  • Larger 2.5-inch LCD monitor; 3.5 percent spot meter; selectable 5fps/3fps continuous shooting modes; numerous dedicated buttons; excellent low-light images at high ISO.
  • No anti-reflection coating on LCD; 1.6x crop factor; camera turns off when memory card compartment is opened; top LCD panel doesnt display current ISO setting.
  • The Canon EOS 30D is an excellent midrange digital SLR for enthusiasts and first-time photographers looking for a professional shooter.
