Canon shows off tons of cameras

by at January 12, 2009 10:40 pm

Shortly before CES, Canon unveiled almost a dozen new camcorders. They all were on display at CES and Gadgetell played with some of them.

Virtually all of the HD consumer camcorder line can now record in a 24Mbps mode called MXP. Why does this matter? The higher the bitrate, the higher the quality of video. If you’re a video podcaster or just like making movies, this stuff matters to you. The tape-based HV40 records in 25Mbps in HDV format.
