Main Features

With the Canon EOS 500D, every side of your story comes alive. Capture every detail in stunning 15.1 megapixels resolution, or switch to shooting pin-sharp full high definition video.

The EOS 500D combines exceptional still shooting with the ability to shoot Full HD (1080p) video. For occasions when larger amounts of footage need to be stored on a memory card, users can also choose to shoot at 720p or VGA resolution. An HDMI connection allows high definition playback of footage and images on any HDTV.

  • 15.1 megapixels CMOS sensor
    Ideal for those who want to create large, poster-size prints - or crop images to perfection without losing any of the detail necessary for printing. Canon's 15.1megapixels CMOS sensor is outstanding in low light, and produces images with incredibly low noise.

  • Full HD movie recording
    The EOS 500D combines exceptional still shooting with the ability to shoot Full HD (1080p) video. For occasions when larger amounts of footage need to be stored on a memory card, users can also choose to shoot at 720p or VGA resolution. An HDMI connection allows high definition playback of footage and images on any HDTV.

  • High ISO for low light
    When light levels fall, the EOS 500D offers an ISO range of up to 3200 - expandable to 12800 for those environments where using flash is undesirable.

  • 3.4fps with up to 170 JPEG burst
    The EOS 500D features shooting speeds of up to 3.4fps in continuous bursts of up to 170 large JPEG images.

  • 3.0" ClearView LCD with live view mode
    Detailed checks on images and video are possible with a 3.0" ClearView LCD screen, which features an ultra-high 920,000 dots for increased clarity. Switch to live view mode and use the real-time visual feed to shoot from awkward angles.

  • 9-point AF system
    A high-precision AF system employs 9 AF points AF points are located throughout the frame to better accommodate off-center subjects. For accurate focusing with fast aperture lenses, the central AF point features a high sensitivity cross-type sensor, suitable for lenses with an aperture of f/2.8 or faster.

  • DIGIC 4
    Canon's DIGIC 4 processor works with the CMOS sensor to deliver 14-bit image processing, for smooth gradations and natural looking colors. DIGIC 4 also powers advanced noise reduction when shooting at higher ISO speeds, plus split-second startup times and near-instant image review after shooting.

  • EOS integrated cleaning system
    Canon's built-in dust prevention system offers three ways of guarding images against the effects of dust: reduction of internal dust generation and an in-camera sensor cleaning mechanism.

    By Jason - Apr 21, 2010

    “Ordered the printer on Monday 26th April with a 3 day delivery time so expected it around the Thursday mark. It arrived on Tuesday morning! Unfortunately I wasnt in to receive it. Damn you IT247 and your unexpectedly quick delivery times :) I spoke to someone via email and was told they would re-deliver the next day which they did, again in the morning. Good times. The price was 25 pounds cheaper than anywhere else. I emailed them again to ask for an invoice and was told promptly that it would follow in the post in 2 days time which it did. Printer is excellent and also has a 30 pound rebate so I get a 100 pound printer for around 40 quid. Rock on.”
