What’s in the Box?
When it comes to supplies, the DC220 (Review, Specs, $318) gets the shaft:
-CA-570 Compact Power Adapter (with cord)
-BP-208 Battery Pack
-STV-250N Stereo Video Cable
-IFC-300PCU USB Cable
-Digital Video Solution Disc

No DVD-R or DVD-RW disc, no remote, and no DVD editing software. Point and shooters unite!

Other Features (2.0)
Markers - For those who like even composition in their shooting, the DC220 (Review, Specs, $318) offers screen markers. Canon offers a single horizontal center line or a nine pane grid screen. Both are available in either gray or white to match the brightness or darkness of the shot.

Digital Picture Effects - The DC220 (Review, Specs, $318) is equipped with some wicked awesome digital effects: fade-t, wipe, black and white, sepia, art, and mosaic.

Quick Start - The quick start function acts as a brief state of hibernation for the DC220 (Review, Specs, $318). When Quick Start is pressed, the DC220 immediately shuts the camcorder off. When pressed again, the DC220 springs right into action.
