Canon has announced the launch of two new high-definition camcorders at NAB 2008. The XLH1S and XL H1A HD camcorders feature Genuine Canon XL interchangeable lens system, three 1/3 inch, 1.67 megapixel CCD Image Sensors, an external LCD Monitorl and the company’s proprietary DIGIC DVII HD Image Processor along with a durable six-pin IEEE 1394 terminal for robust connection to external hardware.
Incorporated with Canon 20x HD Video lens, both the camcorders come with three independent manual adjustment rings such as focus, zoom and iris. Users can access manual focus and zoom control. An expanded array of controls enables personalized image, display and operation.
Both the XL line-up of camcorders are compatible with HD tapes to meet the requirements of long-form production applications like wedding and event videography, digital filmmaking, documentary production and media education. They also support HD-SDI (SMPTE 299M)/SD-SDI (SMPTE272M) output with embedded audio and time code, providing a raw, uncompressed 1.485 Gbps signal for demanding live production environments, SMPTE Time Code input and output terminals and a Genlock output terminal for multi-camera shooting situations.
Consumers can switch in all frame rates between 1080-line 16:9 aspect ratio HD video and 480-line 4:3 aspect ratio SD video (or 576 lines in 50i or 25F mode). The XL H1S and XL H1A feature 23 custom presets for image-quality adjustment, ranging from +/-9 to +/-50 steps. They are compliant with an onboard SD/SDHC Memory Card.
The latest XL H1S and XL H1A HD camcorders include two-channel audio performance, two built-in XLR terminals with separate audio-input sensitivity settings, line output level switching, an audio (manual) limiter, a new metal headphone jack for reliable connectivity. You have the freedom to record sound from an external microphone and the supplied internal microphones at one go.
Canon will roll out XL H1S HD camcorder in early June for $8,999 (approx. Rs. 359,960), whereas the XL H1A will be available for $5,999 (approx. Rs. 239,960) in mid-July.
