The EOS-3 incorporates the world's first area AF system, a high precision focusing system, higher speed eye-control and improved high-speed focus tracking. Such technology combined with many of the features of the EOS- 1N and, of course compatibility with the extensive range of over 50 EF lenses and accessories, make the EOS 3 the perfect choice for advanced amateurs and professionals alike. The EOS 3 design is based on that of the EOS 1N - sturdy with easily accessible controls for quick and easy execution of camera operations. A range of accessories developed specifically for the EOS 3, including a new Speedlite flash, is being launched at the same time.
Features
Full-featured professional SLR with exclusive Canon EOS technology.
45-point Area AF, 21-zone Evaluative Metering & High-Speed Eye Controlled Focus.
Ultra-high-speed predictive AF up to 7 fps with optional Power Drive Booster PB-E2.
Sophisticated E-TTL flash exposure system with optional EX-series Speedlites, including wireless flash with Speedlite 550EX and Speedlite Transmitter ST-E2.
18 Custom Functions including mirror lock and silent rewind.
Fully compatible with EF Lenses and EOS Speedlites.
Other new accessories include Date Back DB-E2, Timer Remote Controller TC-80N3, and additional N3-series remote control devices.

Exposure Control
Metering modes: TTL max. aperture metering with a 21-zone silicon photocell.
Evaluative metering (linkable to any point)
Partial metering (approx. 8.5% of viewfinder at center)
Center spot metering (approx. 2.4% of viewfinder at center)
Spot metering (linked to focusing point at approx. 2.4% of viewfinder) * During continuous shooting with metering modes (3) and (4), the first shot is metered in real time and the meter reading is locked (AE lock) for subsequent shots in the same burst.
Shutter speed-priority AE (in 1/3, 1/2 or full stops, safety shift enable with Custom Function),
Aperture-priority AE (in 1/3, 1/2 or full stops, safety shift enabled with Custom Function),

Metering Range: EV 0-20 (at 20°C/68°F with 50mm f/1.4 lens, ISO 100)
ISO film speed range: ISO 6-6400 (Set automatically with DX-coded film at ISO 25-5000.)
Exposure compensation:
Auto exposure bracketing (AEB): +/- 3 stops in 1/3-stop increments. Standard exposure, underexposure, and overexposure sequence. Repeated bracketing enabled according to current film advance mode. With self-timer, all three bracketed shots are taken in the continuous shooting mode regardless of the film advance mode.
Manual exposure compensation: +/- 3 stops in 1/3-stop increments set with the Quick Control Dial or exposure compensation button and Main Dial.
AEB and manual exposure compensation can be set together.
AE Lock:
Auto AE lock: Operates in One-Shot AF mode with evaluative metering when focus is achieved.
Manual AE lock: AE lock button activates AE lock in all metering modes. Multiple exposures: Max. 9 multiple exposures. Cancels automatically after all multiple exposures are taken. (Cancelable and resettable at any time.)
AF
Type: TTL-AREA-SIR with a CMOS sensor
Focusing points: Area AF with 45 focusing points (Custom Function No. 13 can limit this to 11)
AF working range: EV 0-18 (at ISO 100)
Focusing modes:
One-Shot AF: Autofocus stops when focus is achieved. AF lock enabled. Shutter releases only when focus is achieved.
Predictive AF with Al Servo AF: Tracks subject movement up to the start of exposure. Predictive AF enabled. The shutter can be released at anytime regardless of focus (predictive AF control takes effect during continuous shooting), no in-focus indicator (blinks at 8 Hz only if AF fails).
Manual focusing: Enabled with the focusing ring when the lens focus mode switch is set to MF (or M).
Full- time manual focusing: Enabled with the electronic focusing ring during continuous shooting (except during film exposure).
In- focus indicator: Lights in viewfinder and beeps. (Beeper can be disabled.)
Focusing point selection:
Automatic selection: Focusing point camera-selected.
Manual selection: Focusing point manually-selected.
Eye Controlled Focus: Focusing point eye-selected.
AF focusing point indicator: Superimposed focusing point in viewfinder.
AF-assist beam: Emitted automatically by the attached EOS Speedlite when necessary.
Shutter
Type: Vertical-travel, focal-plane shutter with all speeds electronically-controlled.
Shutter speeds: 30 to 1/8000 sec. in 1/3-stops, X-sync at 1/200 sec.
Self-timer: Electronically-contolled with 10-sec. or 2-sec. delay. Lamp blinks (at 2 Hz, then at 8 Hz for the remaining two sec.). Self-timer countdown on LCD panel. Self-timer cancelable by turning the main switch to L.
Film Transport
Film loading: Automatic loading with a sprocketless system. After film is loaded and the back is closed, it advances to frame 1 automatically, taking about 1 sec.
