The advantages of flash memory go beyond the added recording time.

You'll also appreciate the quick response time, because it doesn't

have to wait for moving parts. Press the record button and your

VIXIA HF21 starts recording video faster than you've ever seen

before. In addition, when you review your footage, it will come up

more quickly.

Another plus is the VIXIA HF21's low power consumption rate,

allowing your battery to last longer. It's just what you need so

you don't miss that pivotal play on the field or the moment when

they say "I do."

While we certainly hope you keep your VIXIA HF21 securely in your

hand while shooting, if it happens to slip, or you accidentally

knock it against something, you'll be happy to know that flash

memory makes your camcorder more shock-resistant than other

recording storage systems. It also minimizes the chance of data

loss due to damage to your recording media or to the moving parts

found in other camcorders.

1920 x 1080 movie recording requires a Class 4 or higher memory

card. For other recording formats, a Class 2 or higher card is

recommended. Also, movie recording requires cards with 128MB of

memory or more. Cards made by Toshiba, SanDisk or Panasonic are

recommended. No particular restrictions apply for still images.
 
Ultra-Sleek, Compact and Lightweight Design

Making the technology and features of the VIXIA HF21 even more

impressive are its compact size and lightweight design. Measuring

only 2.8" wide, 2.4" high and 4.9" deep, and weighing in at only

12.0 ounces without battery pack, it combines considerable video

storage capacity and advanced features in a small, convenient-to-

carry body. You will find more places than ever to use your VIXIA

HF21 because it's so easy to have with you more of the time.
 

Genuine Canon 15x HD Video Lens

For over 70 years Canon has been producing exceptional

photographic lenses that are synonymous with unsurpassed optical

performance. Because of Genuine Canon Optics, every Canon

broadcast lens, digital camera and camcorder assures brilliant

optical quality - and the VIXIA HF21 is no exception.

The VIXIA HF21 comes with an outstanding high definition video

lens - a Genuine Canon 15x HD Video Lens. It's the lens you need

to record long shots of your child on the soccer field, wide shots

of beautiful landscapes, and everything in between. And because it

comes with four zoom speeds - three pre-set and one variable - you

always get smooth, steady, professional-looking zoom shots.

Super Spectra Coating technology results in images with minimal

flare and ghosting. Plus, the lens' aspheric design reduces

aberration and increases resolution, ensuring crisp, sharp video -

enhancing the HD image quality. As well, a gradation neutral

density (ND) system gives you better exposures in bright shooting

situations

Canon Exclusive: 3.89 Megapixel Full HD CMOS Image Sensor
 

The VIXIA HF21 captures 1920 x 1080 high definition video through

its Canon designed and manufactured 3.89 Megapixel HD CMOS Image

Sensor, similar to the CMOS image sensors in Canon's EOS Series

Digital SLR cameras.

High color resolution and advanced color reproduction is provided

by the VIXIA HF21's sophisticated CMOS image sensor. It is also

unique in featuring Canon's proprietary noise reduction

technologies for crisp, sharp images. Low noise technology also

means that even in dimly lit scenes, the signal from each pixel is

as pure as possible, with minimal noise or other aberrations. It's

the ideal sensor for HD.

The VIXIA HF21 uses an RGB Primary Color Filter with Bayer

Placement Pattern that separates light into red, green and blue

color components. This results in vibrant images with deep, rich,

accurate color and natural-looking tones similar to what you'd

obtain from 3CCD camcorders. As an added benefit, the CMOS sensor

provides outstanding image capture in low light conditions.
 

Canon Exclusive: DIGIC DV III Image Processor

 

DIGIC DV III is Canon's most advanced HD image processor ever

helping to deliver enhanced image quality, true color production

for both video and photos, and a sophisticated noise reduction

system for exceptional low light performance. It is also the

high-speed engine which powers a variety of Canon technologies

including Genuine Canon Face Detection and an Advanced Auto

Exposure system.

Plus, the Canon DIGIC DV III Image Processor allows continuous

shooting of digital photos with the VIXIA HF21. You can also enjoy

faster processing of your images to your memory card (1.4x normal

card; 2.5x Hi-Speed card). In addition it helps lower power

consumption for longer battery life


1920 x 1080 Full HD Recording

The Canon VIXIA HF21 not only captures images in full HD, but

records and outputs at 1920 x 1080* as well, so you get full HD

from lens to screen. Your memories are preserved in stunning

clarity, and ready for playback on your HDTV. With the advanced

codec in the VIXIA HF21, you can also record at the highest AVCHD

bit rate of 24Mbps.**

* A Class 4 or higher SDHC memory card is required. For other

recording formats, a Class 2 or higher card is recommended. Also,

movie recording requires cards with 128MB of memory or more.No

particular restrictions apply for still images.

** DVD media containing AVCHD footage should only be used in AVCHD

compatible players, otherwise the DVD player may fail to eject the

media and may erase its contents without warning.
 


24Mbps Recording

The 24Mbps recording capability of the VIXIA HF21 gives you the

highest quality AVCHD video possible. You'll see enhanced detail,

finer gradations of tones and improved reproduction of moving

subjects. Video shot by the VIXIA HF21 of fast-moving sporting

events, multicolored butterflies on a variegated leaf or the

shading of a brilliant sunset will be remarkable.
 

Canon Exclusive: Dynamic SuperRange Optical Image Stabilization

Canon's optical excellence has long been enhanced by our

sophisticated optical image stabilization technology. The high-

resolution images of high definition video demand a steady hand,

and we've taken it to a new level with the VIXIA HF21's Dynamic

SuperRange Optical Image Stabilization*.


Dynamic SuperRange Optical Image Stabilization provides continuous

adjustment throughout the entire zoom range to correct a broader

range of motion. In comparison to SuperRange Optical Image

Stabilization, extra compensation is applied at wide-angle focal

lengths to eliminate unwanted vibration common when walking. While

some image stabilization systems correct one type of camera motion

or vibration better than another, Canon's Dynamic SuperRange OIS

corrects a variety of camcorder motions: the fast vibration you'd

experience while recording from a moving car; the medium-speed

motion of hand-held recording; and the slower motion of body sway.

No matter what you're recording and how you're recording it, the

VIXIA HF21's stabilization design corrects camcorder shake

instantly.

In addition, optical image stabilization keeps your shot steady

without a loss in image quality - something that can't be said for

electronic image stabilization. And image stabilization isn't just

for video; you can even use it for taking sharper, clearer digital

photographs with your VIXIA HF21. Thanks to Canon's expertise,

it's easy to eliminate one of the telltale signs of amateur video

and photography.

* Dynamic SuperRange Optical Image Stabilization is not functional

while capturing digital photos. Standard SuperRange Optical Image

Stabilization will be in effect.
 
Canon Exclusive: Instant AF (Auto Focus)

Another critical objective when shooting in high definition is

achieving a very sharp focus. The VIXIA HF21 camcorder features

Canon's revolutionary Instant AF focusing system which offers a

dramatic improvement in auto focus speed and accuracy (compared to

traditional auto focus systems). The Instant AF feature uses an

external sensor, in combination with Canon's auto focus system, to

help significantly decrease the time it takes to find focus, even

in low light conditions. This system achieves focus

instantaneously, reducing focus "hunting." The benefits of Instant

AF are especially seen in high brightness and night shooting

situations. With Instant AF, it's possible to capture fast,

accurate focusing, even when following a moving subject.

And because a properly focused subject is more critical than ever

with HD, the VIXIA HF21 also features Focus Assist. This helps in

capturing your subject in razor-sharp focus. It works by providing

a 2x magnification of your subject (when you start recording, this

assistance is automatically cancelled). This is a feature normally

found in professional broadcast-quality cameras.
 

Canon Exclusive: Genuine Canon Face Detection

The same high quality Face Detection technology used in Canon

digital cameras is now available in Canon high definition

camcorders. Up to 35 faces can be tracked automatically, ensuring

razor-sharp focus and natural, accurate exposure. Of the faces

tracked, 9 detection frames can be displayed at one time.

The system is in fact so intelligent that it will recognize faces

that are turned downwards or sideways. In addition, a specific

face may be selected as the main subject for continuous tracking.

This feature can be used to search for clips featuring that

specific subject's face. In search and playback, use of the Face

Index will display frames with the chosen face as a thumbnail in

each shot in which it appears. The selected face can be linked as

a timeline to further identify footage containing that subject.
 

Advanced Auto Exposure System
 
The VIXIA HF21 has an Advanced AE System designed to provide the

most accurate exposure settings in a wide variety of lighting

conditions. This enhanced Auto Exposure, together with Face

Detection and
DIGIC DV III, captures an expanded dynamic range, optimizing

brightness to avoid overexposure, while still preserving precious

shadow detail.

Some examples include:
saturation of face tones in dark situations
correction of backlighting
correction of overlit (blowout) and underlit (black level

correction)
 

24p Cinema Mode & 30p Progressive Mode
 
24p Cinema Mode enables all aspiring moviemakers to achieve a

professional "film-look." You can change the camcorder's frame

capture rate to 24p (recorded at 60i), which provides the

appearance of the same frame rate as movie film. In addition, you

can use the VIXIA HF21's CINEMA setting, which changes the color

and tonal characteristics, evoking the look and feel of a movie

shown in a theater. For added flexibility, these settings can be

used together or independently.


You would normally have to look to professional video cameras in

order to have this sophisticated tool at your command. In addition

to the standard interlaced video frame rate of 60i, you may choose

to set the VIXIA HF21 to capture video in 30p, (30 progressive

frames, recorded to 60i) which is particularly useful for footage

to be used on the Internet. In addition, this setting gives

enhanced quality to still images captured after recording. It's

also excellent for action shots and sports.


Canon Exclusive: 2.7" Multiangle Vivid Widescreen LCD

 The 2.7" Multiangle Vivid Widescreen LCD on the VIXIA HF21 lets

you see more of what your camcorder is recording. Using a hard

coat Anti-Reflection surface and improved color reproduction, the

scene in the viewfinder is a more accurate indication of what

you're capturing in the camcorder. An added benefit of this Canon

Exclusive is the wider range of viewing angles possible with this

LCD screen. With less glare and deeper contrasts, groups of people

can gather around it and see the image displayed more clearly than

ever before.


Mini Advanced Accessory Shoe Terminal
 
Another pro-level feature of the VIXIA HF21 is the Mini Advanced

Accessory Shoe on the camcorder. At about half the size of Canon's

Advanced Accessory shoe, this feature allows you to attach

available Canon optional accessories, such as the VL-5 Video

Light, DM-100 Directional Stereo Microphone, or RA-V1 Remote

Control Adapter. Using the proper accessories can greatly enhance

the production values of the video you shoot.
 

Advanced Video Snapshot Mode

Advanced Video Snapshot Mode will let you shoot short movie clips

with the VIXIA HF21 in the same way you've shot snapshots with

your still camera. In this mode, you can create 4 second video

clips which can be played back in the VIXIA HF21 with background

music. You'll also be able to use the mode to capture clips in

Playback Mode as well, making it more convenient than ever to use

this feature. It's the perfect way to document your vacation in a

quick, easy, entertaining series of clips, perfect for Internet

sharing.
 

Night Scene Mode

The Night Scene Mode setting in the Program AE of the VIXIA HF21

reduces video "noise" and helps to prevent overexposure of

artificial lighting from buildings and streetlamps while shooting

video outdoors in the dark.

The result will be night scenes with the visual accuracy, depth

and clarity you expect from a Canon camcorder.


Compatible with Optional Waterproof Case

The dramatic clarity and brilliance of HD video is particularly

suited for conveying the beauty to be found underwater. The VIXIA

HF21 can be your partner under the waves as well with the optional

Canon WP-V1 Waterproof Case. Designed specifically for the VIXIA

HF21, the case is waterproof to 130ft (40m). It's conceived to

make the most of the VIXIA HF21's capabilities, with direct

control buttons for record start/stop, telephoto and wide zoom,

photo capture and preview. Compact and light, it's priced to make

HD underwater exploration a compelling option


Adding to the usefulness of the WP-V1 Waterproof Case is the

Surface Mode setting of the VIXIA HF21. To compensate for the

color shift which occurs when shooting underwater, the VIXIA HF21

adjusts the white balance setting when in Underwater Mode. When

you return to the surface of the water, a switch to Surface Mode

brings the white balance back to that normally used when shooting

in sunlight - without the need to remove the VIXIA HF21 from the

WP-V1 Waterproof Case. You can chase your marine subject from the

depths to the light, all the while capturing the most natural

color possible.


Superb Shooting Control

Dual Shot

Capture video and photos without switching modes, which saves you

time and helps you avoid the chance of a missed shot.

Variable Zoom Speed Control

Another sure sign of amateur video is the unsteady zoom shot. But

with the VIXIA HF21's zoom control, you simply select one of the

four zoom speeds (three pre-set, one variable) for smooth, steady,

professional-looking zooms.

Level and Grid Markers

 

Simulated ImageWith the Level Marker feature, it's easy to keep

your camera level for more professional-looking video. Line up any

horizontal lines in your shot - such as the horizon - to the

marker and you can be sure your camcorder is level.

The VIXIA HF21's Grid Marker feature lets you compose your shot

accurately, according to the grid in your viewfinder. You can even

choose from two different colors for the grid. This ensures that

you see the grid, no matter what the background color of your shot

is.

Quick Start

Never miss a quickly unfolding shot again. When the VIXIA HF21 is

in Camera Mode and the LCD panel is closed, it is placed in

standby mode. When the action starts, open the LCD panel and

you'll begin recording in less than one second. You'll also help

extend your battery life as compared to leaving the camcorder in

regular recording mode.

Pre-record

The Pre-record feature places your VIXIA HF21 in a standby "pre-

roll" mode. When you press the shooting button while in Pre-

record, the VIXIA HF21 automatically records 3 seconds of the

action which occurred prior to your pressing of the button. With

Pre-record, it will be harder than ever to miss the moment when

the bat hits the ball at the start of that home run.


Low Light Performance

Some of the most magical shots are taken at the end of the day or

long after the sun has set. You won't miss any of them, thanks to

the VIXIA HF21's mini video light. The light lets you shoot

subjects in color, in low light, up to 4.9 feet away. So, whether

it's a shot of a sleeping baby, or a group of friends on a

candlelit terrace at night, the VIXIA HF21 captures all the

moments you want to record.

Manual Audio Level Control

To make your videos sound as good as they look, the VIXIA HF21

offers a built-in audio meter and manual audio level adjustment.

You'll be able to tell at a glance if the sound you're hearing is

being recorded the way you want it and a simple control allows you

to change the audio level if it's not.

Improved Menu User Interface

For greater ease of use, the VIXIA HF21 features a revised control

button with cross movement action. It's an intuitive design

enabling you to push up, down, left or right to choose the menu

option you wish.


DVD Burner Compatible

You can also easily burn DVDs of the video shot with your VIXIA

HF21 as it is compatible with Canon's new DW-100 DVD Burner. A

one-cable connection is all it takes to send the files across and

with the click of a few buttons, your videos will be burned to an

AVCHD disc for play in a compatible DVD player.

AVCHD discs containing scenes recorded in MXP mode cannot be

created with the optional DW-100 DVD Burner.
 
Optional Canon RA-V1 Remote Control Adapter

Should you have the need to operate your VIXIA HF21 on a tripod,

the optional Canon RA-V1 Remote Control Adapter can be a useful

addition to your equipment set.

Simply slip the RA-V1 into the Mini Advanced Accessory Shoe on top

of the VIXIA HF21 and you'll have a LANC terminal to which you can

connect an optional wired remote controller, such as the Canon

ZR-1000, ZR-2000 or third-party device.


Through the Canon ZR-1000 and ZR-2000, a wide range of functions

on the VIXIA HF21 can be controlled:

Intelligent Lithium-ion Battery

The Intelligent Lithium-ion battery which powers the VIXIA HF21 is

a major advance. It not only more accurately tracks remaining

battery life, it also gives a display in minutes remaining. It

will allow you to better plan your shooting, so you won't be

caught out with a battery that suddenly goes from "half" to

"empty." You'll find this especially useful since it lets you take

full advantage of the long recording time capability of the VIXIA

HF21. You'll capture all the action.


Built-in 3.3 Megapixel Digital Camera

The VIXIA HF21 is not only a superb camcorder, but also a terrific

3.3 Megapixel Digital Camera delivering high quality still photos.

With many advanced photo features, rivaling other state-of-the-art

digital cameras, and recording to an SDHC memory card, you get the

best in both video and photos. An example? The VIXIA HF21 boasts

Simultaneous Photo Shooting, allowing you to capture crisp 3.0

Megapixel photos and video at the same time.

The same Canon exclusive CMOS image sensor that ensures sharp,

vivid HD video also gives you brilliant digital photographs. Like

the CMOS image sensors in Canon's EOS Series digital SLR cameras,

the VIXIA HF21's image sensor results in outstanding digital

photographs. It gives a resolution of 3.3 Megapixels for sharp,

crisp still images.

Canon DIGIC DV III Image Processor

Canon's exclusive DIGIC DV III Image Processor features improved

continuous shooting of digital photographs with the VIXIA HF21.

You can also enjoy faster processing of your images to your memory

card (1.4x normal card; 2.5x Hi-Speed card).

Focus Features

Auto Intelligent Auto Focus (AiAF) ensures sharp images and gives

you creative flexibility. Even when your subject isn't in the

center of the frame, the VIXIA HF21's 9-Point AiAF will

automatically select from 9 metering frames on the screen to help

bring images into sharp focus.

Auto Exposure Modes

Like any good digital still camera, the VIXIA HF21 lets you choose

from a range of exposure modes. Auto mode automatically sets the

exposure, letting you concentrate on your subject. AV (aperture

priority) mode lets you control the depth of field by letting you

choose the aperture. TV (shutter priority) mode lets you select

the shutter speed for sharp, action shots. In P (program) mode,

the camcorder adjusts camera settings automatically.

Program AE Mode

Your life happens everywhere, so the VIXIA HF21 gives you settings

that automatically result in the best exposure settings for

different conditions and different subjects.

Portrait mode ensures shallow depth of field for a pleasing

background in your shots of friends and family. Sports mode stops

the action with faster shutter speeds. Low Light Mode is designed

to give you great shots after the sun goes down. Snow and Beach

modes compensate for bright surroundings and give you the proper

exposure on your subject. Sunset mode results in vibrant, well-

exposed colors for one of the toughest subjects to capture

properly. Use Spotlight mode when your child is on stage and in

the spotlight - literally - and you want to make sure the exposure

is right for them. Fireworks mode records brilliant images of

another tough subject - the holiday fireworks display. Night Scene

Mode reduces video "noise" and helps to prevent overexposure of

artificial lighting from buildings and streetlamps while shooting

outdoors in the dark. To compensate for the color shift which

occurs when shooting underwater when using the optional Canon WP-

V1 Waterproof Case, the VIXIA HF21 adjusts the white balance

setting when in Underwater Mode. Surface Mode re-adjusts the white

balance setting to that normally used in sunlight, after the VIXIA

HF21 has been shooting in Underwater Mode.

 


Selectable Metering Patterns

For optimal exposure, the VIXIA HF21 offers selectable metering

patterns. You can choose the options of Evaluative, which in

normal shooting conditions will measure the light in all areas of

the subject image, Center-Weighted Average, which gives greater

importance to the object in the center of the image, and Spot,

which adjusts the exposure exactly to the object in the center of

the image.

Auto Exposure Bracketing

In challenging lighting situations, such as strong backlight, a

dark background or a very sunny or snowy day, it can be tricky to

get the right exposure for a photo. The AE Bracketing feature of

the VIXIA HF21 automatically takes three versions of the shot,

with 'dark,' 'normal' and 'light' settings in ½ exposure steps so

you may choose the one that best suits you.

Continuous Shooting

The VIXIA HF21 can capture a rapid succession of photos, just like

the motor drive on a still camera. Shoot up to 3 frames per second

in the Continuous Mode, or a blazing 5 frames per second in the

High Speed Continuous Mode. This feature is ideal for fast action

sports or capturing babies on the move. This action is possible in

all modes except Fireworks Mode.

Simultaneous Photo Recording

With the VIXIA HF21, you can record HD video and capture a 2.99

Megapixel photo to a memory card - simultaneously. Simply press

the photo button and you've got an e-mail ready digital photo to

share with friends and family.

Histogram Display

For the advanced digital photographer, the VIXIA HF21 comes with a

Histogram Display - a feature found in Canon's line of digital SLR

cameras. The display allows you to see the brightness information

of your still images, so you can adjust your exposures as you

shoot.

Level and Grid Markers

With the Level Marker feature, it's easy to keep your camera level

for more professional-looking photographs. Line up any horizontal

lines in your shot - such as the horizon - to the marker and you

can be sure your camcorder is level.

The VIXIA HF21's Grid Marker feature lets you compose your shot

accurately, according to the grid in your viewfinder. You can even

choose from two different colors for the grid. This ensures that

you see the grid, no matter what the background color of your shot

is.

Still Capture from Flash Memory

The versatile VIXIA HF21 even lets you capture a still image from

an already recorded movie. While playing the movie in your

camcorder, simply press the photo button to capture a 1920 x 1080

still frame to an SDHC card or to Built-in Memory. Additionally,

the VIXIA HF21 allows you to capture 30 photos from one second of

video. Now, better photos filled with action and expressions are

easy to grab, print, post and share.

Built-in Flash

Your VIXIA HF21's built-in flash lets you capture superb photos

indoors and in low light conditions. The VIXIA HF21 also features

red-eye reduction.

Print/Share

Print/Share turns your VIXIA HF21 into a photo lab in the palm of

your hand. Simply connect your camcorder directly to select Canon

printers or any PictBridge-compatible printer with the supplied

USB cable. Then, with a simple touch of the Print/Share button,

print directly from your VIXIA HF21 without going through a

computer.

Print/Share also makes it easy to transfer your still images to

your computer. Simply connect your VIXIA HF21 to your computer,

press the Print/Share button and your photos are downloaded to

your computer.

DVD Burner Compatible
