CMOS Sensor

22.3 mm

EOS 50D APS-C CMOS Sensor (actual size)

The EOS 50D CMOS sensor delivers a high imaging resolution of approximately 15.1

effective megapixels. The recording area of the sensor is 22.3 x 14.9mm (APS-C), which results in a lens conversion (crop) factor of approximately

1.6 in relation to the traditional full-frame 35mm film format. An innovative micro semiconductor manufacturing process has increased the photodiode area and the photoelectric conversion rate, significantly improving noise performance, high ISO shooting capability and overall dynamic range. Light gathering efficiency has been improved through an improved fabrication process that eliminates gaps between the microlenses. An enhanced high-speed data acquisition system, which employs four channels per line, ensures faster image capture.

Advanced DIGIC 4 Image

Processor

Successive generations of Canon DIGIC technology have brought steady improvement in processing speed and image quality, providing the necessary power to deal with the increased volume of data generated by imaging sensors of ever-increasing pixel dimensions. The DIGIC 4 Image Processor in the EOS 50D incorporates the latest Canon technologies, elevating imaging performance to dizzying heights. Moreover, the DIGIC 4

Image Processor makes possible, an array of advanced features, such as Live View Function with Face Detection AF, Auto Lighting Optimizer,

Lens Peripheral Illumination Correction and expanded RAW capture options.

Expanded ISO Range

The advanced design of the Canon EOS 50D

CMOS sensor and DIGIC 4 Image Processor delivers a remarkably wide ISO range of 100–3200 in standard mode, selectable in 1/3-stop increments. In extended range mode, the high end can be boosted to 6400 or 12800. The combined low-noise performance of the CMOS sensor and

DIGIC4 Image Processor makes the higher ISO settings usable in real-world shooting situations.

Multiple RAW Recording Options

The EOS 50D augments traditional RAW recording by providing three RAW capture modes. The standard RAW mode fully utilizes the sensor providing a 4752 x 3168 pixel (approximately

15.1 Megapixels) image. The sRAW1 and sRAW2 modes capture at 3267 x 2178 (approx.

7.1 Megapixels) and 2376 x 1584 (approx. 3.8

Megapixels) pixels, respectively. The latter two

RAW recording options greatly enhance shooting flexibility, enabling the photographer to select pixel dimensions appropriate to the assignment and reducing file sizes whenever possible to streamline processing.

Outstanding Low-Noise Performance

Riveting image quality is also assured by an improved noise reduction system. A Custom

Function can be used to select automatic noise reduction with long exposures. Similarly, a Custom Function allows the photographer to fine-tune the degree to which noise reduction is applied when shooting at high ISO settings.

The DIGIC 4 Image Processor has significantly reduced chroma noise in shadow areas.

Moreover, all but the strongest noise reduction setting can now be selected without adversely affecting the maximum burst shooting speed in continuous mode.

Rugged Construction

The EOS 50D is a durable, dependable camera.

The top, front and rear covers of the body are made of magnesium alloy, known for its outstanding strength and light weight. Furthermore, by integrating the camera grip with the front cover, Canon engineers achieved excellent body rigidity. The body’s basic chassis is constructed of stainless steel for exceptional durability and long-term mechanical reliability.

Innovative EOS

Integrated Cleaning

System

The Canon EOS Integrated

Cleaning System uses ultrasonic vibration to remove

Self Cleaning

Sensor Unit dust that settles on the sensor surface. This self-cleaning routine is automatically activated whenever the camera is powered on or off, but can also be manually activated by the user. Moreover, by shooting a plain white subject, the photographer can acquire dust delete data that are transmitted along with the image (whether JPEG or RAW).

Canon Digital Photo Professional (DPP) software can then be used to manually or automatically erase the dust spots. The EOS 50D incorporates the advanced Integrated Cleaning System that features an ultrasonic vibration system and a fluorine coating on the low-pass filter that better resists dust adhesion.

Fast Continuous Shooting with

Precise Autofocus

Nine AF points make it easier to lock onto subjects, even if they are not centered in the composition. All AF points are of the cross type, with a diagonally mounted cross-type sensor at the center AF point that is sensitive to both vertical and horizontal lines. This enhances available light autofocus performance when using lenses f/2.8 and faster. The EOS 50D autofocus system also incorporates an advanced automatic compensation system that virtually eliminates the focusing errors that can occur with different light sources. In addition, the EOS 50D provides

AF microadjustment capability via a Custom

Function. Microadjustment can be performed globally (for all lenses) or individually for each lens in a photographer’s arsenal. Up to 20 lenses can be programmed for AF microadjustment.

The high-performance shutter assembly, the fast autofocus system, the advanced

TECHNOLOGY

CMOS sensor, and the world-class DIGIC 4

Image Processor combine to make the EOS 50D a highly responsive, fast-handling camera.

Despite the increased data handling requirements associated with 15.1 Megapixel image capture,

6.3 fps continuous shooting speed the EOS 50D can shoot continuously at 6.3 fps.

It can also capture up to 60 consecutive fullresolution JPEG images when a traditional CF card is used, and up to 90 JPEG images when a

UDMA CF card is used, or up to 16 RAW images in a single continuous burst with either a CF or

UDMA CF card.

Picture Style Presets

The Canon Picture Style feature provides a number of user-friendly presets that eliminate the need to make numerous individual changes to camera settings. They enable the photographer to make optimal choices based simply on the type of shooting. The EOS 50D provides six factory preset styles (Standard, Portrait, Landscape,

Neutral, Faithful and Monochrome) and enables the user to program three additional custom presets. Modifiable parameters include sharpness, contrast, color saturation, color tone, filter effect and toning effect.

Auto Lighting Optimizer

The Auto Lighting Optimizer automatically adjusts brightness and contrast during image processing.

This process can dramatically improve the tonal qualities of an image, especially when shooting conditions cause AE underexposure, flash underexposure, low contrast, or back-lit scene underexposure. It is automatically selected when shooting with the EOS 50D in the Full

Auto or Creative Auto mode. In all other shooting modes, the user can select standard, weak, strong or no processing.

Lens Peripheral Illumination Correction

This powerful feature automatically corrects for light fall-off at the four corners of an image with many lenses. Since peripheral illumination characteristics vary for each lens, this corrective system relies on a registered database.

With JPEG images, the correction is performed in-camera at the time of capture. With RAW images, the correction can be performed postcapture using Canon DPP software. The EOS 50D can store correction data for approximately 20

Canon lenses, and lens data can be added or deleted using the EOS Utility.

Extended Live View

Function Capabilities

Live View Function allows the photographer to compose and shoot using the rear LCD monitor. Live View Function settings can now be accessed via a centralized function screen for easier use. In Live View mode, the camera uses Evaluative metering via the image sensor.

Most shooting options — such as drive mode,

ISO speed, Picture Style, white balance and AF mode (see below) — can be selected while in

Live View mode.

There are three Live View AF modes. In Quick mode, the AF sensor is used for phase-difference detection. One-Shot AF is automatically selected, and the user can select an AF point even while the Live View Function image is displayed. When the AF Start button is pressed, the mirror goes down, momentarily interrupting the live display. After autofocus has executed, the mirror flips up, and the Live View Function image is restored. The Live mode uses the image sensor to perform contrast-detection AF. The

Multi-controller can be used to select the AF point within 63% of the picture area. The Face

Detection Live mode uses contrast AF to detect the human face. If multiple faces are detected, the face closer to the center and/or the larger face is automatically selected as the AF point.

The photographer can use the Multi-controller to select a different face for AF as desired.

3.0-inch Clear View LCD Monitor

A high-performance LCD monitor provides large, detailed image and informational display.

Great Images Start with Great Lenses

137

For many professional photographers, Canon EF Series lenses alone are reason enough to choose the EOS System. A venerable blend of world-class optics, microelectronics, and precision manufacturing technologies such as a new SWC (Subwavelength

Structure Coating) lens coating for better light transmission and reduced flare, EF lenses are perfected in Canon’s laboratories and proven in the field. Whatever, whenever and wherever you shoot, you can count on Canon EF lenses to deliver high quality imaging performance.

Optical Image Stabilizer

Canon’s Optical Image Stabilizer technology makes handheld photography possible in more low-light situations than ever before. When camera shake occurs using normal lenses without Optical Image

Stabilizer technology, the image projected on the image sensor also shakes, often resulting in blurred images at slower shutter speeds. With Canon Image Stabilized lenses, a special group of lens elements automatically shifts position, compensating for the movement and stabilizing the image. This compensatory effect adds the equivalent of up to 4-stops (depending upon the lens), expanding a photographer’s handheld options dramatically.

With Optical IS in the lens, C anon can equip each IS lens with the stabilizer it needs for effective shake correction.

Other systems are limited by how far they can move an image sensor, and as a result, their stabilization is less effective as telephoto lengths get longer.

Also, Optical IS can be seen right in the viewfinder — impossible with some other stabilizer systems.

Hybrid Image Stabilizer

During normal shooting situations, sudden camera movement in rotational camera angles can cause significant image blur. During macro or close-up photography however, the image blur caused by linear camera shake — when the camera moves parallel to the subject — is more pronounced. Optical Image

Angle camera shake

(oscillating)

Shift camera shake

Stabilizer (OIS) is optimized to counteract rotational or angular camera shake and works well for most camera shooting situations. To help compensate for linear camera shake, a new acceleration sensor was required, the Hybrid Image

Stabilizer.

100mm f/2.8L Macro

IS USM, employs a highly sophisticated algorithm combining the feedback of both

Taken with EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM with Hybrid Image Stabilizer the acceleration sensor and angular velocity sensor found in current OIS technology. This combination moves the image stabilizer lens elements, effectively compensating for both rotational and linear camera shake. Hybrid IS dramatically enhances the effects of Optical Image Stabilizer, especially during macro shooting. The incorporation of Hybrid IS allows users to more effectively compensate for camera shake during close-up shooting, marking a significant improvement in macro photography for portrait, nature or wedding shoots.

L-Series Lenses

Highly regarded among professional photographers, Canon

L-Series lenses are distinguished by a bold red ring around the outer barrel. What makes them truly distinctive, however, is their remarkable optical performance — the result of sophisticated Canon technologies such as Ultra-low

Dispersion UD glass, fluorite and aspherical elements, and

Super Spectra Coating.

Diffractive Optics

Innovative Canon diffractive optics (DO) technology results in high-performance lenses that are more compact than traditional refractive designs. Conventional glass lens elements disperse incoming light, causing chromatic aberration. The Canon multilayer diffractive elements are constructed by bonding diffraction gratings to the surfaces of two or more lens elements. These elements are then combined to form a single multilayer DO element. The DO element’s dispersion characteristics are designed to cancel chromatic aberrations at various wavelengths when combined with conventional glass optics. This results in outstanding reductions in “color fringing” — chromatic aberration — rivaling that of L-Series telephoto lenses. Canon DO technology is ideal for telephoto lens optics and makes possible significant size reduction while maintaining superb optical performance.

Ultrasonic Motor

Canon developed the world’s first lens-based Ultrasonic Motor (USM) to power the lens autofocus Ring-type USM mechanism. Instead of large noisy drive trains powered by conventional motors, Canon USM lenses drive the lens using the fine electronic vibrations created by piezoelectric ceramic elements. The focusing action of the lens is fast and quiet, with virtually instantaneous stops and starts.

USM lenses also draw minimal power from the camera, ensuring longer battery life. Canon makes two types of

Ultrasonic Motor lenses. Ring-type USM lenses, found in large aperture and super-telephoto designs, permit manual focusing without first switching out of the Auto mode. Micro

USM designs bring the performance benefits of Canon USM technology to a wide assortment of affordable EF lenses.

Specialty Lenses

Super Telephoto Lenses — Distinguished by their white color and seen at major sporting events around the world, the powerful EF Super Telephotos are ideal for getting upclose detail from afar. The latest additions to the EF Lenses line-up, the EF 800mm f/5.6L IS USM and EF 200mm f/2L

IS USM feature dust and water resistance, Optical Image

Stabilizer technology for up to 4-stops of shake correction and magnesium alloy components for further weight reductions while retaining strength and durability. They both feature flourite and UD lens elements reducing chromatic aberration for outstanding optical performance. They are also compatible with Extender EF 1.4x II and

Extender EF 2x II, for additional power and versatility.

Fisheye — Perfect for super wide-angle and special-effect photography, Canon’s full-frame fisheye can focus as close as 8 inches (0.2m), and delivers exceptionally sharp images throughout its focus range. Up to three gel filters can be inserted into its built-in rear filter holder.

Macro — The EOS lens lineup has a number of options for true close-up and macro photography. With five different macro lenses for precision, and three screw-on close-up options for convenience — in addition to Life-Size

Converter EF and two Extension Tubes

— Canon EF Macro lenses and close-up accessories can uncover detail that is impossible for the unaided human eye to detect.

TS-E — Canon’s Tilt/Shift lenses bring many of the advantages of technical view cameras to the EOS

System. Tilt movements alter the angle of the plane of focus between the lens and film plane, allowing precise control of depth-of-field even at large apertures. Shift movements slide the lens’s optical axis along the film/sensor plane, enabling photographers to correct or alter perspective at almost any angle.

EF-S Lenses — Designed for Canon EOS Digital cameras with APS-C sized sensors (with a 1.6x conversion factor),

Canon EF-S lenses take advantage of the sensor’s smaller size to deliver optimized performance in compact, lightweight designs.

Smarter Flash Photography

139

Integral to the EOS System, Canon Speedlites are the ideal flash light source for EOS SLR cameras. They are technologically advanced to provide perfect exposure and illumination with just about any subject. They are also highly adaptable, providing an endless variety of configurations and versatile shooting options. For professional flash photography, rely on Canon

Speedlites to solve the most demanding lighting challenges.

E-TTL II

Canon E-TTL (Evaluative

Through-The-Lens) flash exposure control uses a preflash fired after the shutter button has been fully depressed — but before the camera’s reflex mirror goes up. The camera’s Evaluative metering sensor — the same sensor that reads ambient light — is used to compare the ambient light values with the light reflected from the subject by the preflash.

The camera then calculates and stores the flash output required for optimum exposure of the main subject and the background.

E-TTL II additionally incorporates distance information from compatible EF lenses for the most precise flash exposure control. For example, it ignores sensor areas that report abnormally high levels, eliminating underexposure that can otherwise be caused by straight reflections.

Correct flash exposure is ensured even when shooting a subject with a highly reflective object in the background, or if the subject itself is highly reflective. In addition, because distance information is used in calculating the flash output level, E-TTL II prevents over-exposure when photographers lock focus and recompose.

Wireless Auto Flash

Control

Multiple Speedlites can obtain lighting effects not possible with a single flash. While previous multiple-flash setups required cumbersome wires to connect the camera and flashes, compatible

EOS Speedlites can be used as wireless Slaves. With a

Speedlite 580EX II or Speedlite Transmitter ST-E2 attached to an EOS Digital SLR, an unlimited number of compatible

EX-Series Speedlites can operate as dedicated Slave units. With nothing more than an EOS camera and a number of Speedlite flashes, the opportunities for creative lighting are endless.

Macro Photography and Wireless Options

The Canon Speedlite flash system family includes versatile solutions for macro photography requirements: The Macro

Ring Lite MR-14EX features twin circular flash tubes that can be fired at equal or uneven power with a ratio that can be varied over a six-stop range. One or more compatible

EX-Series Speedlites can be used as wireless slaves along with the MR-14EX. Incandescent focusing lamps and two types of modeling flash are provided to enable preview of lighting effects.

The Power of Wireless Connectivity

141

As quickly as the digital SLR has become commonplace in the hands of professional photographers and enthusiasts alike, so too has wireless communication between the SLR and external components. The EOS series has a number of dedicated

Wireless File Transmitters that keep the camera connected to the wireless world, simply, with tremendous speed. Whether connected through a port on the side of the camera or incorporated into a camera-integrated design, Canon Wireless

Transmitters can connect and have two-way communication with computers and handheld devices.

Transmitter Technology

Canon Wireless

Transmitters can, wirelessly and quickly, connect to

Local Area Networks (LANs) up to 500 feet and connect and upload to FTP (File

Transfer Protocol) or dedicated WFT (Wireless File

Transfer) servers. In HTTP mode, up to three separate computers, anywhere in the world, can access a camera’s memory card with the WFT using a standard web browser (Microsoft Internet

Explorer™, Apple Safari™, etc.). Images can be selected from the browser window and dragged onto a computer’s desktop or to a folder, which copies the full file to the computer. EOS

Utility connectivity allows the photographer to connect a single camera to a computer for advanced two-way communication. WFT controllers can also connect through USB or

Bluetooth to GPS units, and have coordinates, altitude and time code added to each image’s shooting (or EXIF) data.

External hard drives can be attached for direct recording or backup. Plus, select WFT models can be used as remote control receivers, allowing for wireless shooting and control, from a range of web-enabled handheld devices — even iPhones and the iPod Touch.

Wi-Fi & WPS

Connecting the camera to a network over Wi-Fi with a Wireless Protected

Setup (WPS) couldn’t be simpler. There are three ways to connect a WFT equipped EOS with a Server: With a push button configuration (PBC

Method), the photographer selects WPS on the camera and pushes the wireless LAN WFT setting display terminal’s WPS button to make the connection. With the

WPS Pin Method, the photographer selects WPS (Pin

Method) on the camera and an 8-digit identification number is assigned and sent to the LAN terminal. Once confirmed, the secure connection is complete. Finally, a WPS can also be set up with a connection wizard. The photographer selects the “wizard connection” on the camera’s menu, selects a Wireless LAN terminal, sets an encryption key and then enters it for a wireless connection.

File Transfer & FTP WFT

With a WFT and an FTP server, wireless remote live view shooting is possible over the Internet, making it possible to setup, shoot and save from a remote location.

Meanwhile, through an Internet browser, the camera’s

Live View image can be seen, settings can be confirmed and changed, shots can be taken and images can be recorded on the camera and computer simultaneously.

Wired LAN Internet

Media Server (DLNA)

Many Canon WFT devices are compatible with DLNA

(Digital Living Network Alliance) compliant devices. With a

WFT attached, the Digital EOS can create a dedicated DLNA media server, allowing numerous points of access to images, instantaneously and wirelessly. This means that not only can media recorded on the EOS be uploaded wirelessly to a computer; they can also be viewed through

DLNA compatible audio systems, televisions, Digital Video

Players, even networked media players.

Arranging the slave cameras

Access Point, up to 10 cameras can be connected and set up to take a shot the instant the shutter is released on the

Master (main) camera. With an effective distance of 150 meters, this linked shooting is invaluable for the best possible capture of sports, news and wildlife and other quickly moving subjects that can be shot from a number of angles.

Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E2 II A*

Compatible with the EOS-1D Mark IV and the

EOS-1Ds Mark III (after a Firmware upgrade), the compact new WFT-E2 II A connects directly to the camera. It’s IIEE802.11 a/b/g compatible for fast communication, and works with WPS setups, the hyper-sophisticated Canon Camera

Remote Live View shooting. It can be a dedicated Media

Server, plus has Bluetooth and USB built in for connections to GPS units and more. Designed to mount directly to the side of the compatible EOS camera, it maintains the integrity of all weather-resistant seals and the rugged durability of the camera while affording access to all the camera’s buttons and controls.

Bluetooth, USB (GPS)

Whether connected by Bluetooth or through

USB, GPS devices can be connected to Canon

WFT transmitters to transmit location and elevation data along with the EXIF data for each image. With

Bluetooth connections, photographers can enjoy all of the benefits of GPS units without the concern of tangled wires interfering while shooting, and can connect directly to

Bluetooth compatible printers. With USB, not only are GPS connections possible, it’s also easy to connect an external

Hard Drive for direct recording or backup.

Live View Function

The EOS-1Ds Mark III, EOS-1D

Mark IV, EOS 5D Mark II, EOS 7D and EOS 50D all offer Live View

Function, which enables the image at the sensor to be displayed on a computer monitor in real time.

With Canon EOS Utility software installed on the computer, the user can check and adjust focus and composition on the computer. The camera can even be fired remotely from the computer. Connection between the camera and computer can be via USB cable or, with the optional Wireless File

Transmitter WFT-E2 II A*, WFT-E2A, WFT-E4 II A, WFT-E4A,

WFT-E5A or WFT-E3A via wireless LAN. The wireless option enables all Live View capabilities over a distance up to

492 feet (150m).**

Live View Function is a powerful problem-solver that addresses all those situations in which it would be awkward, difficult, or impossible to shoot conventionally by looking through the viewfinder. Requested by numerous studio and remote sports photographers, the Canon Remote Live

View Function enables EVF (electronic viewfinder) shooting via a wired or wirelessly connected computer. While viewing the real-time output from the camera’s imaging sensor on a computer monitor, the photographer can perform numerous functions — such as check and adjust the focus using 5x and 10x magnification; check for moiré and false color; and verify composition, lighting and exposure — before remotely releasing the shutter via the computer.

Original Data Security Kit OSK-E3

Canon’s advanced data verification hardware/ software kit consists of a USB card reader/ writer, a dedicated

Original Data Security

Card, and software to be installed on a

Windows computer. The system can verify the originality and integrity of image data. It can also identify specific data elements (image pixels, EXIF text, GPS info, etc.) that have been altered.

A feature in this version is encryption capability.***

Photographers can encrypt their image files to prevent unauthorized viewing or wireless theft. Encrypted images can be viewed only on personal computers on which the necessary OSK-E3 decoding engine has been installed.

Dust Delete Function

By photographing a plain white card at infinity focus, the photographer can acquire data identifying the position of any dust particles on the sensor surface. This data is appended to the image file and can be used by Digital Photo Professional software to automatically erase dust spots. This unique system can be a tremendous time saver, especially for professional photographers who must shoot (and change lenses) in dusty environments. It greatly reduces time spent at the computer touching up images.

Customer, employee and image information are maintained in a central database for easy access and seamless integration. At every step along the way, Canon

Studio Solution gives you full control while enabling you to build a seamlessly integrated, highly efficient business. Whether you are a one-person studio running the software on a single laptop computer or a larger enterprise with multiple employees and networked workstations, the workflow is streamlined, easy-to-use and professional, reducing business-related costs while maximizing sales and profit potential. Because the software is serv-

Single/Onsite Studios Small Studios

Large Studios er-based, network-friendly and completely scalable, it will work with you as your business grows… enabling you to focus on what’s truly important: your photography.

Reception & Management

Because a high-powered relational SQL database engine is at the heart of Studio

Solution, your important customer information is permanently linked to pertinent image, employee and calendar data for easy retrieval and reporting. In addition to basic contact information, the software can also keep track of your customers’ birthdays, and can link family members. A powerful Calendar tool provides numerous useful views of your studio’s schedule, while the automatic confirmation call reminder feature makes a calendar entry one day prior to the shoot so that your staff can contact customers to minimize no-shows.

Because Studio Solution keeps track of inventory and sales in addition to customer and employee data, it can generate powerful reports that you can use to analyze and streamline your business. Studio Solution also gives you, as system administrator, complete power over rights and permissions based on the roles you assign to your staff members. In this manner, you can fully control the studio workflow in a networked environment, assigning functionality as required for specific staff responsibilities.

Shooting

Studio Solution enables direct tethered USB capture from your Canon EOS Digital

SLR, enabling Live View shooting via a computer monitor, or utilize a completely wireless workflow using a Canon Wireless

File Transmitter (operating in FTP server mode) on the camera with a WiFi connection.

You can also transfer image files from the camera by setting up a

“hot folder” on your computer or network. Images captured on-location are easily imported into the Studio

Solution library using a memory card reader. Imported images are automatically cataloged into the correct folder designated for the customer and job and become an integral part of your database. Studio

Solution can then easily archive to hard drives, RAID arrays, servers or recordable media.

Sales and Presentation

Studio Solution’s powerful sales presentation tools allow you to convert your images into a profitable order of products and services. Whether in front of a monitor or viewed with a Canon REALiS projector, slide shows, easily and automatically created in

Studio Solution, present your images in the best possible light — in high resolution and with brilliant, accurate color. You can even add background music to enhance the viewing experience.

Studio Solution can even show how your customer’s prints will look on different media, like on canvas or a matte surface, and how prints of different sizes might look in a room setting over a sofa or fireplace.

Studio Solution includes a comprehensive collection of attractive borders and templates that you can easily add to your images. You can simply choose one of the many supplied borders or templates, or you can use the Border

Workshop, where you can start with an existing border, modify it as desired, then save it to the library for future reuse. Combinations of templates and backgrounds can be used to create value-added items, like sports trading cards or calendars, and multipurpose the captured images.

If you shoot your subjects in front of a green or blue screen, you can use Studio Solution’s built-in chroma-keying features to quickly and easily add different backgrounds to your shots.

Retouch

Most image adjustments and retouching, if required, are easily accomplished within

Studio Solution using the Photo Workshop and Retouch

Workshop tools, where selective and global retouching and cropping can be applied manually or automatically to repair blemishes, red eye and more.

You, or a member of your staff, can perform the most frequently needed corrections and enhancements — including background dropout on green screen shots — simply and without ever leaving the Studio Solution environment. If more complex work is needed, Studio Solution makes it easy to perform more advanced adjustments via a quick roundtrip visit to and from Adobe Photoshop ®

(available separately) without ever removing the image from your customer’s database.

Delivery

As you add products, services and various packages into the integrated shopping cart,

Studio Solution then fully automates the ordering and delivery process for you as well. When using multiple printers, load sharing algorithms are used to make sure all available printers are used in the most efficient manner, avoiding long print job queues whenever possible, and automatically routing specialized orders to the appropriate device. Using Canon imagePROGRAF printers, Studio

Solution even adds print nesting capability to effectively minimize the waste of paper, and maximize your profits.

Built-in support for and routing to outside output service providers enable you to produce and sell products you cannot fulfill in-house. Studio Solution can then automatically generate and print detailed invoices that include all packages and additional products and services ordered, plus taxes and shipping costs as appropriate.

Studio Solution’s easy and intuitive interface simplifies staff training requirements, and the cohesive modules lead you naturally and effortlessly from one step to the next, enabling you to manage a highly efficient, automated, profitable studio. And to ensure fast solutions if a problem does arise, live customer support is available toll-free. No matter the photographic enterprise, Studio Solution is tailor- made to streamline business so that photographers can focus on what they do best: taking pictures.
