The Canon EOS 50D is a 15.1-megapixel digital single-lens reflex camera. It is part of the Canon EOS line of cameras and succeeds the EOS 40D. Canon announced the camera on 26 August 2008. The camera was released on 6 October 2008 The 50D has a higher pixel count (15.1 megapixels), hence higher shooting resolutions than its predecessor, and like the 40D, has a 14-bit RAW format. The camera has Live View, which allows photographers to use the LCD screen as the viewfinder. Because the sensor mirror needs to be in the locked position, shutter noise is reduced in this mode
