The camera also incorporates the Highlight Tone Priority and High-ISO Noise Reduction functions (previously found only on Canon's Professional Digital SLRs) and the camera is equipped with Canon's Auto Lighting Optimizer technology, which corrects image brightness and contrast automatically to prevent underexposure with backlit scenes.
The EOS Rebel XS is also fast - capable of continuously capturing 3 frames per second for bursts of over 500 images. The faster frame rates and finer focusing capabilities of the Rebel XS together with its impressive image burst rate will help photo enthusiasts capture split second action at just the right moment.
