Record direct to DVD |
|
| Record memories directly to DVDs and store still shots on a miniSD card with the DC310 camcorder. 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. Simply shoot, and the DC310 ensures that you record onto a blank part of the DVD. The joystick control combined with the Visual Index makes it easy to scroll through footage. You can even select shots and arrange them in a playlist. It's like editing your video right in your camcorder. |

37x optical zooms lens and 41x advanced zoom |
|
| Brilliant optical quality is part of every Canon broadcast TV lens, digital camera, and camcorder — the DC310 is no exception. It gives you brilliant video and digital photographs. The quality begins with the 37x optical zoom lens and the 41x advanced zoom technology. The lens is precisely matched to the camcorder's CCD and features high-quality glass with a unique, super spectra coating developed exclusively by Canon to reduce flare and ghosting for a clean image. Combined with the 2000x digital zoom, you can capture every shot — whether it's a wide view of the whole family at Thanksgiving, or a close-up of your child on stage. And thanks to Canon's superior electronic expertise, the DC310's image stabilization system corrects camcorder shake instantly. The built-in, high-quality image stabilizer allows you to shoot professional-looking, rock-steady video — whether you're recording sporting events, your child's birthday party, or a long focal length shot without a tripod. Your life never sits still, and the DC310 helps you capture it all. |

Brilliant video |
|
| DIGIC DV II is the next generation of Canon's exclusive DIGIC DV signal processing technology. Even though video and still images have different color requirements, DIGIC DV II digital signal processing ensures optimal image quality for both video and still images. Thanks to DIGIC DV II 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. Level, well-composed shots are simple with the Level and Grid Marker features. Line up the horizon and other horizontal lines with the Level Marker in the viewfinder for level landscapes. Or, use the Grid Marker to help compose the perfect shot. Both markers can be set to white or grey for enhanced visibility, no matter what the background. Smooth Zoom Control allows you to choose between three fixed-zoom speeds to ensure smooth, steady zooms automatically. |

Widescreen HR Recording |
|
| 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. So why is the way you record widescreen images so important? Because you want an image made for widescreen, not adapted for widescreen. Widescreen is the future — every HD television is widescreen. By using the entire width of the image sensor, the DC310 captures your video in true 16:9 format. What difference does it make? It's simple. With more pixels captured, you get better image quality. Other camcorders force the wider picture into a smaller space on the sensor giving you a less true image, with fewer pixels and lower quality. The viewfinder on your DC310 displays the image in a "letterbox" view — from side to side and top to bottom, what you see will be what you get. Not only that, but the DC310's big, 2.7" LCD screen and 0.35" widescreen viewfinder let you see exactly what you're recording. To make it even easier, a Widescreen Button lets you switch from standard 4:3 to 16:9 Widescreen Mode at the touch of your finger. The DC310 gives you the opportunity to own a camcorder that shoots as wide as your widescreen TV. |

Stunning digital photography |
|
| Now, you can leave your digital still camera at home. That's because, with Canon's DoubleShot technology, you don't just get video and photography — you get the best of both. Plus, you get a wealth of photo features found on advanced digital still cameras. The DC310 helps you make accurate exposures with its histogram display. Special Scene Modes also ensure accurate exposures under a wide variety of difficult lighting conditions. Image Effects let you adjust the image depending on your subject. You also get 9-point AiAF (Auto Intelligent Autfocus) for sharp focus even if your subject isn't in the center of your shot. And, Simultaneous Photo Recording lets you capture a digital photograph while recording video. No matter how you take your photos, you have the choice of capturing those still images onto either DVD or an optional miniSD card. |

Audio excellence |
|
| To match the brilliance of its video image quality, the DC310 records audio with Dolby Digital Stereo. This ensures a complete movie theater experience in the comfort of your living room as you share vivid memories with your friends and families. |
|
Quick Start |
|
| With Quick Start, you'll never miss a shot again as you rush to turn your camcorder on and start recording. Simply push the Quick Start button to put your camcorder 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. |

Share your videos and photographs |
|
| Of course, with the convenience of DVDs, it's easy to share your video with friends and family simply by letting them view your finalized discs in their DVD players. You can also watch the video you've just shot by connecting your DC310 to your TV and viewing your unfinalized DVD. (Your DC310 comes with a Composite output terminal). But with the DC310, you can also share digital photos via e-mail by transferring images directly to your PC using the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed terminal. You can also print directly from your DC310 to any PictBridge-compatible printer, or store your digital photos on a miniSD Memory Card, which is half the size of a standard SD card. |

Additional features |
|
| A built-in lens cover means you never have to go looking for your lens cover again. Plus, you don't have the bother of your lens cap dangling from your camcorder. An easy menu system has been designed to make it easy for you to operate your DC310. Nine digital effects and nine fades (in Camera Mode) add professional-looking touches to your videos. There are also 21 selectable display languages to choose from. |
