The Canon EOS Rebel Ti was released in 2002 to upgrade Canon's EOS Rebel series of autofocus consumer SLR cameras. Upon its release, the Rebel Ti had the fastest autofocus and most advanced autoexposure in its class.
Among the more welcomed improvements was the new stainless steel lens mount, replacing the less durable plastic mount found on previous EOS Rebel cameras, the ability to adjust the viewfinder diopter, a higher built-in flash with better red-eye reduction capability, and an illuminated LCD panel.
The Rebel Ti was marketed as Canon EOS 300V in Europe, Asia and Oceania, and as Canon EOS Kiss 5 in Japan.
