Other Features
Extremely fast and sophisticated focusing system, the AF system is activated by the grip sensor to reduce focusing time as well as to continuously display a sharp image on the monitors. The A1 has a groundbreaking Anti-Shake Function that minimizes handheld camera shake to provide the sharpest images possible. This is very useful when shooting at long focal lengths or in low light conditions without a tripod, Anti-Shake allows the camera to be handheld with shutter speeds eight times longer than usual. The A1 is compatible with the 2500 D, 3600 HS D, 5600 HS D flashes and a host of other Dimage accessories, which integrates it seamlessly into an already expansive digital system.
