Canon MVX460

Canon MVX460 ... what and how you're shooting.

Optimized for true 16:9 shooting, the MVX460 captures high-resolution widescreen pictures. With a 2.7" widescreen color LCD screen that includes a level marker to line up the horizon, as well as a color viewfinder, movies are perfect for watching back on widescreen TVs. At the push of a button, the camcorder can be switched from 16:9 wide to normal 4:3 shooting.

The camcorder performs to the highest optical standards thanks to a powerful 20x optical zoom lens that has Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) and variable zoom speeds. DV and AV input allow greater creative control. With DV input, video that has been uploaded to a computer for editing can be re-recorded back to miniDV cassette in the camcorder. With analog-to-digital conversion possible via AV input, even old home movies can be transferred to digital tape for archiving.

With Canon's powerful DIGIC DV imaging engine, the camcorder has separate processing paths for video and stills. Colors remain vivid and vibrant no matter what kind of image you're shooting and simultaneous video and still capture is also possible. Compatible with PictBridge printers, it's easy to get digital photographs out of the camcorder and onto paper. With a single push of the Print/Share button, images can be either sent to a printer or uploaded to a computer via Hi Speed USB.

With a re-designed control layout, the camcorder's menu is navigated via an easy-to-use joystick. Using the wireless controller, movies can even be shot from in front of, and not behind, the lens. The camcorder's Night Mode white LED makes shooting without light a real possibility, illuminating even the darkest occasions and capturing the moment to tape.
