An easy-to-use Joystick, positioned on the frame of the LCD screen, gives you complete control over every important shooting and playback option. Compatibility with DVD-R Dual Layer media allows the DC301 to offer enhanced recording times. Perfect for long days out and extended breaks, it can store up to up to 108 minutes on an 8cm Dual Layer DVD.

An optional high capacity battery extends shooting time further. With Canons true wide high resolution 16:9 recording system, the DC301 records stunning panoramic movies, ideal for playback on widescreen TVs. Perfectly compose and preview your movie on the 2.7” 16:9 LCD screen. Or use the wide 0.35 EVF (Electronic Viewfinder) to conserve battery power.

Originally developed for the demands of high definition recording, DIGIC DV II offers faster processing speeds and advanced noise reduction technology. With split path processing, video and photos are processed separately, ensuring that the colors of each look their best.

The LCD screen doubles as a handy video light when turned to face forwards. Providing welcome illumination in dark conditions, it allows recording to continue when ambient light is poor. Perfect for sharing, still images are captured to SD or SDHC (high capacity) memory cards. Beautiful photos can be printed directly on printers with a compatible memory card slot.
