Features  
AVCHD DVD in a Compact Size  
The HG10 is Canon’s rst AVCHD (Advanced Video Codec High Denition) Format Hard Disk Drive  
camcorder. AVCHD uses an MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 video codec, recording true 1080 High Denition  
resolution video. It allows you to capture more video onto a hard disk using less storage, for extended  
recording time. You can play the video directly from the camcorder on your HDTV, or easily download  
it onto your Windows XP™ or Vista™ system computer for playback, editing or sharing with friends  
and family. You can also burn video onto DVDs which play in AVCHD compatible Blu-ray disc  
players.2 Higher audio quality is also yours with the AVCHD format. All of this comes in a compact  
AVCHD format HDD camcorder, measuring only 3.2” wide, 3” high and 5.1” deep.  
Added to the HG10’s handy size is the convenience of  
shooting high denition onto a hard disk. You’ll never  
tape over a precious moment by accident, since the disk  
automatically searches for a blank space on which to  
record.

Full HD onto a 40GB Hard Disk Drive  
The HG10 captures 1920 x 1080 High Denition resolution video onto a 40GB hard disk drive.  
A convenient format for anyone who wants to transfer video to a computer for viewing, editing or  
sharing, it also makes your life easier as you never have to worry about not carrying around enough  
recording media with you as you shoot your future memories. In LP mode, you’ll be able to record up  
to 15 hours of video. Even when shooting in super high quality mode, ve-and-a-half hours of footage  
is yours without taking a break to change tapes or DVDs.  
HDD recording also delivers true random-access play, letting you get to the scene you select instantly.  
With the HG10’s built-in HDMI (High-Denition Multimedia  
Interface) Terminal, it’s easy to transfer the HD video signal  
to your HDTV. With a single cable, you’ll send a pure digital  
signal, audio and video, to your television to get the ultimate  
HD viewing experience  
With hard disk drive recording you get true random-access play, letting you access the scene you  
want to see instantly. You’ll also have no fear of accidentally recording over footage you’ve already  
shot. Like a computer, the HG10 automatically searches for blank space on the drive onto which to  
record. It’s simple to delete unwanted footage and you can record as the action unfolds without worry.

Canon Exclusive: 1920x1080 Full HD CMOS Sensor  
The HG10 captures 1920x1080 High Denition video through its  
Canon designed and manufactured CMOS image sensor, similar  
to the CMOS image sensors in Canon’s EOS Series Digital SLR  
cameras.  
Compared to a CCD, the HG10’s CMOS’s high color resolution and  
advanced color reproduction gives brilliant results. It is also unique  
in featuring Canon’s proprietary noise reduction technologies for crisp, sharp images. Low noise  
technology also means that even in dimly lit  
scenes, the signal from each pixel is as pure as  
possible, with minimal noise or other aberrations.  
It’s the ideal sensor for HD.  
The HG10 uses an RGB Primary Color Filter with  
Bayer Placement Pattern that separates light  
into red, green and blue color components. This  
results in vibrant images with deep, rich, accurate  
color and natural-looking tones similar to what  
you’d obtain from 3CCD camcorders. In addition,  
the Bayer Placement Pattern delivers sharp high denition images with true-to-life color reproduction.  
As an added benet, the CMOS sensor provides outstanding image capture in  
low light conditions.

Canon 10x HD Video Zoom Lens  
Since 1934, Canon has been producing exceptional photographic lenses that are synonymous with  
unsurpassed optical performance. Because of Genuine Canon Optics, every Canon broadcast lens,  
35mm lm camera, digital camera and camcorder assures brilliant optical quality — and the HG10 is  
no exception.  
The HG10 comes with an outstanding High Denition video  
lens — a 10x HD Genuine Canon zoom lens. It’s the tool  
you need to record long shots of your child on the soccer  
eld, wide shots of beautiful landscapes, and everything  
in-between. And because it comes with three pre-set zoom  
speeds, you always get smooth, steady, professional-looking  
zoom shots.  
Super Spectra Coating technology results in images with  
minimal are and ghosting. Plus, the new lens’ aspheric design reduces aberration and increases  
resolution, ensuring crisp, sharp video and enhancing the HD image quality. Not only that, but a new  
gradation neutral density (ND) system gives you better exposures in bright shooting situations.  
In addition, for those times when you need to get a particular shot from a very long distance, this  
exible lens also has a 200x digital zoom.

Canon Exclusive: DIGIC DV II  
DIGIC DV II is the next generation of Canon’s exclusive DIGIC DV signal processing technology.  
Designed specically for HD, DIGIC DV II ensures optimal image quality. It also ensures optimal  
image quality for still images, even though video and still images have different color requirements.  
DIGIC DV II is just another one of Canon’s advanced technologies that make the HG10 an  
exceptional performer.  
Thanks to DIGIC DV II image processing, the HG10 produces video with improved color reproduction  
— especially in skin tones, and dark and light scenes. It also uses a hybrid noise reduction system  
that employs two types of noise reduction — for high denition images that are crystal clear.  
Plus, DIGIC DV II features improved continuous shooting of digital photographs with the HG10. You  
can shoot ve (3.1 Megapixel) still images per second, and enjoy faster processing of your images to  
your memory card (1.4x normal card; 2.5x Hi Speed card). It also helps lower power consumption for  
longer battery life.

Canon Exclusive: SuperRange Optical Image Stabilization  
The high-resolution images of High Denition video demand a steady hand. It’s easier to get those  
clear, steady images with the HG10, thanks to Canon’s innovative SuperRange Optical Image  
Stabilization. It combines gyro- and image-sensors to give image stabilization through a wider range  
of camera motions. Some image stabilization systems correct one type of camera motion or vibration  
better than another. But Canon’s SuperRange OIS corrects for a wide range of camcorder motion: the  
fast vibration you’d experience while recording from a moving car; the medium-speed motion of hand-  
held recording; and the slower motion of body sway. No matter what you’re recording and how you’re  
recording it, the HG10’s stabilization design corrects camcorder shake instantly. SuperRange OIS  
also delivers steady images when shooting at long focal lengths.  
In addition, optical stabilization keeps your shot steady without a loss  
in image quality — something that can’t be said for electronic image  
stabilization. And image stabilization isn’t just for video; you can even use  
it for taking sharper, clearer digital photographs with your HG10. Thanks to  
Canon’s expertise, it’s easy to eliminate one of the telltale signs of amateur  
video and photography.

Canon Exclusive: Instant AF  
Another critical objective when shooting in High Denition is achieving a very sharp focus. The  
HG10 camcorder features Canon’s revolutionary Instant AF focusing system which offers a dramatic  
improvement in auto focus speed and accuracy (compared to traditional auto focus systems). The  
Instant AF feature uses an external sensor, in combination with Canon’s auto focus system, to  
help signicantly decrease the time it takes to nd focus, even in low light conditions. This system  
achieves focus instantaneously, reducing focus “hunting.” The benets of Instant AF are especially  
seen in high brightness and night shooting situations. With Instant AF, it’s possible to capture fast,  
accurate focusing, even when following a moving subject.  
24p Cinema Mode  
Normal Recording  
24p Cinema Mode  
24p Cinema Mode enables all aspiring moviemakers to achieve a  
professional “lm-look.” You can change the camcorder’s frame capture  
rate to 24p (recorded at 60i), which provides the appearance of the  
same frame rate as movie lm. In addition, you can use the HG10’s  
CINE setting, which changes the color and tonal characteristics, evoking  
the look and feel of a movie shown in a theater. For added exibility,  
these settings can be used together or independently.

HDD Still Photo Grab from Video  
Another useful and advanced feature you will nd on the HG10 is the capability to capture still  
frame images onto a miniSD™ card from recorded video on the hard disk drive. None of Canon’s  
competitors in this class allows you to review your already shot footage to select just the right still  
to save and share.* It’s just one more way the HG10 gives you more exibility to meet your creative  
desires.  
*As of August 1, 2007  
Canon Exclusive: 2.7” Multi-Angle Vivid Widescreen LCD  
The 2.7” Multi-Angle Vivid Widescreen LCD on the HG10 lets you see more of what your camcorder  
is recording. Using a hard coat Anti Reective surface and improved color reproduction, the scene  
in the viewnder is more accurate to what you’re capturing in the camcorder. An added benet is  
the wider range of viewing angles possible with this new LCD screen. With less glare and deeper  
contrasts, groups of people can gather around it and see the image displayed more clearly than ever  
before.

Superb Shooting Control  
Navigation Control Dial  
The HG10’s direct-operation Navigation Control Dial makes it easy and convenient  
to operate. Located on the LCD control panel, it allows you to select the navigation  
buttons you want with a turn of the dial. Simply press the “Set” button on the LCD  
monitor and your choice is conrmed. You can also select footage for playback by  
using this button.  
Variable Zoom Speed Control  
Another sure sign of amateur video is the unsteady zoom  
shot. But with the HG10’s zoom control, you simply select  
one of three pre-set zoom speeds for smooth, steady,  
professional looking zooms.  
Focus Assist Function  
The image quality of High Denition demands a properly focused subject. The Focus Assist feature  
on the HG10 gives you sharp focus by zooming into your image to let you focus on a close up of  
your subject. It’s the way professional videographers and photographers work manually. A Peaking  
function also helps, by emphasizing image contours.  
Level and Grid Markers  
With the Level Marker feature, it’s easy to keep  
your camera level for more professional looking  
video. Line up any horizontal lines in your shot --  
such as the horizon -- to the marker and you can  
be sure your camcorder is level.  
The HG10’s Grid Marker feature lets you  
compose your shot accurately, according to the  
grid in your viewnder. You can even choose from  
two different colors for the grid. This ensures that  
you see the grid, no matter what the background  
color of your shot is.

Program AE Mode  
For the best exposure for various situations, the HG10’s Program AE mode  
will automatically adjust the settings to compensate for the conditions and  
subject. Choose from Portrait, Sports, Night, Snow, Beach, Sunset, Spotlight  
and Fireworks. You won’t have to guess if you’re capturing all the action just  
the way you want it because the HG10 will do it for you.  
Quick Start  
Never miss a quickly unfolding shot again. Push the Quick Start button  
between shots -it places the HG10 in standby mode. When the action starts,  
push the Quick Start button again to begin recording in less than one second.  
You’ll also help extend your battery life compared with leaving the camcorder  
in regular recording mode.  
Low Light Performance  
By increasing the sensitivity of the HG10s HD CMOS sensor  
and using improved xed-pattern “noise” reduction technology,  
you can now shoot clearer, sharper video at very low light levels.  
When taken with a 1/30 sec. slow shutter, subjects can be shot  
at light levels as low as just 3 lux. You won’t be afraid to shoot  
indoors or in poorly lit outdoor locations again.  
Built-in Electronic Lens Cover  
Never worry about a lost lens cover or one that gets in your way when shooting.  
The built-in electronic lens cover on the HG10 automatically opens when you turn  
the camcorder on and closes when you turn it off.

Advanced Accessory Shoe Terminal  
Shoot video like the professionals do, with the accessories that give you  
the best in audio and lighting. The HG10’s advanced accessory shoe  
provides the power for an accessory video light, video ash or directional  
stereo microphone- the things you need to bring your video to the next  
level.  
Microphone / Headphone Terminal  
Enhance the quality of your audio by using an accessory microphone to capture better sound and  
headphones to monitor the audio as you hear it. Your videos will sound as good as they look.  
Built-in Ultra Video Light  
Some of the most magical shots are taken at the end of the day or long after  
the sun has set. You won’t miss any of them, thanks to the HG10’s bright  
built-in Ultra Video Light. The light lets you shoot subjects in color in low light  
up to 4.9 feet away. So, whether it’s a shot of a sleeping baby or a dramatic  
skyline at night, the HG10 captures all the moments you want to record.  
Long Recording Time  
You can truly take advantage of the long recording times offered by  
HDD video thanks to the performance of the HG10. It allows you to  
record up to 5 hours and 30 minutes of video in XP+ mode, 11 hours  
30 minutes in SP mode or up to 15 hours in LP mode. All this without  
the worry of running out of recording media. Your Actual Recording  
Time (continuous on battery charge) can be up to 70 minutes with the  
LCD used in the Normal brightness mode. Getting the shots you want,  
when you want them, will be easier than ever.

Advanced Photo Features  
The HG10 has many advanced photo features which make it a camera that rivals other state-of-the-  
art digital cameras. You get the best of both video and photos.  
HDD Still Photo Grab from Video  
Another Canon exclusive feature on the HG10 is the capability to capture still frame images from  
video recorded onto the hard disk drive. None of Canon’s competitors allow you to review your  
already shot footage to select just the right still to save and share.* It’s just one more way the HG10  
gives you more exibility to meet your creative desires.  
*As of August 1, 2007  
3.1 Megapixel Photos  
The same Canon CMOS image sensor that ensures sharp, vivid HD video also gives you brilliant  
digital photographs. Like the CMOS image sensors in Canon’s EOS Series digital SLR cameras, the  
HG10’s image sensor results in outstanding digital photographs. It gives an impressive resolution of  
1920 x 1440 for sharp, crisp still images.  
DIGIC DV II  
DIGIC DV II features improved continuous shooting of digital photographs with the HG10. You can  
shoot ve (3.1 Megapixel) still images per second, and enjoy faster processing of your images to your  
memory card (1.4x normal card; 2.5x Hi Speed card).

Focus Features  
Auto Intelligent Auto Focus (AiAF) ensures sharp images and gives creative exibility. Even when  
your subject isn’t in the center of the frame, the HG10’s 9-Point AiAF will automatically select from  
nine metering frames on the screen to help bring images into sharp focus.  
Since it is critical to achieve very sharp focus when shooting in High Denition, the HG10 camcorder  
features Canon’s revolutionary and exclusive Instant AF focusing system. It offers a dramatic  
improvement in auto focus speed and accuracy (compared to traditional auto focus systems). The  
Instant AF feature uses an external sensor, in combination with Canon’s auto focus system, to help  
signicantly decrease the time it takes to nd focus, even in low light conditions. This new system  
achieves focus instantaneously, reducing focus “hunting.” The benets of Instant AF are especially  
seen in high brightness, and night shooting situations. It’s even possible to capture fast, accurate  
focusing, even when following a moving subject.  
And because a properly focused subject is more critical than ever with HD, the HG10 also features  
Focus Assist. This helps in capturing your subject in razor sharp focus. (When you start recording,  
this assistance is automatically cancelled.)  
Auto Exposure Modes  
Like any good digital still camera, the HG10 lets you choose from a range of exposure modes. Auto  
mode automatically sets the exposure, letting you concentrate on your subject. AV (aperture priority)  
mode lets you control depth of eld by letting you choose the aperture. TV (shutter priority) mode lets  
you select the shutter speed for sharp, action shots. In P (program) mode, the camcorder adjusts  
camera settings automatically.

Program AE Mode  
Your life happens everywhere, so the HG10 gives you settings that automatically result in the best  
exposure settings for different conditions and different subjects.  
Portrait mode ensures shallow depth of eld for a pleasing background to your shots of friends and  
family. Sports mode stops the action with faster shutter speeds. Night mode is designed to give you  
great shots after the sun goes down. Snow and Beach modes compensate for bright surroundings  
and give you the proper exposure on your subject. Sunset mode results in vibrant, well-exposed  
colors for one of the toughest subjects to capture. Use Spotlight mode when your child is on stage  
and in the spotlight — literally — and you want to make sure the exposure is right for them. And  
Fireworks mode records brilliant images of another tough subject: the holiday reworks display.  
Simultaneous Photo Recording  
With the HG10, you can record HD video and capture a 2 Megapixel  
photo to a memory card — simultaneously. Simply press the photo  
button and you’ve got an email-ready digital photo to share with friends  
and family.  
Histogram Display  
For the advanced digital photographer, the HG10 comes with a  
Histogram Display — a feature found in Canon’s line of digital SLR  
cameras. The display allows you to see the brightness information of  
your still images, so you can adjust your exposures as you shoot.

Level and Grid Markers  
With the Level Marker feature, it’s easy to keep your camera  
level for more professional-looking photographs. Line up any  
horizontal lines in your shot — such as the horizon — to the  
marker and you can be sure your camcorder is level.  
The HG10’s Grid Marker feature lets you compose your  
shot accurately, according to the grid in your viewnder.  
You can even choose from two different colors for the grid.  
This ensures that you see the grid, no matter what the  
background color of your shot is.  
Photo Grab from Hard Drive  
The versatile HG10 even lets you capture a still image from an already recorded movie. While  
playing the movie in your camcorder, simply press the photo button to capture a 2.07 Megapixel 16:9  
still frame on a miniSD™ card. It’s another way the HG10 lets you enjoy and share your precious  
memories.  
Built-in Flash  
Your HG10’s built-in ash lets you capture superb photos indoors and in low light conditions. The  
HG10 also features red-eye reduction.
