Canon HD CMOS PRO sensor
The HD CMOS PRO sensor is designed and made by Canon for its professional camcorders. The light gathering area of the pixels is 160% bigger than conventional CMOS sensors, delivering a wider dynamic range and advanced low-light performance.

Optical Intelligent IS
Intelligent IS is the perfect solution to camera shake. It automatically detects the scene and selects exactly the right optical Image Stabilizer settings from 4 modes to counteract movement and prevent blur. It ensures sharp, detailed videos in every situation - leaving you free to concentrate on shooting.

Audio Scene Select
It’s simple to make your movies sound as good as they look with Audio Scene Select and a high-sensitivity, built-in zoom microphone.. Just select from 5 scene modes and audio settings are optimised automatically.

Canon HD Video lens
A high-quality, Canon HD Video lens with 10x optical zoom features an iris diaphragm for soft background blurring.

Creative cinematic features
Use Story Creator to develop your video skills and effortlessly create memorable short videos with a story - just choose a theme and follow the in-built scene suggestions. Inspire your creativity with Cinema-Look Filters and add fun effects to your movies without a PC using Touch Decoration. Write messages straight on the Touch-screen with the Stylus Pen, add stamps or active animations like shooting stars and mix in still images.

Fingertip control
Operation is easy with a high-resolution 7.5cm (3.0”) gesture-based Touch-screen LCD, which gives you intuitive fingertip control of shooting and playback functions.

Effortless shooting
Creating high-quality movies is effortless with Smart Auto. Fully automatic, it intelligently selects shooting settings from 38 scenes – leaving you free to concentrate on your subject. Face Detection optimises the settings for great people shots and Instant AF ensures fast and accurate focusing.
