 Canon LEGRIA HF-series HD flash camcorders: superb image quality, stunning design
Amstelveen, The Netherlands, 05 January, 2009: Canon introduces its smallest, most stylish High Definition (HD) camcorders ever: the LEGRIA HF20 and LEGRIA HF200. Recording outstanding Full HD 1920x1080 movies, these new models are around 17% smaller than their predecessors. Incorporating a new version of the Canon HD Camera System with a 15x optical zoom, they encourage consumers to discover the spirit of Freecording: the idea that HD movies can be captured anywhere, at anytime – and always with stunning results. The Dual Flash Memory LEGRIA HF20 combines 32GB of internal memory, enough for over 12 hours of recording time, and straight-to-memory card shooting. Alternatively, the LEGRIA HF200 records movies and photographs to convenient SDHC (High Capacity) memory cards that are ideal for sharing. With a range of new, user-friendly shooting features powered by Canon’s next generation processor – DIGIC DV III – the LEGRIA HF20 and LEGRIA HF200 are smart and stylish. “These camcorders amaze on two levels; their tiny proportions, and their ability to capture such great footage,” said Mogens Jensen, Head Canon Consumer Imaging, Europe. “This is stunning, Full HD quality in your pocket – ready for Freecording any moment during your day.” The new LEGRIA HF20 and LEGRIA HF200:New, ultra-light design – at 340g, Canon’s lightest-ever HD camcorders1920x1080 Full HD recording via an updated Canon HD Camera System New 15x optical zoom Canon HD Video Lens with a Super Range Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS)New ¼” 3.3MP Full HD CMOS sensorNew DIGIC DV III image processorFeatures that make moviemaking easy: New Face Detection technologyNew Video Snapshot mode creates movie montages for sharingNew Pre REC, making it easier to get the shotInstant AF, for precise and rapid auto focusDual Flash Memory: LEGRIA HF20 records movies and stills to either 32GB internal memory or SDHC memory cardsLEGRIA HF200 stores video and photos directly to SDHC memory cardAdvanced photo features – including 3.3 Megapixel still capture, new Dual Shot mode and Photo Burst function (2.07 Megapixel)Expandable and flexible: microphone input and manual audio controls for superior audio capture; Mini Advanced Accessory Shoe; HDMI and component outputsEasy to share: compatible with Canon’s standalone DVD burner, the DW-100; PIXELA ImageMixer™ editing software supplied as standard
