Key Specs
Effective Pixels: 2.07 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
Standardized Video Resolution: Full HD (1080p) (An approximated measurement of the product’s video resolution. This may not be the exact resolution of the product, which may be slightly more or less when using a pixel-by-pixel measurement.)
General
Brand: Canon
Model Number: 0280C001
Product Name: VIXIA HF R600 HD Flash Memory Camcorder
Color: Black
Imaging
Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
Image Resolution (Display): 1920 x 1080 (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, used to either capture an image or display it. The higher the resolution the finer the image details.)
Digital Zoom: 1140x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
Image File Format(s): JPEG, RAW (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
Exposure Control
Minimum Aperture: f/1.8 (The smallest opening of a lens, typically expressed in f-numbers. The larger the number, the smaller the aperture and the less light that can enter the lens. A smaller aperture creates a larger depth of field, which keeps both foreground and background in focus.)
Maximum Aperture: f/1.8 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)
Maximum Focal Length: 89.6 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
Effective Pixels: 2.07 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
Lens
Minimum Focal Length: 2.8 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
Display
Display Type: LCD
Screen Size: 3 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
Aspect Ratio: 16:9 (The measurement of the width of a screen compared to the height of a screen, expressed as a ratio.)
Touch Screen: true (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
Video
Standardized Video Resolution: Full HD (1080p) (An approximated measurement of the product’s video resolution. This may not be the exact resolution of the product, which may be slightly more or less when using a pixel-by-pixel measurement.)
Video Encoding Formats: MP4, MPEG-4 (The process of preparing the video for output, where the digital video is encoded to meet proper formats and specifications for recording and playback with the use of a compatible device.)
Storage
Number of Memory Card Slots: 1
Compatibility
Memory Card Compatibility: Secure Digital, Secure Digital Extended Capacity (SDXC), Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC) (The type of memory card(s) recommended for use with the product.)
Features
Face Detection: true (A function that automatically detects human faces and then sets focus and appropriate exposure to capture them.)
Wind Noise Reduction: false (If you take a lot of outside videos, in windy conditions, you'll need to make sure you have wind noise reduction on your camcorder. It does just what it says it does, cuts down the noise of the wind as it hits the microphone.)
Connectivity
Wireless Connectivity: None (The manner in which a device sends data to another device over a short distance without the use of wires or cables.)
Output(s): HDMI, USB
Power
Rechargeable Battery: true
AC Adapter Compatible: true (The device is able to be charged using an external power adapter which meets input and output voltages specified by the manufacturer.)
Battery Size: Battery pack (The battery size required for operation.)
Included
Batteries Included: true (Indicates whether the product comes with the required batteries for its operation.)
AC Adapter Included: true (An external power adapter is included for operation.)
Memory Card Included: false (Indicates whether a memory card is included.)
Dimensions
Product Height: 2.3 inches (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Best HD quality Video Cam for the money--period
I like everything about the camera, except the screen is hard to see in bright sunlight. Other than that it is a perfect camera for traveling and making videos of animals and people in places like the rain forest. Small, but not too small, light weight, and great battery life.
I love it, and my friends love my videos.
