Does Not Play Tape

Includes Canon HV10 Camcorder ONLY, Does NOT include Battery or Tape

The Canon HV10 'PAL' HDV Camcorder brings the power of HD recording to the consumer in one of the smallest and lightest HDV camcorders ever.

The HV10 captures images in genuine 1080i resolution, so that you are shooting in real HDTV, all on a mini HDV tape.

Canon improves upon the standard CCD camcorders by using a CMOS sensor to generate images. The 2.7MP CMOS Sensor tends to process faster than a CCD for richer color and sharper detail.

When you add a 10x Optical Zoom and a DV II processor you get ultra-sharp color and incredible detail even from a distance.

As impressive as the HV10 is as a camcorder, it gets even better as a 3.1 Megapixel digital still camera. Store images on tiny Mini-SD memory cards with the Mini-SD card slot. The optical image stabilizer and advanced AF auto focus make it easy to get crisp clean video and photos.

Choosing and using the enhanced features such as Smooth Zoom Zebra Pattern and Level Shot Control, are easy thanks to the 2.7" LCD screen.

Canon fits everything you can ask for from a camcorder into the HV10. At the same time it is small enough to fit comfortably into your pocket.

2.98MP True HD CMOS Sensor (1920 x 1080)

Canon improves upon the standard CCD camcorders by using a CMOS sensor to generate images. The 2.9MP CMOS Sensor tends to process faster than a CCD for richer color and sharper detail.

DIGIC DV ll Processor

Thanks to DIGIC DV II image processing, the HV10 produces video with improved color reproduction ideal for skin tones, and dark and light scenes. It also uses a noise reduction system that uses two types of noise reduction, for HD images that are crystal clear.

Instant AF (Auto Focus)

The Instant AF feature uses an external sensor, together with Canon's auto-focus system, to help significantly decrease the time it takes to find the focus, even in low light conditions. This system achieves focus instantaneously, eliminating the struggle needed to find the correct focus.

Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS)

While a digital image stabilizer compensates for shaking by adjusting the picture frame by frame, an Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS) avoids the shaking before the image is captured. OIS uses a a floating lens element that is moved relative to the rest of the lens, to maintain a balanced picture

Variable Zoom Speed Control

How often have you watched a home video and gotten motion sickness when the zoom goes from 0 to 60 in 1/10 seconds? The Variable Zoom Speed Control maintains the speed of your zoom so that everything looks smooth and professional.

Level and Grid Markers

Not sure if your shot of the sunset over the New York skyline is actually level? The Level marker places a horizontal line across your screen so you can make sure your shooting at the perfect angle.
