| Focusing Points | Area AF with 45 focusing points |
| Focusing Point Selection | Any one focusing point, 45-point automatic selection, can be registered by pressing the Assist Button and FE lock button. Pressing the Assist Button and focusing point selector switches to the registered focusing point. |
| Focus Modes | 1(1) One-Shot AF: Autofocus stops when focus is achieved, resulting in AF lock.(2) AI Servo AF: Tracks subject movement up to the start of exposure. No in-focus indicator (blinks at 8 Hz only if AF fails).(3) Manual focusing: Enabled with the focusing ring when the lens focus mode is set to MF (or M). Electronic manual focusing during continuous shooting and exposure is enabled with PB-E2 and NP-E2. |
| AF Focus Indictor | Superimposed focusing point in viewfinder and also indicated on LCD panel |
| AF Working Range | EV 0-18 (at ISO 100) |
| AF Assist Method | Emitted automatically by the attached EOS Speedlite when necessary. |
| Exposure Control | |
| Metering Modes | TTL max. aperture metering with a 21 zone silicon photocell.
1. Evaluative metering (linkable to any point)
2. Partial metering (approx. 8.5% of viewfinder at center)
3. Center spot metering (approx. 2.4% of viewfinder at center)
4. Spot metering (linked to focusing point at approx. 2.4% of viewfinder)
* During continuous shooting with metering modes (3) and (4), the first shot is metered in real time and the meter reading is locked (AE lock) for subsequent shots in the same burst.
5. Multi-spot metering (Max. 8 multi-spot metering entries)
6. Center-weighted averaging metering |

| Exposure Modes | 1. Program AE(shiftable)
2. Shutter speed-priority AE( in 1/3,1/2 or full stops, safety shift enable with Custom Function)
3. Aperture-priority AE(in 1/3,1/2 or full stops, safety shift enabled with Custom Function)
4. Depth of field AE
5. E-TTL program flash AE (high-speed sync, FE lock, and wireless control enabled with 550EX)
6.A-TTL program flash AE
7. TTL program flash AE
8. Manual
9. Bulb |
| ISO Film Speed Range | ISO 6-6400 (Set automaticaly with DX-coded film at ISO 25-5000) |
| Exposure Compensation | 1. Auto exposure bracketing (AEB) : +/- 3stops in 1/3 stop increments. Standard exposure, underexposure, and overexposure sequence. Repeated bracketing enabled according to current film advance mode. With self-timer, all three bracketed shots are taken in the continuous shooting mode regardless of the film advance mode.
2. Manual exposure compensation: +/-3 stops in 1/3-stop increments set with the Quick Control Dial or exposure compensation button on the Main Dial.
3. AEB and manual exposure compensation can be set together. |
| AE Lock | Auto AE Lock: Operates in One-Shot AF mode with evaluative metering when focus is achieved.
Manual AE lock: AE lock button activates Ae lock in all metering modes. Multiple exposures: Max 9 multiple exposures. Cancels automatically after all mutiple exposures are taken.(Cancelable and resettable at any time.) |
| Shutter | |
| Type | Vertical-travel, focal-plane shutter with all speeds electronically-controlled. |
| Shutter Speeds | 30 to 1/8000 sec. in 1/3-stops, X-sync at 1/250 sec. |
| Shutter Release | Soft-touch electromagnetic release |
| Self Timer | 10-sec. or 2-sec. delay. |
| Remote Control | Remote control/data transfer terminal with waterproof and dustproof cap provided. |
| Built-in-Flash | |
| Type | E-TTL autoflash, A-TTL autoflash, TTL autoflash |
| Flash Contacts | (1) Hot shoe: X-sync direct contacts(2) Right side bottom: PC terminal (threaded) |
| Film Transport | |
| Film Loading | Automatic. After film is loaded and the back closed, the film advances to frame 1 automatically, taking about 1 sec. |
| Film Speed Setting | Automatic film advance with built-in motor.(1) EOS-1V: Single-frame and continuous shooting.(2) EOS-1V + Power Drive Booster PB-E2: Single-frame, low-speed continuous, high-speed continuous, and ultra-high speed continuous (w/NP-E2). |
