StitchAssist
By using the StitchAssist Mode, you can create magnificent
panoramas. Shoot your landscape, and transfer them to your
computer. Then simply select and arrange your images in the
correct order, and the supplied PhotoStitch software does the
rest, aligning, overlapping and cropping the separate images
to form one ultra-wide panoramic still image.
Exif Print
The OPTURA support Exif Print (2.2), a worldwide standard
that enhances communication between digital cameras and
printers. At the time of shooting, vital camcorder settings and
scene data are recorded with the image, resulting in realistic
and reliable color reproduction. Poor lighting or
mistakes can also be corrected, allowing photos to
be even better than the originals.
Advanced Accessory Shoe
Want to add an accessory microphone or video light? Simply
slide Canon’s VFL-1 Video Flash Light, DM-50 Directional
Stereo Microphone or VL-3 Video Light into the accessory shoe;
the camcorder will automatically provide power and
connections. No external power or cables are required.
Direct Print Choices
The camcorder offers flexible connectivity with a variety of
printers. Connect your camcorder to a Canon CP-Series Card
Photo Printer (CP-10, CP-100/200/300) or Canon Bubble Jet
Direct Printer, without even connecting a computer. A single
cable connects the printer to your OPTURA and you can
perform trimming and other functions right from the camcorder.
Choose from a range of different paper sizes with options for
borderless or bordered prints. The OPTURA can
also connect to any PictBridge compliant printer.
Pop-up Flash
The pop-up flash automatically rises up and fires according to
the brightness of the surrounding area. Use to illuminate your
subjects when shooting still images of night scenes, indoors or
in other dark places. There are 4 modes: Auto, Red-eye
reduction Auto, Flash on, Flash off.
Zebra Pattern
