Are you looking for an affordable and uncomplicated way to record family functions and maybe the occasional vacation? With Canon's entry-level DC410 DVD Camcorder you can capture events, like your child's birthday, and immediately watch the footage on your TV. Just pop the DVD into your player and enjoy every moment right then and there with your friends and family. And, because the DC410 also captures still images, there's no need to have multiple devices strapped around your neck. DVD-R/-RW disks will hold up to 60 minutes of video and DVD-R DL disks up to 108 minutes; still images can be stored to SDHC cards.
The DC410 also features Canon's DIGIC DV II Image Processor and a 1/6" CCD sensor for recording clean video and stills, while the 41x Advanced Zoom brings your far off subjects closer with clarity. At the same time, electronic image stabilization makes shooting easier by correcting for hand shake and the occasional slight bump to the elbow. In addition, both external microphone and headphone terminals assist in recording enhanced audio over what you can capture with just the internal microphone. The DC410 keeps it simple and still offers up a few extras.
