A light, compact 4K ENG camera, the XA50 is equipped with a 2.54cm type CMOS sensor and the DIGIC DV 6 image processor. Capable of recording in 4K UHD 25p in both XF-AVC and MP4 formats, it features the Dual Pixel CMOS AF system which helps users easily achieve the highly accurate pinpoint focus demanded by 4K recording. The high-resolution Canon 4K video zoom lens supports the large image sensor, and in combination, they enable the production of high-definition 4K footage. The lower power consumption enables a shooting time twice longer than that on the XF405, which uses the same battery. This, combined with its lightweight mobility, makes the XA50 a professional-standard camcorder ideal for long hours of shooting.
