Canon XF100 FHD CFx2 Professional Camcorder: This professional Camcorder fully featured pro video camera that imports nearly all the features and functionality of the 3-chip XF300 into a smaller, single sensor form factor. The XF100 records full HD video to affordable Compact Flash cards, making it as versatile as it is powerful. A newly developed Genuine Canon 10x HD video lens resolves images onto a native 1920 x 1080 CMOS sensor that are captured in industry-standard MXF file wrappers using your choice of bit rate (up to 50Mbps), resolution and frame rate.
Features: Canon XF100 FHD CFx2 Professional Camcorder
Canons XF100 is the smallest camcorder to include an MPEG-2, 50Mbps, 4:2:2 Full HD codec
CF card recording, professional audio and extensive customisation provides exceptional versatility
The XF100 records MPEG-2 MXF (Media eXchange Format) files – up to 1920 x 1080 Full HD at 50Mbps (4:2:2) – to relatively inexpensive and widely available CompactFlash (CF) memory cards
Relay Recording across two card slots allow filming to continue without interruption, whilst Double Slot Recording lets you store the same footage to both cards
Putting exceptional functionality in the palm of your hand, the durable and lightweight design enables exceptional versatility
Linear PCM audio can be captured via twin XLR inputs and also using the front-mounted stereo microphone
Drawing on Canons broadcast lens expertise, XF100 features a fast, wide angle Canon HD Video Lens (f1.8-f2.8, 30.4mm) with built-in control ring for adjustment of zoom, focus or iris
An enhanced Optical Image Stabilizer system helps to reduce chromatic aberration, maintain sharpness and reduce lens size
A 2.07MP Full HD CMOS sensor – designed and manufactured by Canon - captures Full HD video at native 1920x1080 resolution
The sensor is equipped with a Bayer pattern colour filter for high sensitivity and wide dynamic range; high-speed data readout technology minimises rolling-shutter skew that can occur in CMOS camcorders
The XF100 features 3D Shooting Assist functions (OIS Axis Shift and Focal Length Guide) which support stereoscopic 3D video capture using two camcorders
With twice the infrared (IR) sensitivity of previous models its also perfect for low light shooting using the new IR Shooting Mode and built-in IR lamp
Green and white options are available to suit different projects
Both camcorders feature a large, side-mounted LCD
This 8.8cm (3.5”) screen has a sharp, 920k dot resolution, with a built-in waveform monitor and Edge Focus function to help set up the shot
A 0.61cm (0.24”), 260k dot EVF with 100% coverage
A wide range of frame rates is available, from 12 to 50 fps
This gives cameramen the freedom to alter the capture rate for additional creative flexibility
