DESCRIPTION

The Optura100 MC has a 1.3 megapixel CCD image sensor to capture outstanding digital video and digital photos at 1280 x 960 resolution, which is four times better than conventional 640 x 480 digital photo resolution found in other digital camcorders. The vertical design creates a fresh new look styled for single-hand operation, a popular feature with consumers that provides maximum versatility and performance. By incorporating a state-of-the-art megapixel CCD image sensor with over one million pixels into a digital camcorder, Canon has introduced a single camera that performs like two cameras in one - a digital camcorder that records high-resolution video and a digital camera capable of high- resolution digital photos.
