The HG10 captures 1920x1080 High Defi nition video through its
Canon designed and manufactured CMOS image sensor, similar
to the CMOS image sensors in Canon’s EOS Series Digital SLR
cameras.
Compared to a CCD, the HG10’s CMOS’s high color resolution and
advanced color reproduction gives brilliant results. It is also unique
in featuring Canon’s proprietary noise reduction technologies for crisp, sharp images. Low noise
technology also means that even in dimly lit
scenes, the signal from each pixel is as pure as
possible, with minimal noise or other aberrations.
It’s the ideal sensor for HD.
The HG10 uses an RGB Primary Color Filter with
Bayer Placement Pattern that separates light
into red, green and blue color components. This
results in vibrant images with deep, rich, accurate
color and natural-looking tones similar to what
you’d obtain from 3CCD camcorders. In addition,
the Bayer Placement Pattern delivers sharp high defi nition images with true-to-life color reproduction.
As an added benefi t, the CMOS sensor provides outstanding image capture in
low light conditions.
