Canon Shows 32GB Hi-Def Camcorder
Posted in: Today's Chili
LAS VEGAS — Canon is saving any new still cameras it might have for the PMA show, but here at CES 2009, the company is showing its new range of Vixia camcorders. They range is capabilities and price, but the best is the HF S10. This has a large (but not as large as Samsung’s 64GB) 32GB of solid state storage, or you can opt for an SDHC card instead.
All the new cameras have Canon’s new DIGIC DV III chip, which is a step up from the – you guessed it – DIGIC DV II. This brings the magic of side-of-face recognition, as you might call it. Canon employs some magic to get the camera to detect faces even if they’re side-on or facing down.
The CMOS sensors don’t just do HD video, either. All cameras in the range will snap stills at a respectable 8 megapixels. Prices and availability unknown.
