With the ES8600, fading light doesn't mean an end to the day's recording. Thanks to the built-in video light, you'll get clear, colorful images even in complete darkness! You don't have to worry about carrying and connecting any extra equipment.
Image Stabilizer
A high quality image stabilization system corrects camera shake instantly, giving you smooth, stable pictures. It enables you to record shake-free images, even on long telephoto shots without a tripod.
Photo Mode
The ES8600's Photo Mode lets you record still images with sound for approximately seven seconds.
FlexiZone AF/AE
Because your subjects will often be off center and you will encounter less than ideal shooting conditions, Canon developed the exclusive FlexiZone AF/AE. Simply use the FlexiZone controller to align the "FlexiZone" in the viewfinder with your subject. You'll achieve perfect focus and exposure anywhere within the frame.
