I mean, it's improved, but not by much. It goes from off to first shot fairly quickly at 1. Shutter lag--how long it takes from pressing the shutter release to capture--is very good at 0. That was in lab tests, though, and in my testing the camera felt slow to focus. What did show more improvement were continuous shooting speeds. Canon includes a full-resolution, eight-shot-burst scene mode that is capable of up to 10 frames per second.
This sets focus and exposure with the first shot, but that's common with these modes. There is also a continuous shooting setting that hits about 2. At the front of the large, comfortable grip is a shutter release with a lever for operating the extreme 35x zoom lens followed back by a shooting mode dial and power button. Though the motor moves the lens smoothly, it's slow and takes too long to move the lens in and out. A Zoom Frame Assist button on back next to the thumbrest helps a bit by pulling the lens back and sending it forward again when released, but it's still too slow when trying to track a moving subject.
Below the Zoom Frame Assist button to the right of the thumbrest are Play and AF Frame Selector buttons, the latter allowing you to move your AF frame according to where you want the camera to focus and change the size of the frame. Below that is a control dial that sits on top of a four-way directional pad.
The dial is used for navigation as well as changing settings. This includes changes to shutter speed and aperture; notably absent is a thumb dial for doing these things. The dial moves too freely with no real stops, too, so it's pretty easy to blow past whatever it is you're trying to set.
The directional pad also sets focus type, exposure compensation, ISO, and the self-timer. A separate Menu button below the dial brings up the rest of the camera options. It's joined by a Display button. The Display button is what's used to move back and forth from the 2. What's worse is that there are some modes that use the Display button to access secondary functions, so if you're in one of those and want to switch from the LCD or EVF, you have to leave the shooting mode you're in first.
There are buttons on either side of the EVF, though. On the left is a programmable shortcut button, and on the right is a one-press record button for capturing movies. If you want additional movie shooting options, though, you can select a full Movie mode on the shooting mode dial. In the end, the controls are fairly easy to use, but definitely take some practice if you're not familiar with Canon's menus and controls. Even seasoned Canon users will want to examine the full manual, though, included on the software disc bundled with the camera.

Improved noise reduction produces clearer images when shooting in low light at high ISO speeds. Enhanced i-Contrast performance adjusts differences between light and dark areas to achieve even more natural-looking results. The faster processing speed also results in faster continuous shooting capability while maintaining full image quality.
Whereas conventional white balance makes an overall adjustment based on a single type of light source, the new Canon Multi-Area White Balance analyzes several areas of the image to determine whether different adjustments are needed, for example, for the main subject and the background.
Beautiful low-light shots are possible with minimal noise and maximum detail in highlight and shadow areas. It can shoot at up to An 'Intelligent IS' system attempts to assess the shooting conditions and use the most appropriate stabilization mode, to make the camera's huge lens range usable.
