Here’s one of the latest portable camcorders
from Canon, bringing the convenience of straight-to-DVD recording.
What is it: A straight-to-DVD portable
video camera.
Who’s it for: People who want the
ultra-convenience of straight-to-DVD recording for easy instant
viewing on any DVD player.
Wallet magnet: DVD-quality recordings;
1.07-megapixel CCD; 48x advanced zoom; Canon’s DIGIC DV II imaging
processor; quick boot-up time; real widescreen (16:9) recording with
a large 2.7” LCD; quick editing; dual-layer DVD recording;
extremely fast zoom and fast auto-focus; DVD recording compatible
with most DVD players; easy-to-navigate menu.
On second thought: Short DVD recording
time; SD slot is for still photos only and not for videos;
flash-based media cards are easier to get hold of than DVD-R discs.
What’s in the box: Canon Camcorder
DC320; rechargeable battery and power supply; A/V cables; quick
start guide, manual and CD software.
Tech Times’ verdict: If you really need
that hassle-free straight-to-DVD recording provided by this Canon
model, then go for it. But nowadays, we’d rather record on
flash-based memory cards.
