 14-bit (16384 colors) processing instead of the previous 12-bit (4096 colors). This ...
- Page 12 General Information ⑸ISO speed As with the EOS 30D, the ISO speed range is 100-1600, settable in 1/3-stop or whole- stop increments. ISO 3200 extension can also be set. The ISO speed is now always displayed in the viewfinder and on the LCD panel. ●Auto ISO speed enabled in Creative Zone modes With the EOS 40D, you can now set auto ISO speed even in the Creative Zone modes (Fig. 004). When the ISO speed is set to [Auto], ISO 400 is initially set. Then depending on the lighting conditions, the ISO Fig. 004 ISO speed setting screen speed is set automatically as shown in Table 003. The automatically-set ISO speed is displayed in the viewfinder and on the LCD panel while the metering is active. In the Basic Zone modes, the automatically-set ISO speed range is 100-800 which is 1 stop higher on the high end than the EOS 30D. Table 003 [Auto] ISO Speed Settings Shooting mode ISO Speed Settings Set within ISO 400-800 so that the respective shutter speed will not cause P/Av/ camera shake under the current lighting conditions. A-DEP If overexposure will result at ISO 400, a lower ISO speed, as low as ISO 100, ...
- Page 13 General Information ●High ISO speed noise reduction (C.Fn II-2) This is noise reduction for images taken at a high ISO speed as in the EOS-1D Mark III. Although noise reduction is applied at all ISO speeds, it is particularly effective at high ISO speeds. At low ISO speeds, the noise in the shadow areas is further reduced. Also, when [High ISO speed noise reduction] is set, the maximum burst during Fig. 006 C.Fn II-2 continuous shooting will decrease to 8, regardless of the image-recording quality. ⑶Highlight tone priority (C.Fn II-3) (=EOS-1D Mark III) This function seeks to improve the highlight detail. The range is extended between 18% gray and the maximum highlight tone. This makes the gradation finer from the grays to the highlights and reduces blown highlights. This function also limits the settable ISO speed range to 200-1600. Fig. 007 C.Fn II-3 ⑷White balance ...
- Page 14 General Information ●Shooting backup Images in the CF card can be backed up to external media. Besides the quick backup feature also found in the EOS-1D Mark III, the folder to back up the images can be created or selected. Only checkmarked images can also be backed up (Fig. 010). Fig. 010 Backup ３）EOS Integrated Cleaning System (=EOS-1D Mark III) The Self Cleaning Sensor Unit is the same type as in the EOS- 1D Mark III (Fig. 011). The specifications for acquiring and appending Dust Delete Data to the image are the same as with the EOS-1D Mark III. Fig. 011 Self Cleaning Sensor Unit ４）Shooting functions ⑴Autofocus ● N ine cross-type AF points (center AF point sensitive to vertical and horizontal lines at f/2.8). The newly-developed AF sensor (Fig. 012) with nine cross-type AF points greatly boosts AF performance. The ...
- Page 15 General Information ⑵Drive Continuous shooting speed at approx. 6.5 fps (maximum) and approx. 3 fps. The drive mode selection loop now includes 2-sec. self-timer. The maximum burst during continuous shooting is approx. 75 Large/Fine shots and approx. 17 RAW shots (both during high-speed continuous shooting). Despite the higher number of megapixels due to the larger image size, continuous shooting is still fast. ⑶Shutter (=EOS 30D) The shutter unit is the same as the EOS 30D's. The shutter speed range is 1/8000 sec. to 30 sec. with Bulb and X-sync at 1/250 sec. ⑷Exposure control (=EOS 30D) The shooting modes, 35-zone metering sensor, and metering modes (evaluative, partial, spot, and center-weighted average) are all the same as the EOS 30D. ⑸Viewfinder ●Viewfinder optics To make the viewfinder clearer to see, 0.95x magnification, 26.4°...
- Page 16 General Information ●AF function (C.Fn III-6) Pressing the AF-ON button pauses the Live View shooting (reflex mirror goes down) and executes AF. Letting go of the AF-ON button resumes the Live View shooting. (C.Fn) ⑺Flash The built-in flash unit is basically the same as the EOS 30D's. The EOS 30D's Custom Functions "Flash firing," "E-TTL II," and "Shutter curtain sync" have been consolidated into the menu's [Built-in flash func. setting] (Fig. 015). Also, with the SPEEDLITE 580EX II, the camera can be used to set the SPEEDLITE 580EX II's settings as with Fig. 015 Built-in flash func. screen the EOS-1D Mark III. ⑻Compatible with EF-S lenses The camera is compatible with all EF lenses, including EF-S lenses. ５）Large LCD monitor This is a 3.0-in. TFT liquid- crystal color monitor (Fig. 016) ...
- Page 17 General Information Since the EOS 40D does not have a display-off sensor, press the INFO. button to turn on/off the INFO display. ＊ I f auto power off is [Off] and the camera is left idle, the LCD monitor will turn off automatically after 30 min. (The camera power does not turn off.) ⑵Menu display As with the EOS-1D Mark III, turn the Main Dial to select the menu tab and turn the Quick Control Dial to select the menu option (Fig. 019).
