Users can then view their shots on the unit’s 3-inch screen which incorporates an anti-reflection and anti-smudging coating.
Canon Australia’s Brand Manager for EOS, Chris Macleod said, “The EOS 500D boasts a Canon first for entry-level DSLR cameras with the inclusion of Full High Definition movie recording, which allows users to get creative and expand their shooting capabilities. This high-quality, feature-packed DSLR is very easy to use and promises to make DSLR photography fun for first-time users, those looking to upgrade and those looking to take their creativity to whole new level.”
