I needed a 2nd camera for our Live Stream and upgraded to this camera from the XA30. I love it. Quality, High Definition recording with great sound quality! I love the option of using HDMI or SDI. The HDMI in my XA30 is waring and not consistent. SDI is more secure.

I am a little Bias with the Canon XA Line, I LOVE THEM! I already have a XA30, it is a work-horse. I have used the XA45 for about a month now and the picture quality is better then my XA30 and is easier to use. My volunteers love the XA45 better as well because it is very user friendly. I am happy it comes with the HDMI AND SDI outputs because my HDMI on the XA30 is shorting out and will have to get it fixed or get another camera. With the 2 outputs, I don't have to worry about a black screen in mid-production. I use these for our church live stream and we have gotten a lot of compliments on the quality of our stream. I highly recommend!

This is a great little camera with 4K capabilities and great inputs and outputs. Easy to use.
Canon offers journalists and broadcasters a new line of professional camcorders with the new XA45. The XA45 features a 1/2.3" CMOS sensor, two XLR audio inputs, one mini-HDMI output, as well as an additional BNC 3G-SDI output. The 3G-SDI terminal, in particular, enables quick and reliable transmission of uncompressed video with timecode and audio embedded directly to mobile workstations. The XA45 weighs around three pounds and comes with a built-in microphone and headphone jack, making it perfect for journalists and one-person production teams that are always on the move. It also features a 20x HD optical zoom and supports 4k UHD recording for crisp and detailed footage even when zoomed in. Get quality footage and produce videos on the go without the bulk from additional equipment with the Canon XA45.
For fast performance in both capture and transmission, excellent for the dynamic world of Electronic News Gathering (ENG) as well as journalistic, documentary, corporate and higher education video production, look no further than the XA45 Professional Camcorder.
Before NAB 2019 kicks off in Las Vegas, Canon is announcing four exciting new camcorders to their existing professional lineup. The Canon XA40 and XA45 are new offerings for journalists and broadcasters, while the XA50 and XA55 have creative video production capabilities. READ MORE...
Featuring an advanced 4K UHD CMOS Pro Image Sensor, a powerful DIG!C DV 6 Image Processor and a phenomenal 20x High Definition optical zoom lens, the XA45 camcorder captures expansive, high-quality 4K UHD video. Dual SD card slots that are compatible with universal SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards provide super-high capacity and ultra-fast data transfer. Its 3G-SDI terminal lets it quickly and reliably transmit uncompressed video with timecode and audio embedded directly to broadcast vans and workstations.
The XA45 Professional Camcorder features a Genuine Canon 20x Optical Zoom Lens that provides a highly versatile zoom range with a 35mm equivalent of 29.3-601mm to help capture newsworthy recordings near and far.
Slow and Fast Motion Modes allow the XA45 Professional Camcorder to record a different frame rate than the playback frame rate for a fast or slow motion effect during playback. Since the camera is recording real frames and modifying the playback rate, there is virtually no quality loss and maximum image quality is maintained. Additionally, interval recording allows the user to record frames at specified intervals, providing time-lapse recording of up to 1200x and slow motion down to 0.4x of the original speed.
The XA45 Professional Camcorder represents Canon's 4K UHD System, delivering truly excellent image quality and reproduction for most any news-gathering application. With its 20x Optical Zoom Video lens, its 4K UHD CMOS Pro Image Sensor and the powerful DiG!C DV 6 Image Processor working together to capture and process the images at hand, the XA45 is positioned to deliver HD video that is nothing short of stunning.
The 3.0-inch 460,000 dot LCD display provides vivid colors and high contrast. A wide-view angle (over 80° at all angles) aids in composition versatility, and regular chromaticity adjustments, which are prompted by the camcorder, help ensure correct brightness and faithful color reproduction.
Weighing less than three pounds including the detachable handle, battery and lens hood – and less than two pounds without – the XA45 Professional Camcorder is ideal for high-action shoots when both speed and mobility are essential, and where keeping a low profile is an added benefit. Though small in size, this camcorder sacrifices nothing when it comes to professional functionality.
The XA45 Professional Camcorder features an Infrared Mode allowing the capture of video in conditions with little to no ambient light. Compared to the XA25 and XA20, the XA45 can shoot at brightness levels that are approximately 1.4 times more sensitive, and allows low-light capture by removing the infrared cutoff filter from the optical path. Its specially designed lens coating allows the infrared light to pass through to the image sensor.
Not only does the XA45 Professional Camcorder provide the user with incredible control over the image, it also provides immense creative freedom when it comes to inputs and outputs.
