Tiptop Electronics offers Canon XA-10 HD

Professional PAL Camcorder available for

just £1,290 from Tip Top Electronics UK

with fast shipping.

The Canon XA10 HD Professional PAL

Camcorder is a fully featured, ultra-

compact pro video camera that shares

nearly all the functionality of the XF100,

but in an even smaller, run-and-gun form

factor. Sporting a 64 GB internal flash drive

and two SDXC-compatible card slots, the

XA10 can record literally for days without

running out of memory.

Able to capture AVCHD video at bitrates up

to 24 Mb/s, the camcorder's native 1920 x

1080 CMOS sensor also lets you choose 50i

and PF25 frame rates for customizing the

look of your footage (PF25 is 25

progressive frames per second recorded as

50i.). Bringing further professional oomph

to that footage is a Genuine Canon 10x HD

video lens, with lowlight sensitivity to f/1.8

and a 35mm equivalent zoom range of

30.4-304mm.

Flash Memory

The XA10 Professional Camcorder allows users to record up to 24 hours of clear high

definition video to a 64GB internal flash drive or to two SDXC-compatible memory cards.

With Relay Recording, the camcorder automatically switches video recording from the

internal drive to the SD memory cards when the memory becomes full.

Video can be copied from the XA10's internal drive to removable SD memory cards. That

makes it easy to insert the card into your computer or HDTV's card reader and view your

recorded footage immediately. Double Slot Recording allows recording to two SD cards

simultaneously, providing an automatic backup while shooting.

AVCHD Codec

The XA10 features the AVCHD codec. AVCHD (Advanced Video Coding High Definition) was

announced in 2006 and is quickly becoming the standard for professional camcorders.

AVCHD utilizes MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 compression technology similar to the technology used

in Canon's HD DSLRs. In addition to professional grade camcorders, AVCHD is very popular

in the consumer market and as a result most nonlinear editing software, both professional

and consumer, have full support for the codec; this makes for easy compatibility with the

XA10 no matter what system you choose.

AVCHD is used for encoding Blu-ray Discs, meaning the XA10 is ideal for capturing content

for delivery in this format, as well as making conversion to web-based content in H.264

format easy. Additionally, the XA10 records up to 24 Mb/s, the maximum bit rate of

AVCHD, at 1920 x 1080 and 4:2:0 color space for sharp, vivid, and fully professional quality

image capture.

Genuine Canon 10x HD Video Lens

The XA10 features a Genuine Canon 10x HD Video Lens which offers a 35mm equivalent of

30.4-304mm. It delivers unsurpassed image quality, the versatility of a wide angle of view

and smooth and professional looking background images thanks to a sophisticated 8-blade

iris. A dedicated manual focus ring allows accurate and precise control.

Canon Native 1920 x 1080 CMOS Image Sensor

Designed and manufactured exclusively by Canon, the XA10 Professional PAL Camcorder

incorporates a native 1/3-inch, 1920 x 1080 CMOS image sensor, delivering superb Full HD

video recording with minimal noise. The high sensitivity and wide dynamic range of this

sensor are what demanding users expect from Canon.

Canon DIGIC DV III Image Processor

The XA10 Professional PAL Camcorder features Canon's powerful DIGIC DV III Image

Processor, which provides enhanced shading, lifelike tonal gradations, new custom picture

settings and lower power consumption. DIGIC DV III is also the high-speed engine which

powers a variety of Canon technologies: Genuine Canon Face Detection, Touch & Track,

and Cinema-Look Filters. On-the-go videographers will appreciate the ability to track one

subject in a crowd of people.

Smart Auto

Smart Auto uses the power of Canon's DIGIC DV III Image Processor to intelligently detect and

analyze faces, brightness, color, distance, and movement, and then automatically selects the

best settings for the scene. Among the 38 scenes available in Smart Auto, a standout is Tele

Macro. Tele Macro automatically zooms the lens of the camcorder to the telephoto end,

setting the minimum object distance to approximately 1.3 feet (from 3.3 feet). This gives you

the opportunity to shoot spectacular close-ups with the dramatic look of a shallow depth of

field.

3.5" Touch Panel LCD Screen

A 3.5-inch, 922,000-pixel LCD monitor provides an ample, accurate area for critical focus

confirmation and approximately 100% field of view. The display opens on the left side of

the camera body.

Touch & Track

Touch and Track delivers precise tracking of the focus and exposure on any subject –

people, animals, vehicles and more. Simply select the point of interest on the Touch Panel

LCD and you'll have the subject in sharp focus, regardless of where in the frame it moves

during the shot. The exposure will be perfectly adjusted for subject and conditions. Touch

& Track is the default setting. Focus or exposure may be adjusted independently by turning

off Touch & Track, and turning on Touch Focus or Touch Exposure.

Touch Focus

Touch Focus allows the user to pinpoint a specific area to focus on. This function is similar

to the Push AF feature found other professional camcorders, but can target a subject

anywhere in the frame.

Touch Exposure

Touch Exposure enables exposure to be locked or compensated for the area touched by

the user.
