Canon HV20: superb quality, complete convenience
The HV20 is a versatile and easy-to-use HD camcorder. A great all-rounder that will satisfy more ambitious family videographers and amateur moviemakers, it uses the popular High Definition Video (HDV) format to capture stunning, panoramic HD movies.
Features such as 25p Cinema Mode are designed for aspiring big-time directors: this feature lets you record video with the look and feel of authentic film. Recording HD movies to inexpensive and easily available MiniDV tapes, the HV20's HDV format is especially suited to editing since it makes it easy to get movies onto a computer.
The Canon HV20 features the following:
True HD resolution 1920x1080 2.96MP Canon Full HD CMOS
HDV1080i, with HDMI terminal for easy playback on HD-Ready TV sets
