V. SOFTWARE PACKAGE, COMPATIBILITY AND SUPPORT

Extensive Software Package

The EOS 5D Digital SLR will be packaged with the EOS Digital Solution Disk, Ver. 11, which includes ZoomBrowser EX 5.5, ImageBrowser 5.5, EOS Capture 1.5 (Windows/ Macintosh), PhotoStitch 3.1 (Windows/Macintosh) and a set of PTP, WIA and TWAIN Drivers (Windows). At no extra cost, the camera will also come with Digital Photo Professional, Ver. 2.0, an immensely useful tool for professional digital workflow.

Enhanced PictBridge Functions

New “Contact” Printing

When used in conjunction with PictBridge compatible third-party printers, Canon cameras can print directly without a computer. Now, the collaboration between Canon PIXMA photo printers and Canon cameras has been extended so that, beginning with Canon’s exceptional Fall 2005 line of PictBridge compatible models, useful new functions will be available. First,

there’s Contact Printing, featuring easy-to-see thumbnail images, with a simulated 35mm filmstrip background. Each frame measures 36mm x 24mm, exactly the size of contact prints made from 35mm film, in a five-rows-of-seven 35-image layout.

Two New Layouts With Exif Data

The second new option is a 20-image layout with Exif shooting information printed next to each frame: camera model, lens model, extender usage, shooting mode, shutter speed, aperture setting, exposure compensa-

tion (not shown if no compensation is used), ISO, white balance, file number and date. This layout and the contact

sheet offer a useful solution to the problem of archiving and retrieving digital images. A third new choice makes a single print with Exif information printed underneath.
