Welcome to the World of the EOS-1 N, The Flagship Camera of the EOS Series
2
Thank you for selecting a Canon EOS camera.
Thousands of professional photographers throughout the world are devot-
ed users of the EOS-1 -- a flexible, high-precision tool responsible for
recording on film countless decisive moments and masterpieces of photo-
graphic art. The EOS-1 N continues the EOS-1 tradition and extends the
state of the art even further by combining all of the superb features of the
EOS-1 with several new functions and mechanisms requested by EOS-1

focusing points for wide-area coverage.
2. Improved focus prediction and object tracking performance.

Booster E1).
4. Choice of five metering patterns, including 16-zone evaluative, cen-
ter-weighted average, 9% partial, 3.5% spot metering linked to
each focusing point, and 2.3% fine spot metering.
5. Enhanced multiple-zone TTL flash sensor plus built-in flash expo-
sure compensation control up to
±3 steps in 1/3-step increments.
6. Silent drive mechanism for super-quiet film rewinding.

operational flexibility, letting you customize many facets of the cam-
era's operation to match your shooting style. New custom functions
include:
· Choice of silent or high-speed rewind

The EOS-1 N family consists of the following three models in addition to
the standard model:
· EOS-1 N DP:
This model combines the BP-E1* AA-size battery pack with the
EOS-1 N, allowing the user to switch between the standard
2CR5 lithium battery or AA-size batteries depending on the
shooting situation. (Refer to page 93.)
· EOS-1 N HS:
This model combines the Power Drive Booster E1* with the
EOS-1 N, providing high-speed continuous shooting and
increased shooting capacity. (Refer to page 96.)
· EOS-1 N RS**: This model features a non-moving, hard-coated new pellicle mirror
which provides non-interrupted viewing through the viewfinder and
rapid-fire continuous shooting at 10 frames/sec. Moreover, the
camera's release time lag (the time between when the shutter but-
ton is pressed and when the exposure occurs) is reduced to a
mere 0.006 sec. (Refer to page 100.)
* BP-E1 and Power Drive Booster E1 must be purchased separately in North America.
**The EOS-1 N RS is scheduled for availability in Spring 1995.
