Main Features

PAL Standard

The HF R46 camcorder is designed for use outside of North America. It's made for countries that support the PAL color encoding system. This camcorder is not compatible with TVs and HDTVs in the United States and Canada.

Full HD CMOS Sensor

The sensor captures 1920 x 1080p 50, for smooth video that avoids the temporal artifacts associated with interlaced footage. The camcorder records still photos at 1920 x 1080 resolution as JPEGs. When recording MP4 movies at 4 Mb/s the photos are recorded at 1280 x 720. Photos can be recorded at the same time you are shooting video, except during a fade in/out.

WiFi with MP4 Support

Built-in WiFi lets you wirelessly share your creations to social networking sites and view your videos on DLNA certified TVs and iOS devices. Support for MP4 format ensures quick transfer times of HD movies.

32x Optical, 53x Advanced, 1060x Digital Zoom

A Canon HD video lens with 32x optical zoom lets you get close up shots of your subject without the lose of resolution a digital zoom causes. The 53x advanced zoom allows you to extend the optical zoom with minimal loss in resolution. You can use the digital zoom feature to zoom into the image 1060x, but this can lead to significant loss of resolution.

Intelligent IS

Intelligent selects the best stabilization based on your shooting method.

Cinema Mode & Cinema-Look Filters

You can choose to shoot in cinema mode, which adjusts the frame rate and image related settings to add a cinematic look to your footage. You can add cinema-look filters to the image for further effect. The camcorder offers seven different filters such as: Cinema Standard, Vivid, Cool, Nostalgic, Sepia, Old Movie, and Dramatic B & W.
