Canon has launched the HV10 HDV camcorder, touting it as the world’s smallest and lightest 1080 HDV camcorder.
The HV10 HDV camcorder combines Canon’s 10x optical HD lens with Super Range Optical Image Stabilization, DIGIC DV II image processor, a 2.7" widescreen LCD and a Canon Full HD resolution (1920x1080 video) CMOS sensor, Smooth Zoom Control to help eliminate jerky zooms, Level Shot Control to help keep the framing straight, and a built-in video light to illuminate low-light situations. It also has the new “Instant AF” nine-point autofocus technology, and the ability to take 3.1 megapixel photos.
Approximately 2" wide by 4" tall, the HV10 weighs in at 0.97 pounds.
Scheduled to be in stores in September, the Canon HV10 HDV camcorder will carry an estimated selling price of $1299.
