The Canon XA10 HD Professional PAL
Camcorder is a fully featured, ultracompact pro video camera that shares
nearly all the functionality of the XF100,
but in an even smaller, run-and-gun form
factor. Sporting a 64 GB internal flash drive
and two SDXC-compatible card slots, the
XA10 can record literally for days without
running out of memory.
Able to capture AVCHD video at bitrates up
to 24 Mb/s, the camcorder's native 1920 x
1080 CMOS sensor also lets you choose 50i
and PF25 frame rates for customizing the
look of your footage (PF25 is 25
progressive frames per second recorded as
50i.). Bringing further professional oomph
to that footage is a Genuine Canon 10x HD
video lens, with lowlight sensitivity to f/1.8
and a 35mm equivalent zoom range of
30.4-304mm.

2. Flash Memory

The XA10 Professional Camcorder allows users to record up to 24 hours of clear high
definition video to a 64GB internal flash drive or to two SDXC-compatible memory cards.
With Relay Recording, the camcorder automatically switches video recording from the
internal drive to the SD memory cards when the memory becomes full.

Video can be copied from the XA10's internal drive to removable SD memory cards. That
makes it easy to insert the card into your computer or HDTV's card reader and view your
recorded footage immediately. Double Slot Recording allows recording to two SD cards
simultaneously, providing an automatic backup while shooting.
AVCHD Codec

The XA10 features the AVCHD codec. AVCHD (Advanced Video Coding High Definition) was
announced in 2006 and is quickly becoming the standard for professional camcorders.
AVCHD utilizes MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 compression technology similar to the technology used
in Canon's HD DSLRs. In addition to professional grade camcorders, AVCHD is very popular
in the consumer market and as a result most nonlinear editing software, both professional
and consumer, have full support for the codec; this makes for easy compatibility with the
XA10 no matter what system you choose.

AVCHD is used for encoding Blu-ray Discs, meaning the XA10 is ideal for capturing content
for delivery in this format, as well as making conversion to web-based content in H.264
format easy. Additionally, the XA10 records up to 24 Mb/s, the maximum bit rate of
AVCHD, at 1920 x 1080 and 4:2:0 color space for sharp, vivid, and fully professional quality
image capture.

3. Genuine Canon 10x HD Video Lens

The XA10 features a Genuine Canon 10x HD Video Lens which offers a 35mm equivalent of
30.4-304mm. It delivers unsurpassed image quality, the versatility of a wide angle of view
and smooth and professional looking background images thanks to a sophisticated 8-blade
iris. A dedicated manual focus ring allows accurate and precise control.
Canon Native 1920 x 1080 CMOS Image Sensor

Designed and manufactured exclusively by Canon, the XA10 Professional PAL Camcorder
incorporates a native 1/3-inch, 1920 x 1080 CMOS image sensor, delivering superb Full HD
video recording with minimal noise. The high sensitivity and wide dynamic range of this
sensor are what demanding users expect from Canon.
Canon DIGIC DV III Image Processor

The XA10 Professional PAL Camcorder features Canon's powerful DIGIC DV III Image
Processor, which provides enhanced shading, lifelike tonal gradations, new custom picture
settings and lower power consumption. DIGIC DV III is also the high-speed engine which
powers a variety of Canon technologies: Genuine Canon Face Detection, Touch & Track,
and Cinema-Look Filters. On-the-go videographers will appreciate the ability to track one
subject in a crowd of people.

4. Smart Auto

Smart Auto uses the power of Canon's DIGIC DV III Image Processor to intelligently detect and
analyze faces, brightness, color, distance, and movement, and then automatically selects the
best settings for the scene. Among the 38 scenes available in Smart Auto, a standout is Tele
Macro. Tele Macro automatically zooms the lens of the camcorder to the telephoto end,
setting the minimum object distance to approximately 1.3 feet (from 3.3 feet). This gives you
the opportunity to shoot spectacular close-ups with the dramatic look of a shallow depth of
field.
3.5" Touch Panel LCD Screen

A 3.5-inch, 922,000-pixel LCD monitor provides an ample, accurate area for critical focus
confirmation and approximately 100% field of view. The display opens on the left side of
the camera body.
Touch & Track

Touch and Track delivers precise tracking of the focus and exposure on any subject –
people, animals, vehicles and more. Simply select the point of interest on the Touch Panel
LCD and you'll have the subject in sharp focus, regardless of where in the frame it moves
during the shot. The exposure will be perfectly adjusted for subject and conditions. Touch
& Track is the default setting. Focus or exposure may be adjusted independently by turning
off Touch & Track, and turning on Touch Focus or Touch Exposure.
Touch Focus

Touch Focus allows the user to pinpoint a specific area to focus on. This function is similar
to the Push AF feature found other professional camcorders, but can target a subject
anywhere in the frame.
Touch Exposure

Touch Exposure enables exposure to be locked or compensated for the area touched by
the user.
