Canon Exclusive- Genuine Canon 41x Advanced Zoom.

Advanced Zoom extends the power of your zoom and is the longest zoom Canon has ever offered. In both wide angle and telephoto positions, there is virtually no loss in image quality throughout the range. How is this accomplished? With a Genuine Canon lens which remains in constant motion through the entire extended zoom range aided by our proprietary DIGIC DV II image processor.

Record Direct to DVD.

The DC310 digital camcorder lets you record directly to DVDs, and lets you shoot and share video through a variety of options.
Only 3" (8cm) in diameter, the DC310's DVD-R/-RW discs are compatible with most DVD players and can store up to 30 minutes of video in standard mode and 60 minutes of video in long play mode. They also record to DVD-R DL (dual layer) discs that can store up to 108 minutes of video.

Canon Exclusive- DIGIC DV II.

The Canon DIGIC DV II Image Processor is the next generation of Canon's exclusive DIGIC DV signal processing technology. Because video and still images have different color requirements, DIGIC DV II digital signal processing ensures the best image quality for both by specifically optimizing the settings for video and stills. Thanks to DIGIC DV ll image processing, the DC310 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 images that are crystal clear.

Brilliant Video.

The DC310 records true High Resolution Widescreen for picture perfect video. Canon's Widescreen HR Mode uses the entire width of the image sensor, capturing true 16:9 widescreen. What difference does it make? It's simple. The more pixels which are captured, the better your final image quality is.

Compact Size and Convenience.

All of the convenience of recording onto DVD is found in the DC310s slim, lightweight, gracefully designed body. It's compact- only 2.6" wide x 3.5" high x 5" deep (not including grip belt) and weighs just under a pound, making it easy to take the DC310 with you wherever you go.

Quick Start.

With Quick Start, you'll never miss a shot again as you rush to turn your camcorder on and start recording. With this feature, you simply push the Quick Start button to put your DC310 in stand-by mode. Then, with your camcorder in stand-by mode, you can simply push it again and the DC310 begins to record in less than a second. With Quick Start, it's easy to capture the spontaneous and surprising moments that happen in your life. It also saves battery power so you get more recording between charges.
