The UC-X10Hi was developed as a midrange model in Canon’s lineup of Hi8 video camcorders. Its 22x optical zoom lens with image stabilizer was the most powerful in its class at the time of its release. It also featured easy-to-use editing functions and customizable keys. Canon’s proprietary optical image stabilizer performs best in telephoto range, resulting in smooth, high-quality images in Hi8 format.
