Canon today announced its HR10 high definition camcorder that features a 10x optical zoom lens and a CMOS image sensor capable of recording at 1920 x 1080 HD resolution. A relatively compact camcorder, the HR10 also includes a 3.1-mega-pixel sensor for capturing still shots. The HR10 allows you to extract still images from videos you've recorded, which can then be stored on a miniSD card. Canon has made use of the Advanced Video Codec High Definition (AVCHD) technology that enables it to record on to 3-inch DVD disks, which can be played on AVCHD compatible DVD players or most Blu-ray players. "Research shows that consumers are looking for the convenience of DVD, as well as high-quality HD video when choosing a camcorder. With the introduction of the Canon HR10 High Definition Camcorder, we provide consumers with a better way to record and preserve their memories in High Definition," said Yuichi Ishizuka, senior vice president and general manager of the Consumer Imaging Group, Canon U.S.A. The video camera also includes three fully programmable zooming speeds to help ensure steady footage. The HR10 also includes a 24p Cine Mode feature, which produces a "film-look" by changing the camera's frame rate to 24p—the same frame rate used when shooting movies. According to the company, users can edit the color and tone of a scene to resemble films seen in theaters. The HR10 comes with a 2.7-inch LCD screen with an anti-glare coating, which according to the company, can be seen from up to 135 degrees at any angle. The Canon HR10 will be available in August and should retail for $1199. |
