The Canon VIXIA HF G70 is the updated version of its predecessor, the Canon VIXIA HF G60. Key features include:
Vividly Vixia. The Canon Vixia G70 features the same form factor and many of the great specs of the G60 & G50, including a 1/2.3" UHD 4K CMOS sensor, a DIGIC DV 6 image processor, an 8-blade circular aperture, 5-axis image stabilization, a 20x optical zoom in 4K, and recording up to UHD 4K30 resolution. However, this updated model offers a larger 3.5mm LCD capacitive touchscreen display, a higher resolution tiltable 0.36" OLED EVF, recording only in MP4 format, and fast USB Type-C video-only output with UVC support for live streaming to a computer.
Power & Live Streaming This kit includes an AC adapter & a BP-820 battery pack to fuel your film dreams. This camcorder allows you to stream HD video directly from the camera via UVC1 to a Windows or Mac computer, although audio output through USB is not supported.
Additional Controls & Features. The VIXIA HF G70 features an advanced Hybrid AF system with focusing speed adjustable for either Fast or Smooth AF. Using the ultra-bright 3.5" LCD, set the focus by simply touching the AF point you need. For even greater accuracy and convenience, especially in busy environments where you need to keep a subject in frame, Face Detection AF and Face Tracking is also available, while Manual Focus is set via the focus/zoom ring. A host of output and recording options include Infrared mode, Slow-Motion recording in 5x Full HD, Fast Motion recording in UHD 4K/1080p up to 1200x, and an array of Scene modes. A custom picture menu enables color matching with other Canon cameras, while audio scene mode adds sound recording tuned to your environment. Simultaneous backup and relay recording via dual SD card slots are also included.
