Plug and Play!

IEEE 1394 DV Terminal

The XL1s is equipped with a DV IN/OUT terminal that conforms to IEEE 1394. It takes just a single digital cable to transfer or copy your videos in pure digital form to your DV compatible computer or another Canon DV camcorder. Once you’ve transferred video images to your computer, you can edit your movies, stream them over the Internet or post them on your Web site. Also, you can print them out on a Canon color printer, transfer them back to your Canon camcorder and archive them on a Mini DV cassette, or create a dubbing master.
