Canon announced the release of a new DC line DVD camcorders that are supporting the miniSD Memory Card. All the models will have miniSD slots except of the DC100. This is a move from the camcorder producer to smaller memory cards since normally it uses the standard SD Memory Card on its products. This move is proof of the fact that the miniSD’s storage capacity, transfer speed and price are caching up to the SD Memory Card.
