Eleven years after launching the world's most successful range of SLR cameras, Canon has advanced camera technology a step further with the launch of the EOS-3 - a camera that further improves the speed and performance for which the EOS range is renowned. The EOS-3 incorporates the world's first area AF system, a high precision focusing system, higher speed eye-control and improved high-speed focus tracking. Such technology combined with many of the features of the EOS- 1N and, of course compatibility with the extensive range of over 50 EF lenses and accessories, make the EOS 3 the perfect choice for advanced amateurs and professionals alike. The EOS 3 design is based on that of the EOS 1N - sturdy with easily accessible controls for quick and easy execution of camera operations. A range of accessories developed specifically for the EOS 3, including a new Speedlite flash, is being launched at the same time.
