High Definition) format Flash Memory camcorders. AVCHD uses an MPEG-4 AVC (H.264) video codec recording true 1080 High Definition resolution video. An advantage of the AVCHD format is that it captures twice as much video using less storage which enhances the extended recording time possible with Flash Memory up to 6 hours 5 minutes in LP mode with the internal memory. The advantages of Flash Memory go beyond the added recording time. You'll also appreciate the quick response time because it doesn't have to wait for moving parts. Press the record button and your VIXIA HF10 starts recording video faster than you've ever seen before. In addition when you review your footage it will come up more quickly as well. Another plus is the VIXIA HF10's lower power consumption rate allowing your battery to last longer. It's just what you need so you don't miss that pivotal play on the field or the moment when they say I do. While we certainly hope you keep your VIXIA HF10 securely in your hand while shooting if it happens to slip or you accidentally knock it against something you'll be happy to know that Flash Memory makes your camcorder more shock resistant than other recording storage systems. It also minimizes the chance of data loss due to damage to your recording media or the moving parts in other camcorders. Making this new technology even more convenient to use is the VIXIA HF10's compact size and light weight. Measuring only 2.9 wide 2.5 high and 5.1 deep it combines big video storage capacity in a small easy to carry body. Dual Flash Memory: 16GB internal Flash drive SDHC card slot What makes the VIXIA HF10 stand out in the category of Flash Memory camcorders is its Dual Memory capability. You can capture video on both the camcorder's internal 16 GB Flash Memory as well as onto an SD/SDHC Memory Card. The VIXIA HF10 records first onto the built-in 16 GB internal memory and then onto the memory card. Video stored on the internal memory can also be copied onto the memory card which can then be inserted into your computer or HDTV's card reader slot for immediate viewing. It is also possible to transfer still images recorded to the SD/SDHC card to the internal memory. You can also use higher capacity memory cards to further increase the video storage of your VIXIA HF10. Canon Exclusive: 3.3 Megapixel Full HD CMOS Sensor The VIXIA HF10 captures 1920x1080 High Definition video through its Canon designed and manufactured 1/3.2 3.3 Megapixel Full HD CMOS image sensor similar to the CMOS image sensors in Canon's EOS Series Digital SLR cameras. Compared to a CCD the VIXIA HF10's CMOS's high color resolution and advanced color reproduction gives brilliant results. It is also unique in featuring Canon's proprietary noise reduction technologies for crisp sharp images. Low noise technology also means that even in dimly lit scenes the signal from each pixel is as pure as possible with minimal noise or other aberrations. It's the ideal sensor for HD. The VIXIA HF10 uses an RGB Primary Color Filter with Bayer Placement Pattern that separates light into red green and blue color components. This results in vibrant images with deep rich accurate color and natural-looking tones similar to what you'd obtain from 3CCD camcorders. In addition the Bayer Placement Pattern delivers sharp high definition images with true-to-life color reproduction. As an added benefit the CMOS sensor provides outstanding image capture in low light conditions. Full HD Lens-to-Screen (1920 x 1080 Capture and Recording) The Canon VIXIA HF10 not only captures images in Full HD but records and outputs at 1920 x 1080* as well so you get Full HD from lens to screen. Your memories are preserved in stunning clarity and ready for playback on your HDTV. *A Class 4 or higher SDHC memory card is required.

The VIXIA HF10 comes with an outstanding High Definition video lens -- a 12x HD Genuine Canon zoom. It's the lens you need to record long shots of your child on the soccer field wide shots of beautiful landscapes and everything in-between. And because it comes with four zoom speeds three pre-set and one variable you always get smooth steady professional looking zoom shots. Super Spectra Coating technology results in images with minimal flare and ghosting. Plus the new lens' aspheric design reduces aberration and increases resolution ensuring crisp sharp video and enhancing the HD image quality. Not only that but a new gradation neutral density (ND) system gives you better exposures in bright shooting situations. In addition for those times when you need to get a particular shot from a very long distance this flexible lens also has a 200x digital zoom. Canon Exclusive: DIGIC DV II Image Processor The Canon DIGIC DV II Image Processor is the next generation of Canon's exclusive DIGIC DV signal processing technology. Designed specifically for HD DIGIC DV II ensures optimal image quality. It also ensures optimal image quality for still images even though video and still images have different color requirements. DIGIC DV II is just another one of Canon's advanced technologies that make the VIXIA HF10 an exceptional performer. Thanks to Canon DIGIC DV II image processing the VIXIA HF10 produces video with improved color reproduction -- especially in skin tones and dark and light scenes. It also uses a hybrid noise reduction system that employs two types of noise reduction -- for high definition images that are crystal clear. Plus the Canon DIGIC DV II Image Processor features improved continuous shooting of digital photographs with the VIXIA HF10. You can shoot five (3.1 Megapixel) still images per second and enjoy faster processing of your images to your memory card (1.4x normal card; 2.5x Hi Speed card). It also helps lower power consumption for longer battery life. Canon Exclusive: SuperRange Optical Image Stabilization The high-resolution images of High Definition video demand a steady hand. It's easier to get those clear steady images with the VIXIA HF10 thanks to Canon's innovative SuperRange Optical Image Stabilization. It combines gyro- and image-sensors to give image stabilization through a wider range of camera motions. Some image stabilization systems correct one type of camera motion or vibration better than another. But Canon's SuperRange OIS corrects for a wide range of camcorder motion: the fast vibration you'd experience while recording from a moving car; the medium-speed motion of hand-held recording; and the slower motion of body sway. No matter what you're recording and how you're recording it the VIXIA HF10's stabilization design corrects camcorder shake instantly. SuperRange OIS also delivers steady images when shooting at long focal lengths. In addition optical stabilization keeps your shot steady without a loss in image quality -- something that can't be said for electronic image stabilization. And image stabilization isn't just for video; you can even use it for taking sharper clearer digital photographs with your VIXIA HF10. Thanks to Canon's expertise it's easy to eliminate one of the telltale signs of amateur video and photography. Canon Exclusive: Instant AF (Auto Focus) Another critical objective when shooting in High Definition is achieving a very sharp focus. The VIXIA HF10 camcorder features Canon's revolutionary Instant AF focusing system which offers a dramatic improvement in auto focus speed and accuracy (compared to traditional auto focus systems). The Instant AF feature uses an external sensor in combination with Canon's auto focus system to help significantly decrease the time it takes to find focus even in low light conditions. This system achieves focus instantaneously reducing focus hunting. The benefits of Instant AF are especially seen in high brightness and night shooting situations. With Instant AF it's possible to capture fast accurate focusing even when following a moving subject. Canon Exclusive: 2.7-inch Multi-Angle Vivid Widescreen LCD The 2.7-inch Multi-Angle Vivid Widescreen LCD on the VIXIA HF10 lets you see more of what your camcorder is recording. Using a hard coat Anti-Reflection surface and improved color reproduction the scene in the viewfinder is a more accurate indication of what you're capturing in the camcorder. An added benefit of this Canon Exclusive is the wider range of viewing angle possible with this new LCD screen. With less glare and deeper contrasts groups of people can gather around it and see the image displayed more clearly than ever before. 24p Cinema Mode 24p Cinema Mode enables all aspiring moviemakers to achieve a professional film-look. You can change the camcorder's frame capture rate to 24p (recorded at 60i) which provides the appearance of the same frame rate as movie film. In addition you can use the VIXIA HF10's CINEMA setting which changes the color and tonal characteristics evoking the look and feel of a movie shown in a theater. For added flexibility these settings can be used together or independently. 30p Progressive Mode This is a unique feature that only Canon offers in the consumer camcorder market. You would otherwise have to look to professional video cameras in order to have this sophisticated tool at your command. In addition to the standard interlaced video frame rate of 60i you may choose to set the VIXIA HV30 to capture video in 30p which is (30 progressive frames) particularly useful for footage to be used on the Internet.
