Canon MVX30i 9542A007 User Manual

Canon’s unequalled experience in optical
engineering has resulted in a remarkable
10x optical (200x combined) zoom lens
composed of 12 elements in 10 groups 
- including one original Canon aspherical
lens. This ensures both the MVX35i and
MVX30i deliver crystal clear images that
capture every nuance in every shot. A Super
Spectral lens coating has also been
developed to reduce flaring and ghosting,
making those tricky shots a lot easier.

Even when filming in complete darkness
you can still capture strikingly clear colours
with the MVX30 series’ Night Mode,
Night+ Mode and Super Night Mode. 
Night Mode excels in low-light conditions
(the shutter speed adjusts automatically
according to light levels) whereas
Night+ Mode and Super Night Mode can
actually pick up colour details when shooting
in pitch black (the Super Night LED on the
front of the camera automatically illuminates
in dark conditions). 

The MVX35i comes with a high-intensity LED
that enables you to shoot, in vibrant colour,
up to 1.5 meters away in total darkness.
Even more remarkable is its Ring Light
Adapter, which channels the light from the
LED to a ring light circling the lens. 
This dramatically improves Macro recording
(up to 30cm away from a subject) by
eliminating the overbearing shadows
common in low-light conditions. A bright
halo of light shines evenly across the
subject.

Canon’s visionary technology allows you to
capture a wider view using the High
Resolution 16:9 Mode. It actually uses more
effective pixels to record true wide screen
footage rather than stretching the standard
format to fit. The LCD automatically adjusts
to show you everything that you’re filming.

The Skin Mode function softens skin marks
and wrinkles, making them less noticeable
while still maintaining image clarity and
accuracy.

The MVX30 series features substantial audio
improvements to ensure you capture every
nuance in sound and atmosphere as well
as image. Canon’s new Digital Audio LSI
technology delivers audio sensitivity across
all levels like never before, while the
camcorders also feature a Manual Audio
Level Control that lets you monitor the audio
input level right on the LCD or through the
viewfinder and adjust it manually.

Take it to the limit.

Come back with digital proof.

With Canon’s DIGIC DV technology you get more than a camcorder – you get a
high performance digital camera worthy of the Canon name. Capturing great
photos is as simple as flicking a switch from ‘video’ to ‘still’.

Not only is it quick and easy to switch into still mode; once you’re there you can point and
shoot without having to worry about the correct exposure settings. In Auto-Exposure
Bracketing Mode the camcorder automatically takes three consecutive pictures every time
you press the shutter – one at the recommended setting, one slightly under-exposed and
one slightly over-exposed. You then select your favourite and delete the others.

This function allows you to capture a
sequence of up to 10 images at either 3 or
5 frames per second (2 frames per second
with flash) in a single continuous burst.
You’ll never miss another shot again,
especially as both the MVX35i and MVX30i
come with a built-in flash as standard.

The MVX30 series offers more flexibility than
the standard auto-focus function found
on many camcorders. The Selectable 
Auto-Focus Frame allows you to determine
the area of the stills shot you want the eye
drawn to by manually selecting one of three
auto-focus frames.

You’ve got the best of both worlds with these
camcorders. Even if you’re in the middle of
shooting a movie you can take an emailable
still and save it to the memory card without
interrupting recording. Alternatively you can
switch to still mode and capture a high-
resolution image printable up to 15 x 21cm.
