Movies and photos on DVD
Conveniently recording straight to DVD (-R/-RW), shooting eye-catching video and great looking digital photos is easy - simply transfer the finalised disc to your home player.

True widescreen
The DC100 is ready to record high resolution true widescreen 16:9 movies. It features a colour viewfinder and a wide 2.7" LCD screen, allowing video footage to be monitored exactly as it will appear on a widescreen TV set. The LCD includes a level marker to help centre the horizon.

16:9 and 4:3
Switching between 16:9 widescreen and 4:3 shooting modes is easy and done at the push of a single button.

Powerful 25x optical zoom
A powerful, precision engineered 25x optical zoom delivers great looking footage. While Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) eliminates unwanted vibration, a range of different zoom speeds are available for greater control.

DIGIC DV for vivid colours
Thanks to Canon's DIGIC DV processor, separate signal paths are provided for video and stills, ensuring that colours are optimised and remain vivid and vibrant for each.

Ultra compact design
In a smooth and rounded body, the compact DC100 is perfectly portable, measuring just 52 x 86 x 123mm and weighing under 440g.

Built-in lens cover
The DC100's lens is always protected thanks to a convenient sliding lens cover incorporated into the camcorder's body.
