About Canon HV10 HDV High Definition Mini DV Camcorder - SKU#1851174

• A veritable "Best of" compilation of Canon breakthrough technologies, the HV10 HDV camcorder combines Canon's world-class HD optics, with Super Range Optical Image Stabilization, DIGIC DV II image processor, and a Canon designed and manufactured Full HD resolution (1920x1080 video) CMOS sensor, similar to those found in Canon's full line of Digital SLR cameras. Additionally, new "Instant AF" auto-focus technology, and the ability to take 3.1 megapixel photos, makes this one powerful device that fits comfortably in the palm of the hand.
• For the first time, Canon has incorporated CMOS into its HDV camcorder to capture the high resolution needed for HD video with a single sensor. These sensors provide advantages over traditional CCD sensors in speed, versatility, and lower power consumption for longer battery life.
• Canon's CMOS sensors capture higher resolution HD video, and even in dimly lit scenes each pixel delivers the purest possible image. The 1 /2.7" sensor incorporates an RGB primary color filter with Bayer placement to deliver a sharp HD image with vibrant and accurate color reproduction. This sensor supplies 1080 HD video to an HDV video tape, while 3.1 megapixel still images can be recorded to a Mini-SD card.
• Canon's high quality HD lens, the keystone to acquiring crisp HD video, stems from the company's expertise as a professional grade photographic and broadcast lenses manufacturer. Behind the built-in automatic lens cover lies a 10X optical/ 200X digital HD Canon zoom lens.
• The HV10 HDV camcorder is the first consumer-level camcorder that features Canon's Super-Range Optical Image Stabilization to help deliver smooth, steady video, even at longer focal lengths. The system uses two detection methods (gyro and vector) to sense the widest range of vibrations from hand-held shake, to vibration from a moving vehicle. By using optical stabilization, it can compensate for a greater degree of camera shake and avoid any loss in image quality, unlike electronic image stabilizers.
• The HV10 HDV camcorder also incorporates a new autofocus system that is the first of its kind on a consumer level camcorder. Since it is critical to achieve very sharp focus when shooting in High Definition, the camcorder features Canon's revolutionary new Instant AF focusing system. It offers a dramatic improvement in auto focus speed and accuracy (compared to traditional autofocus systems).
• The Canon HV10 HDV camcorder features Canon's DIGIC DV II image processor, to handle the vast amount of information required for HD recording. DIGIC DV II helps to ensure low noise, a wide dynamic range, and accurate color reproduction for both video and photos.
• The HV10 is also the world's smallest and lightest true HDV camcorder, weighing in at a mere 0.97 pounds. Approximately 2" wide by 4" tall, the HV10 is a pocketable masterpiece that is designed for easy one-handed operation, with all of the controls at the user's fingertips.
