Canon Digital Video Technology
TOUCH PANEL LCD SCREEN
Canon’s Touch Panel LCD Screen offers

over a variety of camcorder functions — such as scene
selection, Genuine Canon Face Selection and Touch &
Track — right at your fingertips. For the ultimate viewing expe-
rience, Canon’s 3.5-inch High Resolution Touch Panel LCD
Screen offers the added benefit of a large expansive area

SMART AUTO
Smart Auto makes shooting great video easier
than ever before. Using the power of Canon’s DIGIC
DV III Image Processor, the camcorder intelligently detects and
analyzes faces, brightness, color, distance and movement, then
automatically selects the best settings for the scene. Whether you
are capturing a sunset, a day at the beach, or a fast-paced soccer
game, Smart Auto delivers exceptionally accurate results.

TOUCH & TRACK
Touch & Track allows any subject (pets, vehicles, etc.) to
be the focal point of your video simply by selecting it on
the Touch Panel LCD. It allows you to continuously track while
automatically adjusting focus and exposure on the selected
subject. You can also choose to adjust focus or exposure
independently by turning off Touch & Track, and turning on
Touch Focus or Touch Exposure.

GENUINE CANON FACE DETECTION
The same high quality Face Detection tech-
nology used in Canon digital cameras is also
available in Canon VIXIA camcorders. Up to 35 faces can
automatically be detected, and 9 detection frames can be
displayed at one time. The system is so intelligent that it
recognizes faces that are turned down or sideways. In addition,
a specific face may be selected as the main subject for
continuous tracking. The technology enhances auto exposure
by compensating to eliminate whiteout or loss of shadow
detail. Even playback can be linked to Face Detection, allowing
you to access specific scenes based on faces.
