Canon Exclusive Digital Trinity for Superb HD Image Quality The result is stunningly lifelike images with vivid detail Canon DIGIC DV II Image Processor Canon Full HD CMOS Image Sensor Genuine Canon HD Video Lens CANON HD VIDEO LENS FULL HD CMOS IMAGE SENSOR Experience the superb quality of Genuine Canon Optics The Canon name is synonymous with optical excellence. More than seven decades of manufacturing lenses for professional broadcast and photography have given Canon superiority in its optical products, and a legendary reputation among professional videographers and photographers. High Definition video lenses use an aspherical lens to achieve low chromatic aberration with high resolution, and they use super spectra coating technology to lower flare and ghosting. A gradation ND system ensures better exposure in bright shooting situations. Perfected over decades, ideal for HD video Canon High Definition camcorders have a Full HD decided edge thanks to Canon's longstand- CMOS ing expertise in the design and manufacture of CMOS image sensors for its celebrated EOS Digital SLR cameras. The Full HD CMOS image sensor With noise reduction captures images at 1920 x 1080 pixels to create true HD movies, and onchip noise reduction technology ensures that even in dimly-lit scenes, the signals from each pixel are as pure as possible. The resulting Full HD video is stunningly lifelike, with brilliant clarity in every detail. DIGIC DV II IMAGE PROCESSOR Spherical aberration of spherical lens Most advanced technology delivers exceptional clarity Canon designed its exclusive DIGIC DV image processing technology DIGIC DV II specifically for superior image quality, and the technology reaches a new level of excellence in the next generation: DIGIC DV II. DIGIC DV II High Definition digital signal processing ensures the highest image quality for both HD video and still images. Color reproduction is rich and accurate, especially in skin tones and scenes that are particularly dark or light. An advanced hybrid noise reduction system creates images with exceptional clarity.
