A reliable, capable, all-purpose camcorder, the Canon XF105 High Definition Camcorder is Canon’s smallest model to include an MPEG-2, 50Mbps, 4:2:2 Full HD codec. Recording MPEG-2 MXF (Media eXchange Format) files at up to Full HD resolution at 50Mbps (4:2:2), the XF105 records to inexpensive CompactFlash (CF) cards, making the business of shooting as convenient as possible.

The XF105 bears two card slots, and this allows for a number of useful functions such as Relay Recording, which allows you to shoot from one slot to the other, meaning you can keep going for longer without interruption. Alternatively, there’s also Double Slot Recording, which records the same footage onto both cards simultaneously, providing peace of mind via a layer of redundancy. However you choose to shoot your footage, you’ll find the Canon XF105 a stable and reliable companion.
