Detailed Features
Take a more detailed look into the Canon XA25
20x zoom wide angle Canon HD Video Lens
Capture more than ever thanks to the XA25's stunning new 26.8mm
wide angle lens. A 20x zoom gets you closer to the action, while
Dynamic Optical Image Stabilisation compensates for shake in 5
directions to provide ultra-steady images. f/1.8 maximum aperture,
an 8-blade iris and EDM technology enable beautiful 'bokeh'
effects.
1/2.84" HD CMOS Pro sensor
With an effective pixel count of approximately 2.91 megapixels, the
new Canon HD CMOS sensor delivers stunning picture quality - even
in low light - as well as outstanding dynamic range and realistic
colour reproduction.
8.77cm (3.5") OLED touchscreen and tiltable EVF
Despite its compact size, the XA25 provides high-quality
monitoring. An OLED touch screen with a 1.23 million dot resolution
offers better response times, definition, contrast and colour
reproduction than LCD equivalents. A 0.61cm (0.24") 1.56 million
dot EVF can tilt up to 45° to accommodate different shooting
positions.
Dual-Format Recording
A next-generation DIGIC DV 4 processor expands your options. AVCHD
video can be recorded at up to 28Mbps in 1080/50P, whilst for
maximum quality a 35Mbps 1080/50P MP4 recording mode is available.
Inclusion of two SDXC/SDHC memory card slots allows simultaneous
recording¹ of high-quality HD and lower resolution MP4 files for
easier file transfer - ideal when a quick turn-around of footage is
needed. Fast and slow motion recording options are available in MP4
modes.
Professional audio and connectivity
Two XLR terminals provide professional audio inputs, supporting
high quality linear PCM recording². An easily accessible HD-SDI
port allows connection to industry-standard broadcast equipment
such as satellite transmission systems.
Infrared shooting
Thanks to the infrared light source built into the handle, this
camera can easily be used at night or in low ambient light
conditions - ideal for the wildlife videographer.
Built-in Wi-Fi, GPS compatibility
Transfer footage wirelessly using an iOS phone or tablet, or via
FTP at up to 150 Mbps³. Remotely control camera functions through a
Wi-Fi enabled device - no apps required. Location data can be
recorded using an optional GPS accessory.
Compact, lightweight body
This discreet camera is ideal for shooting in sensitive or confined
environments and its lightweight body reduces fatigue during
extended periods of hand-held filming.
