Canon is continuing its philosophy of making available to the public top quality products and its range of MiniDV camcorders, with their advanced functions, is no exception. Whether making a movie or taking a photo with the MV950, colours are always reproduced as vividly as you remember them with Canon's DIGIC DV and its CCD sensor of 800 000 pixels . DIGIC DV is a processor that provides two processing paths, one each dedicated to video or stills. That means that the camcorder can treat different kinds of images in the best possible way, as well as allowing photos and video to be shot at the same time. Geared for true 16:9 recording, the MV950 captures video that is ideally suited for playback on the very latest widescreen TVs. During recording, footage is monitored exactly as it will appear on the TV, either on the camcorder's 2.7" 16:9 LCD screen or via the colour viewfinder. Using the LCD's level marker, it's easy to keep the subject lined up. Additional 4:3 shooting is available at the push of a button. The MV950 is great for beginners, with a one-push Easy shooting mode that tells the camcorder to switch all key controls to automatic, letting you get on with the most important task of framing the perfect shot. For more creative control, a re-designed layout leaves just six buttons to master as your video skills grow.
