Canon XA55 4K Camcorder

• Canon XA55 features a large, Dual pixel CMOS AF-capable 1.0- type sensor that not only lets the user achieve shallow focus effects unique to that sensor size, but also boasts improved noise performance, resulting in higher quality footage in low light situations.
• ​​​​​​​The camcorder supports both the XF-AVC and MP4 formats as well as internal recording in 4K UHD YCC 4:2:0 8-bit 25P/30P. The dual SD card slots enable both simultaneous and relay recording. A 3G-SDI terminal supports output in
• The ultra-high resolution in 4K means that it is more obvious than ever if the shot is the slightest bit out of focus, or has the tiniest hint of focus seeking.
• Dual pixel CMOS AF is a technology developed by Canon, wherein each image sensor pixel is equipped with two photodiodes, making it possible for all pixels to perform both phase detection and imaging. This enhances its ability to accurately establish the location of subjects and achieve precise, tack-sharp focus — perfect for enhancing the quality of your 4K footage.
• Features such as Touch AF, Face Detection AF and touch tracking further support the creation of high-quality 4K video. 
• To support 4K shooting with the large, 1.0-type CMOS sensor, the XA55 is equipped with a Canon 4K video lens. Featuring a high-magnification 15x optical zoom that covers a focal length range from 25.5mm (wide-angle) to 382.5mm (telephoto), the lens incorporates a
• ​​​​​​​9-blade iris aperture diaphragm capable of producing more natural and beautiful bokeh. It also features a built-in motor-powered ND filter that can reduce light by three densities: 1/4, 1/16 and 1/64. The XA55 is also equipped with 5 axis image stabilization, made possible through a combination of optical and electronic image stabilization systems.
• Updates have also been made to improve usability. These include a redesigned UI that makes it easier to find and configure settings; terminals (including a 3G-SDI terminal) optimally repositioned for easier usage; and the MIC jack enhanced to support plug-in power. All these features are packed into a compact, lightweight body that, at  975g (main body only), is 20% lighter than the XF405, promising enhanced mobility.
