The EOS 3 stands out because of its extraordinary autofocus system, which is so much faster and easier to use and to set than anything available today. It has Eye Controlled Focus, a name which doesn't do this system justice. The AF system is constantly looking at your eye, and already knows where you're looking when you press the shutter, so without you even having to think, the EOS 3 already knows where it needs to focus, and it just does. The EOS 3's AF system is far ahead of today's cameras, which no longer use this expensive system. With newer cameras, we again have to slave through dicking around with knobs and dials to choose AF points, something the EOS 3 does all by itself. Add the PB-E2 Booster and you have a 7fps camera which uses 8x AA batteries - no expensive 2CR5s, just bog standard rechargeable AAs.Read full review

The last of the great 35mm film cameras. Wonderful solid feel. It's electronics are extraordinary, including monitoring your eye movement to tell where you want to focus. Built for reliability.

Intro I was looking for a 35mm film camera that can autofocus and occupy my EF lenses. Then I found the 10frames/s on 1v is not necessary just like the nowadays EOS 1D series. EOS-5 and EOS-3 are more like the 5D mk2 and mark III. EOS-3 is more advanced than EOS-5, with 45 focusing points, 21 metering zones, eye control focusing and multi-exposure up to 9 times. All the other functions and buttons are just like the EOS DSLRs. For the functions, EOS-3 is better than EOS 1, 1N, and 5. Hands on Experience I have already finished 4 rolls with my EOS-3. The AF is possibly faster than 5D mk2. The eye control needs some calibration and practise. Double exposure just becomes incredibly easy and amazing. Exposure is much more accurate at low light condition than the Canon A-1 I had. The more I use EOS-3, the more I like it. Pros: 45 focusing points, 21 metering zones, eye control, build quality, good looking, improvements in ETTL with external flash; Cons: not water/dust resistance, big size, loud shutter sound;Read full review
The Canon EOS 3 has fantastic eye control focusing across 45 points and professional build quality. If you are a digital EOS photographer then this is the camera to use with all your L series glass and enable you to rediscover film photography.
