Equipped with a grip that allows a steady hold on the camera, an optical viewfinder that enables the quick capture of fleeting moments, and a main dial for quick function switching, the EOS 3000D offers new camera users the quintessential DSLR experience. The 18megapixel APS-C-size CMOS sensor is about 25 times larger than the sensor used in smartphone cameras. This allows it to capture more light and detail in images, and also contributes to the ability to achieve a beautiful background blur.
