Highlights of the VIXIA GX10

The Canon VIXIA GX10 4K Camcorder is a high-performance camcorder whose compact size makes it ideal in a

variety of situations. The following are just some of the many functions featured in the camcorder.

4K Recording

Advanced sensor and image processor

The camcorder is equipped with a

1.0-inch CMOS sensor that captures video at an

effective pixel count of approximately 8.29

megapixels (3840x2160). The video is then

processed by the state-of-the-art dual DIGIC DV 6

image processing platform. This allows the

camcorder to excel in low-light situations and

achieve improved image stabilization.

Wide zoom lens

The camcorder features a 15x optical zoom lens

with a focal length at full wide angle of 25.5 mm

(35 mm equivalent), offering superb wide-angle

shooting capability.

Convenience and Functionality

Emphasis on versatility

This camcorder has features to make it usable as a

main camera but is also small enough to be very

portable. The advanced image stabilization (A 56)

will let you shoot in a variety of situations in the field.

Manual controls at your fingertips

The focus/zoom ring helps you achieve the focus

you are looking for. You can easily change the ring's

functionality so that you can operate the zoom. You

can also assign certain frequently used functions to

a customizable button and adjust those functions

with the accompanying dial (A 85). Additionally,

the camcorder also features 5 assignable buttons

on the camcorder and one onscreen assignable

touch button to which you can assign a variety of

functions to access them with ease (A 86).

SD card recording options

The camcorder can record 4K video in MP4 format

on an SD card. It is equipped with 2 SD card slots,

allowing you to use dual recording (A 43) to record

the same clip on two SD cards, or relay recording to

automatically switch to the other SD card when the

one being used is full. Dual recording is a convenient

way to create a backup of your recordings, while

relay recording effectively extends the available

recording time.

Network functions

(A 103)

You can connect the camcorder to a Wi-Fi network.

This allows you to control the camcorder remotely

from a connected network device using the Browser

Remote application (A 111) and to easily transfer

files to a remote FTP server using the FTP protocol

(A 119).

Time code options

(A 68)

The time code generated by the camcorder can be

output from the HDMI OUT terminal in order to

synchronize it with other external devices. A user bit

code (A 70) can also be output with the output

signal.

Dual Pixel CMOS AF

The camera features Dual Pixel CMOS AF

technology for improved autofocus functions

(A 45). In addition to continuous AF, AF-boosted

MF lets you focus manually most of the way and let

the camcorder finish focusing automatically. With

AF-boosted MF the camcorder does not perform

unreliable focus adjustments, resulting in a smoother

focusing operation than with continuous AF. The

camcorder can also focus automatically on people's

faces and track moving subjects while keeping them

in focus (A 50).

Even while focusing manually, the newly-added Dual

Pixel Focus Guide function (A 46) serves as a

visual, intuitive guide that you can use to check if the

image is in focus and the required adjustment, if it is

not. This can be very helpful to ensure you always

get amazingly sharp 4K video.

4

Creativity and Artistic Expression

Special recording modes (A 44, 80)

When you make recordings, you can change the

recording frame rate to achieve a fast or slow motion

effect. Alternatively, you can use pre-recording to

record 3 seconds before you decide to start

recording, helping you capture those hard-to-catch

opportunities.

Looks (

A 67)

You can adjust various aspects of the picture, such

as the color depth, sharpness and brightness, to

create a desired "look". If you prefer, you can use

one of the preset looks offered. The [Wide DR] look,

for example, applies a gamma curve with a very

wide dynamic range and an appropriate color

matrix.

Other Features

• Battery packs compatible with Intelligent System

give you an estimate (in minutes) of the remaining

recording time.

• Compatibility with the optional GP-E2 GPS

Receiver to geotag your recordings (A 82).

• Multiple image stabilization options (A 56) to

match your recording conditions.

• Compatibility with the optional RC-V100 Remote

Controller (A 81) when you need a professional

level of remote control far surpassing that of the

supplied wireless controller.

• Clear, adjustable LCD panel (A 21) and

adjustable viewfinder (A 21) for ease of use

regardless of the recording angle.

Preparations

Preparing the Power Supply

You can power the camcorder using a battery pack or directly using the supplied AC adapter. If you connect the

AC adapter to the camcorder while a battery pack is attached, the camcorder will draw power from the power

outlet.

Using a Battery Pack

You can power the camcorder using the supplied BP-828 Battery Pack or the optional BP-820 Battery Pack.

Both battery packs are compatible with Intelligent System so you can check the approximate remaining battery

usage time (in minutes) on the screen. For more accurate readings, when using a battery pack for the first time,

charge it fully and then use the camcorder until the battery pack is completely exhausted.

Charging the Battery Pack

Charge battery packs using the supplied CA-946 AC Adapter.

1 Make sure the power switch is set to OFF.

2 Connect the AC adapter's DC plug to the camcorder's DC IN

terminal.

3 Connect the power cord to the AC adapter.

4 Plug the power cord into a power outlet.

5 Attach the battery pack to the camcorder.

• Press the battery pack softly into the battery attachment unit

and slide it forward until it clicks in place.

• The POWER/CHG indicator will illuminate in red while the

battery is charging. The indicator will go out when charging is

completed. If the POWER/CHG indicator starts flashing, refer to

Troubleshooting (A 129).

7 When charging has completed, disconnect the AC adapter in the

order shown in the illustration.

To remove the battery pack

1 Slide the BATTERY RELEASE switch in the direction of the arrow

and hold it pressed down.

2 Slide the battery pack down and then pull it out.

Preparing the Power Supply

IMPORTANT

• Do not connect to the AC adapter any product that is not expressly recommended for use with this

camcorder.

• Turn off the camcorder before connecting or disconnecting the AC adapter. After you turn off the camcorder,

important data is updated on the SD card. Be sure to wait until the green POWER/CHG indicator goes out.

• When using the AC adapter, do not fix it permanently to one place as this may cause a malfunction.

• To prevent equipment breakdowns and excessive heating, do not connect the supplied AC adapter to voltage

converters for overseas travels or special power sources such as those on aircraft and ships, DC-AC inverters,

etc.

NOTES

• We recommend charging the battery pack in temperatures between 10 °C and 30 °C (50 °F and 86 °F). If

either the ambient temperature or the battery pack’s temperature is outside the range of approx. 0 °C to 40 °C

(32 °F to 104 °F), charging will not start.

• The battery pack will be charged only when the camcorder is off.

• If the power supply was disconnected while charging a battery pack, make sure the POWER/CHG indicator

has gone out before restoring the power supply.

• If remaining battery time is an issue, you can power the camcorder using the AC adapter so the battery pack

will not be consumed.

• For approximate charging times and recording times with a fully charged battery pack, refer to the Reference

Tables (A 147, 147).

• Charged battery packs continue to discharge naturally. Therefore, charge them on the day of use, or the day

before, to ensure a full charge.

• We recommend that you prepare battery packs to last 2 to 3 times longer than you think you might need.

• For handling precautions regarding the battery pack, refer to Battery Pack (A 139).

Checking the Remaining Battery Charge

With the camcorder turned off, press the BATT. INFO button to display for about 5 seconds a screen showing

the approximate battery charge level and an estimate of the remaining recording time. Note that if the battery

charge is too low, the battery information screen may not appear.

Preparing the Camcorder

20

Preparing the Camcorder

This section covers the basic preparations for the camcorder such as attaching the lens hood, adjusting the

viewfinder and LCD screen, and adjusting the grip belt.

IMPORTANT

• Be careful not to drop the camcorder when attaching, removing or adjusting the various accessories. Using a

table or other stable surface is recommended.

Using the Lens Hood and Lens Cap

While recording, the supplied lens hood with lens barrier is

effective for reducing stray light that can be the cause of lens

flare and ghost images. Additionally, closing the lens barrier

can help prevent fingerprints and dirt accumulation on the

lens.

To carry/transport the camcorder or store it after use,

remove the lens hood and place the lens cap back on the

camcorder.

1 Remove the lens cap.

• The lens cap and lens hood cannot be used

simultaneously.

2 Place the lens hood on the front of the lens so that

the groove on the lens hood is aligned with the top of

the lens (

햲), and then turn the lens hood clockwise

until it stops with a click

(햳).

• Be careful not to deform the lens hood.

• Make sure that the lens hood is aligned with the thread.

To remo ve t h e l e ns hood

1Press and hold the lens hood release button and turn

the lens hood counterclockwise.

2 Place the lens cap back on the lens.
