    Canon XA40 Professional Video Camcorder

    XA40

    For fast performance in both capture and transmission, excellent for the dynamic world of Electronic News Gathering (ENG) as well as journalistic, documentary, corporate and higher education video production, look no further than the XA40 Professional Camcorder.

    Featuring an advanced 4K UHD CMOS Pro Image Sensor, a powerful DIG!C DV 6 Image Processor and a phenomenal 20x High Definition optical zoom lens, the XA40 camcorder captures expansive, high-quality 4K UHD video. Dual SD card slots that are compatible with universal SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards provide super-high capacity and ultra-fast data transfer.

    The compact XA40 includes a detachable handle for low-angle shooting and portability. Functionality is further enhanced with the addition of XLR inputs and an external microphone holder when the handle is attached. Combining a lightweight design, a 1.56 million dot electronic viewfinder and a 3.0-inch capacitive touch panel LCD, the XA40 is comfortable to operate for extended periods of time and in numerous environments.

    When there's no telling what or where the next story will be, the XA40 is ready to go. A remarkably versatile, powerful and compact camcorder, it delivers the quality, speed and connectivity to drive a 24-hour news workflow.

    The impressive image quality is enhanced by an 8-blade Circular Aperture design, which helps to avoid the "starburst" effect of point light sources in non-circular aperture designs. Out-of-focus areas are smooth, natural and appealing. An endless-type focus and zoom control includes user-programmable direction and sensitivity modes. Zoom speed can be set to either a variable or constant (with 16 levels) speed setting, with Fast, Normal or Slow zoom speed levels.

    For incredibly sharp and detailed high-definition video recording, the XA40 Professional Camcorder features a 1/2.3-inch, 8.9 Megapixel 4K UHD CMOS Pro Image Sensor that captures approximately 3840x2160 pixels. Thanks to the sensor's high sensitivity, the XA40 helps provide vivid, accurate recording through an excellent signal-to-noise ratio.

    Multiple recording modes, resolutions and frame rates make the XA40 Professional Camcorder creatively flexible and adaptable to virtually any news-gathering environment. It can record to an SD card in 4K UHD and Full HD resolutions using the MP4 recording codec, at multiple bit rates- and even record simultaneously.

    An HDMI terminal supports FHD 60p output, which can be connected to a standard external SSD/HDD recorder, enabling conversion to ProRes and DNx formats for efficient editing and storage.

    Simply Stunning!
    5 Stars
    Simply Stunning!
    At a resolution of 3840×2160 (aka 4K or Ultra HD at 30 frames per second--i.e. very smooth recording) and two SD slots (a lot of memory is really needed, the attached 23-seconds video is about 58-MB) this amazing camera also has 20x optical zooming--not to be confused with digital zooming--this is the real thing. While it has an embedded microphone, 2 additional microphone can be plugged in.A 141-page full manual doesn't come in the box, but it can be downloaded from "canon dot com slash icpd", select country, e.g. U.S.A., and search for XA40.Unfortunately, a large 4K video is considerably shrunk after uploading it to a review. So no justice can be served in showing how good the video quality is.I also added a high-resolution photo of a tree in Rochester, NY just before it will start snowing. 1-inch by 2.3-inch CMOS sensor allows more light to be captured than most phones or even smaller cameras, hence greater image quality. The size of the sensor is more impressive than the 16-MP characteristic. To make better sense of the sensor size, consider some of the best DSLRs and their sensor size is about 0.75-inch by 0.5-inch. This means this camera is far superior to any DSLR in low-light conditions.
