Technical Jargon – What Does It All Mean?
Eos – Stands For Electro Optical System.
Slr – Stands For Single Lens Reflex: Means The Camera Has One Lens That Is Used For Both Composing The Frame And Capturing The Image To Memory.
Ef-S – Are Designed Specifically For Cameras With An Aps-Format Sensor, Such As The Canon 1100D, 600D, Etc. Cameras That Support The Canon Ef-S Lens Mount Can Also Take The Canon Ef Lens Mount. The ‘S’ Stands For ‘Short Back Focus’, Which Means That The Rear Element Of The Lens Is Closer To The Image Sensor.
Aps-C – A Type Of Digital Camera Sensor With An Integral X1.6 Magnification Factor. This Means That For All Lenses (Canon, Sigma & Tamron) You Have To X The Focal Length Of Your Lens By The Crop Factor, Which Is 1.6 (Nikon 1.5). For Example – Canon 50Mm X 1.6 = 80Mm. For A Camera With A Cropped Sensor The Field Of View You Actually Get Is 80Mm.
Cmos – Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor – A Type Of Image Sensor Used In Many Digital Cameras
