Features a Dual Flash Memory system which has 64 GB of internal flash memory and unlimited capacity on SDHC cards. The video is stunning at full 1920×1080 (1080p) resolution and uses a Canon designed and manufactured 1/2.6″ 8.59 Megapixel Full HD CMOS Image Sensor (similar to the CMOS image sensors in Canon’s EOS Series Digital SLR cameras).
