Canon EOS 200D an ideal DSLR camera for beginners
CANON Marketing (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd has announced the availability of the new EOS 200D DSLR cameras designed for advanced-amateur and entry-level photographers, respectively.
This announcement also marks Canon’s commitment to bringing the best tools to each user, regardless of their experience in photography.
“As a leading imaging company, we understand the different needs and wants of Malaysian photographers – from first-timers, to the most experienced. We are proud to continue to bring the imaging tools needed to both elevate and expand the art of photography in Malaysia,” said Canon Marketing (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd president and chief executive officer Andrew Koh.
The Canon EOS 200D is the latest addition to the EOS DSLR range. Its trendy, light and compact form makes it the world’s smallest APS-C DSLR with a Vari-Angle screen, defying the design notion of traditional DSLR models.
This entry-level DSLR delivers high imaging performance and superior quality images, perfect for photographers who are just getting into the photography game.
EOS 200D will appeal to both smartphone users and aspiring photography enthusiasts. Equipped with a 24.2-megapixel APS-C size CMOS sensor, users will be able to capture crisp pictures containing a high amount of detail, even in low-light.
With the latest DIGIC 7 image processor, standard ISO range expands up to 25,600, which helps reduce motion blur in low light conditions, such as capturing children at play in the evenings, or indoors.
The camera also features the world’s fastest AF speed at 0.03 seconds, allowing for quick focusing on subjects in the frame, thanks to the Canondeveloped Dual Pixel CMOS AF.
Its Live View Servo AF allows users to track subjects constantly, at a continuous shooting speed of up to 3.5 fps. Its Selfie Mode feature also enhances selfie shots.
The small camera body provides an enhanced grip for a more secure grasp. To complement to the smooth outline of the camera body and reduce protrusions, the mode dial now fits seamlessly to the camera’s surface.
With Wi-Fi and NFC connectivity, users can transfer images and videos from the EOS 200D to their smart devices and upload them onto the Canon Image Gateway, social media platforms and cloud storage. The Canon Camera Connect app empowers users real-time control of camera settings such as shutter speed, focus selection and self-timer and more.
In addition, it also features Bluetooth low energy technology which maintains constant connection to a compatible smart device at a low power consumption.
Users can view images, start remote capture, from the camera, even when the camera is in Auto Power Off mode. Smart devices with Bluetooth can wake the camera up, and switch to Wi-Fi for browsing and viewing images or perform remote capture (with Live View).
Canon EOS 200D will come in three colour options - Classic Black, Trendy White and Sophisticated Silver. It is also scheduled to be available in early August 2017 and priced at RM2,999, inclusive of EF-S 18-55 IS STM lens.
