Equipped with a 20x optical zoom lens (35 mm film equivalent: 26.8 mm–576 mm), iVIS HF G21 allows users to meet the shooting needs of a wide range of fields with a single camcorder. What’s more, employing a Hi-UD lens¹, the camera makes possible vivid imaging with reduced chromatic aberration. During handheld shooting situations, the Dynamic Mode provides five-axis image stabilization—roll axis, horizontal roll, vertical roll, up-down and left-right—to ensure smooth video capture with minimal camera shake, even when shooting while walking. Drawing from the technology found in EF lenses, the lens employs an eight-blade circular aperture² that makes possible video capture with beautiful, natural looking bokeh.

The camcorder features a High-luminance Priority mode that achieves enhanced textural expression—bringing out such textural characteristics as the three-dimensionality of clouds and the translucence of water—by automatically correcting camera brightness to capture images with enhanced mid- to high-luminance gradation, color reproduction and sharpness, even for scenes with backlit subjects with muted dark areas.

Thanks to Wide DR, which smoothly compresses high-luminance areas, the camcorder achieves a wide dynamic range of 600%, the camcorder makes possible shooting with smooth color gradation and suppressed overexposure, even in shooting environments where the difference between light and dark areas is prone to causing overexposure. Also maintaining a degree of color grading freedom, Wide DR can be utilized for video production. Additionally, equipped with a Slow/Fast Segment function that allows users to select shooting speeds from 0.4x² to a maximum of 1,200x³, the camcorder makes possible rich video expression.

The iVIS HF G21 employs an adjustable approximately 1.56 million dot equivalent 0.24” viewfinder, which tilts upwards approximately 45° for effective low-angle shooting, and a seesaw-type zoom key, which enables zoom operations that are ideal for professional and high-amateur users.
