Canon VIXIA HV30 Features |
|
|
|
The image quality of HD |
|
| The VIXIA HV30 is the HD camcorder to go along with everything else in your HD world. It captures true 1080 high definition resolution video in 16:9 format, using MiniDV cassette tapes. The VIXIA HV30's true 16:9 widescreen HD image is made for your new HD widescreen TV. High definition and widescreen are the future. Be sure you invest in that future with the HV30. At the same time, this camcorder gives you the flexibility to record in SD (standard definition) mode, too. That means you can enjoy the ultimate in HD video and photo quality, and still shoot SD video for viewing on your non-HD equipment. The VIXIA HV30 comes with an outstanding 10x HD genuine Canon optical zoom lens. It's the lens you need to record long shots of your child on the soccer field, wide shots of beautiful landscapes, and everything in between. And because it comes with three pre-set zoom speeds, you always get smooth, steady, professional looking zoom shots. Super spectra coating technology results in images with minimal flare and ghosting. Plus, the new lens' aspheric design reduces aberration and increases resolution, ensuring crisp, sharp video and enhancing the HD image quality. Not only that, but a new gradation ND system gives you better exposures in right shooting situations. |
|
Full HD CMOS sensor (1920 x 1080) |
|
| The VIXIA HV30 features a Canon designed and manufactured CMOS image sensor. The CMOS image sensors in Canon's EOS series digital SLR cameras result in outstanding digital photographs. In the VIXIA HV30, the CMOS sensor reproduces high-resolution images at 1920 x 1080 resolution with full HD information in video images. Compared to a CCD, the VIXIA HV30's CMOS's high color resolution and advanced color reproduction gives brilliant results. It is also unique in featuring Canon's proprietary noise reduction technologies for crisp, sharp images. Low noise technology also means that even in dimly lit scenes, the signal from each pixel is as pure as possible, with minimal noise or other aberrations. It's the ideal sensor for HD. The VIXIA HV30 also uses an RGB promary color filter with Bayer Pattern that separates light into red, green, and blue color components. This results in vibrant images with deep, rich, accurate color and natural-looking tones similar to what you'd obtain from 3CCD camcorders. In addition, it is the Bayer Pattern that delivers sharp images without creating false colors. As an added benefit, the CMOS sensor provides outstanding image capture in low light conditions. |
|
SuperRange optical image stabilization |
|
| Canon's innovative SuperRange OIS combines gyro- and image-sensors to give image stabilization through a wider range of camera motions. Some image stabilization systems correct one type of camera motion or vibration better than another. But Canon's SuperRange OIS corrects for a wide range of camcorder motion: the fast vibration you'd experience while recording from a moving car; the medium-speed motion of hand-held recording; and the slower motion of body sway. No matter what you're recording and how you're recording it, the VIXIA HV30's stabilization design corrects camcorder shake instantly. SuperRange OIS also delivers steady images when shooting at long focal lengths. In addition, optical stabilization keeps your shot steady without a loss in image quality, which is something that can't be said for electronic image stabilization. And image stabilization isn't just for video; you can use it for taking sharper, clearer digital photographs with your VIXIA HV30. Thanks to Canon's expertise, it's easy to eliminate one of the telltale signs of amateur video and photography. |
|
Instant AF (auto focus) |
|
| Since it is critical to achieve very sharp focus when shooting in high definition, the VIXIA HV30 camcorder features Canon's revolutionary Instant AF focusing system. It offers a dramatic improvement in auto focus speed and accuracy (compared to traditional autofocus systems). The Instant AF feature uses an external sensor, in combination with Canon's autofocus system, to help significantly decrease the time it takes to find focus, even in low light conditions. This system achieves focus instantaneously, reducing focus "hunting". The benefits of Instant AF are especially seen in high brightness and night shooting situations. With Instant AF, it's possible to get fast, accurate focusing, even when following a moving subject. |
|
2.7" multi-angle vivid widescreen LCD |
|
| The 2.7" multi-angle vivid widescreen LCD on the VIXIA HV30 lets you see more of what your camcorder is recording. Using a hard coat AR surface and improved color reproduction, the scene in the viewfinder is more accurate to what you're capturing in the camcorder. An added benefit of this Canon exclusive is the wider range of viewing angle possible with this new LCD screen. With less glare and deeper contrasts, groups of people can gather around it and see the image displayed more clearly than ever before. |
|
Brilliant video |
|
| Thanks to DIGIC DV II image processing, another Canon exclusive, the VIXIA HV30 produces video with improved color reproduction, especially in skin tones, and dark and light scenes. It also uses a hybrid noise reduction system that uses two types of noise reduction, for high definition images that are crystal clear. With the Level Marker feature, it's easy to keep your camera level for more professional looking video. Line up any horizontal lines in your shot (such as the horizon) to the marker and you can be sure your camcorder is level. The HV30's Grid Marker feature lets you compose your shots accurately, according to the grid in your viewfinder. You can even choose two different colors for the grid, depending on the background color of your shot. Some of the most magical shots are taken at the end of the day or long after the sun has set. You won't miss any of them, thanks to the VIXIA HV30's bright mini video light. The light lets you shoot subjects in color in low light up to 4.9 feet away. So, whether it's a shot of a sleeping baby, or a dramatic skyline at night, the VIXIA HV30 captures all the moments you want to record. |

Stunning digital photography |
|
| Canon's advanced image processing technology means your HD camcorder is also a high performance digital camera capable of capturing stunning 2.76 megapixel photos in 4:3 aspect ratio to a miniSD card (2.07 megapixels at 16:9). It's like having an HD digital video camcorder and digital still camera all rolled into one. What's more the VIXIA HV30's many advanced photo features make it a camera that rivals other state-of-the-art digital cameras. With Canon technology, it's not just video and photos. It's the best of both. Like any good digital still camera, the HV30 lets you choose from a range of exposure modes. Auto mode automatically sets the exposure. AV (aperture priority) mode lets you control depth of field by letting you choose the aperture. TV (shutter priority) mode lets you select the shutter speed for sharp action shots. In P (program) mode, the camcorder adjusts camera settings automatically. There are program AE modes on the VIXIA HV30, including portrait, sports, night, snow and beach, sunset, spotlight, and fireworks to get the most out of those shooting situations. You can even record HD video and simultaneously capture a 2 megapixel photo to a memory card. Simply press the photo button while recording and you've got an e-mail ready digital photo to share with family and friends. You can also capture a still image from your recorded video tape during playback. And, your VIXIA HV30's built-in flash lets you capture superb photos indoors and in low light conditions. |

24p and 30p recording options |
|
| 24p Cinema Mode enables all aspiring moviemakers to achieve a professional film-look. You can change the camcorder's frame capture rate to 24p (recorded at 60i), which provides the appearance of the same frame rate as movie film. In addition, you can use the VIXIA HV30's CINE setting, which changes the color and tonal characteristics, evoking the look and feel of a movie shown in a theater. For added flexibility, these settings can be used together or independently. In addition to the standard interlaced video frame rate of 60i, you may choose to set the VIXIA HV30 to capture video in 30p which is (30 progressive frames) particularly useful for footage to be used on the internet. In addition, this setting gives enhanced quality to still images captured after recording. This mode is excellent for action shots and sports. |
|
Edit and share your video |
|
| You can edit and share your video with the VIXIA HV30. Once you're connected to your computer, DV streaming and ultra-fast transfer of movies is a breeze. And because the VIXIA HV30 uses the IEEE 1394 protocol, there's no loss of picture or audio quality in the process. You'll want to share your brilliant HD memories with friends and family, and the VIXIA HV30 makes it fast and easy. Sharing your video on your HD television is easier than ever with the VIXIA HV30. A single cable connects your camcorder to your TV for the highest quality playback. Another pro-level feature of the HV30 is the advanced accessory shoe terminal.
