Learn More about the Canon XA35
The Canon XA35 gives the graet usability of the Canon XA30 but for multicam set ups or the need to feed footage over longer ditances than HDMI this video camera also provides an SDI output perfect for live streaming or multicam shoots when being fed to a vision mixer perfect for school performances and conferences that need to be streamed or fed to large screens live
The quality is very similar to that oof a DSLR and works well with Canon profiles so if your main camera is a Canon DSLR or a higher specified Canon Video camera then this footage will match in nicely for you saving you a headache in post its usin 4:2:2 like DSLRs and packs lots of broadcast features should you need them
It’s been a very popular camcorder for wedding photographers and other professional videographers. Although its footage is closer to DLSR quality (4:2:0) than the type used by network news stations (4:2:2), it’s packed with features far superior to a consumer model.
If your recording a rugby match or a skateboarder then you can record at 60FPS allowing you to capture fast paced action smoothly and take advantage of both digital image stabilisation and optical stabilisation
If you’re new recording video the you can relax knowing that setting the camera to auto will take care of everything for you including the white balance but you can also set that manually if you would prefer and the expososure is deal with again if you would prefer you can adjust this using the iris dial easily and then there is the clever focus option that will find and track faces to keep everything sharp and crisp for you.
Audio wise the caneras in built mic is actually pretty good but remember this will capture audio from all around the camera if you need more focused sound then you can add a top mic to give you a more directional pick up or if you want to hear just the person you are filming then a wirless lapel mic will do the trick for you without having to worry about picking up any distracting sounds around
In your package is two batteries giving you upto 8 hiurs operating time or you can plug your hired Canon XA35 directly into the mains to give you continious power

Transferring Footage
It’s easier than you think to get the footage from the Canon XA30 to your computer
Learn More
An important point to bear in mind is ensure you copy everything over from thetop level of folders, for example dont just copy the actual video clips over, if you do not copy all the files over you can run into trouble when trying to play back or import the footage, the other files on the card will be the data files that your computer will need to access to make sense of the clips without this oimportant information you will be left with video that you may be unable to play
So be safe copy everything from the top folders across to your computer and you will be safe to return the video camera knowing you have everything you need to complete your video edit
