THE
EOS CONCEPT: ELECTRO-OPTICAL SYSTEMS
When
Canon
introduced
the
EOS
650
and
620
in
early
1987,
this
new
camera
system
represented
a
departure
from
the
technology
of
the
past,
with
a
view
toward
new
capabilities,
accuracy
and
precision,
and
potential
for
system
development.
While
these
two
models
were
clearly
designed
for
the
amateur
market,
they
also
gave
a
clear
indication
of
future
possibilities.
The
new
EF
mount
system,
with
its
improved
strength
over
the
FD
mount
and
precision
of
electronic
aperture
control
was
a
breakthrough
in
lens
design.
Other
features
such
as
the
Evaluative
metering
system,
A-TTL
flash,
and
Depth
of
Field
AE
control
showed
how
technology
could
be
successfully
used
to
make
the
photographer's
job
easier,
and
actually
to
take
better
photographs.
Even
with
these
features,
though,
neither
camera
was
appropriate
for
daily
professional
use.
However,
development
of
lenses
such
as
the
superb
EF 300mm
f/2.8L
and
600mm

f/4.0L,

and
later
the
EF
200mm
f/1.8L,
indicated
that
plans
were
under
way
within
Canon's
development
group
for
a
future
professional
camera.
In
early
1989,
the
EOS
630
gave
another
indication
of
the
direction
in
which
Canon
was
heading.
By
upgrading
its
focus
tracking
ability
with
"predictive
focus,
"and
speeding
up
its
motor
drive
to
5
frames
per
second,
it
became
a
camera
with
features
much
more
attractive
to
the
professional.
Most
significant
though,
were
the
changes
incorporated
into
the
the
camera
to
make
it
work
more
easily
in
a
professional
environment.
Based
on
input
from
CPS
members
here
in
the
United
States,
and
other
pro
users
around
the
world,
Canon's
engineers
were
able
to
provide
small
touches
that
significantly
improved
performance.
Particularly
interesting
was
the
Custom
Function
control
system
that
lets
the
photographer
set
up
basic
camera
functions
for
each
particular
kind
of
shooting
situation.
But
the
EOS
630
was
still
not
Canon's
professional
camera.
THE
EOS-l:
CANON'S PROFESSIONAL
AUTOFOCUS
CAMERA
The
EOS-1
is
the
pinnacle
of
the
design
effort
that
began
nearly
five
years
ago.
Created
especially
for
the
demanding
professional,
the
EOS-1
introduces
a
new
standard
against
which
all
other
cameras
will
be
compared.
Innovative
features
that
combine
automatic
operation
with
sophisticated
manual
control
put
you
in
command.
Designed
for
improved
operability
and
ease
of
use,
the
EOS-1
allows
you
to
concentrate
on
composition
and
capturing
the
decisive
moment.
