The Canon Legria HF G50 is a lightweight digital video camera that records ultra-high resolution 4K video footage at 30p. It also captures extra-sharp Full HD with an oversampling process that utilises the UHD (3840x2160) sensor readout. But that’s not all, the camcorder also has a 20x zoom lens with built-in image stabilisation to keep your shots stable, as well as a 3-inch touch LCD screen and electronic viewfinder that allows you to frame your shot perfectly.

1/2.3-inch Image Sensor

At the heart of the Canon HFG50 is a 1/2.3-inch CMOS image sensor capable of recording impressive ultra-high resolution 3840x2160 video footage. 4K video footage is such a high resolution that individual frames can be exported as stills and printed as large as A3.

Canon DIGIC DV 6 Processing Power

Using the power of the DIGIC DV 6 image processor, the camcorder has a HD processing function that oversamples the 4K sensor readout to produce 1920x1080 video footage that is sharper than traditional Full HD video without the large file sizes 4K video creates.

Portable Compact Camcorder

Designed to be the perfect blend of convenience and quality, the HF G50 only weighs a mere 735g making it an incredibly lightweight and portable camcorder. Although small and easy to carry, Canon refused to compromise on quality, packing a stack of great features and functions under the hood.

20x Zoom

A massive 20x optical zoom makes the Canon HFG 50 an incredibly versatile and well-rounded piece of video equipment with an equivalent focal range of 29.3-601mm. This telephoto reach allows you to capture far away details and intimate moments quickly and easily with the touch of a button.

Built-in Image Stabilisation

It is notoriously hard to keep a shot steady if the lens is fully extended, which is why Canon have integrated an image stabilisation system into the HF G50 that uses a combination of optical and electronic correction for more steady looking footage.

Optical Image Quality

Canon are world renown for creating quality imaging products and the LEGRIA HFG50 is no exception. The built-in lens has an 8-bladed aperture that can create a beautifully soft depth-of-field, especially when shooting at the tele-photo end of the 20x zoom.

Zoom and Focus Control Ring

Designed to make operation more intuitive the HFG50 has a stack of features to help you get the shots you want. A large control ring at the front of the camcorder can be switched between controlling the zoom or focus settings of the lens, giving you refined control over your production. 

The Canon LEGRIA HF G50 is perfect for enthusiast and advanced amateur videographer, with a 20x optical zoom, built-in image stabilisation and a lightweight body design that weighs only 735g.
