The 1996 Canon IX (EOS IX E in Japan) is an SLR camera for the APS film system. It was the flagship of the SLR cameras for the APS system. It uses Canon's EF lenses, which were until then only used with the EOS camera bodies for 35mm film. So, this camera was the prototype for later DSLR cameras with a CCD-sensor chip in APS-format. It has a built-in flash.

APS system cameras were jointly developed by the major manufacturers to be easier to use than conventional 35mm. They use an automatic load film cartridge. Introduced in 1996, the timing wasn’t right. Digital cameras started to become more popular in early 2000’s, and by 2004, manufacture of APS cameras ended. Film cartridges continued to be produced until 2011. However, out of date film is still available, and it can be processed by some specialist companies.
