The Canon XL Series camcorders have brought industry leading lens optics and image processing to the professional market for more than a decade. In that time, the superior image quality and ultimate creative control of the XL Series camcorders have made them a favorite among leading videographers, wedding, corporate and event videographers, digital filmmakers and documentary producers.
The XL H1S is one of two specialized updates of Canon's popular XL H1 High Definition camcorder. The XL H1S not only has all of the features of its predecessor, but Canon has added an even higher level of customization options and capabilities which will make it an even more useful creative partner for the demanding professional. One newer feature is the ability to embed audio and time code into its uncompressed HD-SDI output providing expanded connectivity for use in demanding live production and multi-camera shoots.
The XL H1S offers industry-standard connections and terminals along with the new Genuine Canon 20x HD Video Zoom Lens III with Professional L Series Fluorite. To back up that superb lens are three 1/3" Native 16:9 CCD with 1.67M Pixels (delivering a full 1440 x1080) and Canon's exclusive DIGIC DV II HD Image Processor. The XL H1S is the compelling choice for anyone seeking to produce the best in high definition video.
