Focus on fun.DIGITAL CAMCORDER RANGE

HIGH RESOLUTION 16:9Don’t be confused by the numbers: in simple terms, thisis widescreen. Use 16:9 to fill the corners of your widescreen television with majestic panoramas, bringing allthe drama of cinema to your memories. Many camcorder

Widescreen modes produce lower quality because theyliterally cut off the top and bottom of your image to createthe effect. In contrast, Canon’s 16:9 mode uses more –not less – of the sensor, giving you a higher resolutionresult worthy of any home entertainment system.

The white box displays thenormal 4:3 ratio. The wholeimage shows the benefit ofthe high resolution 16:9 ratio.

Quality withoutcomplication.The MV800, MVX300 and MVX40 ranges of Canon Digital Video Cameras allowyou to capture great memories so easily, you’ll be completely unaware thatsome of Canon’s finest technology is working with you behind the scenes.Unaware, that is, until you review your superb results. With features such as ImageStabilisation, precision zoom optics and digital still capability to make many digitalcameras blush, these camcorders pack a punch – despite being incredibly light andcompact – and surprisingly affordable.

ELECTRONIC AND OPTICAL IMAGE STABILISATIONWith Optical and Electronic Image Stabilizer (OIS andEIS), Canon camcorders suppress unwanted shake tokeep your images clear – especially important whenworking at higher magnifications.

EIS adjusts the image on the camera sensor and drawslittle extra power from your battery. OIS offers the ultimatelevel of stabilised images – for both movies and stills –and even works in 16:9 mode.

HIGH ZOOM RATIOBecause you can’t always be close to theaction, Canon’s camcorders feature superhigh magnification zoom ratios. Capturethe drama of a sweeping panorama andthen zoom all the way in to fill your framewith a distant child’s smile. Because Canonlenses utilise only the finest optical glass,even in our entry level models, you canzoom all the way in to your camcorder’shighest optical magnification and thepicture quality stays crisp, clear and bright –even in low light conditions.

Better resolution,better results.EFFECTIVE MOVIE PIXELS/EFFECTIVE STILL PIXELSThe light recording sensor in a camcorder is made up ofthousands of tiny pixels. The number of pixels a camcorder hasinfluences its ability to capture detail. Generally, the more pixels,the finer the detail your digital video camera captures. Higherresolutions translate into smoother, more even tones, cleanerdetail, and printed photos that can be enlarged to a greaterextent without a noticeable drop in image quality.

Night Mode lets more light into thecamcorder by slowing down the shutter, allowing you to captureexcellent quality and vivid colour footage – even in dim conditionsor while indoors. When it is pitch black, the Super Night Modecomes on to light your scene and keep you recording.
