This script will probably work with other, similar models from the Canon EOS DSLR lineup.
Particularly models that have an APS-C (<full-frame) sensor.

If it doesn't work with your particular model, let me know and I'll fix it ASAP.
I'll just need an example photo taken with your camera to analyze the EXIF metadata.
Cheers.
