Inheriting the basic features of the H660 including high-quality image and stereo sound, Canon developed the H800
/ E800Hi with automatic shooting mode. In particular, it achieved smooth focusing by utilizing fuzzy logic for autofocus. It also adopted auto-tracking autofocus, enabling to track a moving subject and automatically focus on a subject even off the center of the screen.Video recording system | H800 | 2 rotary heads, helical scanning system (NTSC) – Luminance signal: FM azimuth recording – Chrominance signal: Converted subcarrier phase shift recording |
