General Information
1) Image recording
(1) Large, single-plate CMOS sensor with approx. 8.20

megapixels
The newly-developed CMOS sensor has approx.
8.20 effective megapixels and an picture size of 22.5
mm × 15.0 mm. (The focal length conversion factor
is 1.6×.)
(2) DIGIC II imaging engine Fig. 001 CMOS sensor (actual size)
DIGIC II imaging engine for high-precision and

(Approx.)
(3) Better RAW+JPEG file handling
Large 8.20 megapixels
With the EOS 10D, dedicated software was
Medium 4.3 megapixels
required to extract the JPEG file embedded in the Small 2.0 megapixels
RAW file. But with the EOS 20D, the RAW and JPEG RAW 8.20 megapixels
images are saved as separate files in the CF card as
with the EOS-1D.
Also, as shown in Fig. 002, you can use the
menu's [Recording quality] to select the RAW+JPEG
option directly.
As with the EOS-1D Mark II, RAW files use a new
format indicated by the CR2 file extension.
(4) Complies to DCF 2.0 and Exif 2.21 supporting Adobe Fig. 002 Recording quality
RGB selection screen
The camera complies to DCF 2.0 and Exif 2.21, updated to support Adobe
RGB. When you use software compatible with Exif 2.21, images captured
with the EOS 20D will open automatically in the Adobe RGB color space.
Also, when you use a printer which complies to Exif 2.21, the printer will
suitably adjust the color saturation of the print.
(5) Faster writing to CF card

With DIGIC II and an improved CF card writing process, data writing is
about 3.5 times faster* than with the EOS 10D.
* With a Canon 512 MB (Super High-speed) CF card
2) Image Processing
(1) White balance feature

• White balance correction
This is a digital color filter that works like an LB
(light balancing) filter or cc (color compensating)
filter.
Both 1. Blue/amber bias and 2. Magenta/green
bias can be set up to ±9 levels.
Fig. 003 WB correction/BKT screen
6
General Information
• White balance bracketing (WB-BKT)

In addition to the EOS 10D's blue/amber bias correction, the EOS 20D
provides the magenta/green bias adjustment that works like a cc (color
compensating) filter. As with the EOS 10D, three images are generated with
one shot. WB-BKT can also be used in combination with white balance
correction.
• Auto/Preset white balance
With DIGIC II, AWB is more stable at high ISO speeds and the color
temperature information is sent when the built-in flash or SL580EX is fired.
As a result, the flash white balance and AWB performance with flash in
dark environments are improved.
(2) Processing parameters

• Parameter 1 for vivid and sharp images
In addition to the EOS DIGITAL REBEL/EOS
300D DIGITAL's Parameter 1, the EOS 20D also
has the Parameter 2 which is the EOS 10D's
standard setting. Parameter 1 is set
automatically in Basic Zone modes. In Creative
Zone modes, Parameter 1 or 2 can be selected.
• Monochrome mode Fig. 004 Parameter 1 settings
In addition to Parameter 1 and 2 and Set 1, 2,
and 3, there is a new Monochrome mode. You
can set the contrast and sharpness up to 5
levels, filter effects (none, yellow, orange, red,
green), and toning (none, sepia, blue, purple,
green).

Fig. 005 Filter effects and toning sample
7
General Information
Note that one positive (+) level of the Sharpness setting is equal to twice the
sharpness level of the EOS 10D. This produces more crisp and clear
images.
(3) ISO Speed

• ISO speed setting range
Like the EOS 10D, the EOS 20D's ISO speed range is ISO 100, 200, 400,
800, 1600, and H: 3200. Note that the ISO speed extension is now set with
a Custom Function (C.Fn-08) instead of with the menu.
• ISO auto
The basic ISO auto setting has been changed to ISO 400. This obtains
good image quality and avoids camera shake. The background scene behind
the subject in a flash photo will also look brighter.
(4) Noise reduction

The EOS 20D already obtains better image quality than with the EOS 10D.
To improve image quality of long exposures even more, a Custom Function
for long exposure noise reduction is provided. When C.Fn-02-1 is set, noise
reduction processing will be executed for exposures 1 sec. or longer. Note that
the noise reduction processing will take the same time as the exposure time.
3) Shooting Functions
(1) Autofocus
• AF sensor
The camera has a newly-developed, 9-point AF
sensor (CMOS). The center AF point is a high-
precision, cross-type sensor sensitive to f/2.8 lenses
(vertical line-sensitive at f/2.8, vertical line-sensitive at
f/5.6, and horizontal line-sensitive at f/2.8). The eight
other AF points are sensitive to f/5.6.
Since each AF point is optimized for the imaging
element size, the AF point layout is more inward than Fig. 006 AF sensor
the EOS 10D's. However, the nine AF points
make the subject coverage larger. Also, as shown
in Fig. 007, there are four AF points which are

near a golden section point.* They help to

improve the composing of the shot.

* Golden section: Picture composition deemed to have the

most aesthetic and stable aspect ratio (1:1.1618). When the
picture is divided into nine sections, the four intersections
all have a vertical : horizontal aspect ratio of 1:1.5. If you Fig. 007 point positions
use one of the four AF points close to a golden section point
to cover the subject, the composition will look more balanced.
Thanks to the new AF sensor, focusing in low light has improved by 1
stop compared to the EOS 10D. The brightness range required for focusing
is now EV -0.5 to 18.
The AF speed is faster than the EOS 10D's. The predictive AF
8
General Information
performance is about the same as the EOS 10D's. With an EF 300mm

f/2.8L IS USM lens, it can focus track a subject approaching at a speed of
up to 50 kph up to about 8 meters away.
• AF point selection
The AF point is manually selected with the Multi-
controller on the back of the camera as shown in Fig. 008.
The Multi-controller can be pushed in eight directions as
well as down at the center. First press the AF point
selector, then operate the Multi-controller as shown in Fig.
009. If you push the Multi-controller in the direction of the
current AF point, it will switch to automatic AF point
selection. You can also use the Main Dial/Quick Fig. 008 Multi-controller
Control Dial to select the AF point (the looping sequence
is different from previous EOS D-SLRs).
Also, C.Fn-13-1/2 enables you to select the AF point directly with the
Multi-controller or dial without having to first press the AF point selector.
Since the Multi-controller enables a quick and direct way to select the AF
point, the Assist button has been eliminated.

(2) Drive
• Continuous shooting speed
Thanks to the CMOS sensor's faster reading of Table 004 Continuous Shooting Speed
signals, a high-speed mirror driving system, and (Max. shots/sec.)
DIGIC II, the maximum continuous shooting ONE SHOT / MF 5.0
speed is 5 shots/sec. despite having more USM 5.0

9
General Information
(3) Shutter
The camera has a newly-developed, APS-C-dedicated,
compact, high-speed shutter. With shorter shutter blade
edges, the shutter curtain speed is faster. This enables a
top shutter speed of 1/8000 sec. and X-sync at 1/250
sec. The shutter durability also surpasses that of the
EOS 10D (about 20).
(4) Exposure control Fig. 010 Shutter unit

The shooting modes, basic features, and metering
sensor are the same as the EOS 10D's. The default increment for the
exposure setting has been changed to 1/3 stop. (This can be changed to 1/2
stop with C.Fn-06-1.)
Fig. 011 Mode Dial Fig. 012 Metering sensor Fig. 013 Metering zones
(5) Viewfinder
Improved eyepiece optics enable a viewfinder magnification of 0.9x. The
focusing screen is a Precision Matte screen developed to make manual
focusing easier. The differences between the Precision Matte screen, the New
Laser Matte screen found in the EOS 10D, and the Laser Matte screen found
in the EOS-1D are shown below.
[Focusing ease]: New Laser Matte < EOS 20D < Laser Matte
[Viewfinder brightness]: New Laser Matte > EOS 20D > Laser Matte
The white balance correction indicator has been added to the viewfinder
information display.
(6) Built-in flash

When the built-in flash or an EX-series
Speedlite is used, E-TTL II autoflash takes
effect for high-precision and stable flash
exposures.
Thanks to an improved fresnel lens, the
flash coverage matches the 17mm focal length
even when the Guide No. (GNo. 13, ISO Fig. 014 Built-in flash
100 in meters) remains the same as before.
Also, the built-in flash now uses a pop-up arm. The distance between the
optical axis and the center of the built-in flash is 18.6 mm longer than with
the EOS 10D. This reduces the incidence of red eye and reduces the chances
of the lens obstructing the flash coverage.

General Information
(7) Compatibility with EF-S lenses

Since the camera has the same mechanism as the EOS DIGITAL
REBEL/EOS 300D DIGITAL, it is compatible with EF-S lenses.
4) Image playback
• Single image
While a single image is displayed, pressing the
Info button will now display the image without
the information as shown in Fig. 015.

(no image information)
(1) Awesome-looking for an aura of high performance
Even though the EOS 20D boasts better
image quality and more high-end features
than the EOS 10D, it is smaller and lighter.
The width, height, and depth are
respectively 5.7 mm, 2 mm, and 3.5 mm
shorter than the EOS 10D. And the weight
is 105g lighter. If you look at the front of the
camera, the built-in flash looks more
compact. Also, the front cover surrounding
the lens mount has gentle curves to give a
compact and high-performance image as
well as a strong, high-end look.
Despite the smaller size, the grip surface
is still ample to provide excellent grip and
holding comfort. The camera also retains
the EOS 10D's "finger cut" shape around
the shutter button to make pressing the Fig. 016 Size comparison
shutter button comfortable.
(2) Refined interface--Multi-controller provided

The operation ease of EOS is retained. The Multi-controller is a new camera
control that can be pushed in 8 directions and at the center. It is for selecting
the AF point, magnifying the image during playback, and moving the
trimming outline for direct printing. It is a great improvement for operation
ease.
(3) Highly rigid magnesium-alloy body

Being well-received on the EOS 10D, the magnesium-alloy body has been
retained. The refined look and feel, high image quality, and many features
convey a high level of assurance to the user. The Canon logo relief with a
white filling adds to the camera's fine detail, making it very apt for a high-end
digital AF SLR. It spreads and promotes the high quality of the Canon brand.

General Information
6) Startup time
Thanks to the DIGIC II, an improved CMOS sensor, a revamped startup

sequence, etc., the startup time has been shortened to approx. 0.2 sec. (EOS
10D's startup time: Approx. 2.2 sec.)
When Power Switch is set from Off to On, and startup is completed as SW-1 is
On (ready to shoot).
7) Operation ease
The camera retains the basic operation ease of the EOS

10D and the priority on shooting. The major differences in
the operation ease are as follows:
(1) Multi-controller provided
Note: Used for selecting the AF point, setting the WB correction/BKT, and
moving the outline box for image trimming during direct printing.
(2) Power switch integrated with Quick Control Dial ON
switch Fig. 017 Power switch
Note: Three positions: 1. Power OFF, 2. Power ON and Quick Control Dial OFF, 3. Power ON and
Quick Control Dial ON.
(3) Assist button eliminated.
(4) Scroll orientation switch button eliminated
8) Menu functions
The basic operation method (Quick Control Dial and

Main Dial) is the same as the EOS 10D's scrolling
system.
The EOS 20D has the tab (icon + color) of the current
menu displayed on the upper left of the screen. Also,
the upper right indicates what happens when you press
the JUMP button. This is newly added.
The function that prevents shutter release when there Fig. 018 Menu screen (Shooting)

10) Camera direct printing
As with the EOS 10D, the EOS 20D is compatible with PictBridge, CP Direct,
and Bubble Jet Direct. It also enables DPOF direct printing. The basic
specifications of direct printing are the same as the EOS-1D Mark II's. And with
the EOS 20D, improved data transmission architecture enabled faster printing
with Canon BJ printers using PictBridge direct print function.
11) Interface
Since DIGIC II has been incorporated, the camera has USB 2.0 Hi-Speed to
enable high-speed image transfers from the camera to a personal computer.
12) Power source and shooting capacity
The camera can be powered by Battery Pack BP-511A/514/511/512. The EOS

20D's battery grip can use BP-511A/514/511/512 or size-AA batteries.
With a fully-charged BP-511A, the EOS 20D can take approx. 1,000 shots at
20ºC or 750 shots at 0ºC with no flash.
The date/clock backup battery has been switched to CR2016. The backup

1. TECHNICAL INFORMATION
1.1 Image sensor - CMOS sensor
1) Overview
The large CMOS sensor developed and manufactured by Canon has enabled
the camera to attain the top overall performance in its class. It leads in all the
major performance categories such as high resolution (8.20 effective
megapixels), wide ISO speed range (ISO 100-1600, plus 3200), low noise (less
than the EOS 10D), and high-speed signal reading (5 shots/sec.).

2) Wide ISO speed range
With the new technologies explained below, the camera has the same ISO
speed range as the EOS 10D's even though the pixel size is 6.4 × 6.4 µm.
(1) High ISO speeds

A Canon-developed color filter and on-chip microlens are incorporated. By
using a large microlens (the gap between microlenses is about half that of the
EOS 10D), the light-gathering efficiency is enhanced. Also, the photodiode
construction is newly developed and optimized for the CMOS sensor to
increase the sensitivity. Moreover, with the noise-reduction technology
explained in 3), an excellent S/N performance is obtained to provide ISO
1600.

EOS-1D Mark II 8.2 × 8.2µm 50 • 100 - 1600 • 3200
dynamic range at low ISO speeds is
EOS-1Ds 8.8 × 8.8µm 50 • 100 - 1250
therefore improved. Thus, even
EOS-1D 11.5 × 11.5µm 100 • 200 - 1600 • 3200
though the camera's pixel size of
6.4. × 6.4 mm is smaller than the
EOS 10D's pixel size, the same ISO
100 speed as the EOS 10D can be
attained.
3) Low noise
Fixed-pattern noise and random noise which used to be a problem with CMOS
sensors have been effectively suppressed as EOS digital technology advanced.
Today, Canon's ultra low-noise CMOS sensor can even photograph the heavens
in the night sky with very low noise.
The EOS 20D suppresses noise even further with its CMOS sensor. The
random noise generated by the pixel's amp is reduced thanks to the improved
device. And the second-generation, on-chip, noise-filtering circuit effectively
eliminates random noise and fixed-pattern noise.
4) High-speed, 4-channel reading
While based on the EOS 10D's 2-channel reading, more channels and faster
speed have been incorporated in the EOS 20D. With one-line and 4-channel
reading and a low-noise, high-speed output amp, high-speed signal reading
enabling a continuous shooting speed of 5 shots/sec. is attained.
4-channel reading 2-channel reading
Fig. 003 Four-channel reading

5) Saving power
To minimize the increase in power consumption due to the high-speed, 4-

channel reading, the output amp's power consumption is kept to an absolute
minimum.
Also, as with the EOS 10D and EOS-1Ds during long exposures, power to the
output amp is cut off. And as with the EOS-1D Mark II, the circuit-driving
standard current is also cut off. Less power is thereby consumed.
6) Infrared-blocking, low-pass filter
The EOS 20D's infrared-blocking, low-pass Dichroic mirror

filter has the same construction as the EOS (Reflects infrared rays)
Infrared-absorbing glass
10D's filter with infrared-absorbing glass and
three crystal plates having a different optical
axis.
The infrared-blocking, low-pass filter has a
dichroic mirror made of a dielectric, multi-layer CMOS
coating (in front of the low-pass filter) that sensor
deflects light which has a wide infrared
wavelength. It also has an infrared-absorbing
glass layer to absorb near-infrared wavelengths
in the visible spectrum. This hybrid
construction consisting of deflecting and Low-pass filter
(Separates image in
absorbing layers reduces the red ghosting vertical direction)
caused by sensor reflections and image fogging. Phaser layer
The low-pass filter consists of two crystal (Converts linear polarized
light into circular polarized
monocrystal plates that separate the subject light)
image into four horizontal and vertical Low-pass filter
directions. In-between these two plates is a (Separates image in horizontal
direction)
phase plate (crystal monocrystal plate) that
converts the linear polarized light into circular Fig. 004 Cross section of infrared cut, low-
pass filter
polarized light. The first crystalline plate
separates the image into two images horizontally. The light flux that becomes
the orthogonal linear polarized light is converted into circular polarized light by
the phase plate. The second crystal plate separates the images vertically,
resulting in four images square. The image separation in the horizontal and
vertical directions is optimized for the sensor pitch so that false colors caused by
minute horizontal and vertical lines are reduced.

2) Recording quality
(1) Recording quality selection

The RAW+JPEG recording quality option (6
choices) can now be selected with the menu.
(2) RAW+JPEG simultaneous recording

As with the EOS-1D, the RAW and JPEG images
can now be saved as separate image files in the
CF card. The file No. is also the same and
recorded in the same folder. Fig. 006 Recording quality selection screen

* "Max. capacity" applies to a 256 MB CF card.
* The file size and maximum capacity varies depending on the subject, shooting mode, ISO speed, processing
parameters, etc.
(3) New RAW format

The EOS 20D incorporates the same new RAW format featured in Canon
digital cameras from the EOS-1D Mark II onward. The file extension is .CR2
(Canon Raw 2nd edition). The RAW data records the white balance (preset,
correction, bracketing information), processing parameters, and other
settings. When you use a personal computer to edit the image, all these
settings will take effect. (Since it is raw data, you can edit the image freely
with image-editing software.)
(4) DCF Version 2.0 / Exif Version 2.21

The camera complies to DCF 2.0 (revised to support Adobe RGB) and Exif
2.21. Images taken in Adobe RGB will have the Adobe RGB color space
information (not ICC profile) appended to the Exif information. Therefore,
applications and devices compatible with DCF 2.0 and Exif 2.21 will be able
to handle Adobe RGB in the same way as sRGB. You need not worry about
the color space anymore.
Note that the file name of images taken with Adobe RGB will start with an
underbar (_) as required by DCF 2.0 and Exif 2.21.
Note: Although RAW does not comply to DCF, the file name will start with an underbar as with
JPEG images. When you use the provided software to edit the RAW image and save it as a
JPEG or TIFF file, the Adobe RGB profile will be appended to the image.
3) Color space
With the [Color space] menu, you can select [sRGB] or [Adobe RGB]. With the
EOS 10D, if you selected Adobe RGB, the processing parameter would be set
automatically to Standard (all items set to 0). But with the EOS 20D, even if you
select Adobe RGB, you can still shoot with any processing parameter.
5
4) Processing parameters
(1) Color shooting

The EOS 20D now has the same "Parameter 1" as the EOS DIGITAL
REBEL/EOS 300D DIGITAL to obtain vivid and sharp images. "Parameter 2"
is the same as the EOS 10D's "Standard" setting.
In the Basic Zone modes, "Parameter 1" is set automatically. In the Creative
Zone modes, you can select "Parameter 1 or 2", "Set 1 to 3", or "B/W".
Compared with the EOS 10D, the "Saturation" is "+1" to obtain slightly
higher saturation. Also, the "Sharpness" settings of "+1" and "+2" are now
twice as strong as the EOS 10D's.
(2) Monochrome
The camera's internal digital processing
enables black-and-white images to be produced.
When "B/W" is selected, you can freely set the
"Contrast," "Sharpness," "Filter effects," and
"Toning Effect" parameters.
The "Contrast" and "Sharpness" provides five
settings as with color shooting.
"Filter effects" is the equivalent of using color Fig. 007 Monochrome setting screen
filters to adjust the contrast of B/W photos shot
with film. Through digital processing, the colors in the image matching the
selected filter's color (yellow, orange, red, or green) will look brighter, and the
complementary colors in the hue circle will look darker.
"Toning Effect" adds a color cast (sepia, blue, purple, or green) to the black-
and-white image. It is akin to using chemicals to tone a black-and-white,
silver-halide print. "Toning Effect" is the digital version of this process.
Note 1: When "Filter effects" is set and "Contrast" is set to the plus side, the effect will be more
pronounced.
Note 2: Due to slight differences in the spectral characteristics between the EOS 20D's CMOS
sensor and B/W film covered with a color filter, "Filter effects" might not give the same
result as when you use B/W film with a color filter.

5) White balance
(1) Auto white balance

The auto white balance has been improved from that of the EOS 10D and
EOS DIGITAL REBEL/EOS 300D DIGITAL to make color reproduction more
accurate and natural. Moreover, with DIGIC II and an improved algorithm,
the white balance is now more stable. Also, color reproduction (natural reds)
under low color temperatures such as tungsten has been improved along
with improved skin tone reproduction.
The EOS 20D incorporates a new system that incorporates the flash's color
temperature information (when fired) in the image processing. When the
built-in flash or SL580EX is used and the white balance is set to "AWB" or
"Flash," the white balance will be more accurate for low-light shots.
(2) White balance correction

As with the EOS-1D Mark II, you can
correct the color temperature for the white
balance mode currently set. You can thereby
obtain the same effects as using a color
temperature conversion filter or color White fluorescent light Blackbody
radial locus
correction filter. Each color can be corrected
Tungsten
up to nine levels in single-level increments. Daylight
light bulb
The blue/amber bias and magenta/green

bias corrections (diagonal coordinates) can
also be set in combination.
On the CIE xy color graph, the correction
direction will be as shown in Fig. 009. The
color graph
preset white balance color temperature
Fig. 009 WB correction conceptual diagram
(approx. 2800K - 10000K) is based on the
blackbody radial locus. The EOS 10D could not obtain the proper white
balance for types of lighting that had bad color rendition. But now, since the
magenta/green bias can also be corrected in addition to the blue/amber bias
(with WB-BKT), the camera can match various types of lighting.
With the EOS 20D, the WB correction and WB
bracketing can both be set together on the LCD
monitor. While looking at the point coordinates,
use the Multi-controller to move the point to the
desired coordinates. Then turn the Quick Control
Dial to set the bracketing. On the right of the
screen, "SHIFT" shows the correction information
and "BKT" shows the bracketing information. Fig. 010 WB correction/BKT setting screen
Fig. 011 shows samples of WB correction.
None B: +5 levels A: +5 levels M: +5 levels G: +5 levels

Fig. 011 WB correction samples

(3) White balance bracketing (WB-BKT)

As with the EOS 10D, a single shot results in three bracketed images each
having a different white balance. You can bracket up to ±3 levels in 1-level
increments. The bracketing direction is the same as with white balance
correction. It can be parallel to the blackbody radial locus in the
blue/Standard color temperature/amber direction or intersecting with the
blackbody radial locus in the magenta/standard color temperature/green
direction.
6) Noise reduction
With the EOS 10D, fixed-pattern noise was minimal in long exposures so there
was no noise-reduction feature. But if the exposure was extremely long, noise
spots and a red tinge at the image corners occurred. With the EOS 20D, such
fixed-pattern noise is further reduced by the noise reduction feature (C.Fn-02)
so that the image has less noise.
The noise reduction feature starts working when the exposure is 1 sec. or
longer. The noise-reduction processing takes the same amount of time as the
exposure time. You cannot take another picture until after the noise-reduction
processing is completed.
7) Image recording to CF card
(1) Writing to CF card

Thanks to DIGIC II and an improved card-writing process, the data-writing
speed is approx. 3.5 times faster* than with the EOS 10D.

RAW .CR2
saved under the same file No. in the same Adobe RGB _MG_
folder, as with the EOS-1D. The file name
starts with "IMG_" for both JPEG and RAW images.
8) Startup time
The startup time has been shortened to approx. 0.2 sec.* thanks to the
camera's microcomputer serving as the master (direct switch detection by the
MPU), DIGIC II, an improved system process sequence during startup, a
revamped CF card access method, and shorter startup processing.
* EOS 10D startup time was approx. 2.2 sec.
Note: When Power Switch is set from Off to On, and startup is completed as SW-1 is On (ready to
shoot).

1.3 Compatibility with EF-S lenses

Like the EOS DIGITAL REBEL/EOS 300D DIGITAL,
the camera is compatible with EF-S lenses. EF-S lens
compatibility is enabled by the mirror swing-up
mechanism that moves the
EOS 10D
mirror to the back as the EF-S lens
mirror goes up. The lens mount index

The lens mount index
(white) for EF-S lenses has
been moved to the stainless Fig. 012 Lens mount index

1.4 AF system
A newly-developed, 9-point, CMOS sensor serves as the AF sensor. It is the first
time that an f/2.8-compatible sensor is incorporated in a camera other than the
EOS-1 and EOS-3 series of cameras. It enables higher AF precision.
The AF circuitry and AF algorithm are based on the EOS 10D's, and they
improve the overall AF performance.

When you use a lens brighter than f/2.8, focusing is detected with the
f/2.8 light flux. The base line length of the f/2.8-compatible, horizontal AF
point at the center is about twice as long as the f/5.6-compatible sensor's
for higher focusing precision. (except with EF50mm f/2.5 MACRO and
EF28-80mm f/2.8-4L USM)
(2) Two-line focusing with f/5.6-compatible center vertical sensor
With two lines in a zigzag pattern for focusing, the focus detection becomes
more consistent.
(3) Higher precision of f/5.6-compatible peripheral vertical sensor
For better focusing precision, the base line length of the diagonal and left
and right AF points is 30% longer than the EOS 10D's.
• Improved focusing performance in low light
Compared with the EOS 10D, the performance is better by EV 1 (EV -0.5 to
18).
• Larger area of focus
(1) AF points are at the diagonal position (golden section).
(2) Nine AF points provide a better chance of covering the subject.

2) AF sensor
A newly-developed CMOS sensor serves as the AF sensor. It has a total of 8.84

megapixels. The 0.2x image magnification is the same as the EOS 10D's. The
sensor pitch has been changed from 18 µm to 16 µm. The focus detection
performance is on par or better than the EOS 10D's. The sensor features COB
(Chip on Board), and the approx. 7.0 × 9.6 mm package size is smaller than the
EOS 10D's approx. 8.3 × 9.8 mm.

(1) Configuration of AF optics

As shown in Fig. 33, the AF optics AF sensor
have the image reproduced on the AF Secondary image-
formation lens
sensor. First, 22 light flux rays for 11
points (7 vertical, 4 horizontal) pass
through the camera lens and are
sampled independently. Then the image
first forms in midair (focus plane) and
the secondary image-formation lens
reproduces the image on the AF sensor
for each focusing area. The light flux for
focusing is set to f/2.8 for the two light
flux at the center horizontal, while it is
Field lens
f/5.6 for the other 20 light flux (same as
with previous EOS cameras). Primary image formation plane
Fig. 017 AF optics

(2) Focusing principle

As with previous EOS cameras, TTL-SIR (Through-The-Lens Secondary
Image Registration) is incorporated.
(3) Actual AF optics

Fig. 018 shows how the actual AF optics work. The light flux goes through
the camera lens, then the focusing light flux that passes through the half
mirror (40%) reaches the secondary mirror (flat and fully reflective) where it is
bent downward by 66
Fig. 019 shows the AF unit's basic configuration. While based on the EOS
10D's AF unit, it has the following improvements:
[1] Configured to minimize ghosting
Unwanted light is blocked by narrowing the field of view. The separator
uses a low-reflectance material.
[2] Highly resistant to temperature and humidity changes
The AF optics and framework have a low-line expansion coefficient and
low moisture absorption coefficient.

3) AF mode
Like the EOS 10D, the EOS 20D has three AF modes: One-Shot AF, AI SERVO
AF, and AI Focus AF. In the Basic Zone modes, the optimum AF mode is set
automatically. In the Creative Zone modes, you can select any AF mode.
In the Sports mode (AI Servo AF set automatically) and modes where AI Focus
AF is set automatically, a low-volume beep sounds when focus is achieved in the
AI SERVO AF mode (beeper enabled).
Note: In the Creative Zone modes when AI SERVO AF is set, the beeper will not sound even when
focus is achieved.
11
4) Focusing computation
The AF speed is on par with the EOS 10D thanks to the high-performance, 32-
bit RISC microcomputer (main clock 32 MHz, A/D conversion 4 µs, minimum
command execution of 0.03 µs) and an improved AF sequence (AF processing
front loading, SI illumination, metering executed in parallel with the lens drive
and mirror swing-up) to match.
5) One-Shot AF
The high-speed computing and lens drive processing and the latest high-speed
AF algorithm employed since the EOS REBEL Ti/300V enable a faster One-Shot
AF speed than the EOS 10D despite having nine AF points.
6) AI SERVO AF
(1) Predictive AF computation

Predictive AF can focus track a 100
(m)
subject approaching at 50 kph up
Subject distance
to 8 meters away with an EF

300mm f/2.8L IS USM.
As with the EOS 10D, the EOS
20D's predictive AF computation 20
uses statistical prediction that

incorporates the focusing data of 10
8
past focusing operations. Since it
can repeat more focusing
operations in a short length of
time, the predictive AF control can
effectively operate from the first
shot even for a subject moving
erratically. Also, even if the subject 1
5 10 50 100 500
Subject's speed (kph)
movement changes right before the
Fig. 020 Predictive AF performance
shot is taken, the predictive AF
control will have a good chance of
catching it.
(2) For still subjects

Even when AI SERVO AF is used to focus a still subject, the focus control is
stable enough so that the lens drive does not move minutely. If the subject
moves suddenly, the camera will be able to track it immediately.
(3) Complete pressing of shutter button

As with the EOS-1D Mark II, when focusing is possible, the lens drive is
executed based on the focusing result right before the shutter release. The
shot is then taken.
12
7) Automatic AF point selection
The automatic selection of the AF point in both the One-Shot AF and AI

SERVO AF modes is based on the same algorithm used by the EOS 10D. The
automatic AF point selection speed and AF point selection accuracy (matching
the user's intended subject) are also about the same as the EOS 10D's.
8) AF point selection
The AF point is manually selected with the Multi-controller on the camera

back.
The Multi-controller can be pressed in 8 directions as well as at the center.
After you press the AF point selection button, press the Multi-controller in the
direction of the AF point you want to select. Pressing the Multi-controller at the
center will select the center AF point. And if you press the Multi-controller in the
direction of the currently-selected AF point, automatic AF point selection will be
set (all the AF points will light).
You can also press the AF point selection button and then turn the Main Dial
or Quick Control Dial to select a AF point.
Also, if C.Fn-13-1/2 (AF point selection method) is set, you can skip pressing
the AF point selection button and just use the Multi-controller or Quick Control
Dial to select the AF point directly.

1.5 Viewfinder
1) Viewfinder optics
The basic configuration of the viewfinder optics is the same as the EOS 10D's.
Only the pentaprism and eyepiece optics have been optimized so that the
viewfinder magnification is slightly better (from 0.880 to 0.90).
The other specifications (95% coverage, 20mm eye point, dioptric adjustment
range from -3.0 to +1.0 dpt) are the same as the EOS 10D.
The dioptric adjustment mechanism is based on the EOS 10D's. However,
since the movement of the lens during dioptric adjustment is larger, the -3.0 to
+1.0 dpt range is retained even while the effects of the moving lens' inclination
and eccentricity are reduced. Thus, even when there is dioptric adjustment, the
eyepiece optics still make it easy to see.

The newly-developed superimposition

display optics have been incorporated. The
light from the superimposition LED
positioned on the upper rear of the
pentaprism goes through the SI prism and
pentaprism. Then it is projected in the
configuration of the AF points on the fine Acrylic reflective plate
reflective surface of the acrylic reflective plate
between the pentaprism and focusing screen.
This is how the SI illumination is produced. Fig. 023 SI optics
14
3) Focusing screen
The newly-developed Precision Matte focusing screen is a dispersion plate with

an excellent light distribution angle afforded by controlling the microlens
curvature and optimizing the arrangement.
By controlling the microlens curvature, the overall light distribution angle is
determined. And by optimizing the microlens arrangement, the wide light
distribution angle's characteristic is controlled as necessary when a fast lens is
attached. Since the blurriness of the defocus area near the focus confirmation
light point is steep, it is easy to distinguish the point of focus during manual
focusing. Especially with f/2.8 or faster lenses, you can get the feel of the focus.
Also, the viewfinder's colorings are slightly fewer than the EOS 10D's.

1.6 Exposure control

1) Metering
(1) Metering optics and metering sensor

The metering optics have the same configuration as
the EOS 10D with the metering sensor positioned
behind the pentaprism. The metering lens
magnification is optimized so that the nine AF points
match the metering sensor's metering zones. The
metering sensor is the same as the EOS 10D's 35-zone
Fig. 025 Metering sensor
sensor.
(2) Metering modes

As with the EOS 10D, the EOS 20D has evaluative metering, partial
metering at center, and centerweighted averaged metering. For partial
metering at the center, about 9% of the viewfinder area is used.
(3) Evaluative metering algorithm

The 35 metering zones are divided into three areas
(metering area around AF point, weighted area, and
peripheral metering area). Each area is weighted
differently and the final metering is thereby
calculated. This is the same method as with the EOS
10D. However, the algorithm has been optimized for
the nine AF points. Fig. 026 Metering zones
15
The basic idea for maintaining a consistent and stable exposure even after
the shot is recomposed remains the same as before. Also, the camera's
accurate decision to fire the built-in flash based on the orientation sensor
reading also comes from the same, previous idea.
(4) E-TTL II algorithm

E-TTL II autoflash control takes effect when the built-in flash or an EX-
series Speedlite is used. The EOS 20D also uses the EOS-1D Mark II's E-TTL
autoflash algorithm which is more advanced than the EOS 10D's E-TTL
autoflash algorithm.
AF point-linked evaluative metering control abolished:

In past EOS cameras, evaluative metering was based on the assumption
that the AF point covered the main subject. However, with the automatically-
selected AF point or the manually-selected center AF point, the spot where
you want the flash exposure reading sometimes was not the same as the
point of focus. Therefore, the desired flash exposure was not obtained. The
EOS 20D's evaluative flash metering control uses an algorithm that keeps the
flash exposure area separate from the AF point.
Subject-specific, weighted, averaged flash metering:

With the control process below, the subject area to be metered for flash is
specified, added, and averaged to determine the main flash output. Unlike
the EOS 10D, evaluative metering of ambient light is executed regardless of
the metering mode currently set.
1. Press the shutter button completely, then the ambient light is metered
right before the preflash is fired.
2. A preflash is fired and the metering sensor meters the entire scene.
3. For each metering zone, the ambient light reading taken in step 1 is
compared with the preflash meter reading. The area having a large
difference between the ambient light reading and preflash meter reading
is selected. (If there are more than one such area, the adjacent areas are
also selected as the flash metering area.)
4. The selected area's preflash meter reading is added and averaged. It is
compared with the ambient light reading taken in step 1, and the output
of the main flash is calculated and recorded in memory.
Since the main subject and all other objects at the same distance will be
added and averaged for the flash metering, the flash meter reading will not
change radically even if there is a big change in the position, reflectance, and
size of the main subject. The flash metering remains highly accurate and
stable.
16
If the difference between the ambient light reading and preflash reading is
extremely large, it is likely that there is a highly reflective object. This
reflective area is eliminated and the preflash reading is adjusted to a lower
reading to prevent underexposure.
Incorporating lens distance information:

When a lens having distance information is used, the flash exposure will be
even more stable for flash pictures which have a highly reflective object or
white clothing worn by the subject.
If there is a highly reflective object in the scene, there will be an extremely big
difference between the ambient light reading and preflash reading in only one
area. If the lens provides distance information, the distance information is
also incorporated to determine whether there is a highly reflective object. This
further ensures that the highly reflective object is eliminated from the final
exposure. (If the lens does not provide distance information, the highly
reflective object's adverse effect on the exposure is reduced based on the
available information.)
Also, since a highly reflective object tends to result in an underexposed
shot, the distance information is also incorporated to reduce the degree of
underexposure.
Since the distance information is zone information for *** to *** meters, it is
used as a supplemental method to stabilize flash exposures for such atypical
scenes.
Note: For macrophotography, the distance information is not used.
2) Exposure control system
As with the EOS 10D, the EOS 20D has eleven AE modes and a manual mode.
When A-DEP (automatic depth-of-field AE) is used, AF is executed with nine AF
points, the optimum aperture is set, and the shutter speed is set automatically.
3) Shutter
A newly-developed shutter dedicated to the APS-C size is employed. By making

the shutter dedicated to this size, compactness, high speed, and high durability
are attained.
Table 007 shows the shutter design specifications.
(1) APS-C-size design

Since the shutter opening is the same size as the
APS-C size, the shutter blades are smaller. This
minimizes the inertial mass so that high-speed
shutter speeds can be obtained with a little force.
Also, having smaller shutter blades makes the
shutter unit smaller.
Fig. 027 Shutter unit
17
(2) Faster speed

Besides the smaller size, the stronger drive spring affords a maximum
shutter speed of 1/8000 sec. and X-sync at 1/250 sec. (curtain speed: 2.4
ms/15 mm).
Note: For non-EOS external flash, check whether it can sync at 1/250 sec.
(3) Better control

To control fast shutter speeds, a stronger magnet is used. The shutter
control is thereby better.
Electrical X contacts are used for the sync contacts. Through the electrical
X contacts (semiconductor switch), the mechanical X contacts are switched
ON/OFF by a low voltage. Therefore, there is no contact scorching or
frictional wear. The contacts are thus highly reliable. The PC terminal has no
polarity.
Also, the battery life during bulb exposures is about 2.5 hours with a fully-
charged BP-511A.

4) ISO speed
(1) ISO speed range

ISO 100 - 1600 can be set in 1-stop increments. When C.Fn-08-1 (ISO
speed extension) is set, an ISO speed equivalent of ISO 3200 (H) can be set.
(2) ISO auto

The ISO auto feature that sets the ISO speed automatically in Basic Zone
modes was first incorporated in the EOS 10D. However, due to user
suggestions, this feature has been revamped.
As shown in Table 008, ISO 400 (except in Portrait mode) is the basic ISO
speed. This results in good image quality while reducing the chances of
camera shake more than before. When flash is used, the main subject's
background will also look bright.

1.7 Drive
1) Continuous shooting
A maximum continuous shooting speed of 5 shots/sec. can be attained in

both the One-Shot AF and AI SERVO AF modes. This is made possible by the
new drive mechanism (mirror up/down, shutter cocking/release mechanism),
the CMOS sensor (4-channel x 16 MHz reading) enabling high-speed signal
reading, and the DIGIC II (parallel processing for each sensor output channel)
enabling high-speed image processing.
2) Maximum burst during continuous shooting
The EOS 10D's maximum burst during continuous shooting was nine shots
regardless of the recording quality setting. With the EOS 20D, the maximum
burst depends on the image's process-ing method. As shown in Table 25, the
max. burst is approx. 23 shots in the Large/Fine mode when Canon 512MB CF
card is used.
Table 009 Maximum burst during continuous shooting
Recording Quality L/F L/N M/F M/N S/F S/N RAW RAW+JPEG
Max. Burst [Approx.] 23 43 36 83 67 138 6 6
Note 1: Canon 512MB CF card = Super High-speed type CF card

Note 2: Depending on the shooting condition, development condition and CF card type, max. burst of
JPEG images may vary.
Note 3: With the EOS 10D, no image processing is executed during continuous shooting. The image
is processed after the shooting stops. However, with the EOS 20D, image processing is
executed even during continuous shooting. Therefore, the maximum burst during
continuous shooting is much higher when the recording quality is JPEG.
Note 4: If the recording quality is RAW or RAW+JPEG or if white balance bracketing is used, the
image processing method will be the same as the EOS 10D's (because the buffer memory
capacity is the same as the EOS 10D's and there are more recorded pixels). Therefore, the
maximum burst during continuous shooting will be lower than the EOS 10D's.
19
If any of the following occurs, the image-processing method will change during
the continuous shooting and the maximum burst displayed on the lower right of
the viewfinder will decrease sharply (less than 6 shots).
Note: Depending on the number of shots already taken, the camera may become "buSy" and no more
shots can be taken (in the worst case) when the image-processing method changes.
(1) During continuous shooting in the Portrait mode (built-in flash firing
automatically), you switched the built-in flash on/off.
(2) During continuous shooting, the external flash could not recycle in time
and the shooting continued.
(3) You pressed the shutter button fully repeatedly at short intervals.
(4) Right after shooting, you changed the shooting mode and started shooting
again immediately.
(5) During continuous shooting, the built-in flash was popped up or down (to
turn the flash on/off).
(6) During continuous shooting, the external flash was turned on/off and you
started shooting again.
Once the camera finishes processing the images in the buffer memory, the
camera goes back to the normal image-processing method.
3) Number of possible shots
With the DIGIC II featuring a power-saving circuit design and low power
consumption and a CMOS sensor consuming less power than before, the
number of possible shots is about 1,000 at 20ºC and 750 at 0ºC.
Note: With a fully-charged BP-511A and AE 100%. Based on CIPA testing standards.
1.8 Built-in flash

The built-in flash employs the
EOS IX-E's arm and the EOS
DIGITAL REBEL/EOS 300D
DIGITAL's pop-up system. The
distance between the optical axis
and built-in flash center is 18.6
mm longer than with the EOS Fig. 028 Comparison of built-in flash height
10D. This reduces the chances of
red eye occurring and makes it less likely for the lens barrel to obstruct the flash
coverage. With the EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM, the built-in flash can be used
for subjects as close as 1 meter.
Also, the relative positions of the reflector and Xenon tube are optimized and the
flash panel's transparency has been improved. As a result, the built-in flash has
the same Guide No. 13 as the EOS 10D's built-in flash. Since the vertical flash
coverage angle is wider by 2
The built-in flash's retraction and pop-up have been improved with rubber fitted
for the stopper to cushion the pop-up. Also, a new latch mechanism is
incorporated to close the gap better.
20
The EOS 20D is also compatible with the SL580EX's "Picture size auto zoom"
feature. (The SL580EX automatically detects the EOS 20D's sensor size and
automatically sets the optimum flash coverage.)
Also, with C.Fn-07-1 (flash on/off), flash firing by the built-in flash, external
Speedlite, or non-Canon flash connected to the PC terminal can be disabled.
1.9 Basic operation concept and LCD monitor

1) Basic operation concept
The basic operation for selecting and setting various functions with the Main
Dial, Quick Control Dial, and buttons are the same as with the EOS 10D.
As with previous EOS digital cameras, no matter what state the camera is
currently in (except during direct printing), all you do is press the shutter button
to instantly return to standby for shooting.
2) Multi-controller
The new Multi-controller is

can quickly select the desired AF Fig. 029 Changes in the camera controls
point. The Assist button found
on the EOS 10D has been discontinued.
3) LCD monitor
The EOS 20D's LCD monitor is a 1.8-inch, polysilicon, TFT liquid-crystal, color
monitor with 118,000 pixels. It has a high transparence, high contrast, and wide
angle of view. For the backlight, there are three LED modules that consume little
power.
With the EOS 10D, there were a few complaints about the brightness of the
image displayed on the LCD monitor being slightly different from the actual
brightness (as viewed on a personal computer). This problem has been resolved
by changing the LCD monitor's gamma correction. This has also enhanced the
gradation of highlight areas.
21
4) Image playback
As with the EOS 10D, the camera can display a single image, shooting
information, 9-image index, magnified zoom display, jump display, and auto
play. It can also erase-protect images and rotate images.
The EOS 20D can now display a single image without shooting information.
Each time you press the Info button, the display format will change as follows:
image and basic information, shooting information, and image only. When you
finish the playback, the last display format will be remembered so when you
playback images again, the same display format as the last time will be used.
As for the shooting information, the following information not provided by the
EOS 10D is now provided: color space, original image verification data
appended, WB correction, and monochrome display. Also, for the camera setting
display, the WB correction and color space have been added.

Fig. 030 Single image display/Shooting information/Camera settings
5) Menu functions
The scrolling system is the same as the EOS 10D's. The current menu
category is displayed as a tab (icon + color code) on the upper left of the screen.
When you press the JUMP button (moves to the first item in the next menu
category), a guide is added to the upper right of the screen. This enables faster
menu operations. Table 26 shows the menu items. (New items are in green.)
Note: Although the JUMP button was provided on the EOS 10D, it was obscure and not used much.

1.10 Direct printing from camera and Print ordering (DPOF)

As with all EOS digital cameras from the EOS 10D onward, the EOS 20D is
compatible with PictBridge, CP Direct, Bubble Jet Direct, and DPOF Print Ordering
(Version 1.1). The direct printing features and DPOF features are the same as the
EOS-1D Mark II's. Printer communications can be set to [Normal] or [PTP] with the
menu's [Communication] setting.
When the camera is connected to a CP printer, CP direct will be set regardless of
the PictBridge/CP Direct and Communications settings.
When the camera is connected to a BJ printer compatible with both PictBridge
and Bubble Jet Direct, Bubble Jet Direct will take effect if the Communications
setting is [Normal]. If the Communications setting is [PTP], PictBridge will take
effect. Or, if the BJ printer is compatible with only Bubble Jet Direct, Bubble Jet
Direct will be set regardless of the Communications setting. If the camera is
connected to a non-Canon printer compatible with PictBridge, set the
Communications setting to [PTP] to enable direct printing with PictBridge.
And with the EOS 20D, improved data transmission architecture enabled faster
printing with Canon BJ printers using PictBridge. Especially for image recording
modes whose file size is large, such as Large/Fine, the printing time is drastically
shortened, compared to the conventional data transmission system.
Note 1: Apart from the file size, the printing time varies depending on the size of the paper or the type
of the printer. Therefore, there may be a case that the printing time is not shortened although
the image is Large. With the Middle image and its file size is large, the printing time may be
shortened depending on the printing conditions. For Small image, the printing time is almost
the same with the previous model.
Note 2: This fast data transmission is only effective with the Canon BJ printer compatible with
PictBridge. When printing with Bubble Jet Direct, CP printer or non-Canon printer, the
conventional data transmission system is used.
Note 3: Examples of printing time : When Canon BJ 860i type printer is used, image quality is set to
Large/Fine, and the file size is 1) 5.6 MB or 2) 3.0MB;
Note 3: L-size borderless print : Fast transmission 1) 76 sec., 2) 77 sec. / conventional trans. 1) 191
sec., 2) 77 sec.
Note 3: A4-size borderless print : Fast transmission 1) 218 sec., 2) 218 sec. / Conventional trans. 1)
372 sec., 2) 331 sec.

1.11 Interface
1) USB 2.0 Hi-speed
The actual transfer speed is about 10 times faster than with the EOS 10D
thanks to the DIGIC II and a faster digital circuit. (EOS 20D: Approx. 50 Mbps,
EOS 10D: Approx. 5 Mbps)
2) Video OUT port/Remote control terminal
The specifications of the video OUT port and remote control terminal (N3 type)
are the same as the EOS 10D's.
1.12 Power source

The EOS 20D's power source can be Battery Pack BP-511A and BP-514 (both
with 26% higher capacity) and BP-511 and BP-512.
In BATTERY GRIP BG-E2, two battery packs or a battery magazine containing
six size-AA batteries can be accommodated. The size-AA batteries can be alkaline
or Ni-MH. If two battery packs are inserted, the one with the higher voltage will be
used first. Then when the voltage of the two battery packs become equal, both
battery packs will be consumed together.
Also, Battery Charger CG-580, which will be bundled with the camera for Japan
and North America, will have the power plug built-in inside the charger. The basic
specifications are the same as the CB-5L. The CG-580 and CB-5L takes about 100
min. to recharge the BP-511A/BP-514 and about 90 min. to recharge the BP-
511/512.
1.13 Internal construction

1) Exterior covers and internal construction
As with the EOS 10D, the EOS 20D's top, front,

and rear covers are made of magnesium alloy
known for light weight and excellent strength.
Also, the left cover, where the USB port, video
port, and other external interface connectors are
located, is made of special engineering plastic
that serves as an excellent electromagnetic shield.
The body consists of a chassis made of stainless
steel, and a mirror box made of high-strength Fig. 031 Magnesium-alloy exterior
engineering plastic. The mirror box, to which the
lens mount and image sensor are attached, is fixed very securely on the chassis
to obtain the same body strength as the EOS 10D. This is to prevent the flange
focal distance from changing due to the static pressure of the attached lens.
As with the EOS 10D, the exterior paint is a high-grade, black satin, leathery
finish. The satin and leathery pattern is finer than before, and it feels nice and
smooth in the hands.

2) Internal construction and location of major components
While the EOS 20D's basic performance is the same or better than the EOS
10D's, the design and production know-how gained from the EOS DIGITAL
REBEL/EOS 300D DIGITAL have made the camera smaller and cheaper.
The parts count is shown in Table 012.
(1) Smaller and lighter

• The following components have been optimized for the APS-C-size image
sensor: Compact shutter unit, mirror box, main mirror, pentaprism,
focusing screen, and viewfinder optical unit.
• Smaller and lighter due to the changed configuration of the stainless steel
chassis.
(2) Cost reduction measures

Canon.
• Higher integration of circuit boards.
• Streamlined assembly and adjustment process.
3) Shutter release mechanism
The shutter release mechanism is Table 013 Shutter-release stroke and pressure

stops of maximum aperture). The
viewfinder blackout time is approx.
115 ms. Both figures are much shorter than the EOS 10D.
4) Electrical components
The EOS 20D's basic circuit board configuration consists of five hard circuit
boards centering on the digital control circuit board and camera control circuit
board. These boards are connected to 22 flexible circuit boards.
The EOS DIGITAL REBEL/EOS 300D DIGITAL has the digital control circuit
board and camera control circuit board on one large hard board. However, the
EOS 20D has split these two boards to afford more a compact size and flexibility
in the exterior design. It also makes assembly adjustments more efficient.
Although separating the two boards normally increases the cost, the cost was
reduced by using a suitable layout of parts and a streamlined board shape.
Fig. 034 on page 30 shows the location of major mechanical components, and
Fig. 035 shows the location of major circuit boards. Fig. 036 shows the cross
section at the center.
The main features of the major circuit boards are as follows:
(1) Digital control circuit board

This board uses a high-density, 10-layer board (3-4-3). It consists of the
following circuits: ADIC that converts the output from the CMOS sensor into
digital signals, an image signal-processing circuit that has an IC called TG
which generates the CMOS sensor's drive pulse, a digital image-processing
circuit that includes DIGIC II, a memory circuit that includes an SDRAM for
storing images, and a TFT control circuit that includes the TFT liquid-crystal
control IC.
Also, the board's second and ninth layers are basically GND layers. They
prevent signal interference between the top- and bottom-side patterns and
inner pattern. Misoperation due to noise is thereby prevented.
27
(2) Camera control circuit board

This board has six layers which include the following: The main
microcomputer which is an IC for camera operation control such as sensor
and mechanical control, the display microcomputer which is an IC for the
LCD panel and viewfinder display drive control and control of various
switches, an EEPROM which is memory for storing adjustment data (AE, AF,
etc.).
(3) External interface connection circuit board

To make the camera smaller, this board has been separated from the digital
control circuit board. It is located in the dead space between the camera body
and digital control circuit board.
The board is equipped with a USB port (MINI B) and video OUT terminal. It
provides USB 2.0 Hi-speed. Although this faster communication speed is
more prone to be affected by noise, the noise problem has been given
adequate consideration in the board's configuration.
(4) Flash circuit board

The electronic X circuit and camera orientation detection circuit have been
added to the flash circuit board. Also, the orientation detection circuit in
previous EOS cameras had two direction detection switches to detect the two
directions. In the EOS 20D, the orientation detection circuit has a 4-way
direction detection switch that can detect the horizontal and vertical
directions. By having only one switch, less space is necessary.

5) Compliance to RoHS directive (Restriction of the Use of Certain

Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment)
The RoHS directive will ban the use of the following six toxic substances in
any electrical and electronic equipment: Lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent
chromium, polybrominated biphenyl, and polybrominated diphenyl ether. It will
take effect from July 1, 2006 and be applied to products sold in the EU. The
EOS 20D meets this directive.
Note: RoHS directive: Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and
electronic equipment.

2. MECHANICAL ADJUSTMENTS
2.1 Flange to Focal Plane Distance (FFD) Adjustment
• The adjustment procedure is same as that of EOS-1D series.
• FFD adjustment is required when replacing the front panel ass'y or
CAUTION the mount.
• It is also required when tilted images occur due to some impact
caused by dropping etc.
<Purpose>
FFD implies the distance between a reference plane of the lens mount and the
CMOS sensor plane. It cannot be measured at service; therefore, measure the
distance from the mount plane to CMOS mounting washer plane (washer
included) to adjust FFD to be within the spec.
<Service Parts>
Front panel unit: Compensation washers are not attached as before.
IMG unit: Offset values based on the specification are written.
<Specifications>
Front panel unit replacement: Set the distance from the lens mount to the image
unit installation surface to same distance as
before front panel unit replacement.
IMG unit: Add or subtract the IMG unit compensation amount to/from the
difference calculated by subtracting the original distance between the
lens mount and the image unit installation surface (washer included)
from the specified distance. Select the washer that meets calculated
value to make FFD be within the specification.
Reference)
FFD: The dimension from the lens mount surface to the FFD (Flange to imaging
plane) is 44.00 +/- 0.02mm.
<Tools>
• Digital micrometer (Commercially available)
• Mount Fastening Tool (CY9-1547-000)
<Preparation>
• Place the mount fastening block on the digital micrometer, and place the
measuring point on the mount reference plane. Reset the meter so that "0" is
displayed.

<Adjustment Procedure>
1) When replacing IMG Unit (Same front panel unit is used continuously)
Note: Service parts are set to 43.10mm at the factory, and their image units are adjusted.
Each offset data is attached to the parts. Therefore, based on the 43.10mm
standard, the offset needs to be added or subtracted to calculate the final distance.
Then, finally select washer that meet calculated distance.
Washer Calculation Procedure:

(1) Ex: Offset values of the replacement parts
Upper Left: -0.069
Upper Right: 0.02
Bottom: 0.051
Fig. 004
(2) Measure the distance between the mount plane
and the CMOS mounting washer planes.
Upper Left: 42.97mm
Upper Right: 42.96mm
Bottom: 42.93mm
Fig. 005
(3) Calculate the washer offset values.

Upper Left: 43.10-0.069-42.97=0.06mm (LW)

2) When replacing IMG Unit (Same front panel unit is used continuously)
Note: As the washer offsets for the IMG unit are unknown, select washer offsets and
insert the washer to make the distance same as the approximate distance from
mount surface of front cover unit to image sensor installation surface (washer
included) on the camera that was replaced.
(1) Before replacing the front panel unit, remove the image sensor unit, and
measure the existing dimension from the mount surface to the image sensor
installation surface (with washer) (three points).
(2) After replacing the front panel unit, measure the distance from the mount
surface to the image sensor installation surface (three points). Select and
attach the washers to make the distance same as the one before replacement.
3) When replacing the front panel ass'y and CMOS ass'y at the same time
Note: When the existing measured value (distance from the mount surface to the image
sensor installation surface) is 44.75mm, 0.1mm washer is attached, and the
measured value after replacement is 44.85. As the measured value after
replacement is 44.85 (44.75 + 0.1 = 44.85), washers are not necessary.

1. EOS DIGITAL SOLUTION DISK Ver. 8

1.1 Overview
EOS DIGITAL Solution Disk version 8 is a CD-ROM containing the compatible /
bundled software for the EOS 20D.
1.2 Software Configuration

Table 001 shows the software configuration for version 8 and the versions of
each software.

The EOS 20D interface is USB 2.0 Hi-Speed, which is not supported on Mac OS
9. Consequently, the Mac OS 9 software cannot communicate with the camera and
EOS Capture is no longer bundled. In addition, EOS Viewer Utility for Mac OS 9
cannot be used for downloading images or specifying camera settings.
* Drivers will be included for the EOS 20D and EOS-1D Mark II.
1.3 EOS Viewer Utility

1) Overview of EOS Viewer Utility version 1.1
In version 1.1, the EOS 20D is added to the list of supported cameras and the
changes in 2) are made to the main functions.
1
2) Main function additions/changes in EOS Viewer Utility version 1.1
(1) JPEG preview function

In version 1.0, there was no function for
displaying the JPEG image included in a
RAW+JPEG image, and this prompted user
requests regarding JPEG image display.
To address these requests, a preference
setting (Fig. 001) has been added in version
1.1 that allows users to specify whether the
processed RAW image or the JPEG image
recorded concurrently is displayed in the
preview window for RAW+JPEG images. A
new "JPEG Preview" button with the same
function has also been added to the preview
window, allowing users to switch between the
RAW and JPEG images. Fig. 001 Preferences dialog box
(2) Monitor profile display

A monitor profile display has been added to the Preferences. (Fig. 001)
* The profile is set or modified in the operating system.
(3) Addition of an EOS Capture button in the main window toolbar

A reappraisal of the "Camera Settings" button in
the main window toolbar determined that EOS
Capture is used more frequently than the Fig. 002 EOS Capture button
camera settings. Accordingly, the "Camera
Settings" button has been replaced by an EOS
Capture button. (Fig. 002)
(4) Number display for thumbnail images

An image number display has been added in the top-left
corner of thumbnail images in the main window. (Fig.
003)

3) EOS 20D RAW image adjustment

As with previous models, all the processing parameters set on the camera can
also be set for RAW images on the EOS 20D. (Figure 4)
The following functions have also been added to those provided for the
previous model (EOS 10D):
(1) White balance compensation added to the white balance adjustments
(2) A "Monochrome" function added to the processing parameters.
The "Monochrome" function allows the "Filter Effect" and "Toning Effect" to
be specified.

1.4 EOS Capture

1) Overview of version 1.1
The 3 main differences between versions 1.0 and 1.1 are the addition of the
EOS 20D to the supported cameras, the addition of image rotation functions
(rotate 90 degrees right, rotate 90 degrees left and rotate 180 degrees), and the
modifications to the white balance compensation display.

In version 1.0, EOS Capture was installed in conjunction with EOS Viewer
Utility and could not be installed independently. Consequently, users wishing to
use only Digital Photo Professional and EOS Capture were forced to install EOS
Viewer Utility also. To remedy this problem, EOS Capture has been upgraded in
version 1.1 so that it can be installed as a standalone application.

2) Supported cameras
Four models are supported: the EOS 20D, EOS-1D Mark II, EOS-1Ds and
EOS-1D.
1.5 Other Software Applications

1) PhotoStitch
This application merges multiple photographed images into a single image. It
allows the user to create composite images such as panorama shots with great
precision. The specifications are the same as those for PhotoStitch on Solution
Disk version 7.
2) WIA Driver
This driver software is compatible with the Microsoft WIA (Windows Image
Acquisition) standard and is used for controlling communication between the
camera and EOS Viewer Utility or EOS Capture.
WIA Driver runs on Windows XP or Me. This driver runs as a standalone
application or in combination with TWAIN-compatible software and is used for
downloading JPEG images. (RAW images not supported) The specifications are
the same as those for WIA Driver on Solution Disk version 7.
3) TWAIN Driver
This driver software is compatible with the TWAIN standard and is used for
controlling communication between the camera and EOS Viewer Utility or EOS
Capture. TWAIN Driver runs on Windows 2000 or 98SE. This driver runs in
combination with TWAIN-compatible software and is used for downloading JPEG
images. (RAW images not supported) The specifications are the same as those for
TWAIN Driver on Solution Disk version 7.
