DIGIC DV
DIGIC DV is a system for achieving superior video and photographic
images. Canon's expertise in imaging and electronics is flawlessly
blended together, resulting in outstanding performance. It offers
substantial benefits in color reproduction. DIGIC DV makes it possible
to achieve accurate color for both video and digital photos. Since
video and photos have different color requirements,
DIGIC DV utilizes two different color techniques to
maximize video quality on a TV and still image quality for
print or computer display.
VIC
Embracing the industry's latest and most sophisticated technology,
Canon camcorders feature an exclusive connection circuit, called VIC.
VIC is a virtual powerhouse. Traditionally, multiple chips were needed
to perform the camcorder's input and output functions. However VIC
manages it all with one single chip. The result is seamless connectivity
whether you are connecting to a computer, TV, or VCR.
DV Photo Plus
Canon's DV Photo Plus achieves premium quality video
and photos by combining four features; Genuine Canon
Optics, a Mega Pixel CCD image sensor, DIGIC DV image processor
and Print & Share. The moment you watch video on a TV or hold a print
in your hand, the difference is clear. DV Photo Plus unleashes the full
digital imaging power of your Canon camcorder, promising a superior
level of clarity, color, and excellence to video and photos.
High Resolution 2.2 Megapixel CCD
The OPTURA 40 and OPTURA 30 feature a robust 1/3.4
inch 2.2 Megapixel CCD image sensor. Combined with a
razor-sharp, Megapixel compatible
lens and image stabilization, the
RGB Primary Color Filter
In addition to achieving high resolution, the OPTURA 40 and
OPTURA 30's 2.2 Megapixel CCD intergrates an RGB Primary
Color Filter which separates the light passing through the lens
into individual red, green, and blue color components, the same color
filtration used in professional 3 CCD camcorders. As a result, the
OPTURA 40 and OPTURA 30 deliver richer, more vibrant, and more
accurate color reproduction than models using a conventional
complementary color filter.
