If you place on a tripod, the stabilizer will turn off. give it a focal point, then when you move, the stabilizer will fix on the focal point to reduce shaking. Canon also removed one of the SD card slots (older models had 2). With built-in memory up to 32 GB, and a single slot for another 32 GB, you could record up to 24 hours of HD footage (at 720p).
