Sharp focus is crucial when shooting high-resolution High Definition video. Canon’s proprietary
Instant Autofocus system delivers fast, accurate focus, even when you’re shooting in bright light,
at night, or with the camera in motion. The revolutionary hybrid system combines an external sensor
with Canon’s proven high-performance AF system to dramatically decrease focusing time and ensure
consistently sharp video.

Canon’s sophisticated SuperRange Optical Image Stabilizer corrects camera shake instantly,
so even hand-held video taken at long focal lengths is sharp and steady. The system uses an
advanced hybrid detection method and covers a wide range of movements to keep your video
and photos blur-free.
Because the system is optical,
there is no quality deteriora-
tion associated with electronic
image stabilizers.
More tone, more detail,
more reality
Accurate focus adapts to
changing subject
First, phase difference detection (with the external
sensor) is used to calculate the distance to the
subject and the lens is quickly moved.
Next, the focus is accurately aligned with Canon’s
TTL-AF method (using the CMOS Image Sensor).
