Canon 4K sensor
A 4K sensor and DIGIC DV6 image processor deliver crisp, sharp UHD images and an 8-blade iris achieves cinema-style out-of-focus highlights. Frame your shot with the ultra-bright 3.5-inch LCD or use the built in electronic viewfinder (EVF).
On-Screen Display (OSD) “Time Stamp” Recording
OSD recording embeds date, time, timecode, and other data into your original camera files effectively “time stamping” the information into each frame of video, a requirement for legal and law enforcement videographers.
UVC Livestreaming
Stream HD video directly from the camera via UVC1 to a PC or Mac computer.
Take creative control
Add impact to your films with dynamic wide and close up shots captured with powerful 20x optical zoom & advanced image stabilization. Customize the camera with five assignable buttons & use the built-in ND filters to adjust exposure for wider apertures or slower shutter speeds.
Fast, precise focusing with face detection
The VIXIA HF G70 features an advanced Hybrid AF system with focusing speed adjustable for either Fast or Smooth AF. Using the ultra-bright 3.5-inch LCD display, set the focus by simply touching the AF point you need.
For even greater accuracy and convenience, especially with busy environments where you need to keep a subject in frame, Face Detection AF and Face Tracking is also available while Manual Focus is set via the focus/zoom ring.
