Stabilizer
Until now, optical image
stabilizers have used solely a gyro sensor
to detect camcorder vibration (the data
from which controls a vari-angle prism that
continuously corrects the path of the
incoming light). SuperRange goes one
step further by examining the image
after
it is received by the CCD, and detecting
any low-frequency vibrations missed by
the gyro. This data is fed-back to
accelerate and refine the movement of the
vari-angle prism. This greatly improves
performance for low frequency vibration,
resulting in the most advanced optical
image stabilization available today. This
feature is found only on Canon's optical
Image Stabilized 16X zoom lens.

Adapter
The EF adapter allows you to attach
Canon EOS 35mm camera lenses to the
XL1
s . This is especially helpful for
telescopic imaging such as sports,
wildlife, surveillance and astronomy
because the image magnification of any
35mm lens is increased 7.2X when
mounted onto the XL1
s .
