The Canon XH A1s was a former FilmSoc camera, bought by the society sometime in 2009. Following the failure of [[hist:FilmSoc]] to re-ratify in 2014, the camera was kept by YUSU for the purposes of filming meetings and events. Like the [[Sony HVR-HD1000E]] cameras, it recorded at 1440x1080i50 ([[w:anamorphic|anamorphic]]) onto [[w:HDV|HDV]] tape for capture, and does live video out over a 'proprietary' component connector (HD/SD) or a BNC composite connector (SD). | The Canon XH A1s was a former FilmSoc camera, bought by the society sometime in 2009.

Due to lack of usage, lack of accessories (no tapes, no charger - both of which we have many of), and the fact that we'd be asking to borrow it a lot anyway, the camera was later given to YSTV to look after. In return, we got to use the camera whenever YUSU didn't need it (which was pretty much 99% of the time) - making it a third usable HD camera for pre-recorded shoots. This was an informal agreement in place between YSTV and Student Activities Officer (and ex-Station Director) [[hist:Chris Wall|Chris Wall]]. | Due to lack of usage, lack of accessories (no tapes, no charger - both of which we have many of), and the fact that we'd be asking to borrow it a lot anyway, the camera was later given to YSTV to look after.
