The Canon EOS Kiss 5 is the addition to the company’s best-selling EOS Kiss series of affordable AF SLR cameras. Featuring a high-speed-processing microcomputer and new algorithms, the new camera achieves not only the fastest AF speed in its class, but also vastly improved predictive AF performance when shooting moving objects. Innovatively designed, the new EOS Kiss 5 redefines the image of SLR cameras with an elegant incandescent-silver and metallic-gray exterior finish, and a compact (130 x 88 x 64mm), lightweight (365g) body featuring an ergonomic handgrip for maximum user comfort and functional ease. Enhancing utility, the rear panel of the new model incorporates a large-size (30 x 30mm) LCD panel with backlight, enabling camera settings to be seen clearly even in dark conditions. Moreover, all main operating controls are grouped together on the right side of the camera to enable the operation of most functions with one hand.

| Focusing modes |
1. Autofocus One of the following two AF modes is set automatically depending on the picture-taking mode. The shutter does not release until focus is achieved. a. One-Shot AF: Autofocus locks when focusing is achieved. b. Predictive AI Servo AF: Continuously tracks subject movement and achieves focus before the exposure starts. c. AI Focus AF for automatic switching between One-Shot AF and predictive AF for moving subjects. 2. Manual Focus Setting the lens’ focus mode switch to MF enables manual focusing with the focusing ring. |
|
| Focusing Point Selection | The focusing point can be selected by camera(Automatic) or by user(Manual). | |
| Focus Operation | Autofocus is activated by pressing the shutter button halfway. | |
| AF-assist light | Automatically emitted when necessary and aimed at the area covered by the active focus point. | |
