Canon iVIS HV10 Consumer HDV Camcorder

Canon’s first consumer HDV camcorder is packed with all the goods yet very easy on the wallet. For $1,300 price tag, the iVIS HV10 features HDV format at Canon’s full HD 1920×1080i, instant autofocus which Canon calls “dramatic,” 10x HD video lens with optical image stabilization, take still pi ctures at 3.1 megapixel and store them on a mini-SD card.

This is one serious-consumer HDV camcorder considering it’s thousands less than Canon’s $4,700 prosumer-level XH A1.
