OVERVIEW

Shoot high quality 4K UHD video with the compact XA60. The camera delivers outstanding oversampled HD, advanced autofocus, a Canon 20x optical zoom lens, HD livestreaming with UVC1 via a USB-C connection to a PC or Mac and can capture footage for recording or sharing later in either XF-AVC or MP4 formats.

Compact professional 4K UHD camcorder

Capture stunning 4K UHD and Full HD images thanks to a 4K 1/2.3" type CMOS sensor and DIGIC DV6 image processor. Oversampled HD delivers Full HD images from the 4K sensor.

On-Screen Display (OSD) “Time Stamp” Recording

New to XA-Series cameras, the OSD recording embeds date, time, timecode, and other data into your original camera files effectively “time stamping” the information into each frame of video, a requirement for legal and law enforcement videographers.
