ELECTRONIC AND OPTICAL IMAGE STABILISATION  
With Optical and Electronic Image Stabilizer (OIS and  
EIS), Canon camcorders suppress unwanted shake to  
keep your images clear – especially important when  
working at higher magnifications.  
EIS adjusts the image on the camera sensor and draws  
little extra power from your battery. OIS offers the ultimate  
level of stabilised images – for both movies and stills –  
and even works in 16:9 mode.  
All camcorders displayed have a  
high zoom ratio. Specific zoom  
ratio depends on model.

HIGH ZOOM RATIO  
Because you can’t always be close to the  
action, Canon’s camcorders feature super  
high magnification zoom ratios. Capture  
the drama of a sweeping panorama and  
then zoom all the way in to fill your frame  
with a distant child’s smile. Because Canon  
lenses utilise only the finest optical glass,  
even in our entry level models, you can  
zoom all the way in to your camcorder’s  
highest optical magnification and the  
picture quality stays crisp, clear and bright –  
even in low light conditions.  
EASY button  
keeps it simple.

The following camcorders

DIGITAL STILL FUNCTIONALITY  
It is no surprise that the inventor and  
manufacturer of many of the world’s  
finest digital cameras has also built  
many advanced functions into its  
camcorders. Normally, these  
Mechanical shutters for super-sharp  
results, selectable 9–point AiAF auto  
focus to keep even off centre subjects  
sharply focused, built-in still flash,  
Special Scene modes to ensure great  
results in tricky conditions: your  
functionalities would be found only on  
single function cameras.

that great shot for the photo album.

Canon’s selectable 9-point AiAF auto focus gives you control over  
which focus point is active – allowing you to keep off centre

Simultaneous Photo Recording  
Continuous Shooting  
NIGHT MODE/SUPER NIGHT MODE  
You don’t want to be forced to stop shooting just because the  
sun goes down. Which is why Canon digital video cameras  
feature Night Mode. Night Mode lets more light into the  
camcorder by slowing down the shutter, allowing you to capture  
excellent quality and vivid colour footage – even in dim conditions  
or while indoors. When it is pitch black, the Super Night Mode  
comes on to light your scene and keep you recording.  
Without Super Night Mode  
Night Mode is included in all  
camcorders, while the following  
models also have the more  
advanced Super Night Mode:  
MV850i  
MV880X  
MVX330i  
MVX350i  
MVX45i  
With Super Night Mode  
Using the Mini Video Light in dark conditions not only  
brightens your footage – it helps bring out vibrant  
colours and prevents the ’grainy’ effect of low light video.  
Better resolution,  
better results.  
EFFECTIVE MOVIE PIXELS/EFFECTIVE STILL PIXELS  
The light recording sensor in a camcorder is made up of  
thousands of tiny pixels. The number of pixels a camcorder has  
influences its ability to capture detail. Generally, the more pixels,  
the finer the detail your digital video camera captures. Higher  
resolutions translate into smoother, more even tones, cleaner  
detail, and printed photos that can be enlarged to a greater  
extent without a noticeable drop in image quality.  
The following is an easy guide to each camcorder’s CCD sensor resolution and  
an explanation of how to translate this into stunning photo prints:
