The DC420 faithfully captures your memories in sharp, clear video, thanks to an advanced image sensor and intelligent Canon processing. It records straight to mini DVD discs, so your home movies are available instantly for playback on most newer DVD players. And Canon's 16:9 recording mode produces crisp, detailed, wide-format home movies — great for folks who have a widescreen TV and want their videos to fit perfectly.

The powerful 37X optical zoom lens gives you a clear view of distant subjects, and it's enhanced with digital processing that allows zoom up to 48X with virtually no loss of image quality. Built-in image stabilization minimizes blurred footage that can result from a shaky hand. Compose your shots with the color viewfinder, or on the widescreen LCD. For more professional-looking footage, use the selectable level and grid markers on the LCD to frame your subject and keep your shot even with the horizon. A high-speed USB port on the cam lets you transfer your videos and photos to your PC for editing, easy sharing, and backup storage.
