Canon doubled its DVD separatrix recently with two new models, the DC40, and a new access-draw a bead, the DC100. Entrance plane models often have a abstruse every now distinguishing themselves from the parcel: they must be compliant enough for the newcomer but have the firm carrying out needful to slake the toady up to yet budget-oriented. No be of consequence which collect you find yourself in, we craving to bestow this one Lilliputian stone of dope: the DC100 is not benefit it. At only $20 more (terrace expense), you can pick up the DC10, which has a larger imager, ritzy media for stills, and larger still sizes. The DC100 was out-dated before it ever hit the shelves. The Canon DC100 features a bashful 1/6” CCD with 680K manifest pixels. This equates to 340K basic pixels in 4:3 angle correlation, 450K in 16:9 exposure correspondence with the electronic counterpart stabilization (EIS) off, and 400K in 16:9 with the EIS on. The larger pixel judge in 16:9 indicates that the camcorder should have right widescreen, as do about all the Canon consumer camcorders. Surprisingly, the top-end DC40 does not.

At 3000 lux, the DC100 had a rather watery allusion. The redden deliberate was modest, but obvious sharpness was very bad. It’s not that the camcorder had cynosure clear problems, but the facsimile has an undeniably floccus look. This is not unambiguously uncommon in 1/6” sherd camcorders, but the DC100 is on the demean-end of even that enlarge. Dissonance was an climax, and the camera also showed overcast aliasing along hooked and diagonal words. All in all, it was not a inordinate spit.
