Capture superb quality footage thanks to the XA30's stunning and
versatile 26.8mm¹ wide angle lens. A 20x zoom gets you up
close to the action, while Dynamic Optical Image Stabilisation
compensates for shake in 5 directions to provide ultra-steady
images. f/1.8 maximum aperture, an 8-blade iris and EDM technology
enable beautiful 'bokeh' effects.
The newly developed Canon HD CMOS Pro sensor achieves an effective
pixel count of approximately 2.91 megapixels to deliver stunning
Full HD picture quality. With increased sensitivity and an improved
signal-to-noise ratio, low light images in particular appear
cleaner with reduced noise.
Two new picture settings help you achieve even more impressive
results. Wide DR mode gives you a 600% dynamic range, resulting in
bright images with high contrast that retain detail in both
highlight and shadow areas, without the need for post-production.
Highlight Priority mode reproduces footage with more natural tones,
richer colours and detail particularly in areas of high
brightness² perfect for scenes with bright skies and
reflective surfaces.
Despite its compact size, the XA30 provides high-quality
monitoring. An easy-to-use OLED touch screen with a 1.23 million
dot resolution offers faster response times and superior
definition, contrast and colour reproduction compared to LCD
equivalents. A 0.61cm (0.24") 1.56 million dot EVF can tilt up to
45° - easily accommodating a range of shooting positions.
