The company's first two DVD camcorders are the DC 20 and the DC 10. The DC 20 has a 2.2-megapixel CCD (charge-coupled device) sensor while the DC 10 comes with a 1.3-megapixel CCD. They both have 10X optical zooms, take still pictures, and can record to a miniSD memory card, the company says. Like other DVD camcorders, the models record to 3.2-inch discs.
But the company hasn't been satisfied with the image quality of DVD camcorder models on the market and designers thought many of the early models a bit bulky, so Canon wanted to wait until it got the quality and size issues sorted out, he says.
Both will be in shops in Europe in late October; the DC 20 for around $1,208 and the DC 10 for $1091. The company hasn't announced pricing and availability for the U.S.
