Canon XF305 Professional HD Camcorder - Factory Certified.  One of the best HD video cameras Canon ever made.  Unlike many of Canon's cameras, they designed a special lens specifically for the XF 305.for unparalleled clarity and versatility. You should definitely use Youtube to study up on this camera.  It's truly legendary.  The 18x digital zoom capabilities and Canon's patented stabilizing feature work well together to shoot very distant objects with precision.  The camera produces incredible slow motion video and is capable of 3D shooting if you have more than one XF 305.  I mainly used it to video my tennis student in slow motion so they can see themselves to understand what they are doing wrong and right.  Comes with a Sandisk 128GB Extreme Pro CompactFlash card that gives you hours of continuous recording depending on your settings.  The Extreme is very fast so it can capture video quickly at a rate of about 160MB per second.  There's an additional bay for another CF memory card and you can set the XF 305 to automatically start recording on the second card when the first CF card is out of memory.  There's not enough room here to really discuss the features.  I'll just say, there are more features than even the average professional will need.  Shoots 1920 by 1080 to an SD card that I am also including in the deal.  The SD card also allows you to save multiple setting profiles for different lighting conditions or different types of events.  Just retrieve your settings from the SD card and your are ready to shoot.  Never overheated on me or shut down.  It comes with a remote to turn it off and on from a distance of to take stills.  It comes with AC Charger/Adapter with the additional power cord to run the XF 305 on AC instead of using the battery.
