they won't get lost among your other videos. You can view the Baby
Album chronologically as well.

camcorder's Pre-Record (Pre REC) function is always on. This places the
camcorder in a stand-by "pre-roll" mode, where it continuously records
three seconds of video to memory before you even press the record
button. When you start recording, the additional video is recorded too,
so you won't miss your baby's "first" moments.

height and weight. And with a single registration of the baby's birth
date, the camcorder will automatically calculate the number of days old
and stamp videos accordingly, creating an exact diary of developmental
milestones for years to come. The camcorder's other Baby Mode Touch
Decoration options allow you to add your own drawings, captions,
animations and more. All options can be appended to previously shot
video as well.

video while the camcorder takes care of all the details. The system
recognizes 38 shooting situations based on numerous factors, then
automatically chooses the optimal settings for the situation. When you
shoot a nearby subject in telephoto zoom mode, Auto Tele Macro gives
your video the high-end artistic effect of a well-focused subject
against a blurred background.
- Genuine Canon Face Detection
-
The same high quality Face Detection technology used in
Canon digital cameras is available in Canon HD camcorders. Up to 35
faces can be tracked automatically, ensuring sharp focus and accurate
exposure. Of the faces tracked, nine detection frames can be displayed
at one time. The system will even recognize faces turned downwards or
sideways. In addition, a specific face may be selected as the main
subject for continuous tracking. This feature also helps when you're
searching for clips that feature a specific subject's face. In search
and playback, use of the Face Index will display those frames with the
chosen face as a thumbnail in each shot in which it appears. Your
selected face can also be linked as a timeline to further identify
footage containing your subject.

This feature offers a choice of seven varied built-in
adjustable filters, which give the look of a variety of cinematic styles
by compensating for the color, gamma and other aspects of the image's
quality. The looks can be previewed in the LCD monitor while shooting,
and also applied post-capture for additional convenience and
versatility. Choose from Cinema Standard, Old Movies, Vivid, Cool,
Nostalgic, Dramatic Black & White or Sepia. For even greater
control, the brightness of each filter can be set to low, medium or
high. When Cinema Standard is selected, color depth, softening and
contrast can also be adjusted.

once-in-a-lifetime trip or a family milestone with the same ease as

attention. Video Snapshot allows selectable recording times of two, four
or eight seconds. Additionally, audio from an external source such as

rate as movie film. It does this by capturing at a frame rate of 24p and
