Starting with our first lens in 1946, we’ve been constantly developing
our technologies and manufacturing processes. In 1987, we launched
the Canon EOS Camera system. Now there are EOS cameras for every
type of photographer, from beginners to professionals. And that’s just
the beginning. More than 70 lenses give you unlimited scope for
creative control – so you can take exactly the shots you want.
